My name is Miguel Lopez and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. I provide telehealth therapy all across Texas. I received my Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio where I received the knowledge, experience and skills working with an array of individuals seeking counseling services. I have worked with individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, sexual identity and gender related issues, trauma, grief and loss. My counseling style is Eclectic. This means I take from multiple therapeutic modalities and incorporate them for each specific client need. Not one size fits all. The modalities I am currently most comfortable and knowledgeable in are Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and Existential Therapy. My goal as your counselor is to provide you with the building blocks and skills needed to work through the day to day issues we face. It’s nice to have extra tools to add to your tool belt. I will assist you by providing you with questions and reflections to become introspective, insightful and mindful of who you are and what you want; as well as, challenge you to overcome undesired behaviors and increase desired ones. I utilize empathy and humor in my sessions to help build a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients. I am a person who loves to learn new things and build many interests and hobbies. This allows me to adapt to my client as best as I can and learn from them as much as they learn skills from me. Outside of counseling, you may find me gardening, knitting way too much, bowling, and enjoying the company of my partner, two cats and dog. :)

I have been working in the mental health field since the early 2000s. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a PhD in Counselor Education. I've worked with various clients struggling with a multitude of issues including personal, marital, and family issues, domestic violence, and challenging parenting situations. I take a philosophical approach to the work I do with my clients and I encourage my clients to begin developing habits and routines in their behaviors and in their thought patterns that will have beneficial long term effects on their lives and their relationships.

It takes courage to be vulnerable enough to ask for help. You've already taken your first steps towards growth simply by identifying that something feels wrong and looking for a solution. My main focus as a counselor is to help my clients understand themselves, as well as their thoughts, feelings and behaviors. In this understanding can come acceptance change, and healing. During our sessions you will have the opportunity to build on your strength and explore new skills, insights and solutions as determined by your needs and preferences. I am Licensed Professional Counselor that practices in Texas. I have 10 years of post graduate experience which includes graduate level counseling experiences, school setting, community setting, private practice and a non-profit organization. My counseling goal is to work with each client to develop a positive, focused and action oriented plan to address problems efficiently and effectively. Should you feel need of urgent help or that you are in a crisis at anytime during our work together, please call 1-800-273-TALK 24 hours a day or 911. This forum does not provide any type of emergency services, so I want to be sure you know who to contact if you need immediate help.

I am a counselor who has worked with individuals, couples, families, children and groups for the last 30 years. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns and challenges. Relationship issues --with spouse, parent, child, friend, boss, self or God, are often a motivation for seeking help. I have helped many clients with the difficulty of life transitions of all kinds, including grieving. While my therapy style is varied and personal, and I am trained in many of the various approaches to therapy, I believe in the importance of treating the whole person. My goal is always to provide a warm and safe environment to explore those difficult issues in a way that brings healing or resolution or peace.

My name is Marquita Turner I have been Licensed as a Professional Counselor in the state of Louisiana for 8 years. I recently obtained licensure in Texas as well. This work of helping others find peace and purpose in their lives feels like my innate purpose. Therapy is not always easy or enjoyable but if done correctly it will bring about a desirable change. I view the therapeutic process as teamwork for clients and myself. We become equal partners in identifying, processing and developing person-centered solutions to the issues you are facing. I pride myself on being a great listener. This skill has helped me build rapport and trust with clients which both aid the effectiveness of the therapeutic process. I have worked in various mental health settings that afforded me the ability to treat most common and uncommon disorders. I can treat all DSM-5 diagnosis. At the end of this process it is my hope that you are closer to your authentic self and operating from your own place of purpose.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas and a certified Trauma Sensitive Yoga facilitator, offering a unique and holistic approach to healing. I also have a background as a Health and Wellbeing Coach, which allows me to incorporate a variety of tools and modalities into our work together. If you're interested, I can weave trauma-sensitive yoga into our sessions to support emotional healing, grounding, and relaxation—an offering that sets me apart and is beneficial for those dealing with PTSD, military trauma, or sexual abuse trauma. I believe in meeting you exactly where you are. During our sessions, I will actively listen, provide a nonjudgmental space, and adapt our treatment plan to fit your unique needs. The first session will focus on getting to know you, discussing your goals, and understanding your past experiences with therapy. I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you challenge unhelpful thought patterns and create lasting behavior changes. From there, we will set actionable goals, track progress, and adapt as needed. My goal is to empower you to take control of your life, making space for healing, growth, and positive change. Together, we will work to integrate your values into your goals, helping you to achieve a more balanced and fulfilling life. If you're ready to begin your journey, I would love to walk alongside you.
