Justin Salcedo

Justin Salcedo is a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas who focuses on helping people reduce suffering and build meaningful lives. He brings seven years of clinical experience to his work and holds a Texas professional counseling license (LPC #78076).

He earned a master’s degree in clinical psychology from Sam Houston State University and has worked across a variety of settings. His background includes counseling students in a university environment, treating patients in a psychiatric hospital, providing care for people with severe substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions, teaching at the university level, supervising other therapists, and offering one-on-one therapy in private practice.

Justin has provided psychotherapy for a wide range of concerns, including mild to severe depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, traumatic stress, substance abuse and other addictions, psychotic disorders, mood disorders, grief, and feelings of loneliness or lack of meaning. His style begins with warm, non-judgmental support and aims to empower clients to make their own decisions and pursue value-based living.

He integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - a contemporary cognitive behavioral approach - to identify underlying processes that may be contributing to a person’s distress and to tailor evidence-based strategies collaboratively. Throughout treatment he emphasizes making clients feel genuinely heard and fostering a strong therapeutic relationship, since finding the right match is a key factor in long-term success in therapy.
