About me
Hello! My name is Ranita, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. I specialize in providing mental health services to both adolescents and adults, helping clients find relief from stress, trauma, anxiety, grief, and depression. As a therapist, I understand that seeking help can be challenging, but I am here to provide a safe and supportive environment to assist you in navigating your life struggles.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we'll discuss what’s bringing you to therapy and explore your goals together. We'll also talk about what to expect in the therapeutic process. My main priority is to make sure you feel comfortable and supported every step of the way!
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strengths as a therapist specializing in trauma, anxiety, and depression lie in my ability to create a compassionate, safe space for clients, my integrative approach to therapy, and my commitment to empowerment and healing. I understand the complexity of these issues and the courage it takes to face them, and I am dedicated to helping clients reclaim their sense of self, rebuild their lives, and cultivate resilience.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced trauma, the loss of a loved one, or challenges related to relationships and identity during significant life transitions such as motherhood, marriage, divorce, or career changes. My current clients include individuals, couples, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. My goal is to help you move forward in your life, release the burden of your struggles, and discover a sense of purpose and fulfillment.

My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I've been utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to assist clients in recognizing how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. CBT helps clients identify and challenge irrational thoughts and beliefs, making it effective for managing symptoms of anxiety and depression. This approach can lead to a happier life and improve mood and overall quality of life.
EMDR
I have used Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to assist clients in processing trauma. EMDR is effective for treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other trauma-related disorders. It has also been shown to benefit clients with anxiety, depression, and various other conditions. EMDR can be a transformative technique that accelerates healing, reduces distress, and improves overall well-being.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to help clients achieve their goals by emphasizing solutions rather than problems. SFBT focuses on what clients are doing well instead of what is going wrong. If clients feel stuck or overwhelmed by their difficulties, SFBT can be an empowering approach.
