About Ana
Ana Ortiz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Texas with 14 years of experience. She works with people on stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Her background includes work as a rehab counselor, advocate, and therapist. That experience involved supporting people with brain injury, chronic pain, and recovery from domestic violence. She has also helped people facing career and vocational challenges and those coping with grief and life changes.
Ana uses a mix of clinical approaches. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, Client-Centered methods, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused approaches. In practical terms this means she helps people notice thought patterns, strengthen close relationships, and build skills for emotional regulation.
Her style is interactive and goal oriented. She works with clients to set clear steps and tools they can use between sessions. Conversations focus on everyday problems like sleeping, eating, parenting stress, and workplace strain.
People who come with complicated histories often get both skill-building and time to process painful events. Ana also addresses concerns such as body image, codependency, caregiver stress, and substance use. The emphasis is on manageable changes and clearer communication.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how past close relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice attachment needs and practice new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It offers concrete exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build healthier routines. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on emotions in relationships and helps people name feelings and improve connection. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review goals, try methods, and adapt the plan together. Clients and the therapist decide which approaches fit the concern and the pace of progress. Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. Some formats can be better for quick check-ins or for people who prefer not to be on camera. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver therapy that focuses on skill practice, emotional processing, and communication work in ways that match daily life.03
