About Asly

Asly Guevara is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She draws on five years of clinical experience to help people who are feeling stressed, anxious, or stuck in family tensions. Sessions often center on building mindfulness, motivation, and practical skills that increase confidence and resilience.

Her work focuses on trauma and abuse recovery, low mood, and issues related to self-esteem. She also addresses caregiver stress, communication problems, panic attacks, and concerns around self-harm.

Background and approach

Asly speaks English and Spanish and uses a calm, straightforward style to make conversations feel approachable. In therapy she emphasizes collaboration. Clients set goals together and choose the pace of work.

She uses evidence-based tools like trauma processing and relationship-focused techniques alongside mindfulness practices to manage symptoms and improve family interactions. Asly aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can talk through painful memories and everyday struggles. She encourages clients to notice strengths, try new behaviors, and rebuild routines that support wellbeing.

Practical steps and small changes are common parts of sessions. Her background includes a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and five years in practice as an LPC. Those years have included helping people cope after disasters, navigate immigration-related stress, and work on life direction and forgiveness.

She offers sessions in formats that fit busy lives and values steady progress over time.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client’s lead, helping people clarify goals and feel heard during sessions. It is useful for stress, low mood, and relationship questions. EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - is a trauma-focused method that helps process painful memories and reduce their emotional intensity when someone is ready to work on them. It can be helpful for trauma and abuse recovery.

Choosing a method is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try different techniques, and adjust based on how the client responds. Together they set goals and select approaches that fit the client’s needs, pace, and preferences rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules, continue work during life transitions, and check in between longer appointments. Licensed professionals can use these options to combine real-time conversation with shorter messaging support, which many people find convenient and supportive.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.

Gottman Method

A research-based framework for couples, focused on how partners argue, repair, and stay connected. Practical and structured, with exercises to try between sessions.
