About Us

Our History

The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Treatment was founded by Suzanne Mouton-Odum, Ph.D., a lifetime Houstonian who has been practicing psychology in the Houston area since 1995. After years of independent practice, Dr. Mouton-Odum created Psychology Houston which houses a group of expertly-trained psychologists, all focused on providing evidence-based treatments for people suffering with various psychological problems.

All of the providers at Psychology Houston are trained to treat anxiety, OCD, depression, hair pulling and skin picking, grief, relationship issues, trauma, and other psychological difficulties experienced by children, adolescents, and adults. Although CBT interventions are scientifically grounded, they are used in a supportive environment where the relationship between therapist and client is primary. The goals of treatment are typically to work with clients to change specific thoughts, feelings, and behaviors resulting in more adaptive coping and improved emotional well-being.

Shortly after launching Psychology Houston, Dr. Mouton-Odum, and her colleague Dr. Tyson Reuter opened the HABIT Clinic (Houston Area Behavioral Institute for Tourette) to treat individuals with Tic Disorders. The HABIT Clinic utilizes a non-medication, behavioral approach that is targeted at reducing tics.

Psychology Houston was founded in 2016 with the goal of providing top notch, evidence-based care to all of Houston.
