Mirta Z. Sandoval is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger, depression, addictions, and relationship struggles. She has 15 years of experience in the social sciences and offers a calm, straightforward approach.
Mirta speaks English and practices in Texas. Mirta adapts her style to fit each person’s needs. She listens first and then uses a mix of practical techniques and focused conversation to help clients make changes.
Background and approach
Sessions are meant to be a place to talk through what’s happening now and identify small steps that feel doable. She draws on several approaches, including client-centered methods that prioritize the person's experience and cognitive behavioral techniques that look at thoughts and behaviors. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused work also show up when a person is ready to set goals and build momentum.
The overall aim is to leave each session with a clearer plan. Mirta works with people dealing with a wide range of challenges like codependency, caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, substance issues, guilt, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She also supports people facing life transitions, midlife questions, and searches for meaning.
If someone is unsure about starting therapy, Mirta encourages giving it a try and then deciding. She offers a direct but compassionate presence and helps people find practical ways to cope and move forward.

04Online support
Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. In practice this means Mirta creates space for people to tell their story and then follows their lead to identify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mirta will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. She may combine elements from different approaches and adjust the plan as progress is made so the work stays relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options give flexibility for scheduling and for the way people prefer to communicate.
