About Wendy
Wendy Salazar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, and other life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and focus on practical strategies people can use in daily life.
Wendy draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and build on a person's strengths. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that feed anxiety, anger, or low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people find reasons to try different coping steps and stick with them.
Her work emphasizes the connection between body and mind. That means paying attention to feelings, routines, and physical responses that keep problems running. Wendy describes the relationship with a client as collaborative - she helps people name goals and then practices skills together in sessions.
Wendy’s background includes many years supporting people through parenting stress, blended family issues, immigration stress, workplace strain, compassion fatigue, and first responder concerns. She also addresses abandonment and attachment issues, control and communication problems, infidelity, and grief-related challenges.
Practical tools and short-term skill building are common in sessions. People can expect clear feedback, steps to try between meetings, and attention to how symptoms show up in everyday moments. To begin, prospective clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
How sessions work
How Wendy Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online
Wendy commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online work. CBT involves identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing new skills to change them; it can help with anger, anxiety, sleep problems, and mood patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, reflecting, and building on a person's strengths so goals feel personally meaningful.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple awareness and grounding practices that reduce reactivity and bring attention back to choices in the moment. These practices can support coping with stress, anger, and grief by slowing automatic responses and creating space to try different behaviors.
Finding the right mix is collaborative. Wendy will work with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs and goals. Early sessions typically include assessment, goal-setting, and trying a few practical strategies to see what helps.
If you want to use online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking. The service uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
