01About Ivanna
Ivanna Troch-Candelo is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing relationship strain, family conflict, trauma or abuse, grief, and career changes. She brings warmth and cultural sensitivity to sessions and values honest conversation. She speaks English and Spanish and works from Texas.
Ivanna focuses on helping clients notice patterns that get in the way, like avoidant or dependent tendencies, trouble with commitment, or control and communication problems. She guides people through processing guilt, shame, and losses, and through practical steps for rebuilding trust after trauma.
Background and approach
Her style is collaborative and direct. She aims to create an authentic connection and encourages clear communication between sessions. People can expect to work on specific skills, practice new ways of relating, and examine how family of origin and attachment shape current choices.
Ivanna has three years of clinical experience as an LPC, and she draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address both immediate concerns and longer-term patterns. She also supports those affected by immigration stress and first responder experiences. She invites clients to explore life transitions such as pregnancy, midlife changes, and early adult challenges.
Her approach centers on self-compassion and practical steps so people can move toward the changes they want.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online work and how they help
Ivanna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on relationship patterns and trauma recovery. One approach helps people identify attachment patterns and how those ways of relating affect current relationships; it often involves mapping past interactions and practicing new responses to reduce repeated conflict. Another approach targets processing trauma and strong emotions by helping clients name feelings, reduce shame, and create step-by-step plans for safer coping and recovery.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Ivanna will talk with each person about their goals, history, and preferences and then try strategies together to see what fits best. This means the plan can change over time as needs and progress become clearer.
Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and more consistent check-ins when life is busy. If you prefer to meet remotely, confirm the session formats Ivanna currently offers before booking so you know what to expect. Online sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when useful, and reduce travel time while keeping focus on skills, communication practice, and processing difficult experiences.
