19 years of experience

I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in Texas with over 19 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and parenting problems. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with relationship concerns. As a trained therapist in Europe, South America and the United states I am comfortable working with individuals in both Spanish and English. My approach is informed by my eclectic experiences. Specifically, I see treatment as a co-created process, drawing from state-of-the-art interventions and individual needs. Within the therapeutic relationship, I empower clients to gain insight and make lasting change. Attending therapy for relationship issues can be scary. I know choosing the right therapist can be a difficult and frustrating process. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Just visiting this site and looking through profiles represents a major step towards improvement. Because I approach the work of psychotherapy from a systemic perspective, I am fortunate to work with children and teens in tandem with parent support work. I look forward to working with you!

Trained in a scientist-practitioner model, I utilize empirically-based interventions to help my clients overcome life's inevitable challenges. When unexpected events happen in life many people turn to negative ways of coping with depression, stress, anger, or anxiety. Finding help can be a difficult process. I hope that as your therapist we can work together on exploring how to best address your stressors, symptoms, and concerns. I tailor my approach to my patient's needs in order to help provide the tools and guidance to manage negative feelings, emotions, or impulses in more positive and productive ways. I have over 25 years of experience working with youth, adults, and older adults in individual counseling, family therapy, group and couples counseling. My areas of expertise include, but are not limited to, working with at-risk youth and their families, trauma, addiction, relationship issues, health(mind-body) and rehabilitative psychology as well as depression, anxiety, and/or acute stress. I hope that I can be of assistance to you during your time of need. My theoretical approach is mainly cognitive behavioral, however, I integrate and personalize my interventions according to my clients specific needs and desired outcomes via incorporation of humanistic-client centered, rational emotive behavioral, interpersonal, mindfulness methods. I am culturally aware and am fluent in Spanish. I understand the culture, mores and idiosyncrasies of Latinos. In synopsis, if you are asking yourself what is counseling and is it right for me then I highly encourage the following caveat: it is a commitment to a comprehensive, multi-tier assessment that is followed by a consistent, structured process that may require considerable time and effort in order to increase the likelihood of a productive process and favorable outcome(s).

30 years of experience

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 30 years of involvement with the mental health field. I have 19 years of experience at the independent practice level of licensure. I am currently working with clients in Texas. I have worked with a wide variety of client problems including: depression, PTSD, personality disorders, parenting, dysfunctional childhood issues, anger issues, and dissociation. I have helped individuals cope with psychotic symptoms. I have helped individuals deal with spiritual issues, even though I do not focus on religious beliefs and I don't consider my work to be "Christian counseling." My style is warm, compassionate, flexible, and respectful. I take a non-judgmental approach to client problems. My approach is influenced by the person-centered therapy developed by Carl Rogers. I have also been influenced by psychodynamic ideas, but I am not primarily a psychodynamic therapist. I have been influenced by the work of Milton Erickson, who was primarily known for hypnotherapy, but I seldom use hypnotherapy per se. Milton Erickson and Carl Rogers held in common the belief that the client has the solutions inside, and the therapist helps them find the solutions that are right for the client, so I rarely use advice giving except in emergency situations. What I think is the best advice possible, may not be the right answer for the client. I use continual observation and continue to evaluate the situations, so that I don't form an opinion about the problems and refuse to modify that opinion as the therapy progresses. I feel confident that I can help you find the answers and the changes that you are seeking. I look forward to working with you.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Meadows Place area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Meadows Place therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Meadows Place due to a higher cost of living. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a psychologist: $100

While many psychologists in Meadows Place may not take health insurance, some in the state of Texas may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With BetterHelp or clinicians throughout the state of Texas you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

How is a licensed therapist on this online therapy platform verified?

Therapists in Meadows Place, Texas working on BetterHelp are licensed, trained, experienced, and accredited as a doctor of psychology (PhD / PsyD), licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFT), licensed clinical social worker (LCSW / LICSW), or licensed professional counselors (LPC).

They have been qualified and certified by their state's professional board after successfully completing the necessary education, exams, training and practice with a patient, and extensive experience in a healthcare clinic or treatment centers, in order to become a mental health provider. While their lived experience, expertise, careers, and background vary, they all possess at least 3 years and 1,000 hours of hands-on experience with adult and sometimes teen patients, and have the necessary therapist credentials to provide a safe space for long lasting emotional healing in therapy. 

Please note BetterHelp does not offer or provide care from psychiatrists to prescribe a drug as treatment, or perform psychological assessments.

How does working with a counselor in BetterHelp online therapy sessions work?

BetterHelp clinicians treat clients online across the United States (individuals and couples) through life transitions, inner child exploration, long term depression or anxiety, and more. An online mental health professional, including the therapists in Meadows Place above, can work with young adults, children, adolescents, and adults virtually as an accredited licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) or licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT).

You can also try a Meadows Place therapy provider through BetterHelp's sister platform, ReGain, which is dedicated to couples and spouses worldwide. 

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

A psychologist in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A Meadows Place therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words.

With a lot of people in TX, providers may be booked out with clients.

No matter if you are seeking help in your area or beyond, online therapy can be a great option.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Meadows Place counselor?

Before seeing your therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the therapy process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, let them know if you have any concerns about therapy or feel unsure about what to talk about. They may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what therapy entails. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback and advice. A Meadows Place licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find through therapy can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles.

Is mental health care and therapy worth it? 

Therapy is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health professional has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Meadows Place, Texas can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Meadows Place has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online therapy to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
