About Gabriela

Gabriela Kuri Montes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. She draws on a broad background working across outpatient and community settings to address challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and family conflict, trauma, parenting concerns, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Gabriela emphasizes practical, goal-oriented work that helps clients identify immediate steps toward relief while also exploring longer-term patterns. Her therapeutic stance is warm, empathic, and collaborative; she partners with clients to set concrete goals and build skills that fit each person’s values and daily life.

Gabriela commonly integrates cognitive behavioral techniques alongside solution-focused and acceptance-based ideas to help people manage difficult thoughts, regulate emotions, and improve communication. Bilingual in English and Spanish, she offers services to clients throughout Texas and adapts her methods to meet individual preferences and needs.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Gabriela commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients address present problems and build meaningful life direction. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges. ACT focuses on values and committed actions, teaching acceptance of difficult internal experiences while guiding clients toward behaviors that align with what matters most to them.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process; Gabriela works with clients to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She adapts techniques across sessions, tracking progress and adjusting plans so the work stays relevant and effective for each person.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varying schedules and needs. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, support continuity when travel or time constraints arise, and allow clients to engage in therapy from familiar surroundings while maintaining the same professional care from licensed professionals.
