Miguel Lopez, LPC

Miguel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, depression, addictions, and issues around sexual identity. He also addresses intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem, and life transitions. Miguel speaks English and works with adults across a range of personal challenges, including concerns tied to attachment, body image, codependency, and gender dysphoria.

Miguel’s approach is practical and person-focused. He mixes methods to match each person's needs rather than using one fixed model. Sessions often include questions and reflections to prompt insight, along with concrete skills to change patterns and cope day to day.

He draws from Client-Centered Therapy to build a collaborative relationship and from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and reshape unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy and elements of the Gottman Method inform his work around relationship and intimacy struggles. Existential ideas help people find meaning during difficult changes.

In sessions Miguel uses empathy and light humor to make work feel less heavy. He offers short-term practical tools alongside deeper reflective work when that fits the person’s goals. He aims to help people leave with new skills they can use outside the session.

Miguel earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio. He provides telehealth services across Texas and brings four years of counseling experience to his practice.

How Miguel’s approaches translate to online work

Miguel often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship and listening closely to what matters most to the person. This helps people feel heard and steer sessions toward the issues they care about. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another common tool he uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior experiments to change day-to-day patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is used when relationship or intimacy concerns are central, helping people name and regulate emotions that affect connection.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Miguel will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt methods over time. This collaborative process aims to match practical tools with deeper reflection when needed.

The biography indicates Miguel provides telehealth therapy across Texas; please confirm the specific session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people try skill-based exercises and homework between meetings to reinforce progress.
