About Gabriela
Gabriela Kuri Montes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She brings nine years of clinical experience and a steady, practical approach to sessions. She speaks English and Spanish and draws on several counseling methods to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship or family struggles.
Her style is warm and collaborative. She focuses on setting clear, achievable goals and breaking progress into small steps. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented so people can use new skills between meetings.
Background and approach
Gabriela uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy to tackle unhelpful thinking and build workable routines. She also draws on acceptance and commitment principles to help people notice values and make choices that match what matters most to them. This mix is aimed at practical change rather than long, abstract talks.
She has experience across outpatient and community settings and has worked with people facing trauma, addiction concerns, postpartum changes, and first responder stress. That background informs how she tailors plans for coping, emotion regulation, and relationship communication. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules.
Gabriela helps people prioritize what’s most pressing and creates step-by-step plans for moving forward. If someone wants clear strategies and steady support, she focuses on tools that can be used right away.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and finding direction after major life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related routines, and stress management.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Gabriela will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust over time. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay relevant and useful.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people work face to face from different places. Phone sessions are good when bandwidth is limited or a check-in fits a lunch break. Live chat or text messaging can support quick problem-solving, brief check-ins, or ongoing reminders between longer sessions. These options offer flexibility while keeping the focus on practical strategies and steady progress.
