Asly Guevara , LPC

Asly Guevara is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) working from Texas with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and self-esteem concerns. She also addresses women's issues and supports people handling family problems and caregiver stress. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Asly uses mindfulness and motivational strategies to help people notice patterns and try new responses. She blends client-centered work with structured tools so clients set the pace and goals. When trauma is part of the story, she may integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing approaches to reduce distress tied to difficult memories.

In sessions she emphasizes practical skills like grounding, emotional regulation, and clearer communication. She helps people build confidence, cope with panic or intense anxiety, and repair strained relationships. For those facing immigration stressors or disaster-related strain, she listens for what feels most urgent and workable in daily life.

Her style aims to be collaborative and straightforward. People are invited to talk through values, setbacks, and small steps forward. Asly frames therapy as teamwork where clients lead and she offers tools, feedback, and encouragement.

For someone juggling parenting pressures, young adult transitions, or the lasting impact of abuse, Asly focuses on concrete changes. She helps craft short-term strategies and longer-term goals so clients can notice progress between sessions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's perspective. In practice this means the therapist reflects what matters most to the client, helps clarify goals, and supports choices to try at home or work. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is used to reduce distress tied to traumatic memories by combining focused talk with guided bilateral stimulation; it can help people who struggle with trauma symptoms and intense memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods to try based on their history, goals, and what feels manageable. Plans are revisited so methods can change as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility across formats like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for skill practice and emotional support. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when movement or visuals are distracting. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework review, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while preserving continuity of care.
