About Anique
Anique Gonzalez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing from Texas. She draws on a mix of practical counseling tools to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship strain. Her approach is straightforward and focused on what can change now, not on complex jargon.
Anique earned a master’s degree in counseling from Texas A&M University, a CACREP accredited program, and has six years of clinical experience. She has worked in outpatient, inpatient, and personal settings, which gives her a broad view of how people cope in different situations.
Background and approach
In sessions she uses client-centered methods to build trust and set goals at a pace that feels right. She also brings Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Solution-focused and motivational techniques help people find small steps that produce real movement.
Her work often focuses on everyday struggles like low self-esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue alongside more significant concerns such as trauma and abuse. She emphasizes practical skills and steady progress rather than quick fixes. People who meet with her can expect clear guidance, collaborative goal-setting, and an emphasis on resilience.
The therapy process is tailored to each person’s goals so they can build better patterns and make sustainable changes.
How her approaches translate to online work
Anique often uses client-centered therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy during online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s concerns and setting goals at a comfortable pace, which helps people feel heard even over video or text. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with the person about needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend methods to try together. That plan can change as progress is made so the work stays aligned with what’s helping most.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats provide flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited travel options and make it easier to fit steady work into daily life. Sessions can focus on skill-building, short goal-oriented steps, or deeper emotional processing depending on what the person prefers and what the therapist and client agree will help most.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Motivational Interviewing
A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
