About Alfonso

Alfonso Holmes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress and anxiety and helps people take the first steps toward feeling more in control. He frames the work as a partnership and treats clients as the experts in their own stories.

Alfonso uses practical talk and straightforward goals in sessions. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to examine thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. He also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice their experience and reduce reactivity in stressful moments.

Motivational Interviewing is part of his approach when clients want to change habits or face addictions. He also brings Solution-Focused Therapy into sessions to set clear, short-term goals and track small wins over time. These methods are chosen to match what a person needs, not to follow a single recipe.

People come to him for help with depression, grief, anger, relationship worries, self-esteem, career stress, workplace issues, and questions about sexuality or identity. He also works with concerns like codependency, communication problems, men's issues, and young adult challenges.

Alfonso practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English. He values steady progress and practical tools. To start, he invites people to take the first step and complete a brief matching questionnaire so they can schedule a session.

Practical approaches for online stress and anxiety work

Alfonso uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep stress and anxiety active. CBT sessions often focus on small experiments and concrete techniques to reduce worry and improve daily routines.

He also brings Mindfulness Therapy into online work, teaching simple practices to increase awareness of emotions and reduce reactivity. Mindfulness can be useful for managing intense feelings and building steadier focus during stressful days.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Alfonso works with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative discussion and plans can change as progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and mindfulness exercises for remote sessions so tools learned in a meeting are usable between appointments.
