Stephanie Robles-Herrera
Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas with 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I specialize in helping adult clients navigate life transitions, manage depression and anxiety, communication issues, relationship issues, and address the challenges of trauma.
At the same time, I challenge and guide clients to discover practical solutions that foster meaningful progress toward their goals.
My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients feel empowered to regain control of their mental health and well-being. I am bilingual and have the ability to support those seeking services in Spanish.
First session
In our first counseling session, we will take time to explore your story, discuss what has brought you to therapy, and collaboratively create a plan to outline your goals. Once we have established these goals, we will begin the meaningful work of addressing the concerns you bring to each session. Together, we will reflect on these issues and identify strategies to help you cope and work toward achieving your goals. This process is a journey, and we will move at a pace that feels comfortable and supportive for you.
Strengths
Working with wide range of individuals and families, I approach my clients with gentleness and an open mind, striving to create a safe and supportive environment. At the same time, I challenge and guide clients to discover practical solutions that foster meaningful progress toward their goals.
Ideal clients
I am passionate about working with college-age through middle-aged clients as they navigate life transitions, manage anxiety and depression, and address relationship communication and conflicts. I am open to working with couples and families if needed.
Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
In the counseling process, you hold the steering wheel of your emotions and possess the capacity to create meaningful changes that lead to a fulfilling life. I take a personalized approach with each client, collaborating with you to discover the most effective path toward your goals.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Our thoughts play a significant role in shaping how we feel. By fostering an understanding of the thought process, I empower my clients to gain greater control over their thoughts, enabling them to recognize how these influence their emotions and actions."
Trauma-Informed Care
Recognizing that many individuals come from challenging backgrounds and have experienced trauma, I strive to create a safe and supportive space for my clients in counseling. Together, we explore how trauma may manifest physically, mentally, and in various aspects of life. Through this collaborative journey, we work to address their unique needs and empower them to regain control over their lives
Solution-Focused Brief Treatment
In our sessions, we focus on practical solutions to enhance coping skills and empower you to make more informed life choices.
