About Yesenia Guerra

Yesenia Guerra is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Texas with 16 years of counseling experience, including 13 years practicing as a Licensed Professional Counselor. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, navigate life changes, address relationship challenges, and strengthen self-esteem. Her practice emphasizes a supportive atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be shared openly while clients receive constructive feedback, practical tools, and emotional support along with unconditional positive regard as needed.

Yesenia thanks people for taking the initial step toward growth and is committed to supporting clients as they work toward their goals. For virtual or phone sessions she is usually available on Sundays from 1 PM to 6 PM. Weekly virtual or phone appointments may be scheduled 10 or more hours in advance by selecting a time slot from her available schedule. She typically responds to messages at least once per work day and does not usually reply during personal time - when she returns to work she will respond at the start or end of that work day. If a response is not immediate, she asks for patience as she may be assisting other clients.

If someone is experiencing a crisis or needs immediate safety intervention, she directs them to call 911, call 988, or go to the nearest hospital. Yesenia prefers and recommends virtual sessions because they allow observation of nonverbal communication and can create a more personable therapeutic experience, though she is open to discussing other arrangements or referring a client to someone who better fits their communication preference. She looks forward to working with new clients and supporting their progress.

Approaches That Guide Her Online Practice

Yesenia Guerra integrates established therapeutic approaches into her online work to meet a range of needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping clients explore their own goals and values - this approach can be especially useful for building self-esteem and clarifying life purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, making it a practical option for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for regulating intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress, which can benefit those experiencing relationship difficulties or chronic emotional pain.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Yesenia works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the work over time based on what proves most helpful.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility that can fit busy schedules and varied lifestyles. These options make therapy more accessible for people juggling work, family, or mobility limitations, and allow licensed professionals to provide consistent care without requiring travel.
