About Liliana

Liliana Palacios is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish for people looking for practical ways to cope and change patterns.

She helps individuals who feel stuck in recurring relationship patterns or overwhelmed by responsibilities. She clarifies what matters most, then focuses on skills and decisions that reduce stress and improve daily functioning. Topics include communication problems, intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, blended family issues, and managing caregiving strain.

Liliana draws on several evidence-informed approaches to guide sessions. She uses acceptance and mindfulness-based strategies alongside cognitive behavioral exercises to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses client-centered techniques to listen, reflect, and help people arrive at their own solutions.

Her background began in Organizational Psychology in Mexico City before she moved to the United States and completed a Master’s in Professional Counseling. Early volunteer work in crisis services and community mental health informed her focus on trauma, grief, and practical support for caregivers and parents of children on the autism spectrum.

In sessions she balances direct feedback with active listening. Clients can expect clear goals, coping strategies, and step-by-step work on communication or emotional regulation. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying personal values to guide concrete action. It can help with anxiety, loss, and decisions that come up in blended households.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for depression, stress, and recurring relationship patterns.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes attentive listening and reflection so people can find their own solutions. This approach supports clearer communication and self-understanding in situations like co-parenting or becoming a stepparent.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether to focus on acceptance and values, cognitive restructuring, skills training, or a blend of methods.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking as available options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel. Licensed professionals adapting these methods online aim to keep sessions focused on practical skills, clearer communication, and manageable steps for everyday life.
