Are you ready to be the best version of yourself? If the answer to this question is yes, I am the counselor for you! My name is Destinee Abrego and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in Texas and I have over 18 years experience in the counseling profession and I have worked with a wide range of populations to include, school aged children, teens/ adolescents, and adults that present with a variety of issues and concerns. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, anger, LGBT issues, and adjustment disorders. My treatment approach is set on the foundation of building a therapeutic relationship by establishing trust and rapport. I am eclectic in the theories I use and some of the therapeutic approaches I use include theory's such as solution focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, attachment theory's, mindfulness, , and client centered approaches. I will focus on your strengths, abilities and skills to help you achieve your individualized goals.

I believe that therapy is a professional relationship in which both the therapist and client work together to set attainable goals that best fit your needs. What you will get from me is a safe non-judgmental place to be yourself. I am a firm believer that every individual is an expert in their own life and posses the skills necessary to attain the best version of themselves.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Working with Destinee Abrego has been life changing and I have gotten more than I ever thought possible from virtual therapy. The flexibility and convenience of scheduling is great and Destinee is great about responding quickly. As a therapist, she is genuine and deliberate in our conversations which makes it so much easier to open up completely. She doesn’t give generic feedback and I never feel judged on any topic we have discussed - which have ranged from childhood to work issues to sexual issues. Destinee is great at what she does, and I am so thankful for finding her in this app.

My experience with Destinee has been so valuable. She is down to earth and really takes time to listen and understand. She doesn’t just tell me what I want to hear and she is thoughtful in her response every time we talk/message. I am so grateful for her and this service.
