About Johnthan
Johnthan Rivero Ramirez is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with 20 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, and blended family issues.
He focuses on practical changes people can use at home. Sessions look at everyday patterns - how people talk, react, and manage conflict. He helps identify repeated interaction cycles and small shifts that can reduce tension and improve connection.
His approach draws on several evidence-informed methods. He uses cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns. He also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and guide actions even when feelings are difficult.
Attachment-based work is used to explore how early relationship experiences shape current reactions. Client-centered techniques aim to keep the conversation focused on the person's goals and perspective rather than an external agenda.
He also includes hypnotherapy when it fits a person's goals, for focused work on habits, anxiety, or grief. Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. The emphasis is on skills people can try between meetings and simple strategies to ease family tension.
Johnthan speaks English and Spanish. He practices in Texas as an LPC and brings two decades of clinical work to adults merging households, managing parenting roles, or facing major life changes.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name their values and take small actions toward them even when feelings are uncomfortable. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions around family roles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skill building to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, and managing reactions in tense interactions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how early experiences affect current responses, which can help with trust, intimacy, and blended family dynamics.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they choose or combine approaches that fit the client's needs and day-to-day life, adjusting the plan as progress is reviewed.
