About Alberto
Alberto Figueroa is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Texas with 12 years of experience. He focuses on clear, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, motivation struggles, and addiction concerns. He offers help in English and Spanish and aims to make the first step feel manageable for anyone considering therapy.
Alberto uses a straightforward, respectful style in sessions. He listens first, then works with each person to set goals and decide on steps forward.
Background and approach
Conversations are shaped around what matters most to the client rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. His approach draws from several evidence-informed methods. He uses cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and change unhelpful thinking.
Mindfulness and acceptance strategies help people manage difficult feelings without getting stuck. Client-centered care keeps the client's values and priorities central to each session. Alberto has supported people through relationship strain, parenting stress, career transitions, and trauma-related concerns.
He also addresses issues like sleep and eating problems, anger, ADHD, and caregiver stress. Sessions are practical, with homework or skills to try between meetings when that fits the client’s goals. People who prefer collaborative, goal-focused work tend to fit well with his style.
He aims to create a respectful space where clients can try new coping tools and make steady progress. Signing up starts with a short questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
How his approaches work online
Alberto often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test different behaviors. CBT sessions focus on practical steps and experiments that you can try between meetings to reduce anxiety or change habit patterns.He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people accept difficult emotions while clarifying personal values and committed actions. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety, grief, and situations where people feel stuck and want to reconnect with what matters most.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Alberto will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adapt techniques based on what seems most helpful. He treats the first few sessions as a time to explore options and set an individualized plan together.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let you work face-to-face from wherever you are in Texas, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and try different ways of working to see what fits best.
