About Victor
Victor Garcia is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Texas. He has 13 years of experience helping people manage anxiety, stress, grief, and relationship and intimacy concerns. Victor focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier and more connected in daily life.
Before moving into independent practice, he provided mental health services in shelters for survivors of family violence and sexual assault, in substance abuse recovery settings, and at community mental health agencies.
Background and approach
That background shaped his interest in trauma, addiction, and relationship patterns. He also has experience working with employee assistance programs and physician health programs. Victor’s approach mixes listening with teaching and action.
He uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors. He also draws on emotionally-focused methods and mindfulness practices to help people notice feelings and respond differently. In sessions he aims to be kind, patient, and straightforward.
He helps clients name patterns, try small changes, and build coping skills. He also works with issues like body image, abandonment and attachment concerns, codependency, and problems tied to family of origin. Sessions are offered in English and Victor accepts international clients.
He currently offers online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging through the platform. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step connect people to his practice.
Approaches that guide online care
Victor uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors that reduce anxiety and improve sleep. CBT focuses on clear, practical steps people can practice between sessions to change how they feel and act.He also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and describe feelings that drive relationship patterns. EFT is useful when the goal is to improve emotional connection and reduce cycles of withdrawal or conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Victor collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level, and he adjusts plans as progress is made. That collaboration helps shape homework, pacing, and which tools are emphasized.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging can serve as brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel routines while keeping the focus on practical change.
