Gerri Dominguez, LPC

Gerri Dominguez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also supports people dealing with grief, parenting challenges, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, and major life changes. Her work includes attention to intimacy-related issues, process and sex addictions, obsessive-compulsive concerns, phobias, and compassion fatigue.

Gerri uses straightforward, person-focused methods. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, existential ideas, and mindfulness tools. Sessions can be practical and skills-based or more reflective, depending on what a person needs in the moment.

Her approach is collaborative. She describes herself as a passenger while the client drives the journey. That means setting goals together, trying techniques in session, and making adjustments as things change.

Gerri has six years of experience in counseling. Her background includes work in individual and group settings and work that involved domestic violence, adoption-related concerns, substance use, and trauma. She aims to offer steady support through difficult or painful parts of therapy.

Many people come for short-term coaching-style help and others stay longer for deeper work. She emphasizes practical skills for daily life alongside paying attention to feelings and values. If something feels important to you, she treats it as important.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking small meaningful steps toward them. ACT helps when people feel stuck by anxiety, depression, or life changes and want clearer direction rather than just symptom relief.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete skills for managing anxiety, sleeping problems, intrusive thoughts, and patterns that feed depression or compulsive behaviors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. It can be useful for intense emotions, anger, and patterns that lead to impulsive or self-damaging choices.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick or combine methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting as treatment continues.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm which formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports continuing treatment across locations for international clients, while letting people use tools learned in session in their everyday routines.
