About Gloria

Gloria Gonzalez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults and younger clients facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, parenting strain, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Gloria focuses on practical tools clients can use when life feels overwhelming. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's concerns and values. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

In sessions she helps people talk through specific problems like parenting challenges, workplace stress, and relationship conflicts. She also supports those coping with loss, changes in life circumstances, or consequences from substance use. Conversations tend to focus on clear strategies and small, doable steps clients can try between meetings.

Gloria has experience with families involved with child protective services and supporting people through divorce, separation, or blended family issues. She also addresses body image, codependency, attachment concerns, and the stress caregivers often carry. Her Spanish language option is available for people who prefer to speak in Spanish.

People who work with Gloria can expect straightforward, skills-focused sessions that aim to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How sessions work

Approaches and how online sessions can help

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on what matters to the person in front of the therapist. It involves listening closely, reflecting concerns back, and shaping sessions around the client’s values and priorities. This approach can help people who need space to sort out feelings and set goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect mood and behavior. It uses practical exercises and experiments to change unhelpful thinking patterns and coping responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and problems that repeat in daily life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for regulating strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication. Those skills can be useful for people who want concrete techniques to manage temper, reduce impulsive reactions, or handle relationship conflict.

Picking the best approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will talk about goals, try methods, and adjust the plan together. That collaborative process helps match tools to what actually helps an individual in day-to-day situations.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions so they fit into everyday life and the goals you want to address.
