About Wendy
Wendy Salazar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 20 years of experience to conversations about parenting, relationship concerns, grief, trauma, and ADHD. She aims to make conversations clear and practical so people can use what they learn right away.
Wendy favors a collaborative approach where the person coming for help guides the work. She treats clients as the expert on their own life and focuses on building strengths rather than simply fixing problems. Sessions commonly include direct skill practice, goal-setting, and chances to tell the stories that shape reactions and choices.
Her background includes long experience in community and clinical settings in Texas and work with a wide range of concerns such as compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, immigration issues, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and has served as a supervisor for newer clinicians.
Therapeutic methods she draws on include client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral ideas to address thinking patterns, mindfulness practices for managing stress, motivational approaches to support change, and narrative work to reframe life stories. Sessions are aimed at practical steps people can use between meetings.
People who want straightforward, respectful conversations about mood, behavior, and coping often find her style direct and supportive. Prospective clients should confirm session options and scheduling details before booking.
How her approaches guide online care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and responding to each person's priorities. The therapist follows the client's lead, clarifies goals, and helps people build on their own strengths to address stress or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical experiments to change behavior. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with sleep or anger by teaching simple skills to use between sessions.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple attention practices that can reduce rumination and improve stress management. These practices are brief and designed to fit into daily routines.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with each client to choose and adapt methods based on goals, preferences, and what proves helpful over time. Adjustments are normal as progress unfolds.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, permit shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also allows continued work after major life changes or disruptions while the therapist and client decide which techniques to focus on.
