About Nora
Nora Tellez is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas with 16 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and the aftermath of physical, sexual, or emotional abuse. Nora aims to make the first step feel manageable and respectful of each person's pace.
She takes a comforting and supportive approach in sessions. Conversations focus on what matters to the person sitting across from her. Nora listens closely, helps clarify problems, and works with clients to set realistic goals.
Background and approach
Nora uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the person's needs central. That means decisions about direction and pace happen together. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and helps build practical skills for change.
In therapy she offers clear, straightforward plans that match a person's goals. Plans often include simple tools to handle stress, manage mood swings, and improve sleep. She also addresses relationship strain and parenting stress in ways that fit everyday life.
Nora supports people coping with grief, addictions, anger, self-harm concerns, bipolar mood patterns, and seasonal mood shifts. She helps with compassion fatigue and the challenges of big life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish to serve a wider range of residents in Texas.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities and comforts. In practice this means the therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what she hears, and helps people shape goals that feel right for them. It can help when someone needs empathy, steady support, and a clear space to talk about hard experiences.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people recognize patterns in thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Sessions usually involve identifying unhelpful thinking, testing new behaviors, and building small practical skills for anxiety, mood, sleep, or coping with stress.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nora will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels comfortable. Together they choose techniques and pace so progress fits the client’s life and needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful when face-to-face interaction helps rapport. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging work for brief updates, written reflection, or when a client prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and reach licensed professionals across Texas.
