Myrna Salinas, MS

Licensed Professional Counselor

Ever since Myrna Salinas was young, she knew she wanted to pursue a career that made a meaningful difference in people’s lives. This passion led her to begin as an educator and later return to school to earn a Master of Science in Counseling and Development from Texas Woman’s University. After obtaining her degree, Myrna transitioned from being a bilingual teacher to a school counselor, a path that eventually brought her to LifeWorks Counseling. She is deeply committed to the well-being of her clients, always going above and beyond to meet their unique needs.

Myrna works with adults, adolescents and children.  Myrna treats and helps individuals presenting with anxiety related disorders; mood disorders; identity and self-esteem; family changes, dysregulation disorder, grief, behavioral issues, ADD/ADHD and behavioral issues.  Myrna’s professional approach is a mix of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), solution-focused techniques and other techniques. She uses a variety of therapeutic modalities tailored to each client’s needs, including play therapy, sand tray therapy, and talk therapy, creating a safe and supportive environment for healing and growth.

Life can be overwhelming and exhausting at times, but Myrna is here to guide you through challenges and help you navigate life’s changes. Her goal is to help clients understand themselves more deeply, develop resilience, and achieve greater emotional well-being. Myrna is bilingual and delighted to offer counseling services in both English and Spanish, ensuring accessibility and comfort for her clients.

When not seeing clients, Myrna enjoys spending time with her husband, Kyle, and their son, David. They often visit family in Myrna’s hometown of Friona, Texas, and are passionate about exploring new restaurants, attending local events, bowling, and spending time outdoors at the park. As a die-hard Cowboys fan, Myrna also loves cheering on her favorite team and sharing the experience with her family.
