More about Wilfred

  • 5 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

I am a professional counselor/therapist (LPC) licensed in the state of Texas with over 6 years experience providing clinical mental health assistance to diverse groups of individuals and ethnicities and have also worked for over 10 years as an academic/success coach providing educational and career guidance.

My counseling philosophy is to build a meaningful therapist-client relationship of mutual trust and acceptance as I help you navigate the challenges you're experiencing.

I have worked with diverse individuals and ethnicities experiencing a variety of life's challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, marriage and family issues, infidelity, infertility, trauma, domestic violence and abuse, violence from a conflict zone, unforgiveness, shame and guilt, crisis of religious faith, anger management, career and academic challenges, coping with life change, work related issues, among others.

My primary therapeutical orientations are cognitive behavior therapy, solution focused and choice theories. But I am able to integrate other theories base on the situation at hand.

Life is full of challenges, therefore you need not walk it alone. As your therapist, I want to get to know you, build a meaningful client-therapist relationship with you and be that individual who will come alongside to listen and provide the needed assistance to help you navigate life's challenges and live fully.

I am excited and passionate about helping people and I look forward to working with you.

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.

When I first began my session I was in a very rough state of mind, and I was very afraid, but I knew I needed to start therapy and be honest about what I was thinking and feeling. Wilfred was kind, attentive, patient, and helped me navigate through my anxieties that were heavily affecting my life. His advice was always solid, he posed appropriate question that forced me to think and reflect and grow. It was an overall wonderful experience, and I highly recommend him!

Wilfred was an amazing listener made me feel heard he understood my problems offered me very good advice. Definitely would recommend him to anyone and cannot wait for my next session.

Reviewed September 2023

Dr. Manyango was incredible. He was very understanding and very practical. He listened intently, always remembered the details of my particular issues and very often generously went beyond our allotted time if he felt that I needed more time to fully express myself. His wealth of experience as a person and his own spiritual background (only when I asked him for that perspective) were assets in our work together while always being respectful and honoring how I would prefer to approach an issue. He would ask probing questions or answer questions that I would ask him if I needed his personal take, or he just listens to you as you workout your own 'stuff' outloud, He adapted to me and really held space for me when I needed. He brings a uniquely diverse and cultural understanding of life's challenges that I was seeking and appreciated. He helped me a lot. Highly, highly recommended.
