Jonathan Caballero , LPC

Jonathan Caballero is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with seven years of clinical experience. He holds a BA in Psychology from Texas State University and an MA in Counseling from St. Edward's University in Austin. As an LPC - a state license for professional counselors - he has focused much of his work on gender dysphoria, coming out, and issues specific to the LGBTQ+ community while practicing in Austin.

Jonathan also works extensively with parents who are navigating their child’s LGBTQ+ identity, offering education and guidance to help families move through fear, cultural conflict, or gaps in understanding. In addition to LGBTQ+ care, his practice addresses trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, struggles related to life transitions, and a range of relationship and intimacy concerns. He brings experience with addictions, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career questions, and mood disorders including bipolar and depression.

His clinical style is experience driven and grounded in everyday language. He intentionally avoids clinical jargon and seeks to form organic, trusting relationships that make therapy approachable rather than intimidating. Jonathan aims to create a calm atmosphere throughout the therapeutic process and works collaboratively with each person to meet their needs and goals.

Approaches and Remote Care for Meaningful Change

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting each person where they are, using empathy and genuine understanding to build a trusting relationship that supports self-exploration and personal growth. This approach is helpful for relationship concerns, identity questions, and clients seeking a nonjudgmental space to process difficult emotions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT can be effective for anxiety, depression, stress management, and practical coping strategies for day-to-day challenges.

Trauma-Focused Therapy provides targeted techniques to address the impact of traumatic experiences, helping individuals process memories, reduce distress, and rebuild a sense of safety and agency. It is well suited for those working through abuse, PTSD symptoms, or complex trauma reactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Jonathan works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. He treats the selection of techniques as a shared decision rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility, allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit varied schedules and life demands. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, reduce travel time, and access consistent support from a licensed professional regardless of daily constraints.
