Gabriela Kuri Montes

Gabriela Kuri Montes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She brings nine years of counseling experience and a practical approach to common problems like anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and anger. Gabriela speaks English and Spanish and aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable.

She focuses on clear goals and step-by-step plans rather than vague promises. Sessions often center on identifying what’s most distressing now, trying small changes, and measuring whether they help. Gabriela describes her style as warm, empathetic, and collaborative. She works with clients to set realistic actions they can use between sessions.

Her background includes work in outpatient and community settings and direct experience with trauma, relationship strain, parenting challenges, first responder stress, and addiction-related concerns. That variety shapes a practical, problem-solving orientation in her work. She draws on evidence-based methods to create straightforward plans for everyday life.

Gabriela uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and choose actions that match their values. She also uses solution-focused and existential ideas to help clients clarify meaning and next steps. These approaches are mixed to fit each person’s goals.

People who appreciate clear, goal-oriented sessions tend to do well with her style. To begin, prospective clients follow the platform’s process to match and schedule a session. Gabriela helps clients translate insights into concrete changes and keeps work focused on what matters most.

How Gabriela uses therapy approaches online

Gabriela commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in her work. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and anger. ACT focuses on values and committed action, helping people accept difficult feelings while still moving toward what matters to them.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Gabriela will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Then she and the client decide which tools and methods to try and adjust them over time in a collaborative way.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing quicker check-ins or longer weekly sessions depending on scheduling. Gabriela aims to help clients practice skills between meetings and apply changes to real life, which can be easier when sessions fit into a regular routine.
