In life, you can feel like you're at a crossroads. You're unsure of where to go, and sometimes, those roads can feel dangerous, especially if you're dealing with anxiety, depression, or any other mental disorder. A counselor based in Victoria can help you with this problem, and much more. 

Victoria is known as “the crossroads” because of its location between different cities. It’s a great way to symbolize life. Sometimes, you don't know which road to take, and you don't know where it leads. A counselor can be your map who can make the decision easier. By picking a road, you can be in a better place.

Cecelia A. Maurer MA, LPC I work with adults of any age, individuals only. I do not work with couples or families, although I do work with family and relationship issues. *** Hours: M-F 6:00am-3:00pm. Occasionally, I offer weekend appointments, however, on weekends I’m generally engaging in self-care, most likely out on a bicycle trail somewhere. I’m an early riser, and a true morning person, so I offer appointment times as early as 6am…or possibly earlier if needed. However, in the evening my brain is mush and I am all worded out- so I’m basically useless, therefore, my latest evening appt is 3:00pm. I am a Christian, and a professional counselor licensed in Texas with over 17 years of experience working as both a counselor and life/ academic coach. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, relationship issues, young adult issues, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I do not currently treat PTSD, severe mental health diagnosis, substance abuse issues. In addition to counseling, I have also worked in higher education as an adjunct instructor and as an academic coach. My counseling style is warm and interactive, yet straightforward. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and short-term, solution focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I offer appointments M-F 6:00am -3:00pm Change can be difficult but if you are ready to take the first step, I will be happy to help and support you in that effort. I look forward to working with you!

I assist adults and teens from various backgrounds to realize their fullest potential in life through the development of healthy relationships with both their family and community. My counseling approach is simple: I focus on the therapeutic relationship between counselor and client first – trust is the connection that will open the doors to a deeper state of healing. I am convinced that, for most people, a sense of belonging is foundational to psychological well-being and I aim to support my clients in discovering their identity so they know that they belong. I believe that when we know our identity, we are able to experience acceptance, integration, and wholeness. Some of my clients struggle with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and addictions. I also work with families to improve communication and connection. I believe that combining the client's faith and spirituality into their mental health counseling will help their recovery process. When I am not in session with clients, I can be found with my family at a nearby park or gym or in the kitchen cooking something yummy.
