About Roy

Roy Cecrle is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of experience. He focuses on addictions, self esteem, anxiety, stress, anger, relationships, and intimacy-related concerns. He offers straightforward support for people navigating compulsive behaviors and life transitions.

Roy draws on a client-centered approach and motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals, practical next steps, and honest conversations about challenges like substance use, process addictions, or codependency. He creates a calm space to talk through shame, guilt, and family of origin issues.

A background in the United States Marine Corps informs his work with topics such as discipline, meaning, and resilience. He also addresses fatherhood issues, communication problems, and veteran and armed forces concerns without assuming one-size-fits-all solutions. Spiritual or faith-based perspectives can be included when desired by the person seeking help.

Roy uses techniques that encourage self-reflection and action. Motivational interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. Client-centered methods prioritize the person’s own goals and values.

People can expect practical tools and short-term strategies as well as room for deeper exploration of trauma and family patterns. The focus is on building self-love and improving day-to-day coping, not on labels or quick fixes. He works in English and practices in California.

How client-centered care and motivational interviewing translate online

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the person’s priorities. In practice this means sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on building goals that feel personally meaningful. Motivational interviewing is a conversational method that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change and strengthen their own reasons to take action; it can be helpful for addictions, recovery, and behavior change.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration includes checking in about what works, adjusting strategies, and keeping the person’s values at the center of care.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling, fewer travel demands, and the ability to fit sessions into a busy day. Since specific session formats are not listed in the biography, please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it simpler to maintain continuity of care while managing work and family responsibilities, and a focus on actionable steps helps therapy feel relevant between meetings.
