Pedro Lora, LPC

Pedro Lora is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 19 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, addiction, and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Pedro focuses on practical steps people can use when life feels overwhelming. He often helps those juggling work, relationships, parenting, and immigration challenges. He also supports people managing trauma, grief, and issues related to HIV and substance use.

In sessions he uses clear, goal-oriented methods. He draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and prioritize what matters to the client. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems stuck. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy guide short-term goals and changes that feel doable.

Pedro has a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Mental Health from the University of Texas at San Antonio. He has worked across many clinical settings over nearly two decades, assisting people with panic, PTSD, workplace stress, and family-related concerns.

People who contact him can expect straightforward conversations about what’s not working and specific strategies to try between sessions. He also addresses parenting stress, fatherhood issues, and commitment or relationship concerns when they come up. If Spanish is preferred, sessions can be held in Spanish.
