Marihelena Noguera, LMHC

Marihelena Noguera is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and intimacy-related issues. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make sessions straightforward and practical for people who want clear steps forward.

Marihelena draws on several approaches to match what each person needs. She often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and try new behaviors. She also brings motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas when people want short-term, goal-oriented work.

Sessions are shaped around personal goals. Marihelena helps clients work on self-esteem, body image, communication problems, codependency, jealousy, and forgiveness. She also supports people dealing with life changes, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, and concerns related to attention and focus such as ADHD.

With four years of clinical experience, Marihelena explains tools in plain language and helps people practice them between sessions. She emphasizes small, doable steps rather than big declarations.

People who choose her can expect a collaborative style that balances listening with practical exercises. Her work often blends acceptance, mindfulness, and behavior change so clients can move toward clearer priorities and better day-to-day coping.

Therapeutic approaches for online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies alongside commitment to change. It helps people notice where they are stuck, clarify their values, and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs evolve and progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy life by cutting travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or from different locations. It can also make shorter check-ins or weekly sessions more practical for people balancing work and family demands.
