About Wilfred
Wilfred Manyango is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. He uses a straightforward, person-focused approach to help people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and career challenges.

He centers the relationship with each person first. Sessions aim to create a trusting space where clients can talk through what feels overwhelming.
Background and approach
Wilfred listens, reflects, and helps people set realistic next steps they can try between meetings. Wilfred blends several approaches to match what a person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Solution-Focused Therapy targets concrete goals and small changes that add up. Motivational Interviewing supports commitment to change when someone feels unsure. He has worked with people from diverse backgrounds on issues such as trauma and abuse, domestic violence, family of origin problems, parenting and fatherhood concerns, and coping with major life changes.
Additional focus areas include abandonment, codependency, forgiveness, and immigration-related stress. Wilfred also brings over a decade of coaching experience in education and career planning. That background informs practical guidance for job, school, and transition-related concerns.
He aims to help people leave sessions with clear steps and regained confidence.
How Wilfred Uses Practical Therapies Online
Wilfred commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in online work. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety or low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to small, realistic steps that build momentum toward a specific goal.He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions collaborative. That means the therapist listens closely, reflects what matters most, and works with the person to choose methods that fit their goals. Together they decide whether CBT exercises, short-term goal work, or motivational conversations are the best next step.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when bandwidth and surroundings allow. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a quicker check-in during a work break. Live chat or messaging suit brief updates, on-the-go reflections, and people who prefer typing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to try different ways of working until the right fit is found.
