My practice is located in Portland, Texas. Much of my work focuses on trauma. This ranges from car accidents, to childhood trauma, to abusive relationships, combat veterans and PTSD. I respect my client's opinions on their treatment and work closely with them in treatment planning. I love it when clients share resources with me that have helped them outside of sessions, whether that be podcasts, books, etc. I work to incorporate these things into treatment. I'm very skilled at meeting a client where he or she is at, and I have a talent for coaching clients through the difficult parts of treatment to continue making progress and not become "stuck."

Life can be difficult and overwhelming and we may feel lost and confused of what to do to handle life stressors. I genuinely care about your wellbeing and will help you identify practical skills to aid in dealing with anxiety, depression, and an array of other concerns. Therapy is not a one-size fits all approach, but together, we will find the technique that works for you.
I am a License Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. In 2000, I graduated from the University of Texas at Brownsville with a Master of Education degree in Guidance and Counseling. I have 20 years of experience as a counselor. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults.
I am currently working only with adults. I only do individual counseling. I do not do couples therapy. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered, and Solution Focus Therapy to help my clients identify techniques and coping skills that will work them. Providing clients an opportunity to express themselves without judgment. Helping clients work through issues inspiring and motivating them to be all they are capable of being. Helping them find hope when they feel hopeless.

Hello there! Take a deep breath. It's not easy finding the right therapist. I have been on the other side of the therapy desk and know how hard it is to open up to a stranger. It's okay if you are anxious about it, I understand this. I have provided therapy for almost 20 years and have been in the mental health field for over 25 years in a multitude of settings - schools, prisons, outpatient and inpatient facilities. I've been in private practice for about 8 years. If you need just a few sessions to gain just a few tools to help over a rough patch, we can collaborate on that. Or, if you are ready for a major change in your life to address some serious problems, we can work on that, as well. My approach is collaborative, meaning, you and I are a team to work towards a solution for your current challenges.

McKinney, TX - Accepting clients in TX
Are you searching for someone to listen to you? For many years, I have heard over and over, “Thank you, I have just been wanting someone to listen to me”. I have always felt led to sit and listen when a client went from answering assessment questions to opening up and spilling their heart. Assessment is essential to begin building a relationship between a client and counselor. However, I believe listening is just as important.
I have been a licensed social worker for over 29 years working with clients in healthcare settings and case management. I have now been a licensed professional counselor for the last five years. My love for helping people learn how to help themselves and believe they can retrain their brain to achieve what they want inspired me to seek my my own career goal of returning to school and becoming a licensed counselor. With my clients over the years, I have gained experience in helping them work through stress, anxiety, depression, family dynamics, job loss, marital problems, physical limitations and/or disabilities, as well as long term life-altering situations. These situations brought me to work with adults of all ages due to the circumstances affecting relationships with family and friends. I am a wife, a mother of two young adult children, a mother-in-law, a sister and a daughter myself. I understand and know how family dynamics affect an individual’s physical and emotional health in all aspects of their daily lives.

Hey there! Are you feeling a little overwhelmed lately? You’re not alone. Maybe you’ve been juggling a million things, second-guessing yourself, or trying to keep everyone else happy while quietly burning out. If that sounds familiar, I see you and I’d love to help.
I work with millennials, professionals and creatives who are ready to stop running on autopilot and start feeling more connected, calm, and confident in their own skin. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, going through a big life transition, struggling with boundaries, or just feeling “off,” we’ll work together to make sense of it and create space for something new.
In our sessions, you can expect compassion, curiosity, and maybe even a little humor when it fits. I use an integrative approach rooted in evidence-based practices like CBT, but I also bring creativity and flexibility into the process because therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, and neither are you.
This is your space to breathe, reflect, and grow. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to show up and we’ll take it from there, together.

Hello, I'm Beatriz,
Do you ever feel like you second guess yourself a lot? Do you ever wonder when that started or where that comes from? Are you afraid that your choices will go against cultural traditions and family believes? Do you have trouble vocalizing your needs?
I help individuals find their courage to start living the life that they really want for themselves. It's not easy, it takes practice, patience, and at times taking a little deeper look into our fears. Together we will explore fears, difficult emotions, relationships, we might even identify somethings that you may have been avoiding. Through motivational interviewing, we will explore what are your goals while in therapy. I use a strength based approach to start some action towards those goals. I start where you are and I will respect any decision you make along the way.
Wether you are struggling through depression, anxiety, trauma, or want to overcome something to start a new adventure, this is a partnership. I am here to support you through the journey. Seeking therapy can feel scary at times, so I want to congratulate you for taking these steps. As a Latina, I know how hard it can be to not feel like you have a safe space to heal and grow. As a spoken word artist, I know the importance of telling your story. I will provide you with a space where there will be no judgement and a lot empathy.

Houston, TX - Accepting clients in TX
I became a therapist because seeing growth and progress is extremely rewarding. This feeling of supporting others was a golden thread during my life, thus choosing this path professionally. I believe that therapy is a collaborative and flexible process, allowing us to address issues that are most important to you in a timeframe that is comfortable for you. I prioritize creating a supportive environment that opens up opportunity to explore thoughts and emotions, receive non-biased feedback and ultimately reach goals that you have set.

Welcome! I am Kimberly.
Are you struggling with a temporary setback or an ongoing problem? Are you wondering if there is hope for your circumstances or relationship?
I can assist you. There is always HOPE. I believe that, as human beings, we all face life challenges, be they relational, personal, emotional, spiritual, or physical, and our mental health affects how we respond to these challenges. Together, we will discover new meaning in your experiences, while identifying opportunities for healing and growth. Establishing relationship is critical to successful therapeutic outcomes and as a result, my style of work is interactive, collaborative, direct, and reflective of my focus on the transforming power of relationships. Seeking therapy can feel scary, but you are making a brave choice and you deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, you will be an active participant and I will meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques, so you can overcome whatever is holding you back and find hope for a new beginning. If you need a seasoned, genuine, non-judgmental, and respectful counselor, who seeks to empower you to overcome your challenges and transform your life, please contact me.

San Antonio, TX - Accepting clients in TX
I am a counselor who walks beside my clients as an observer and reflector. I help people peel through the layers of their individual stories so that they may gain clarity on how and why they are in their current state. Once we determine the how and why we move into the present to determine what can be done to improve their current state and move them towards the places they want to be. I do not have all of the answers, but I am determined to dig with my clients to uncover their own individual keys to unlock their goals and potential.
