About Pedro
Pedro Ricardo Gonzalez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 22 years of clinical experience. He practices in Texas and communicates in both English and Spanish. He emphasizes practical goal-setting and works together with people to make steady, realistic changes.
He brings a long history in higher education, nonprofit programs, residential care, and independent practice. That range of settings shaped a flexible approach to different life stages and situations. He aims to meet people where they are and build clear, attainable steps toward their goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on everyday problems like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, grief, addiction, and career challenges. He also addresses issues such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, aging concerns, and family of origin problems. He uses plain language and concrete techniques so people know what to expect.
Clinically he uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness, narrative work, solution-focused strategies, and EMDR. Those approaches are mixed to match each person’s needs rather than following a single formula. He explains options and invites questions so people can choose what feels right.
Pedro works with individuals from varied cultural and religious backgrounds and values straightforward collaboration. He also accepts international clients and offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session.

Online support
How his approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what they say, and helps set goals together; this approach is useful for people needing a respectful, steady space to sort things out.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses concrete exercises and short assignments to shift unhelpful patterns and is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) involves structured processing of distressing memories and related reactions. It can be used when past events continue to cause strong emotional or physical responses, and sessions move at a pace chosen by the individual.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review options with each person and decide together which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. That collaborative planning helps tailor sessions to what matters most to the client.
Online therapy with video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can suit brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work from different locations.
