More about Esteban

  • 18 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMHC

Hello, my name is Esteban Angel Cabrera. I am a licensed mental health counselor with over two decades of experience in a plethora of services that includes academia and community health providers. As a son of a migrant seasonal farm working family, I have experienced many challenges in my life. I longed for a sense of normalcy and stability. I learned long ago that these don't come easy or are handed to you. It can be very difficult to manage everyday life challenges let alone any major traumatic events. I am encouraged by a quote I learned long ago "never let yesterday's disappointments overshadow tomorrow's dream be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might." I believe in making connection with others through validation, encouragement and guidance. We all have struggles in our lives and I believe that struggles are not failures but it means you are succeeding in "not giving up!" The counseling experience begins with developing a safe and consistent rapport that allows the counselor and client the space to grow into a healthy therapeutic alliance. Therapy can be quite difficult and having a safe environment to talk about and process life's difficulties is so very important. I am excited in working with you to help you experience the great things that life has to offer you.

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Esteban is a fantastic fit for me. I had two sessions with a different Better Help therapist before meeting Esteban. I decided to look for someone who not only matched my Christian values but I connected with. I am happy this is working out. If you are a Christian who is looking to avoid hippy dippy baloney then Esteban would probably be a solid choice.

I’ve been meeting with Esteban for almost a month now and he has helped guide me through the darkest experience and season of my life. I am encouraged every time we speak and leave feeling like I have real goals to work towards and how to grow from my past and my hurts. He shares what the Lord impresses on his heart and I’m so thankful for his faithfulness to biblical teaching and to listening to my situation and providing comfort and guidance. It has been a true blessing to counsel with him.

Esteban was the absolute correct person for me to talk to. I never once left a session thinking it was a waste of time. In fact, every time I felt hopeful and uplifted. I only wish I could shrink him and carry him around in my purse. I’ve gained more than just emotional help on the typical issues. Esteban has a calmness that rubs off on you, he brings a touch of lightheartedness to the hour. I was lucky to get paired with him.

Esteban listened, would let me talk about whatever was on my mind, and then would ask the questions necessary to allow me to move things forward. No judgments or instant-assessments were made, which allowed me to figure things out on my own. I really appreciate the flexibility, relatability, and ability to feel like I didn’t have to follow a criteria or syllabus.
