About Luis
Luis keeps sessions straightforward and focused. He uses practical tools from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes. He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when they fit the situation.
Luis has worked with people who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse and supports those coping with life changes like separation, adoption or parenthood. He pays attention to family of origin issues, attachment concerns, and the particular stresses some first responders face.
In sessions he listens first, then tailors a plan that matches each person’s goals and pace. Conversations can include skill practice, values-based work, or guided reflection depending on what helps most. He avoids labeling people by diagnosis and focuses on practical steps toward better daily functioning.
He welcomes English-speaking clients in Texas and also accepts international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.
How Luis uses evidence-based approaches in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small, committed actions toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. This approach can help with life transitions, anxiety, and decisions that come up during pregnancy and childbirth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns like sleep disruption or anxiety. It is useful for mood, stress, and coping with everyday challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful when emotions feel intense or relationships are strained.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, preferences, and evolving needs. Therapy can shift over time as challenges change or progress is made.
