Justin Salcedo , LPC

Justin Salcedo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas, holding license TX LPC 78076. He holds a master’s degree in clinical psychology from Sam Houston State University and brings seven years of clinical experience to his work. His primary aims are to relieve suffering and help people build lives guided by their own values.

His background includes work across multiple settings, including university counseling, a psychiatric hospital, treatment for severe substance abuse and co-occurring mental health concerns, teaching and supervising at the university level, and individual practice. Those varied experiences inform an adaptable approach to care and a familiarity with complex clinical presentations.

He has provided psychotherapy for a wide range of concerns, including depression, suicidal thinking, anxiety, traumatic stress, substance use and other addictions, mood and psychotic disorders, grief, and feelings of loneliness or meaninglessness. He also addresses relationship and family issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, self-esteem and body-image struggles, gender dysphoria, and challenges such as attachment or abandonment issues, impulsivity, isolation, and compassion fatigue.

His therapeutic stance is warm and non-judgmental, focused on empowering clients to make their own decisions and move toward value-driven living. He uses evidence-based methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – a contemporary approach rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy principles – along with CBT, DBT, mindfulness therapy, motivational interviewing, and client-centered techniques. Treatment is individualized to identify underlying processes contributing to distress and to develop practical strategies that align with each person’s goals.

He emphasizes the importance of a strong therapeutic relationship as a key factor in positive outcomes. By creating a collaborative space to explore thoughts and behaviors, he aims to help people gain distance from distressing thinking and build actions that reflect what matters most to them. Justin provides services in English and is not accepting new clients at this time.

Could remote therapy be a good fit for you?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.

One of the main advantages is flexibility. Individuals can connect with licensed professionals in the format that works best for them: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options can make it easier to integrate therapy into a busy schedule or to access care from a preferred setting.

Licensed professionals offer the ability to change therapists if a different fit is desired, and many people find that the convenience and adaptability of remote sessions support consistent engagement in treatment. If you are considering therapy, exploring online options with a qualified therapist may be a practical and effective step toward addressing your concerns.
