About me

You are worthy of this work and I am so glad you are reaching out for therapy! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Therapist in Texas who uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychosocial Dynamics Theory and other modalities to help you find meaningful advances toward the progress you are seeking. I have worked with individuals and families for over 15 years as a social worker and specialize in Solution Focused Outcomes because I want you to have practical ways to apply the forward movement you desire in your life, career, family and relationships. I have both my Bachelor and Master degrees in Social Work from Our Lady of the Lake University and graduated in 2005. I come from a multicultural background and have a multiracial family who are a part of a proud LGBTQ+ community, so I understand the dynamics that go into working daily to support each other where we are now while continuing to grow together. I hope my experience both professionally and personally will give insight as we journey together. Let me know how I can help!

This may sound a little dramatic, but Jarah has drastically helped me improve the quality of my life! She’s helped me see life through a healthier lens. Jarah’s helped me work through some of my shortcomings while still validating my feelings. I always feel extremely comfortable talking to her. 11/10 would recommend her!

I am grateful for meeting Jarah, she is a great listener. She listens then provides suggestions and give you healthy coping mechanisms and doesn’t just give you the answer.

Have never had an experience of not seeing a therapist face-to-face, and yet, somehow, Jarah Torrez-Williams pulls it off. I'm 75 and have had therapists throughout my life, and Jarah is in the top 5 that I've had.
