Miguel holds the LPC credential in Texas and brings a background of military service and fitness-focused leadership to his clinical work, emphasizing resilience, structure, and practical coping strategies.

How Miguel’s Approaches Translate to Online Care



Miguel commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach focuses on practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. He also draws from Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard as they explore goals and values. When emotion regulation or intense interpersonal conflict is present, he incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach distress tolerance, mindfulness, and effective communication.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Miguel works with each person to consider their needs, preferences, and goals and then adapts methods over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for their situation.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to attend regularly, practice skills between meetings, and fit therapy into busy lives while maintaining continuity of care across locations.
