More about Cecilia
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
As a licensed therapist in Texas, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients work through challenges like anxiety, trauma, self-esteem issues, and interpersonal dynamics. I am trained and experienced in various trauma-based approaches including EMDR. I have extensive experience supporting adults and teens working through difficult life transitions, relationship patterns, and personal growth.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate and collaborative, drawing from evidence-based practices to help clients develop deeper self-understanding and resilience. I'm particularly skilled in addressing trauma, panic disorders, mood challenges, and issues related to body image, impulsivity, and personal boundaries.
I believe healing happens through genuine connection and empowerment. My goal is to create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop healthy coping strategies, and cultivate self-compassion. Whether you're struggling with stress, processing past experiences, or seeking personal growth, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional expertise.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall rating:
Cecilia is easy to talk to and seems to understand my main concerns.
She's great and is adapting swimmingly to my needs, especially during this time of COVID-19.
Cecilia has been a life saver for me! When I started talking to her I couldn't get through 15 minutes without crying over my situation. She was able to give me positive, USEFUL feedback while making me feel like what I was going through was normal and surpass-able. I'm in a MUCH better place thanks to her understanding and perceptiveness. I would recommend her to anyone!
For the short while I've been under her care. I would say she reviews anything that I submit and gives me thoughtful insight or asks for me to bring more details about points that could possibly be a source. She's help me further strengthen the bond of my support group and allowed me to break some barriers I unwillingly made. It may take time however, working with her I believe we can find the underlying cause and allow me to break free from my chains.
My first time getting counselling has been a great experience with Cecilia Clowdus. I recommend her 100% she really has a way of making you feel comfortable. I never felt like I was talking to a 'stranger' it felt more like I was talking to a friend. Cecilia really takes her time and brings great points to our conversations. She always knows what to say and how to say it.
Cecilia is insightful and is good at asking the questions that get you to the nut of the issue.
Cecilia is very empathetic and she always tries to approach my issues in a logical manner, which helps me understand that what I’m dealing with is complex and that seeking professional help is essential. She is a good listener and I feel like she genuinely relates to and cares about how I feel.
Cecilia has been really helpful in helping me organize my thoughts. She really listens well and goes beyond to make sure that I get the therapy I need. Without a doubt Cecilia is a good therapist and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a therapist who is really passionate about helping people overcome their challenges.
Cecilia is kind, empathetic, understanding, and strategic. She helps me organize my thoughts, goals, needs and emotions. It has been a joy working with her. I am keeping her as my counselor until she retires.
