01About Ricardo
Ricardo Espinoza is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and relationship struggles. He speaks English and Spanish and practices from Texas. He uses straightforward talk and practical steps so parents can find clear next moves when life feels overwhelming.
Ricardo blends several therapy styles to match a person’s goals. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and ACT to clarify values and small behavioral changes.
Background and approach
Emotionally focused and attachment-based ideas guide conversations about closeness and conflict in important relationships. Sessions are built around what each person needs. Ricardo listens first to understand daily routines and parenting challenges, then suggests small experiments and new ways to respond.
He focuses on skills that fit into busy lives rather than long lectures or vague homework. He has six years of counseling experience and has worked in independent practice and government settings. That range gives him experience with a wide set of concerns including trauma, grief, mood challenges, parenting strain, first responder and veteran issues, and immigration-related stress.
People can expect clear, practical steps delivered in a calm manner. Ricardo supports clients through problem-solving, emotion work, and behavioral change. The aim is to restore routine, reduce overwhelm, and help people move toward the life they value.

04Online support
How Ricardo’s approaches fit with online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation problems by focusing on small, doable steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down patterns between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas guide conversations about closeness and conflict, helping people improve communication and safety in relationships.Ricardo treats finding the right approach as a team effort. He will talk with each person about goals and daily routines, then try strategies together to see what fits best. Adjustments are normal and expected; the plan evolves based on what works and what feels manageable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and role practice, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging lets people share progress between sessions. These options make scheduling easier and let therapy fit into busy family and work lives.
