Rebecca Salazar, LCSW - Therapist in Texas

About Rebecca

Rebecca Salazar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with deep experience helping people through hard moments. She practices from Texas and has worked in psychotherapy for more than two decades. Her approach is practical and straightforward, aimed at making therapy feel manageable for busy lives and worried parents.

She keeps sessions warm and interactive. Rebecca sees therapy as a partnership where the person’s goals guide the work. She aims to listen without judgment and to respond with respect and plain language.

Background and approach

Many people find that tone helpful when they first reach out. Rebecca uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and client-centered therapy. That means she helps people notice patterns of thinking, build practical skills for handling feelings, and shape sessions around each person’s priorities.

She also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing when those fit the goals. Her range of concerns includes stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, and coping with life changes. She also has experience with caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and communication or family problems.

Rebecca aims to help people clarify next steps and practice new ways of coping. Sessions can feel like short-term coaching or longer-term therapy depending on what a person needs. Rebecca emphasizes collaboration on a clear plan and practical skills that people can use between sessions.

Her style is steady, compassionate, and goal-focused.

How Rebecca’s approaches translate to online therapy

Rebecca often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to change them; this approach can help with anxiety, low mood, and stress. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills, which teach clear techniques for managing intense emotions and improving tolerance for distress.

She practices in a client-centered way as well, which means sessions are shaped around each person’s concerns and goals. Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Rebecca collaborates with clients to decide what methods to try and adjusts the plan based on what is helpful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, continue work from home, or use shorter check-ins between longer sessions. Many people find the variety helps them stay consistent and apply new skills in everyday situations.

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.
