About Mickey
Mickey Reves is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, and depression. He also supports those coping with life changes and related concerns such as codependency and attachment difficulties. He greets new clients with calm and straightforward guidance to help them take the first step toward feeling better.
Mickey keeps sessions practical and down-to-earth. He encourages clients to talk openly about what’s worrying them and what they hope to change. Conversations focus on small, doable steps that fit into everyday life rather than abstract ideas that feel hard to use.
He uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. Techniques drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are used to address unhelpful thinking and to build new habits. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify values and find the internal motivation to make changes.
With 14 years of experience, Mickey has worked with a broad range of concerns including family-of-origin issues, communication problems, addiction, grief from divorce or separation, and challenges related to aging. He aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where feelings can be named and practical plans can be developed.
Clients can expect direct, compassionate guidance and practical tools to manage symptoms and move toward goals. He emphasizes collaboration and real-world strategies that people can try between sessions.
How his approaches fit into online therapy
Mickey commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which can ease feelings of emptiness or codependent patterns. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that maintain anxiety or depression, offering clear exercises and practices to use between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend ways of working that make sense. That collaborative process helps shape the plan and the kinds of exercises or conversations used in sessions.
Please confirm the current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life - for example it can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins during a break, or let someone attend when they cannot be in the office. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT techniques to work in remote sessions, using guided exercises, thought records, and goal-setting that people can practice between meetings.
