Miguel Lopez , LPC

Miguel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing telehealth therapy throughout Texas. He earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio, where he developed clinical skills working with a wide range of people seeking counseling services. Miguel draws on that training to support individuals coping with depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, sexual identity and gender-related concerns, trauma, grief, and loss.

Miguel’s approach is intentionally eclectic - he tailors interventions to each person rather than using a single method for everyone. He frequently integrates Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Gestalt therapy, Client-Centered techniques, mindfulness practices, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Existential approaches to match a client’s needs and goals. His aim is to equip clients with practical skills and perspectives that help them manage day-to-day challenges and work toward lasting change.

In sessions he uses questions and reflective feedback to promote insight and self-awareness, and he balances empathy with a warm sense of humor to build a collaborative working relationship. Outside of his clinical work Miguel enjoys gardening, knitting, bowling, and spending time with his partner, two cats, and a dog.

Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Miguel Lopez commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his telehealth practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where the client’s experience guides the work - it helps with self-exploration, self-esteem, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is practical and often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. He also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy when addressing relationship dynamics and attachment issues, helping partners or family members understand and respond to emotional needs more effectively.

Miguel views finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He works with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and he adapts strategies over time based on what proves most helpful. Clients participate in shaping their treatment so it stays relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Miguel is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or mobility needs and allow clients to continue progress from home or other convenient locations while working with a licensed professional.
