About Hector
Hector Roman is a Washington LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with 17 years of experience in the field. He works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, relationship and family tensions, low self-esteem, and depression. He offers help in both English and Spanish.
Hector focuses on practical, talk-based work. He listens without judgment and helps people name what they are feeling. Sessions often look like straightforward conversations about patterns, choices, and next steps. He draws on clear strategies to reduce intense moments and increase day-to-day coping.
He uses a mix of approaches depending on the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the person’s experience central and guides how the work unfolds. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for emotion regulation when feelings feel overwhelming.
People come to him for relationship strain, problems saying no, issues tied to blended families, separation and divorce, or struggles linked to addiction and codependency. He also works with concerns around fatherhood, infidelity, jealousy, loneliness, and life purpose. Conversations often include practical communication tactics and boundary planning.
Hector asks people to take small steps between sessions. These might be experiments in saying no, short exercises to shift a worry pattern, or practicing a new way to bring up a hard topic. To begin, people use the site’s sign-up flow to match and schedule a first session.

The original biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm which online options are available before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins between work tasks, or offering sessions that do not require being on camera. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to teach CBT and DBT skills, practice communication strategies, and plan small experiments to try between meetings.
