About Felicia

Felicia Mask is a Licensed Professional Counselor who combines person-centered care with practical techniques. She draws on eight years of counseling experience and a decade and a half of work in education to help families and individuals handle stressful life moments. Felicia uses straightforward language and a calm presence to make conversations feel manageable.

She offers help for everyday struggles like anxiety, low mood, parenting stress, and relationship strain. Her training includes a Master of Arts in Psychology from the University of Houston–Clear Lake and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Houston.

Background and approach

She also meets the professional standards set by the Texas State Board of Examiners of Professional Counselors and practices under the LPC credential. In sessions she blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques. That means she listens first, then offers simple tools to change unhelpful thoughts and rebuild routines.

Mindfulness exercises are used when slowing down and noticing reactions helps reduce overwhelm. Felicia has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, adoption and foster care issues, blended family challenges, anger, and intimacy-related problems. Her background in education informs clear goal-setting and skills practice that parents often find useful.

Conversations typically focus on practical steps parents and partners can use at home. She emphasizes small, doable changes and builds plans that fit a family's daily life. The overall goal is clearer communication, better coping with change, and steadier emotional responses.

Therapeutic approaches for online family support

Client-Centered Therapy is about listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the client's lead and focuses on understanding concerns without judgment, which helps when families need a calm space to talk. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, anger, and low mood by teaching clear strategies and small homework tasks. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase emotional awareness, which can be useful for stress and trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person or family to choose methods that match needs, goals, and comfort level. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit busy family schedules and different comfort zones. These options make it easier to meet from home, follow up between sessions, and practice new skills in real life. The emphasis is on flexibility so therapy can fit into a family's routine and support steady progress.

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.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
