About Jorge

Jorge Yunes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 15 years of experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and a wide range of personal and life challenges. He emphasizes practical support and partners with clients to find realistic steps forward.

Jorge speaks English and brings a calm, straightforward presence to sessions. He works from the belief that people know their own story and already carry strengths to build on.

Background and approach

Sessions usually start with what matters most to the client now and move toward small, achievable changes. Jorge aims to make therapy feel like problem solving rather than a long lecture. He encourages clear goals and regular check-ins about progress.

Jorge blends client-centered approaches with cognitive behavioral techniques. That means he listens closely and adapts to each person while also introducing tools to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors. This mix can help with mood, worry, sleep, relationships, and daily coping skills.

He has particular experience with parenting concerns, family issues, and challenges that touch identity and relationships. Additional focuses include ADHD, autism and Asperger Syndrome, grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns. Jorge also addresses issues such as fatherhood, communication problems, and blended family dynamics.

Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and scheduling follows based on therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches fit into online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person where they are. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what is said, and helps people identify their strengths and priorities. This approach works well when someone needs space to tell their story and decide what matters most.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change thinking and behavior patterns. It often includes short exercises, homework, and steps to shift negative thoughts and habits. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can shift over time as progress is made and new concerns come up.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, let people connect from home, and offer different modes of communication for comfort and convenience. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for each format so work continues between sessions.

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.
