About Marta
Marta Villarreal is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She supports people with stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Marta works in English and focuses on practical steps people can take to manage hard moments.
She listens for the patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions typically look at what happens day to day and what people already do that helps. Marta encourages clients to build on their strengths and to test small changes between sessions. Conversations are straightforward and paced to the person’s comfort level.
Marta has experience with adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress. She also addresses body image, eating and food-related worries, and the emotional effects of divorce or domestic violence. Her work includes topics like guilt, shame, isolation, jealousy, and finding life purpose.
When trauma and abuse are part of the story, Marta focuses on safety and on steps that help a person feel more steady in everyday life. She supports parents and caregivers who are worn down by ongoing responsibilities. The practical focus helps people get through difficult days while working toward longer-term changes.
Marta asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not accepted at this time.
How Marta’s approaches translate to online work
Many evidence-based techniques focus on changing thoughts, behaviors, and coping skills to reduce worry and improve day-to-day functioning. Cognitive approaches help people notice and test anxious thoughts so they feel less controlling. Behavioral strategies break worries into manageable steps, which can be useful for social anxiety or phobias because they encourage repeated, small practice.When difficult events are part of someone’s history, approaches that build present-moment stability and gradual processing can help reduce reactivity. Those methods focus on grounding skills, pacing exposure to hard memories or situations, and strengthening supports in everyday life. Marta will work with each person to choose which approaches to try first and will adjust based on how things go. That decision is collaborative and based on the client’s goals, tolerances, and life demands.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten a commute, or use a phone session when video feels like too much. It also lets people continue regular sessions while managing work, family, or medical commitments. Licensed professionals help clients adapt techniques to the online setting and plan practical steps between meetings.
