About Luis
Luis Gonzales is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. He focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, or major life changes. He offers straightforward, respectful support in English and Spanish for adults seeking clearer thinking and steadier emotions.
He uses a mix of therapies to match each person’s needs. In sessions he often draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at emotions and attachment, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to examine thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
He also uses client-centered techniques and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and make different choices. His work includes individual and group settings across community mental health agencies, schools, and treatment facilities. That background gives him experience with substance use, trauma and abuse, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and a range of mood and personality issues.
He aims to build a respectful therapeutic relationship and to listen first before offering direction. Sessions can include talking through difficult memories, practicing new ways to respond to stress, and building skills for day-to-day coping. He also supports people dealing with chronic illness, communication problems, and feelings of isolation.
His style is practical and collaborative and focuses on small, usable steps toward relief. People who choose Luis can expect clear explanations, exercises linked to their goals, and options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. He encourages anyone ready to take a step toward change to start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Online support
How emotion work and practical skills translate online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and understand their emotional reactions and how those feelings shape relationships and behavior. It can be useful for addressing patterns tied to attachment, intense emotions, and long-standing hurt. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and supporting the person’s own goals and pace, which helps people feel heard and build trust.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods as needed. That collaborative process means techniques can shift over time as progress is made or new priorities emerge.
Online sessions offer flexibility and practical options for connecting. Video calls let visual cues guide emotion-focused work, phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging support shorter check-ins and step-by-step coaching between sessions. These formats make it easier to maintain regular contact and to practice skills in day-to-day life while balancing other commitments.
