About Orlando
Orlando Gonzalez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 14 years of clinical experience. He helps people facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting stress, and mood challenges. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
He uses clear, structured methods to address daily problems and recurring patterns. That can mean noticing thoughts that increase worry, testing different ways of handling conflict, or building small routines that reduce stress. He also works with issues such as grief, intimacy concerns, anger, ADHD, and changes like separation or midlife reassessment.
Orlando adapts a straightforward, client-centered approach. He invites people to set the topics they want to work on. The focus is on practical steps and decisions the person is willing to try between sessions.
His toolkit includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to track thoughts and behaviors, Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas for handling closeness and attachment, and Solution-Focused methods to set clear, short-term goals. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone wants help strengthening their own reasons to change.
He has experience addressing parenting challenges, communication problems, impulsivity, infidelity, isolation, career concerns, and self-esteem. He has also worked with parents involved in child protective systems and has done home studies related to child placement and adoption. Clients choose which issues to raise and work through them at a practical pace.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Orlando uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going. CBT sessions focus on practical steps, worksheets, and small experiments to try between meetings. He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person's goals and preferences and keeps the pace set by the client.He may use Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques when the primary problem involves closeness or attachment issues, helping people recognize emotions and try new ways of connecting. Together the approaches offer a mix of skills work, short goals, and attention to feelings so progress stays concrete and measurable.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He discusses options with each person and decides together which methods fit their goals and circumstances. That collaborative choice can change as people make progress or face new challenges.
