About Julia
Julia Sauceda is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 16 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem and guilt and shame. Julia offers sessions in English and Spanish and draws on her background in education and counseling to support practical change.
Julia trained in counseling after completing a bachelor’s degree in education at the University of Clear Lake and a master’s degree in counseling at the University of Houston Clear Lake. She also spent a decade teaching in bilingual and special education, which shaped how she explains ideas and breaks problems into steps.
Her approach centers on a person-centered style. She listens first, then helps people name what matters and choose what to try next. Conversations focus on what feels stuck now - like repeating patterns, trouble saying no, or heavy guilt linked to past events.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and concrete. Julia will work with practical skills for managing anxiety and stress, talk through difficult emotions such as shame, and help people practice communication or boundary setting. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques adapted to each person’s situation.
People who prefer Spanish may request sessions in that language. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking flow.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Person-centered therapy focuses on attentive listening and working from the client’s priorities. Online sessions invite the same slow, client-led conversation where the therapist reflects back what she hears and helps set practical next steps. This approach helps when shame makes it hard to start talking because the pace is set by the person rather than the clinician.Evidence-based therapeutic techniques include skill-focused work for anxiety and stress such as breathing and grounding exercises, and cognitive-based strategies that help people notice and test unhelpful self-judgments. These techniques aim to reduce the immediate intensity of emotions and to change patterns that keep someone feeling stuck. They are commonly used for trauma, mood, and guilt-related concerns.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk about options, try a method for a few sessions, and adjust based on how it fits the client’s goals and comfort. She draws on her counseling and education background to explain methods in clear step-by-step terms.
Confirm current session options before booking. Sessions can help fit work and life obligations by removing travel time and allowing scheduling flexibility. Some people find phone sessions useful when they prefer not to be on camera, and other formats may offer shorter check-ins when a full session won’t fit the day.
