About Pedro
Pedro’s work centers on helping people who feel overwhelmed by the competing demands of personal life, family, children, work, and unexpected events. He recognizes how focusing on others while neglecting oneself can increase stress, and how past trauma can intensify those pressures until daily life feels unmanageable. His approach emphasizes healing, strength-building, and identifying barriers to healthier patterns of behavior.
Throughout his career he has assisted individuals with concerns such as depression, anxiety, anger management, pain management, young adult issues, post-traumatic stress, immigration-related counseling, divorce, substance use, living with HIV, and cultivating healthier relationships. He maintains a particular focus on young adults navigating major life decisions, the uncertainty of the future, and the stress of transitioning into adulthood.
Pedro earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Mental Health from the University of Texas at San Antonio. He combines that academic foundation with long-term clinical experience to support clients in setting goals and developing practical coping skills.
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s own goals and values guide the work. This approach helps people build self-awareness, confidence, and clearer direction when facing life transitions or relationship challenges.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is practical and skills-oriented, often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with daily challenges.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused method that helps people find their own reasons and motivation for change. It can be especially effective for addressing ambivalence around issues like substance use, commitment to goals, or lifestyle changes.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Pedro works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to determine which methods best match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Pedro includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, offer continuity when in-person visits are difficult, and allow therapists and clients to focus on meaningful progress together.
