About Raquel
Raquel Lobaina is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She works with people facing relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Raquel also focuses on adoption and foster care issues, communication problems, dissociation, and young adult issues.
She began her career working with children, adolescents, and caregivers affected by many forms of trauma. Over time she has continued to work with adults who carry the effects of sexual assault, post-traumatic stress, and divorce or separation. Her practice emphasizes practical steps that help reduce symptoms and restore day-to-day functioning.
Raquel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop clearer, more effective behaviors. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented, with tools people can try between meetings. The work often combines discussing experiences with learning specific coping techniques.
She speaks English and Spanish, which can help when feelings or memories are hard to put into words. Her approach is focused on respectful listening and helping people find concrete ways to manage distress. Many clients come for help after big transitions such as leaving home, starting a new job, or ending a relationship.

How Raquel uses CBT online and what to expect
Raquel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot thinking patterns that increase anxiety or low mood and to practice different ways of thinking and acting. CBT sessions usually include setting clear goals, trying small experiments between meetings, and learning concrete coping skills that fit daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide what methods to try, adjust plans as needed, and check progress together. That means sessions can change focus if goals shift or new issues come up.
