About Hilda

Hilda Guerra is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on parenting, self-esteem, stress, anxiety, anger, ADHD, and navigating life changes. She speaks English and Spanish. Hilda keeps things straightforward and practical so parents can find tools that fit their daily life.

She encourages people to notice their strengths and use them to face hard times. Hilda draws on Client-Centered Therapy to put the person's experience first and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help change unhelpful thoughts and habits.

Background and approach

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support motivation and the Gottman Method for relationship communication when relevant. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-focused so progress feels clear. She has three years of experience as an LPC, licensed in Texas under TX LPC 69052.

Her background in the mental health field includes work with parenting challenges, blended family issues, and communication problems. Those interests shape how she plans sessions and sets practical steps for change. In sessions she listens and offers concrete strategies for stress, workplace strain, relationship friction, and things like codependency or feelings of low self-worth.

Hilda also addresses multicultural concerns and women's issues when they come up. Her approach is to help people identify small, manageable changes that build toward larger goals. Hilda aims to make therapy fit a busy life.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. The focus is on steady, useful progress that feels relevant to everyday parenting and life demands.

Therapeutic approaches and online support for parents

Hilda often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and helping the person name their goals. This approach helps parents feel heard and guides the work from their priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce stress and anxiety.

Choosing the right way of working is part of the process. Hilda will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and together decide which approaches to use. That collaborative decision lets sessions stay practical and relevant to day-to-day parenting and life changes.

Online therapy provides flexibility for busy families. Video calls let people meet face to face from home, phone sessions are useful when schedules are tight, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick check-ins and ongoing reminders. These options make it easier to keep steady progress without rearranging the whole day.

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.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
