Background and approach
Over 20 years she has worked in many settings, including community mental health and substance abuse services. That background shapes a practical approach to concerns like addiction, grief, anger, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, body image, and immigration-related stress.
Therapy can include short skills work, deeper exploration of relationship patterns, or support while navigating major life transitions. For intimacy or communication problems she focuses on what people do day to day and how to shift those routines. For mood and anxiety concerns she uses targeted cognitive and acceptance-based strategies to reduce unhelpful thinking and increase meaningful action.
Sessions are offered by video, phone, chat, or text messaging to fit different needs and schedules. People who prefer bilingual services can use English or Spanish. Dr.
Gonzalez aims to work collaboratively to set goals and pick tools that fit each person's life and values.
Online approaches that meet you where you are
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take steps toward those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by focusing on actions that build a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior that fuel stress and mood problems. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and managing addiction cravings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationship patterns shape current reactions and helps people build healthier ways of connecting with others.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to identify goals, try methods that fit personal preferences, and adjust the plan as progress unfolds. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to each person's priorities and pace.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and deeper work. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for brief updates, coach-style support, or when people prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or busy schedules while still using the same therapeutic approaches described above.
