About Asly
Asly Guevara is an LPC who focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, trauma, or low self-esteem. She works to make therapy approachable and usable for day-to-day life.
Background and approach
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she practices from Texas. Her work centers on helping people notice what gets in the way of feeling steady and confident.
She uses mindfulness and client-centered methods to slow things down and create space to think. Gottman Method tools are part of her relationship-focused work when communication or family patterns are an issue.
Asly also uses EMDR strategies when past events keep resurfacing as distressing memories or physical reactions. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help people set small goals and build momentum between sessions.
The emphasis is on clear, achievable steps rather than long lectures. People can expect a calm, collaborative approach in session.
The therapist asks questions, listens closely, and offers exercises you can try at home. She helps clients practice self-compassion and build confidence over time.
Her background includes a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and about five years of clinical experience. That mix of training and hands-on work informs how she structures sessions and tailors tools to each person’s situation.
Asly encourages people to take the first step, however small. She partners with clients to set realistic goals and supports them through setbacks as well as progress.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Asly draws on a few core methods in online sessions. The Gottman Method offers concrete communication tools and exercises that can be practiced during video or phone sessions to address relationship and family patterns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on active listening and reflection, helping people feel heard and understood while they describe struggles and set personal goals. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is used when past events continue to cause distress; adapted EMDR techniques can help process memories during a video session under the therapist's guidance.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Asly will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and day-to-day life, then recommend or combine approaches that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is tracked.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for longer therapy work and interactive exercises, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins or support between sessions, and these options help people fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel.
