About Cecelia

Cecelia Maurer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 14 years of experience working with adults. She works with individuals on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, anger, career challenges, and ADHD. Sessions address family and family-of-origin issues but she does not provide couple or family therapy.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. In sessions she listens, reflects what she hears, and helps people notice what matters to them. She uses practical exercises and short-term goal work to build skills for setting boundaries, handling anger, and managing anxiety.

Cecelia also brings experience from higher education and academic coaching into her work. That background supports clients who are navigating career decisions, returning to school, or adjusting to life-stage changes. She keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what a person wants to change.

Her style is direct and interactive. She offers morning appointment times during weekdays and asks people to plan around Central Time scheduling. Conversations may include values clarification, small behavioral experiments, and brief homework between sessions.

People looking for help with codependency-related patterns - such as people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or losing oneself in relationships - will find practical skills and clear steps to try. Before booking, confirm current session options and scheduling details.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their values and choose actions that match those values, even when feelings are difficult. It often involves noticing thoughts and trying small experiments to live in line with what matters.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on understanding a person's perspective and reflecting it back so they can clarify what they want. This approach helps when someone needs to sort out confidence, self-worth, or decisions about relationships or career.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs and preferences and try methods that fit those goals. Decisions about which tools to use are made collaboratively rather than prescribed up front.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a morning routine, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins between appointments. It can also allow sessions without video when audio works better, or adapt exercises for a phone or video visit depending on what helps someone stay engaged and consistent with their goals.
