About
Maria Serrano, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor in Texas with more than 15 years of clinical experience in Mexico and Texas. She supports adults who are navigating stress and anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, and depression, as well as related difficulties such as communication problems, attachment and abandonment concerns, life transitions, guilt and shame, and feeling stuck or empty.
Her work is grounded in an existential-humanistic perspective that helps clients explore meaning, values, and the emotional experiences that shape daily life and relationships. When helpful, she integrates practical strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) to identify unhelpful patterns, strengthen coping skills, and move toward clear, achievable goals.
Maria aims to offer a compassionate, supportive environment where clients can reconnect with themselves and others in healthier ways, recognize inner strengths, and build momentum toward lasting, meaningful change. She provides therapy in both English and Spanish.

Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Maria Serrano, LPC, draws from approaches that can be effective in an online setting while still feeling personal and supportive. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration, helping clients feel understood while they explore emotions, relationship patterns, and self-esteem concerns at their own pace.She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on noticing how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. CBT can be especially useful for stress and anxiety, low mood, and day-to-day coping, offering practical tools that clients can apply between sessions.
When a client wants a clear path forward, Solution-Focused Therapy can help identify strengths, set realistic goals, and build momentum through small, meaningful steps - a good fit for parenting concerns, relationship stressors, and periods of transition.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Maria works collaboratively with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailors the work accordingly as therapy unfolds.
Online therapy adds flexibility and access, making it easier to connect from home or while traveling within your state. Sessions can happen through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that best fits their schedule and comfort level.
