About Miguel
Miguel De la fuente is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, and bipolar challenges. He speaks English and Spanish and brings eight years of counseling experience to each session. Miguel draws on both clinical work and his own life experience to support people during hard seasons.
Miguel uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. He helps clients talk through painful memories, manage intense emotions, and rebuild daily routines that make life easier. He also supports people wrestling with attachment and abandonment concerns, communication and control problems, and recovery after disasters or trauma.
His approach is informed by client-centered care, cognitive behavioral work, dialectical skills, and deeper psychodynamic thinking. Sessions focus on what the client needs in the moment and on small, concrete steps that change how life feels day to day. Miguel aims to balance problem-solving with space to reflect on values and meaning.
Miguel has a background that includes military service and many years in health and fitness, and he often integrates practical wellness habits into therapy when helpful. He also brings spiritual considerations into sessions when clients want that included. His overall goal is to help people find resilience, clearer direction, and improved relationships.
People interested in starting are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability. International clients may be supported, and sessions are offered in both English and Spanish.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's experience and preferences. It emphasizes active listening, empathy, and helping the client set the pace and goals of therapy. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to be heard and to work through personal concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It uses practical exercises and small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT is useful for tackling day-to-day problems and building new coping habits.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for managing overwhelming emotions and improving relationships. It includes strategies for distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and clearer communication. DBT techniques can help people facing intense mood swings or conflict in close relationships.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and values. That may mean prioritizing skills practice one week and deeper reflection another week.
For practical matters, confirm which session formats Miguel currently offers before booking. Online counseling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people continue care when circumstances change, while sessions keep focus on concrete skills, emotional processing, and daily routines.
