About Tuyet Noriega

Tuyet Noriega is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Iowa with 12 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families. She focuses on helping people navigate anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, domestic violence, parenting concerns, LGBTQ issues, and a wide range of other life challenges. Her practice also addresses areas such as grief, intimacy, self-esteem, ADHD, bipolar conditions, compassion fatigue, and career and family-related struggles.

Her therapeutic approach blends structure and flexibility. She typically uses an interactive and direct style while allowing clients to lead sessions when appropriate, adapting methods to meet each person’s needs. She draws from several evidence-informed modalities - including client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), existential approaches, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic therapy, and trauma-focused therapy - to tailor care to individual goals and concerns.

Tuyet emphasizes building healthier communication and firmer boundaries, and she works toward helping people increase self-confidence and make choices that better align with their values. She brings compassion and practical guidance to sessions and is experienced addressing complex family dynamics, adoption and foster care issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, and other relational patterns.

She holds the LMHC credential, which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and applies clinical training to support clients through life transitions and longstanding difficulties. Tuyet is not currently accepting new clients.

Online therapy can be a practical option for people facing common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or life transitions. For many of these issues, remote sessions can be an effective alternative to traditional in-person meetings and may deliver comparable benefits for day-to-day mental health support.

One major advantage of remote therapy is flexibility. Individuals can connect with licensed professionals in the format that works best for them - whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to integrate regular therapeutic work into a busy schedule or to maintain continuity of care during life changes.

Licensed therapists offer varied clinical approaches and many are able to adapt their methods for remote formats. People who try online therapy can switch therapists if they feel they need a different fit, and many find that the convenience and consistency of remote sessions help them make steady progress toward their goals.
