About Liliana
Liliana Palacios, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor in Texas with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with relationship strain, grief, depression, anxiety, parenting stress, addiction concerns, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish to support communication in the client's preferred language.
She focuses on practical work around relationship patterns, communication problems, and intimacy-related issues. Liliana also helps people cope with trauma and abuse, abandonment wounds, caregiver stress, and the emotional load of chronic illness. Parents who need help managing parenting stress or concerns related to autism spectrum issues may find her background relevant.
Her approach combines several evidence-based methods. Liliana uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clarify values and take actionable steps. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.
Her early training in organizational psychology and later studies in professional counseling shaped a practical, conversational style. Liliana spent years volunteering with crisis services and community mental health programs while raising two daughters, experience that informs how she supports caregivers and parents.
Clients can expect a direct but respectful clinician who listens and helps set clear goals. The focus is on understanding patterns, building communication skills, and creating manageable changes that fit everyday life.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values. Online ACT sessions often include values exercises and behavioral experiments to practice between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; online CBT commonly uses worksheets, thought records, and structured homework to build new habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Liliana will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That plan can change over time as progress and priorities become clearer, and she will explain the rationale for any tools or exercises she suggests.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full visit is not practical. It also lets people use worksheets and exercises between sessions to practice new skills in day-to-day life.
