About Cierra
Cierra Batiste welcomes people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, mood swings, addiction, grief, and relationship or parenting pressures. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 13 years of experience. Cierra writes plainly and listens closely to what matters most to each person who reaches out.
Cierra uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking and to build different habits.
How Cierra works
She blends that with client-centered listening so people feel heard as they try new skills. <brHer background includes work in trauma, depression, substance use concerns, and crisis settings. She has experience supporting people with obsessive and compulsive patterns, process addictions, personality-related challenges, and issues connected to military and veteran life. This range shapes how she tailors steps to each person's situation.
In sessions she focuses on concrete goals such as improving sleep, reducing panic, managing anger, or steadier mood regulation. She also helps with career stress, intimacy concerns, and multicultural life stresses. Conversations are collaborative - goals and techniques are chosen together.
Outside of practice, Cierra enjoys outdoor activities and exploring new restaurants and cultures. She sees counseling as a practical partnership where small changes build better daily routines and relationships.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values despite uncomfortable feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and practicing different behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, mood disorders, sleep, and obsessive thoughts. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness, supporting emotion regulation and stress management.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, past efforts, and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. Sessions can mix methods so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single label on care.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth conversations and skills practice. Phone calls work when bandwidth is low or when being on camera is not desired. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or sharing thoughts between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.
