About Miguel
Miguel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and questions about sexual identity and gender. He also helps with addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, intimacy concerns, and major life changes. Miguel aims to give practical tools and clear steps to make day-to-day life feel more manageable.
Miguel trained at the University of Texas at San Antonio, where he earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. He draws on several therapy approaches rather than one fixed method. That lets him adapt to what each person needs in the moment. He relies on questions, reflections, and skills practice to help people gain more insight and take action.
In sessions he uses empathy and sometimes humor to build rapport. He teaches skills you can use between meetings and challenges unhelpful patterns when needed. He emphasizes self-awareness and practical change over abstract theory.
Miguel also works with topics such as attachment issues, body image, codependency, communication problems, blended family concerns, gender dysphoria, and aspects of kink and alternative sex culture. He brings a straightforward and curious style when addressing these subjects.
Outside of counseling, Miguel enjoys gardening, knitting, and bowling. He lives in Texas with his partner, two cats, and a dog. If you want to explore what might help next, he asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin the scheduling process.
How Miguel’s approaches shape online work
Miguel uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to you, which helps people feel heard and decide what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.He also draws from Emotionally-Focused Therapy when relationship issues come up. This approach helps people identify patterns in how they respond emotionally and practice new ways of relating that reduce conflict and increase connection.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Miguel talks with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggests ways to try different methods. He checks in and adjusts plans as therapy moves forward so the work stays relevant to what the client needs.
Confirm the exact session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. In general, online therapy can make appointments easier to fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can assign practical exercises between meetings and review progress on goals, which helps therapy translate into daily routines.
