About Miguel

Miguel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who offers telehealth therapy across the state. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, LGBT and gender-related questions, and life changes. He also supports those dealing with low self-esteem, anger, bipolar symptoms, and issues around attachment or communication.

Miguel uses a direct but warm style in sessions. He asks reflective questions and offers practical exercises people can try between meetings.

Background and approach

Humor and empathy are part of his approach when appropriate. Sessions aim to help people notice patterns and build skills to manage day-to-day problems. His counseling draws from several methods rather than one fixed model.

Miguel blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential ideas, and relationship tools adapted from the Gottman Method. He tailors methods to the person and their goals instead of using the same plan for everyone. Clients can expect to practice coping strategies, work on communication, and address painful memories or identity concerns.

Miguel emphasizes small, achievable changes so progress feels manageable. He also offers coaching-style guidance when people want help setting and reaching practical goals. Outside the workday he enjoys gardening, knitting, bowling, and spending time with his partner and pets.

His background includes a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio, and four years of clinical experience working with a range of concerns across Texas.

Approaches Miguel names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Online approaches that focus on emotion and action

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name emotions and how those emotions shape relationships and reactions. It can be useful for people trying to understand strong feelings or improve how they connect with others. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, accepting space where the person sets the pace and the counselor reflects and supports personal exploration. This approach suits those who want a listening-focused environment to find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress when people want concrete tools to reduce symptoms or manage everyday challenges.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences rather than using one fixed method. That means strategies may shift over time as progress and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick coaching, or keeping momentum between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
