About Edward
Edward Perez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 10 years of clinical experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and depression. He also focuses on concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, substance concerns, and communication problems.
Edward draws on straightforward conversation and practical tools. He uses approaches like attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people name patterns and try different responses. He will listen to what matters to each person and shape conversations around those concerns.
In sessions he pays attention to how past relationships influence present feelings. That can include looking at attachment patterns and how they show up in close relationships. He also uses CBT-informed techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and test them with small experiments between sessions.
Edward also incorporates elements from dialectical behavior work and the Gottman Method when relationship skills or emotional regulation are central. He aims to combine skills practice with talk so people can try new ways of handling conflict or strong emotion. This practical mix is used with adults who want clearer thinking and steadier interactions.
Edward offers therapy in English and Spanish. He draws on a long military background alongside his counseling years to understand stress, structure, and transitions. To get started a person completes a short questionnaire and schedules a first session.
How his approaches translate to online work
Edward commonly uses attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioral techniques in session. Attachment-based work focuses on how early and ongoing relationships shape current feelings and reactions, which can help when guilt or shame links to relationship pain. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts that keep distress going and uses small experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting.He treats choosing an approach as a collaborative process. Together the therapist and client decide which methods fit the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying a few tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins, and reduce travel time. They also let people use strategies and homework in real-life contexts and bring those experiences back to talk about in session.
