Hello, I am Maria, an English /Spanish speaking licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas with 6+ years experience treating women and children, trauma survivors, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, life transitions and behavioral issues. As a therapist my focus is on providing a safe and supportive space where my patients can explore, identify and change unhealthy thinking patterns that often can keep them stuck in what seem like never ending loops of doubt, negative thoughts, and emotional distress. I meet my clients with empathy and a genuine interest in helping them navigate the challenges they face while empowering them to take back control over their lives.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
