About Miguel

Miguel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress and anxiety. He offers telehealth therapy across the state and speaks English. His approach aims to give simple, useful tools for day-to-day life so people can cope better with what comes up.

He listens with empathy and sometimes uses gentle humor to make conversations easier. Sessions focus on clear questions and reflections that help people see patterns and decide what they want to change. Miguel encourages practical steps and small skills people can use between sessions.

Miguel blends methods rather than using only one style. He draws on Client-Centered techniques to follow the person’s lead, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and shift thinking and behavior, and Emotionally-Focused ideas to look at relationship patterns. He adapts these approaches to each person’s needs.

He has four years of clinical experience and completed a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio. That training included work with people facing depression, grief, trauma, and questions about sexual identity and gender.

Outside of work he gardens, knits, bowls, and spends time with his partner, two cats, and a dog. Those personal interests shape a relaxed, curious style in sessions. If you want straightforward tools and a collaborative listener, he may be a fit.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person’s pace and priorities. In practice this means Miguel listens closely and helps people find their own solutions rather than directing them. It’s useful when someone needs acceptance and a clear space to sort out feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. Online sessions using CBT often involve noticing patterns, trying brief experiments between sessions, and practicing different ways of responding to stress or anxiety.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy examines patterns in close relationships and the emotions that drive them. When relationship concerns are central, this approach helps people recognize attachment patterns and try new ways of connecting.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Miguel will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, needs, and preferences. He adapts methods over time based on what is helping and what is not.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fewer travel barriers, which can make regular sessions simpler to maintain. Online work also lets people use short check-ins when needed or set longer weekly sessions to practice skills. Because session formats can change, confirm the current options before booking so you know what will fit into your routine.
