    About Alfonso

    Alfonso Holmes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of clinical experience. He centers sessions on the person in front of him and looks for their strengths. He aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and respectful of each person’s pace.

    He describes therapy as a collaborative process. Conversations focus on clear goals like easing anxiety, handling stress, or managing grief. Alfonso uses practical methods to help people notice patterns, try small changes, and build on what already works for them.

    Motivational Interviewing is part of his approach. That means he helps people explore what matters most to them and find their own motivation for change. He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to connect thoughts and actions, and Mindfulness Therapy to foster present-moment awareness.

    Sessions often include straightforward tools for handling intense feelings, improving communication, and coping with workplace or relationship strain. Alfonso pays attention to how daily routines and habits affect mood and behavior. He helps people break problems into small, achievable steps and track progress over time.

    People who reach out for help with depression, addictions, self-esteem, or career worries can expect a calm, goal-oriented conversation. Alfonso works in English and practices in Texas. He welcomes questions about how his way of working might fit someone’s situation.

  2. Motivation, CBT, and Mindfulness for online care

    Alfonso blends Motivational Interviewing with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to shape remote sessions that focus on clear goals. Motivational Interviewing helps people explore what matters to them and build their own reasons for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers concrete strategies to try different responses. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and help with stress and anxiety.

    Finding the right mix of approaches is a shared task. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods feel most useful based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions may evolve as progress is made or as priorities shift, keeping the client's voice central to planning.

    The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy life and more consistent follow-up on small goals between meetings. Because session formats were not specified, confirm current session options before booking so you know how you will meet. Online work can make it easier to try short check-ins, practice skills between meetings, and bring real-life situations into conversation without promising any single format.
