About Norma
Dr. Norma Reyes is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 11 years of experience in behavioral health and counseling since 2014. She draws on a Ph.D. in Adult, Professional, and Community Education alongside clinical training to support people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, and life transitions.
Norma speaks English and Spanish and uses practical, easy-to-follow methods in sessions. She focuses on helping people manage work or school stress and the strain that comes with major life changes.
Background and approach
She also helps those dealing with depression, trauma and abuse, and challenges to self-esteem. Conversations in the room are aimed at clear next steps rather than only talking about problems. Her approach blends counseling with coaching.
That means she helps clients set realistic goals and practice new skills between sessions. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and from mindfulness to build calm and focus. Norma also uses emotionally-focused methods to sort through strong feelings and improve communication.
Hypnotherapy is another option she can offer for certain issues when it fits a client’s goals. These tools are adapted to each person’s situation. She has worked with clients around family and parenting concerns, including adoption and foster care, blended family issues, postpartum depression, and caregiver stress.
Sessions are practical and geared toward daily life, communication, and problem solving. People who choose her can expect a collaborative tone. The focus is on small, achievable changes that build confidence and help move toward clearer life purpose and better coping with stress.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building rapport so clients feel heard. It helps people clarify goals and make decisions with a therapist who follows their lead and offers supportive feedback.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress.
Emotionally-focused therapy helps people understand and work through strong emotions that affect relationships and communication. It can be helpful when family roles, attachment, or caregiving stress create repeated patterns of conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adjust methods as needed. That collaborative process helps make therapy feel tailored and meaningful.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, manage caregiving duties, or keep therapy consistent during life transitions. Many people find the variety of formats helps maintain momentum between sessions and practice new skills in daily life.
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.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)
Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
