About Cecilia
Cecilia Andrews is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas who centers her work on practical, collaborative therapy. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Cecilia invites people to bring honest concerns and starts by helping them name what matters most.
She draws on Motivational Interviewing to support change and build motivation. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses. Client-Centered Therapy shapes how she listens, making room for each person's experience without judgment.
Cecilia has three years of professional experience. In sessions she helps people talk through difficult feelings and make small, manageable steps forward. She often works on communication habits, setting boundaries, and rebuilding confidence after loss or separation.
Her additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, money and financial issues, and mood concerns. She also addresses guilt, shame, impulsivity, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
She keeps language simple and practical. Expect a conversational approach that emphasizes your priorities, clear goals, and doable strategies you can try between sessions.

How motivational and acceptance-based approaches work online
Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. It uses questions and reflection to build motivation and reduce resistance, which can help with things like low motivation, procrastination, or making lifestyle changes.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It emphasizes values and small actions that move a person toward what matters, useful for anxiety, grief, and life transitions.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes careful, nonjudgmental listening so people feel heard. That foundation supports work on communication, self-esteem, and relationship worries.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That could mean focusing more on motivation at first, then adding ACT or CBT tools depending on progress.
If you want online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. The practical benefit of remote work is that it can fit into a busy schedule more easily, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about how sessions can be structured to match your routine and goals. -
