About Armando
Armando Martinez Jr helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. He writes plainly and listens closely so clients can find clearer steps through stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. He meets people in English and Spanish and brings eight years of counseling experience to his work as a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC.
Armando centers sessions on the person's goals. He treats each person as the expert on their life and works collaboratively to identify practical steps.
How Armando works
Sessions mix active listening with hands-on techniques so people leave with tools they can use between meetings. His style blends several approaches to match the person in front of him. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation focused on the client's priorities and values. Mindfulness and Psychodynamic ideas may be used to increase self-awareness and manage stress. Armando has worked in inpatient settings, schools, and independent practice.
That range shaped his ability to support people facing trauma, addiction, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and other challenges listed in his specialties. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging, which lets people choose the format that fits their schedule. He practices in Texas and works with people in either English or Spanish.

Online support options
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Armando draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it focuses on clear steps and experiments between sessions.Client-Centered Therapy is another core influence. Sessions prioritize the client's concerns and pace, with the therapist listening and reflecting so the person sets the agenda and goals.
The therapist treats finding the right method as a team effort. He will discuss different approaches and recommend what might fit best, then adjust based on the client's goals and preferences so the plan evolves naturally.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit short updates or coaching-style support into a busy day. These options give flexibility so people can choose what works for their schedule and comfort level.
