Yesenia is patient, a good listener, and has a vibrant, healthy energy. Our sessions are always fruitful, because she is eager to understand and she is also eager to relate things together. She asks amazing questions that are super timely and really steer the conversation in the right direction. Yesenia is reassuring, but also can easily identify opportunities for growth and improvement as well. If an issue or a theme arises, Yesenia immediately thinks of related materials that would be beneficial to me as a patient- whether that is a takeaway, a worksheet, or a book! Thank you Yesenia. These past three weeks and sessions have been amazing.

Yesenia is my very first therapist and has been helping me alot in my journey of self analyzing, healing. She's completely transparent and is always respectful, when offering her views on certain topics. Plus she goes the extra mile and responds to my messages or comments on my journals which is extremely helpful with the issues I came to therapy in the first place. She is becoming an invaluable help to my metal well being. I want to continue working with her as long as I am able too. Thank you Yesenia! You help me so much!
More about Yesenia
- 16 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
Hello, my name is Yesenia, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (licensed in Texas), with 16 years of counseling experience (13 years, as a Licensed Professional Counselor). A majority of my counseling experience includes helping individuals with anxiety, life changes, relationship problems, and self-esteem issues. I will work with you to create a safe environment where your thoughts and feelings may be shared freely, while receiving constructive feedback, tools, emotional support, and unconditional positive regard, as needed, throughout the course of your therapy. Thank you for having the courage to seek help, and for taking the first critical and empowering steps toward self-improvement. I look forward to working with you and supporting you to achieve your goals.
Regarding my schedule of availability for virtual or phone sessions, I am usually available on Sundays, from 1 PM to 6 PM, and you may schedule your weekly virtual/phone sessions 10 or more hours in advance. To schedule your sessions, you may click on my schedule of availability, and select a time slot (from the options provided) that will work best for you.
As for message response time, I usually respond to messages at least once per work day, and do not usually respond to messages during my personal time (away from work). Upon my return to work, I will respond to your message at the start or end of that work day. If I do not respond immediately, please be patient, as I may be attempting to respond to other clients. If you are experiencing a crisis, are having suicidal thoughts, or you or someone else is currently in danger, and are needing immediate support or safety intervention, please call 911 ( emergency services) or 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline), or go to the nearest hospital, accordingly.
Lastly, regarding my preferred mode of communication for our therapy sessions, I prefer and strongly recommend virtual sessions, which allows me to observe your nonverbal communication, and to more fully understand what you are feeling &/or what you are trying to express. Most importantly, our virtual sessions may allow us to have a more personable experience, which may ultimately enhance your therapeutic process and outcome. However, if you prefer to opt out of the virtual sessions as our main form of communication, please feel free to address this concern with me, so that we may make appropriate arrangements. If necessary, you may consider requesting another therapist who may better suit your communication preference.
Take great care, and I look forward to working with you soon.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I have really enjoyed my sessions with Yesenia, she’s honest, respectful, and helps me find amazing ways to understand and respond to the true roots of my trauma and guides me to the personal growth I’m looking for. She works with me with innovative techniques and ensures I participate in ways that can help me see and dissect the things I’m saying
Understanding, encouraging, helpful and knowledgeable. Perfect for what I need. Listened well and understood my needs based on the communication given. Couldn’t ask for more.
