Dr. Norma Reyes, LPC

Dr. Norma Reyes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 11 years working in behavioral health and counseling experience since 2014. She combines therapy and personal development to help people manage stress, anxiety, and big life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and offers care through video, phone, chat, and messaging formats.

Her background includes a Ph.D. in Adult, Professional, and Community Education, which she uses to blend practical coaching with therapeutic work. That mix helps people handle school or work stress, career shifts, and the everyday pressure of parenting or caregiving. Sessions focus on real skills rather than abstract ideas.

In the therapy room, she listens for what matters most and helps clients build clear steps to feel better. She uses approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. Emotionally focused work is used when exploring relationship and attachment concerns.

Dr. Reyes also works with people facing trauma, depression, postpartum struggles, and family or communication problems. She offers guidance around adoption and foster care challenges, blended family dynamics, and the guilt or shame that can follow major life events. Practical tools and emotion-focused conversations are both part of her process.

Her style is collaborative and goal oriented. She helps people set small, achievable steps toward relief and greater daily functioning. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

Approaches to change and how online care can help

Dr. Reyes commonly uses cognitive behavioral approaches that focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which centers conversations on the client's priorities and builds on the client's strengths.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation when that is helpful, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief updates, ongoing coaching-style support, or when written reflection fits someone’s rhythm. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
