Hello! My name is Jonathan Caballero, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I received my BA in Psychology from Texas State University, and my MA in Counseling from St. Edward's University in Austin, TX. While in Austin, my work was primarily focused on gender dysphoria, coming out, and other issues specific to the LGBTQ+ community. I enjoy working with parents who may have a child who identifies as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, and might have difficulty accepting their child as they are due to fear, cultural conflicts, or a lack of understanding. I can help educate you and guide you throughout your journey of discovery. I also have extensive experience and strong interest in working with trauma, depression, anxiety, and problem associated with life transitions. My approach is experience driven and real. I tend to stay away from clinical jargon and try my best to form organic and trusting relationships with my clients. Therapy should not be frightening, and I do my best to provide my clients with a sense of calmness throughout the therapeutic process.

Welcome. I know how difficult it is to seek mental health assistance, and am so grateful that you were able to recognize your need for professional health. This shows a level of awareness that many never acknowledge. I hope I am able to assist you in obtaining the kind of life you are seeking by working through the issues you are currently experiencing. I have been working in the Mental Health field since I graduated with my Master’s of Arts in Clinical Psychology in 2006. I graduated from The University of Texas-Pan American, which is now The University of Texas-RGV. I have worked with a diverse population. I have worked with elderly individuals in nursing homes as they prepared for the end of their lives. I have worked with children as young as 3 years of age through adulthood. I understand what it is like to experience mental health issues, including, self-injury and thoughts of suicide. I also understand what it feels like to be a client in the therapeutic relationship. I work well with individuals experiencing depression and/or anxiety but welcome any and all issues as they develop. I work hard to help build the therapeutic relationship and foster trust and caring, as these are the building blocks of any relationship. I look forward to working with you and building strong skill sets to assist you throughout your lifetime.

My practice offers every client a safe space to share and process the challenges of living. I purposely focus on clients’ needs and concerns. I use a variety of modalities from cognitive behavioral therapies to trauma informed care to help clients achieve their therapeutic goals. Psychotherapy is a process and as a practitioner, my goal is to help clients experience life more favorably. My role is to help guide you through your unique transition. What you feel and think is important to your worldview. Finding the words to express those thoughts and feelings mindfully may cause some anxiety, depression, or a sense of not feeling like yourself. Together we can explore ways to make those challenges make sense. When you’re ready, let’s talk.

After many years of experience, I find myself pulling from a variety of therapeutic modalities depending on the needs of the individuals I serve.

I believe the answers to many life questions and issues can be found inside ourselves and that they can more easily be tapped into when we engage in a trusting therapeutic relationship.

I encourage you to reach out if this is the kind of therapeutic relationship you are looking for and if not, I wish you all the best and congratulate you on your progress toward self-care.

I am a Doctor of Behavioral Health, a Licensed Professional Counselor, and a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist. I am licensed to practice in Texas and Colorado. I have worked with clients suffering from stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and those struggling to cope with life changes. I have experience working with severely mentally ill patients in a psychiatric emergency treatment center and a community behavioral health clinic. I have spent the majority of my time, however, in private practice. My clients range in age from 13 to 99! I enjoy helping people from all walks of life. Many people come to me because they are suffering from anxiety. It seems like COVID really pushed a lot of people over the edge, especially those who were already struggling with relationships or mental health issues. Panic attacks, depression, sleep disorders, and mood swings are common issues I see in clients. A lot of moms used to have a glass of wine at night and now many are admitting to needing a whole bottle! Many people tell me they feel fearful of things that are happening in the world and do not know how to cope with feeling out of control. Others tell me that they are struggling financially or dealing with health issues. I have had many teens tell me that they feel suicidal and hopeless. I have also seen an increase in those struggling with gender dysphoria and relationship issues. A lot of my older clients are sad about the world they will be leaving to their children. I understand and empathize with all of these situations! From OCD to PTSD, there really isn't much that I haven't encountered as a therapist. Veterans, homeless, addicts, abusers, victims, parents, children, CEOs, athletes, cancer patients, EMS workers, young and old, rich and poor... you name it...I have worked with people from all walks of life. What I can say is that I bring the same level of compassionate care to everyone I encounter. There is no judgment. It is humbling to realize that for many people, I am the one person they feel safe confiding in, and I take that trust very seriously. Regardless of the issues and their severity, I work closely with every client to help find solutions that make life more manageable and enjoyable. I believe that every person needs a toolbox that is full of ideas and strategies for coping with the stressors of life. As the saying goes, if all you have is a hammer, then everything will look like a nail. There are plenty of other tools out there, and when you own them, it is so empowering! Soon, you will be building and creating the life that you want for yourself! You are unique, valuable, and worthy of healthy relationships, happiness, and love. I believe that you are the expert of your life and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey!
