About Ramon

Ramon Ruiz IV is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with 10 years of professional experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, self-esteem struggles, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.

Ramon focuses on practical conversations and clear goals. Sessions typically center on what is happening now and what can change next. He uses straightforward tools and teaches skills people can try between meetings.

His practice draws on several established approaches. That includes client-centered work that prioritizes the person's perspective, cognitive behavioral techniques that identify thought and behavior patterns, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy for emotion regulation and coping. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of his approach when they suit the client's needs.

Ramon helps people address specific issues such as substance use, compulsive behaviors, attachment or abandonment concerns, body image, chronic pain or illness, codependency, communication and commitment problems, dissociation, and co-occurring conditions. He speaks English and practices in Texas.

To begin, Ramon asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Pricing varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be arranged.

BHow sessions work

How Ramon uses evidence-based approaches online

Ramon draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in clear, practical ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. DBT offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and improving communication in high-stress moments.

He also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize the person's perspective and motivation. Ramon will work with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals. That decision is collaborative and can change as work progresses.

Confirm the current session options before booking since the profile does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove the time spent traveling to an appointment. Ramon uses these methods to help people practice skills between meetings and to apply changes in daily life.
