About Norma
Dr. Norma Reyes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years working in behavioral health and counseling since 2014. She focuses on stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and mood concerns such as depression. She also helps people facing relationship and family challenges, work or career stress, and trauma or abuse.
Dr. Reyes draws on a mix of therapy and adult education to guide practical change. Sessions tend to focus on clear steps and skill practice rather than long, abstract talk. She uses conversational coaching and therapeutic exercises to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors.
Her background includes a Ph.D. in Adult, Professional, and Community Education alongside counseling practice. That combination informs work on career goals, life transitions, and skills for communication. Clients often look for help sorting priorities, rebuilding confidence, or managing caregiver strain.
Approaches used include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, hypnotherapy, and mindfulness techniques. These methods are used to address thinking patterns, emotional responses, and practical habits that affect day-to-day functioning.
Dr. Reyes offers services in English and Spanish and works with people who bring multicultural or adoption and foster care concerns. Her practice addresses practical problems like money worries, postpartum mood changes, and seasonal mood shifts while also covering deeper issues such as guilt, shame, and forgiveness.
People starting with her are asked to describe their goals and recent stressors so sessions can focus on small, actionable steps toward better coping and clearer decision making.
How CBT, Client-Centered Work, and EFT fit into online sessions
Dr. Reyes uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new responses. CBT sessions focus on specific patterns of thinking and on practicing small behavior changes that reduce stress or worry.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers on active listening and letting the person set the pace and topics. That approach helps when someone needs space to clarify goals or talk through parenting or life transition concerns.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used when relationships or strong feelings are a focus. EFT offers ways to name emotions and shift interaction patterns that keep conflict or distance in place.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will review goals, current challenges, and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Sessions can mix approaches as needs change over time.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten some check-ins, or avoid travel. Talk with the therapist about practical needs like shorter sessions, camera-off options, or scheduling around work and caregiving.
