LPC, 15 years of experience
Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor for 13 yrs based at Laredo, TX. I can help you with issues related to self-esteem, grief, anxiety, depression, and past trauma. I work with trauma victims and women that suffered domestic violence. Currently, working with veterans and issues with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have experience working with teenagers and issues of self-image, self-harm, depression, and anxiety. It will be my pleasure to help guide you in your journey to the best version of yourself!
In our first session, I get to know the client and her needs. The focus is to build rapport and discuss treatment plan goals. The first session is for you to feel comfortable in session and build a rapport for future sessions. Any questions and concerns will be addressed until you feel comdortable to continue this healing process.
My greatest strengths as a therapist is to listen and empathize with clients.
I love working with individuals that need tools to improve their quality of life. Women and teenagers are my strengths.
I have used Trauma Focused CBT with children, teenagers, and adults with a history of past trauma and domestic violence.
I have years of experience working with adolescents,veterans, and adults with history of abuse and self-esteem issues.
I use different approaches depending on the client and the presenting problem.

Ms. Valencia is a fantastic provider who is thoughtful, genuine, and can establish rapport quickly and effectively. She creates a safe environment so that one gets the most of time spent with her. She is thorough, considerate and very quick to grasp information and context. I particularly enjoy her sense of humor and how she can identify nuances in all of our exchanges. Miss Terry is an effective communicator and therapist. She is always respectful and a wonderful therapist.
