About Maricruz

Maricruz Valdez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with ten years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. Maricruz speaks English and Spanish and works with adults who want clearer direction and more meaning in their day-to-day life.

She prefers a straightforward, respectful approach. Sessions focus on the person in front of her, not on one-size-fits-all techniques.

Background and approach

Maricruz uses a mix of client-centered listening, cognitive-behavioral tools, and existential ideas to help people notice what matters and make change. In sessions she will help identify patterns that keep problems repeating. That may involve testing small behavior changes, practicing new ways of talking about difficult feelings, or using mindfulness to slow a racing mind.

The emphasis is on practical steps that can be tried between sessions. Maricruz also supports people facing parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and challenges tied to immigration, attachment, and abandonment. She works with concerns such as obsessive thoughts and compulsions, body image, and life-purpose questions.

Her style balances empathy with clear, goal-oriented work. Her clinical background combines client-centered care, cognitive-behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, narrative methods, and existential perspectives. That range allows Maricruz to adapt to different needs while keeping the conversation focused and humane.

Therapeutic approaches for online care and lasting change

Existential Therapy helps people face big life questions about meaning, choice, and identity. In sessions it focuses on what matters to the person and on finding direction when life feels uncertain or empty. Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s experience at the center of the work. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and follows the client’s pace to build understanding and trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking and build healthier habits, which can help with anxiety, mood issues, and repetitive patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Maricruz will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She often combines elements from different approaches so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when visual cues help the work. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, brief reflections, or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practice new strategies in everyday situations.
