About Alfonso
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 9 years of experience, Alfonso Holmes helps people address stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and relationship concerns. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide sessions. Alfonso works with issues related to self-esteem, grief, anger, career and workplace problems, and LGBT and sexuality concerns.
Alfonso sees each person as the expert on their life and starts by listening to what matters most. He helps people name their priorities, notice patterns that get in the way, and try small changes to test what works. Sessions focus on practical steps alongside reflection, not long-term theory talks.
In early meetings he clarifies goals and builds a plan that fits the person’s daily life. He uses CBT to spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, mindfulness to slow down stressful reactions, and motivational interviewing to strengthen commitment to change. Solution-Focused techniques are used to identify immediate, workable steps.
Alfonso frames work as collaborative and concrete. He offers straightforward tools for managing anxiety, cravings, or workplace stress. He also addresses communication problems and codependency by teaching specific skills people can use right away.
People who want clear, action-oriented sessions tend to do well with his approach. He asks questions, assigns doable exercises, and checks progress each visit. To begin, visitors are asked to complete the platform matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that increase distress and testing small changes to see what helps. Online sessions can use worksheets, thought records, and stepwise behavioral experiments that are easy to review together during a visit.Mindfulness Therapy teaches short practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment noticing. In remote sessions Alfonso can coach brief breathing or grounding exercises and then discuss how those practices fit into daily routines.
Motivational Interviewing centers on exploring ambivalence and strengthening motivation for change. It involves open questions, reflective listening, and planning small steps. This approach is helpful for addictions, workplace changes, or any goal where a person needs to build commitment.
Deciding which approach to use is a joint process. Alfonso will ask about a person’s goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they choose methods and adapt them over time based on progress and feedback.
The therapist’s biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, reduce travel time, or keep check-ins brief when schedules are tight. Therapists commonly adapt exercises so they work well in remote visits and focus on practical strategies people can use between appointments.
