More about Colby

  • 7 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMFT

My name is Colby Perez I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist(LMFT) in the state of Texas. I have experience working in a variety of therapeutic settings. I started my practice in a community mental health agency in the state of Texas gaining perspective and understanding of how poverty, addiction, and Trauma, can truly impact a family dynamic. I have worked with families and individuals who have experienced anxiety, depression, abuse/neglect, parenting difficulties, stress, loss, and the frustrations of life. Colby hopes to make a space for clients that is safe for all and without judgment.

I would describe my approach as empathetic, warm, goal-oriented, and client-centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-focused therapy, and Narrative Therapy to help my clients set goals and objectives, work through their traumas, and feel empowered once they have met their goals.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
