Hello and Welcome! My name is Cherrelle Barton and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Supervisor (LCSW-S) with 13 years of experience in the field. I commend you in taking the first step toward self discovery. I believe that what's most important in the therapeutic process is choosing a therapist that is the right fit. So just a little about me, I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology in 2008 and went on to obtain my Master of Social Work degree in 2011. Those closest to me would describe me as kind, compassionate and patient. These qualities catapulted me into the behavioral health field. When working with clients I prefer to utilize strengths based, solution focused methods. Joining with clients in problem solving and analyzing to find solutions for troublesome symptoms. I believe that you are your best healer; I am simply the catalyst to guide you along the pathway to finding what it is you are needing and longing for.

Hello! I bring 16 years of mental health experience along for your sessions. I consider myself a generalist and I'm happy to help you with any need or concern that you might have. Some of the areas where I have the most experience are depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and grief and loss. I work with almost all age groups however, I typically do not work with persons under the age of 18.

My name is Omar Sandoval and I could have been a statistic. The persistent financial, social, and inter- and intrapersonal adversity I experienced coming from a low socioeconomic status single parent home could have defined me were it not for hope, discipline, education, luck, and my hobbies. Instead, I am a Mexican-American English/Spanish speaking Licensed Professional Counselor practicing since 2017. I was inspired to work in this field due to many hardships growing up. Though difficult to overcome, such significant obstacles ignited my curiosity for understanding the human condition and improving upon it when and where possible, a lifelong pursuit which still guides me personally and professionally.
Me llamo Omar Sandoval y soy un consejero acreditado bilingue ejerciendo desde el 2017 de descendencia Mexicana.

Solo fue asi que aprendi no temerle a las problemas ni a los crisis ya que en esta vida hay muchos y tambien aprendi como comunicar esta capacidad para superar los obstaculos interna y externamente en mi vida personal y en mi profesion.

I know acknowledging you need extra support may feel scary. If you’ve found this site, I imagine that you are ready to make a change. Maybe you’ve noticed feeling more angry or irritable or your relationships seem strained. Perhaps you find yourself overthinking or struggling to manage the stress and anxiety in your daily life. Or you know it's finally time to address your negative self talk. I know life can feel incredibly difficult and you may feel isolated in your struggle. I’d be honored to walk alongside you as we collaboratively work to solve the issues that brought you to therapy and help you develop lifelong coping skills.
Whatever challenges might bring you to a place of seeking support, I am willing to partner with you as you journey to seek healing and restoration. I believe change happens when people are given the support they need to draw on their own strengths and realize their potential to live fulfilling, meaningful lives.

Debbie Gonzalez is a licensed mental health therapist in Texas that helps Latinx adolescents and adults break generational trauma and address cultural factors that prevent individuals from receiving appropriate mental health care. As a Latinx therapist, I understand how our culture perceives and feels about mental health. Being told it isn’t that bad, to get over it, or that it's something we don’t talk about are common phrases generationally taught. We shouldn’t blame our parents or guardians for the mindset that was taught to them about mental health; however, you can rewrite your history moving forward. Throughout the course of therapy, we will connect culture and mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, stress, grief, or difficult life events, and learn how to overcome them through mindfulness techniques, CBT, and solution-focused strategies.

Hello and thank you for taking a chance on therapy, reaching out is one of the hardest parts and you are taking the first step. Finding a fitting therapist is a big part of your success in therapy, so if it does not initially work out, remember you can find a suitable option. Our initial meeting will be a 15-minute consultation to ensure we are compatible for each other to maximize your therapeutic experience.
I am a Texas State University graduate. I have experience in multiple settings including schools, hospitals, inpatient treatment facilities, and group practices. This has allowed me to work with diverse humans and engage many different therapeutic styles. I have a passion for creating space for my community of color, ADHD, parents, and LGBTQIA. I support adolescents, adults, and parent clients.
Outside of the office, I spend a lot of time in nature as this is a healing place for me that I like to encourage others to consider as a therapeutic tool. My immediate family consists of my wife, 2 kiddos, and lots of pets. We spend time together hiking/exploring nature, joining city-wide events, finding new parks to play and walk the dogs, and cooking new recipes.
Reach out if you find yourself aligning with my style, I look forward to supporting and growing with you!
