About Graciela
Graciela Medrano-Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Graciela aims to meet clients where they are and treat each person with respect and compassion.
Her approach begins with a conversation about what matters to the client. She listens closely to understand current difficulties and personal values.
Background and approach
From there she tailors sessions to address practical problems and deeper questions about meaning and purpose. Graciela draws on several methods to fit different needs. She uses Client-Centered techniques to build a safe therapeutic relationship.
She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and develop new coping skills. Existential ideas help people examine life choices, responsibility, and what gives life meaning. Clients with trauma histories are offered trauma-focused interventions alongside mindfulness practices when appropriate.
Mindfulness work can help reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. Together these approaches aim to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. People who reach out can expect a collaborative process that balances practical steps with deeper reflection.
Graciela adjusts pace and focus based on each person’s goals, culture, and life circumstances. She welcomes conversations in English and also works with international clients through online formats. To begin, prospective clients provide a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Existential Therapy invites people to talk about meaning, choice, and the tensions in life. In online sessions this looks like guided conversation about values, life direction, and what matters most to the client. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so clients can explore feelings at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and then practices alternative ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs shift or new concerns arise.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different days and demands. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let clients share updates, get support between sessions, or use therapy in short bursts when schedules are tight. These options help people access consistent care from Texas or other locations without needing to travel.
