About Mariana
Mariana Flores is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, and depression. She greets clients with calm and direct care. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at making early steps feel doable for a worried parent or anyone seeking help.
She uses straightforward conversations to figure out what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on skills that reduce overwhelm, improve mood, and strengthen day-to-day coping.
Background and approach
Mariana tailor-makes plans rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions. Her approach blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques. That means listening closely and then working on thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going.
She also draws on emotion-focused tools to address relationship patterns and Trauma-Focused Therapy for people coping with past harm. Mariana has seven years of counseling experience in Texas. She offers care in both English and Spanish and is familiar with issues like ADHD, grief, addiction, caregiver stress, and eating concerns.
Her aim is to help clients move from feeling stuck to having clearer next steps. Practical concerns such as parenting strain, career stress, and compassion fatigue are common topics in her work. She encourages small changes that add up over time.
If you’re nervous about starting therapy, she acknowledges that and helps make the process more manageable.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy begins with careful listening and working at the client’s pace. Online sessions using this approach focus on building rapport and identifying what matters most to the person, which helps set practical goals for daily life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence feelings. In remote sessions, CBT often includes short exercises, worksheets, and behavioral experiments that can be done between meetings to reduce anxiety and improve mood.
She will collaborate with each client to find the best approach. Figuring out what style fits your goals is part of the work together. The therapist will check in and adjust methods as needs and preferences become clearer.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, manage follow-up between meetings, and choose a format that suits energy levels and daily routines.
