About Liliana

Liliana Palacios, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor in Texas with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with relationship problems, anger, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. Sessions are available in English and Spanish for people who want clearer communication, less reactivity, and more manageable day-to-day coping.

She helps people untangle the patterns that keep them stuck. That can mean looking at how stress, past hurts, or unspoken expectations fuel repeated arguments. Liliana also supports people facing trauma, addictions, parenting strain, caregiving stress, or the demands of chronic illness.

Her work blends practical skills with reflective conversation. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and existential ideas to help clients notice thoughts and change unhelpful habits. Sessions often include teaching specific strategies, trying new communication moves, and checking what works in real life.

Originally from Mexico City, she trained in organizational psychology before earning a master’s in professional counseling in the U.S. Early volunteer work with crisis services and community mental health shaped her practice. Over the years she has supported survivors of trauma, people facing domestic violence histories, and caregivers of aging or ill relatives.

Liliana frames therapy as a collaborative effort. She listens, offers direct feedback, and practices interventions alongside clients so they can test changes between sessions. If someone wants to reduce anger, repair trust, or manage stress more effectively, she focuses on clear steps and steady progress.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, and then commit to actions that match their values. It can help with anger that keeps pulling someone into the same fights. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and practicing different responses, which is useful for managing stress, anxiety, and mood shifts. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance tools for handling intense moments.

Finding the right approach is part of treatment. Liliana will work together with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and situation. That collaborative process includes trying strategies, reviewing what helped, and adjusting the plan over time.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Others appreciate that teaching skills and practicing communication moves can be done in real time from wherever is most practical. Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep therapy consistent with daily life and responsibilities.
