Gabriela Kuri MontesLPC

Gabriela Kuri Montes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression, relationship and family conflicts, and challenges connected to pregnancy and childbirth. Gabriela works in both English and Spanish and brings a warm, collaborative style to sessions.

Gabriela favors practical approaches that help people notice what matters and take small, clear steps toward change. She often uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and track progress. Sessions emphasize concrete skills and doable actions that fit into daily life.

Her style is empathic and direct. Gabriela works with clients to shape measurable goals and to test new ways of handling stress, parenting challenges, or relationship strain. She aims to make sessions straightforward and to leave clients with specific tools they can use between meetings.

She also integrates ideas that help people reflect on meaning and values when facing big life changes. That perspective can be useful for coping with transitions such as becoming a parent, post-partum adjustment, or rearranging family roles after separation. Gabriela encourages a steady, step-by-step approach to change.

People who prefer practical, goal-oriented work alongside reflective conversation may find her approach helpful. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's process to match and schedule a first appointment.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with their values. It is useful for chronic worry, life transitions, and building motivation after major changes like becoming a parent. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. It tends to be hands-on and skill-focused for problems such as panic, low mood, or sleep disruption.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Gabriela will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they set short-term goals and try strategies, then adapt the plan based on what helps most.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports staying consistent during postpartum recovery or while juggling parenting responsibilities. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively in remote sessions, and Gabriela will discuss practical arrangements during the matching and scheduling process.
