About JoMario

JoMario Rivera is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who centers his work on collaborative, skill-based therapy.

Background and approach

He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside complementary methods to help clients identify how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and to develop practical strategies for managing stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions. JoMario blends goal-focused interventions with an empathetic stance to support change in everyday functioning.

His practice addresses a broad range of concerns including depression, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and challenges such as ADHD, sleep and eating difficulties, and career or financial stress. Additional focus areas include multicultural concerns, chronic illness and pain, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and family of origin issues.

JoMario brings three years of clinical experience and conducts sessions in English and Spanish, offering multiple formats to fit different needs. As an LPC licensed in Texas (TX LPC 90407), he aims to create a collaborative environment where clients can explore values, build coping skills, and pursue meaningful goals.

Prospective clients can expect an approach that combines structured techniques with person-centered support to address both immediate symptoms and longer-term life adjustments.

Bringing CBT and Acceptance-based Care to Online Sessions

JoMario integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into online work in ways that aim to be practical and applicable to daily life. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood, while ACT emphasizes clarifying personal values and developing psychological flexibility to cope with difficult emotions. Both approaches lend themselves to homework and skills practice that clients can carry into everyday routines.

He approaches treatment collaboratively, helping clients weigh different methods and choose what fits their goals and preferences. The therapist works with each person to determine whether a skills-focused route, an acceptance-based path, or a blend of approaches will best address their situation, and adjustments are made as progress unfolds.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited mobility. These options make it easier to maintain consistency in care, practice skills between sessions, and access a licensed professional from different locations across Texas and beyond.
