Giovanni Castillo-Gomez, LPC

Giovanni Castillo-Gomez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people managing stress and anxiety. He also supports people facing addiction challenges, depression, low self-esteem, motivation struggles, and LGBTQ related issues. He keeps language simple and direct so parents and busy adults can understand the process quickly.

Giovanni approaches work by centering the client's own knowledge of their life. He believes people bring strengths that can be used to meet hard moments. In sessions he listens for practical patterns and helps turn small changes into steady progress.

With three years of professional experience he focuses on building short-term skills and clear next steps people can try between meetings. Conversations often include problem-solving, learning ways to reduce stress, and practicing strategies to improve confidence and motivation.

He aims to make the first steps less overwhelming. Giovanni encourages clients to set small goals and track what helps most in daily life. He notices what a person already does well and builds from there.

People who choose him can expect a straightforward style. Sessions focus on concrete tools, honest conversation, and planning doable steps forward. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

Practical approaches for online stress and anxiety work

Giovanni uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and behavior change. One common approach teaches practical coping skills for managing stress and anxiety, such as paced breathing, activity planning, and breaking problems into smaller steps. These tools aim to reduce immediate overwhelm and make situations easier to handle.

Another approach focuses on building confidence and motivation through small, achievable goals and tracking progress. This method helps people notice what works, strengthen self-esteem, and regain momentum when motivation is low. It is useful for depression, addiction recovery steps, and improving day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify which approaches fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. Clients and the therapist review what helps and adjust methods over time so sessions stay practical and relevant.

Confirm the available session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, avoid travel time, and check in during breaks or between activities. It can also allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when that better supports steady progress.
