About Miguel

Miguel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with four years of clinical work. He offers telehealth therapy across Texas and focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and anger.

Miguel uses an eclectic counseling style and draws from several approaches to fit what each person needs. He emphasizes practical skills people can use day to day. Sessions include questions and reflections meant to increase self-understanding and prompt changes in behavior.

He trained at the University of Texas at San Antonio, earning a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. That program informed his work with people facing sexual identity and gender-related concerns, grief and loss, and other life transitions.

In practice he combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral ideas and elements of existential and emotionally-focused approaches. He aims to teach concrete strategies while also encouraging deeper reflection about values and relationships.

Miguel often brings lightness into sessions and uses humor alongside serious reflection. He describes therapy as a place to build skills and add tools people can use outside sessions. Outside work he enjoys gardening, knitting, bowling, and time with his partner and pets.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflection, and helping people name what matters to them. Online sessions can use this approach to explore values, relationship needs, and emotional patterns through guided conversation and feedback.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Applied online, CBT involves practical exercises, short skill-building homework, and clear techniques to reduce anger triggers or anxiety in daily life.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotional experiences that affect relationships. In remote sessions this can mean identifying interaction patterns and practicing new ways of responding to others from session to session.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Miguel will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He blends approaches when that helps address immediate problems and longer term patterns.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help fit sessions into a workday or a busy week. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or sessions that rely more on audio if bandwidth is limited. Ask about current session options when you arrange the first appointment.
