About Vanessa
Vanessa Garcia Navarrete is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She draws on a decade of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and trouble with self-esteem. She also supports those facing career shifts and major life changes.
Vanessa aims for straightforward conversations. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps people can use between meetings. She adapts her approach to each person rather than using the same plan for everyone.
Background and approach
Her work includes helping people facing workplace problems, social anxiety, and the pressures that come with being a young adult. She also addresses body image, eating and food-related issues, caregiver stress, and feelings of isolation or shame. Vanessa blends several approaches to match a person’s needs.
She uses client-centered listening to build understanding and cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness tools and solution-focused techniques help people practice small changes that add up over time. She offers services in English and Spanish and meets with people online through calls, video, chat, or messaging.
The process starts with a short questionnaire and scheduling so therapy can fit into daily life.

How Vanessa's Approaches Translate to Online Care
Vanessa often combines client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to make online sessions practical and action oriented. Client-centered therapy means she listens closely and follows what matters most to the person, helping them feel understood before planning next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, anger, or low confidence.She treats choosing an approach as a team effort. During early sessions she will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest a mix of techniques to try. Progress is reassessed regularly so the plan can shift if something isn't helpful.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can work well during a lunch break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, quick support between sessions, or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
