You decide what we touch and when. Corpus Christi is a coastal, working South Texas city with a deep, multi-generational Tejano community — families that have been on this stretch of coast for a long time, woven into the refineries, the base, the fishing, and the schools. Language here often runs along generations: an abuela who thinks and prays in Spanish, parents who move easily between both, kids who answer in English. When something painful moves through a family like that, it can be hard to find one person who can sit with each member in the language they actually feel in. I can — Spanish and English are both fully mine, and we can move between them the way your family does. Most of the people I meet from Corpus aren't in crisis. They're steady, hard-working, and quietly stretched: the shift worker who never quite rests, the mother holding several jobs together, the adult child watching a parent age. We work on low self-esteem, anxiety, grief that never got its turn, and the burnout of being the dependable one for everybody. I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and a holistic, client-centered approach — at your pace, and you decide what we touch and when. Meeting online fits a working city and a working schedule. There's no drive across town after a long shift, no waiting room, and no one needs to know where you're spending the hour. You log on from home, and it's yours — a rare thing for people who spend most of their week taking care of everyone else. I'm Maria Teresa Valencia, MA, LPC — a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas (license #64813), licensed in Texas since 2009. I grew up further down the border, in the same South Texas world, so the culture doesn't need translating — it just gets to be the room we work in. Not sure if this is the right fit?

Yes, and it's one of my favorite kinds of work. Because both languages are fully mine, I can meet each person where their feelings actually live, and we can move between English and Spanish the way your family naturally does. ### I work shifts and my schedule is unpredictable — how does online help? It removes the commute entirely, so the only thing you have to protect is the hour itself. We'll find a time that fits your real week, and you do it from wherever you are. ### Can we do this in Spanish? Completely — it's my language, not a translation.
