Enrique Villarreal, LPC

Enrique Villarreal, LPC, has provided counseling since 2016 and brings 10 years of experience supporting people through anxiety, stress, and self-doubt, with a strong emphasis on career development and life design. He earned a Master of Education in Counseling from Colorado State University and has worked primarily with young adults and midlife career changers who want greater clarity and direction in both work and personal life.

His perspective is shaped by formal training in counseling and career development, including focused study on how career influences human development. He integrates a career lens into sessions because work satisfaction can affect relationships and overall well-being, and challenges in mental health or relationships can also spill into performance and fulfillment at work. This whole-life view guides his work with concerns such as coping with life changes, self-esteem, grief, anger, depression, compassion fatigue, addictions, and LGBT-related stressors, along with caregiver strain, guilt and shame, men’s issues, multicultural concerns, and workplace pressures.

Enrique’s approach blends cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused methods to help clients identify unhelpful patterns, build practical coping tools, and move toward meaningful goals. He is also a Nationally Certified Counselor and a Certified Clinical Supervisor of Career Counseling, and he is motivated by helping people loosen the grip of fear and doubt so they can pursue more fulfilling lives. He welcomes clients who notice that their personal and professional worlds are impacting each other and are ready to explore a clearer path forward.
