About Wendy
Wendy Salazar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 20 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, trauma and mood concerns. She also helps people dealing with grief, relationship difficulties, ADHD, and issues related to family and immigration.
Wendy uses an integrated approach that pays attention to both body and mind. She blends practical techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered listening. Sessions focus on clear goals, skill practice, and understanding patterns that keep problems going.
She describes the therapeutic relationship as collaborative. Clients are treated as the experts on their own lives while the counselor offers guidance, feedback, and tools. That means sessions often include problem-solving, emotion regulation skills, and conversations about how life roles like parenting or caregiving affect daily functioning.
Wendy has worked across many settings during her career, including supporting people with trauma, first responder stress, and blended family concerns. Her background includes motivational interviewing and narrative approaches, which she uses when people want to reframe difficult experiences or find new motivation to change.
She offers therapy in English and Spanish. People interested in starting are invited to use the online sign-up flow to answer a short questionnaire and schedule a first appointment. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client’s lead, asks open questions, and supports the client in naming goals and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into patterns of thought and behavior. Online CBT typically uses structured discussions, homework, and skill practice to address anxiety, depression, parenting stress, or sleep and eating concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding skills. These techniques can help reduce stress reactions and support emotion regulation during busy home life.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide what methods fit their needs, goals, and day-to-day routines. That plan can be adjusted as therapy progresses and as priorities change.
Session format options were not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins between responsibilities. Therapists can adapt exercises so they work in an online setting, use shorter check-ins when needed, and help clients practice skills that transfer into everyday family life.
