About Wendy
Wendy Salazar is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, practicing in Texas with 20 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship problems, parenting concerns, grief, trauma and related life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Wendy describes her work as collaborative. She treats people as the experts on their own lives and focuses on practical ways to build on existing strengths. Conversations look at thoughts, behaviors, relationships and the effects of difficult experiences.
Her approach blends several methods so sessions can shift with the issue at hand. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and testing new ways of behaving. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the focus on the person’s priorities and what feels most useful to them. Mindfulness techniques are used to slow down stress reactions and notice strong feelings without acting on them.
Wendy has worked across clinical settings for two decades, including work with mood disorders, ADHD, trauma, and parenting challenges. She also supports people dealing with first responder stresses, immigration-related strain, and caregiver burnout. Her background includes supervising newer clinicians in Texas.
People who come to her often want practical tools for day-to-day life. Typical work includes managing anger and frustration, improving communication, handling life transitions, and reducing anxiety so everyday routines feel more manageable.
Approaches you may use online with Wendy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's priorities and choices. It involves listening, reflecting what matters to you, and shaping sessions around your goals. This approach is useful when someone wants practical support for anger, relationships, or parenting concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, actions and feelings interact. Sessions include testing new behaviors, trying small experiments, and learning skills to interrupt anger or anxiety cycles. CBT tends to fit people who want clear, step-by-step strategies.
Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity. It helps people notice rising anger or stress and choose a different response before acting. These short exercises are often mixed into regular sessions.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches match their needs, goals and preferences. That may mean combining strategies or adjusting the plan as progress happens.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find online meetings help maintain momentum between in-person visits, though specific formats should be verified with the practice.
