About JoMario

JoMario Rivera is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. He uses straightforward, practical methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other everyday struggles. He speaks English and Spanish and offers sessions online through a variety of formats.

JoMario emphasizes a collaborative, down-to-earth style. He focuses on what a person can do now to feel better. He draws on several proven approaches to build coping skills, improve mood, and strengthen communication.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to be practical and focused on the goals each person brings. Before each plan is set, JoMario listens closely to personal history and current challenges. He then blends strategies from approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to match what the person needs.

He also uses client-centered work and motivational interviewing to support motivation and self-direction. JoMario has three years of experience working with common concerns such as parenting stress, relationship challenges, addiction, trauma, grief, and mood disorders. He also addresses specific areas like ADHD, chronic illness, multicultural concerns, and life purpose.

His practice is designed to be adaptable to different life situations. Sessions are offered via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. New clients complete a short questionnaire to get matched and then schedule based on availability.

Costs vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on learning to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then taking actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and teaches specific skills to shift unhelpful patterns, which is useful for stress, mood issues, and sleep problems.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. JoMario listens to each person's goals and preferences and recommends a mix of methods when helpful. The process is collaborative so the plan can change as progress is made or needs shift.

Online sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when video isn't possible, and live chat or text-based messaging can help between appointments or for people who prefer typing. These options aim to provide flexibility and consistent access to support while using the therapist's chosen methods.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.
