Mariana Flores, LPC

Mariana Flores is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and depression. She works with concerns like low self-esteem, motivation struggles, addictions, grief, and chronic health challenges. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Mariana aims to make the first step feel possible and supportive for anyone starting therapy.

She listens first and then builds a plan with the person in front of her. That plan draws on methods that focus on current problems and on how people relate to their feelings and relationships. Sessions often include goal-setting, practical coping skills, and space to talk about painful experiences at a steady pace.

Mariana blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques and trauma-focused approaches. She uses motivational interviewing when people want help making changes and emotionally focused ideas when relationships and attachment come up. The result is a mix tailored to the problem at hand rather than a one-size-fits-all program.

Her background includes seven years working as a counselor in Texas. Mariana emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions. She helps people set manageable steps and notices small progress along the way.

If someone is unsure where to begin, she guides them through a brief intake and collaborates on next steps. Booking begins by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability.

How Mariana’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, listening space where the person leads the pace and priorities. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clearer thinking about values, or support processing strong emotions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thinking patterns affect mood and behavior. Sessions often include practical exercises and steps to change unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills for anxiety, depression, or motivation problems.

Trauma-Focused Therapy provides careful methods for addressing past harm at a pace the person can manage. It aims to reduce distress from traumatic memories and teach strategies to handle triggers and flashbacks.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Mariana collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and what feels doable. That decision is reviewed over time and adjusted as progress and needs change.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm available session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make scheduling easier, help fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow sessions when a shorter check-in is all that’s needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework so online sessions remain practical and focused on daily life.
