About Simon
Simon Camarillo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, anger, and related concerns. Simon works with individuals who want practical ways to handle tough feelings and improve daily functioning.
He uses straightforward methods to build self-understanding and change unhelpful patterns. Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between appointments. Simon names men's issues, young adult concerns, and problems like panic attacks, isolation, and substance use among his frequent topics.
His background blends client-centered listening with structured approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness. That means time is spent both on understanding what matters to the person and on practicing skills to manage thoughts, urges, and strong emotions. Solution-focused tools are used to set short-term goals and track small changes.
For people affected by past harm, trauma-focused methods are available to address painful memories at a pace the person is comfortable with. He also attends to practical areas like career stress, intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, and grief. Sessions aim to reduce reactive behavior and increase choices in how someone responds to frustration.
Simon describes his work as collaborative and values clear, measurable progress. To begin, he asks people to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session so they can talk about goals and the steps that fit their life.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Simon uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy online. Client-centered work focuses on listening and helping someone make sense of their thoughts and feelings, which can be done through regular conversations and check-ins. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and gives clear skills to practice between sessions, such as thought records and behavioral experiments, which transfer well to remote work.Mindfulness practice is also part of his online approach. That involves short guided attention exercises and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of bodily sensations and emotional cues. These exercises can be assigned as brief home practice between appointments.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will work with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, combining listening with concrete tasks when that helps. The plan can change as progress is made.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, require less travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports practicing skills in real-life settings between meetings.
