Hi, and welcome! My name is Kashmere Castro. I am licensed (LPC) in Texas with 5+ years of professional work experience. I have worked with people of all backgrounds and ages addressing every day stressors, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, communication issues, trauma, cultural issues, lack of self esteem, & confidence. My goal is to increase your emotional awareness and resilience.
I offer a space for you to show up as you are as we explore the most significant thoughts, feelings, and experiences that continue to impact you. During our time together you will gain self-awareness, self-acceptance, self-confidence, deeper meaning, and above all...relief! I look forward to connecting with you!
I consider myself warm, humorous, casual, and will give you something to focus on for the week rather than assigning worksheets or homework. I often use Person-Centered Counseling and Psychodynamic Therapy to explore your everyday thoughts emotions, especially those shaped by unconscious patterns. We will work together to connect the dots and process what has been holding you back from feeling like your best self. From there, we'll create tailored methods to apply what you've learned. This will move you into the future with more confidence, trust, emotional resilience, and presence.
Diversity in all forms is valued here. I look forward to working with you!
