About Marcela
Marcela Garcia is a licensed clinical professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship tension, family concerns, grief, and depression. She speaks English and Spanish and works from Nevada. Her approach begins by listening to each person’s story and goals so she can offer practical, respectful support.
She spends time learning what matters to each client before suggesting steps forward. Sessions emphasize clear goals and small, manageable changes.
Background and approach
Marcela believes people know their own lives best and she helps them build on existing strengths. Her work also covers issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, caregiver stress, family of origin problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She assists with grief, hospice and end-of-life concerns, guilt and shame, and challenges around money and life purpose.
This range lets her tailor conversations to the most pressing needs in a straightforward way. Marcela uses a mix of approaches depending on the situation. She draws on practical skills from cognitive behavioral methods, emotion regulation tools, and focused strategies to set and meet goals.
The aim is to create steps clients can use between sessions. With 15 years of experience and the Nevada LCPC credential, Marcela offers steady, attentive support for people facing complicated emotions and family-related stresses. She focuses on collaboration, respect, and realistic progress to help clients move forward.
How therapeutic approaches guide online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. It helps people who need space to tell their story and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and everyday stress.Marcela sees choosing an approach as a collaborative process. She will listen to goals and try different methods to see what fits. Together they set priorities and adjust work as needed so therapy matches the person’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit counseling into busy family schedules or when travel is difficult. The variety of options allows clients to pick the way they engage that feels most comfortable while still working on clear goals and skills.
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.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
