01About Vanessa
Vanessa Garcia Navarrete is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Texas. She brings ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and career concerns. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make first steps feel manageable for those who are unsure where to begin.
Vanessa focuses on practical, day-to-day changes that reduce overwhelm. Sessions are conversational and tailored to each person's needs. She listens for what matters most and works with clients to set realistic next steps that fit their life and goals.
Background and approach
She uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches to help shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness techniques are added when clients want ways to calm intense feelings in the moment. Emotion-focused ideas are used to identify and name emotions that get in the way of decisions and relationships.
Vanessa also draws on solution-focused strategies to help people identify small, achievable changes. That can be especially useful when someone feels stuck at work, struggles with body image, or is facing career transitions. She supports people dealing with caregiver stress, eating or food-related concerns, and feelings of isolation.
Her style is respectful and direct. She emphasizes clear goals and practical skills, while also allowing space to process guilt, shame, forgiveness, or grief. Vanessa aims to help clients move toward the life they want with steady, achievable steps.

04Online support
Approach-focused care delivered online
Vanessa blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral strategies to help people clarify values, make concrete changes, and reduce distress. Client-centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration so sessions follow each person's priorities and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaching practical skills for change.Those approaches are mixed with Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when emotions need to be named and understood before change can happen. The therapist will work collaboratively to find which mix fits best based on your goals, preferences, and how you respond in early sessions. Deciding on an approach is part of the work together rather than a one-time choice.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for deeper conversation and visual cues, while phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter sessions, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options aim to make it easier to build consistency around therapy and fit visits into a busy life.
