About Svetlana

Svetlana Rangel is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who supports people managing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, and career or life transitions.

Background and approach

She also addresses issues such as eating and sleeping difficulties, self-esteem, anger, compassion fatigue, and multicultural or immigration-related concerns. Her practice includes attention to divorce and separation, forgiveness work, guilt and shame, first responder and veteran issues, and other culturally influenced struggles.

Her counseling style is warm, interactive, and rooted in respect and compassion. Svetlana blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and solution-focused methods, and she is trained in EMDR for trauma-focused work.

She aims to collaborate with each person to craft a tailored plan that fits their needs and goals. Fluent in English and Russian, she draws on bilingual and bicultural personal experience to inform culturally aware care.

With three years of clinical experience and licensure as an LPC (TX LPC 82680), she offers sessions through a variety of online formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify values and build psychological flexibility through mindful action, often supporting people facing anxiety, stress, or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and related concerns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method used to process distressing memories and reduce the emotional intensity tied to past events.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with the client to explore goals, symptoms, and personal preferences, and then adapt techniques from these evidence-informed approaches to create a tailored plan that fits the client's needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules or to access care from different locations within Texas. These options allow for ongoing support and varied communication styles so clients can find the format that helps them engage most comfortably with the therapeutic work.
