About Carlos
LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. Carlos Villegas focuses on family concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. He offers services in English and Spanish and draws on crisis response work with law enforcement to inform his approach.
Carlos works with people facing acute stress, burnout, and the aftermath of traumatic events. He uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe difficult stories. He also incorporates somatic, or body-focused, practices to address how stress shows up physically.
He includes Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, for processing traumatic memories. Carlos aims to make sessions straightforward and practical, focusing on concrete changes rather than abstract theory.
His background includes years of crisis response and collaboration with first responder communities. That work shaped his sense of what helps with high-stress, high-demand roles and traumatic exposures. Carlos brings that perspective to sessions without assuming any one path is right for everyone.

How Carlos applies therapeutic techniques in online work
He uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from painful stories and identify new, actionable meanings. This approach focuses on the words and events people bring to sessions and helps make sense of patterns that keep repeating.He also uses somatic approaches that attend to bodily sensations linked to stress and trauma. These techniques teach simple ways to notice and regulate physical responses like tension, racing heart, or dissociation so a person can feel more grounded in day-to-day life.
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is used for processing distressing memories. It involves focusing attention in structured ways while recalling memories, with the aim of reducing the emotional intensity tied to those events.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Carlos will work with each person to figure out what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. He may combine methods, adjust pacing, or shift focus as progress is reviewed.
Confirm current session formats before booking, since session options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Ask about session length and technical options when scheduling so arrangements match daily life.
