About Gerri

Gerri Dominguez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with six years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, sleep difficulties, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, and other life changes. She also focuses on jealousy, obsessive-compulsive patterns, phobias, and process or sex-related addictions.

Gerri uses a practical approach that draws on several methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, existential ideas, and mindfulness techniques. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, trying different responses, and building concrete skills for day-to-day life. She aims to help people manage symptoms and make usable changes rather than rely on jargon or vague promises.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She talks with each person about what they want to change and picks strategies that fit those goals. If the conversation needs to look at past events or focus on current patterns, she will adjust the work to match the client's needs.

Gerri has experience across multiple settings, including individual and group work. That variety informs how she structures sessions and homework tasks. People can expect clear, step-by-step suggestions and practical exercises between meetings.

She accepts clients in English and from outside the United States. Before booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered so they meet your scheduling needs.

How CBT, ACT and DBT inform online sessions

Gerri uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. CBT work often includes tracking situations, testing beliefs, and practicing new responses between sessions to reduce symptoms like anxiety or insomnia.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to clarify values and build committed action. ACT helps when people feel stuck by focusing on small, value-guided steps rather than trying to eliminate difficult thoughts first. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that are useful for intense moods and relationship conflicts.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences, and then try methods that seem to fit. If something does not help, the plan is adjusted so sessions stay practical and focused on what you want to change.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weeknight or a short work break, allow quieter surroundings when possible, and let people focus on skills practice without commuting. Therapists and licensed professionals commonly use these sessions to assign exercises, review homework, and coach new behaviors in a straightforward way.
