About Gerri
Gerri Dominguez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also supports people dealing with grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem issues, bipolar concerns, and coping with life changes. Gerri uses a practical, down-to-earth style and aims to listen first and respond with clear steps.
Gerri blends several approaches to match each person's needs.
How Gerri works
She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, existential ideas, and mindfulness practices. That means sessions can include values work, skills for managing thoughts and behaviors, emotion regulation tools, and exercises to notice the present moment. Her way of working is collaborative.
She views the person as the driver and herself as a passenger who helps navigate hard turns. Sessions may focus on what is happening now, work through past experiences, or plan for the future depending on what a client needs. Gerri also offers coaching-style support for goal setting and practical change.
She pays attention to patterns like jealousy, obsessions and compulsions, phobias, process addictions, sex addiction, and the aftermath of sexual assault and abuse. The aim is to reduce distress and increase daily functioning. Over six years of professional experience inform her approach.
People can expect straightforward language, concrete tools, and encouragement to build confidence. Gerri is available for sessions in English and accepts international clients.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed action toward them while learning to let difficult thoughts and feelings exist without getting stuck. It can help with anxiety, depression, and making meaningful life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, sleep problems, and some addiction-related behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills, which can be helpful for intense emotions, anger, and relationship difficulties.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they will try tools and adjust the plan over time so the work fits the person's life and needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, skill practice, or when messaging fits into a busy day. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family, travel, and day-to-day routines.
