About Vanessa
Vanessa Garcia Navarrete is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, career questions, anger, and major life changes. Vanessa works with young adults facing the typical pressures of early adulthood, including starting careers, shifting relationships, and finding direction.
Vanessa uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She listens and guides conversation so clients can name what's most urgent. Then she introduces strategies that match the client's goals, whether that means shifting thoughts, practicing new behaviors, or strengthening emotional awareness.
Her background includes several evidence-informed approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Those methods are used to reduce anxious thinking, improve confidence, and address workplace stress. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused and Solution-Focused techniques for relationship and problem-solving work.
Sessions include practical exercises and short-term tools as well as deeper conversations about patterns and values. Vanessa can work in English or Spanish to support bilingual speakers who prefer to switch between languages during sessions.

How her approaches translate to online work
Vanessa commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on clear, respectful listening and helping clients describe what matters most to them. It helps people clarify goals, feel heard, and set priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and offers tools to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits. It is useful for anxiety, workplace stress, and low confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the early sessions. She will work with each person to figure out which methods match their needs and goals. That process is collaborative - goals, preferences, and practical limits help guide the plan for future sessions.
The practical benefit of doing this work online is that sessions can fit into a busy week. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether video, phone, or another arrangement is offered. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule around classes, work shifts, and commuting, and also let people choose quieter surroundings, shorter check-ins, or sessions without being on camera when that suits them.
