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.

Welcome! I'm DiAna Escamilla. Please take a moment to acknowledge that you have taken the first step towards bettering your mental health—yay! I want to thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I hope my vast experience will be a good fit for you. I have been a licensed professional counselor since 1995 when I retired from the ARMY. I'm a mother of six children and understand the stress of raising children as a single parent. I am bilingual in Spanish and English. I have worked in various settings, collecting a broad range of experience with diverse clients. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore their obstacles to feeling emotionally healthy, and to try to understand and heal the mistreatment they have endured. We can do this in the privacy of my office or virtually.

My path to becoming a mental health provider started in rural South Texas, where I grew up and learned the importance of a supportive community. This upbringing planted the seed for helping others, especially those in vulnerable situations. While pursuing my bachelor's degree in psychology, I began working at a children's home for neglected and abused children. This experience exposed me to the mental health field, particularly in working with children who had endured complex trauma. It was here that I saw firsthand the profound impact that trauma can have on a person's development and well-being. After earning my bachelor's degree, I spent eight years as a child abuse investigator for Child Protective Services. This role in a fast-paced, high-intensity environment honed my assessment and evaluation skills. I became adept at identifying needs and connecting people with the resources they required to rebuild their lives. Through this work, I deepened my understanding of trauma and its lasting effects. During my time at CPS, I decided to further my education and pursued a master's degree in social work. After completing my degree, I worked at the local mental health authority in their children's crisis center. This experience further solidified my passion for helping those in crisis. I then transitioned into public health research ; however, after several years in research, I felt the pull to return to child and family welfare and began working as a Clinical Consultant. In this role, I focused on identifying the needs of foster care children and ensuring they received the necessary services. These experiences have shaped my practice today, where I specialize in trauma, eating disorders, body image, and ADHD. I am committed to helping individuals navigate the complexities of their mental health, drawing on my background in both direct service and research to provide comprehensive care

As a licensed marriage and family therapist I have particular experience and training in understanding individuals in the context of their relationships, families, and social identities. Sometimes our distress isn't just about what we're doing or not doing. Oftentimes, it's about how we move through the world in our social identities and how the world perceives and interacts with us so I want you to be able to talk about that in therapy. I work with families and couples; However, It is not uncommon for me to work with individuals. Even when I am working with an individual, I understand that individual in context. I can relate and find it meaningful to work with individuals suffering from anxiety. Anxiety can be crippling and paralyzing, causing us to overthink which can get in the way of so many things in life from accomplishing goals, trying new things, socializing, sleeping or even smaller things that add up until you're overwhelmed with them, like answering the phone or checking your mail. If you're feeling misunderstood, like you can't be yourself, anxious, worried, or trapped in repeating patterns that are causing you pain, I will join you where you are and we can work together to help you create a secure sense of self, and restore and improve relationships.

"Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in our soul, and sings the tunes without the words, and never stops at all." Emily Dickinson "As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I bring a wealth of therapeutic expertise and an unwavering commitment to supporting individuals and families on their unique journeys. I view counseling as a collaborative, confidential partnership where my primary role is to provide an empathetic and non-judgmental space for exploration and growth.

Hi, I am Norma Beardwood. I have been involved with mental health work since I was 18 years old. I started out working as a mental health worker in a psychiatric hospital in Massachusetts. I have worked as a RDN and LPC in psychiatric facilities and I have always loved it. I was born and raised in Rhode Island but have made Texas my home.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor living in Texas. I have experience working in public schools, prison settings, children's advocacy center, my private practice and online counseling. I enjoy helping people make changes that will benefit their best life. I work with children ages 10 and parenting skills for the family. I have several years of counseling but I know each person has his/her issues to deal with throughout the daily routine of life. My method is eclectic of many different modes of counseling rather than one direct approach that works for everyone.

Welcome, I believe in supporting individuals of all ages on their journey towards greater emotional well-being and fulfillment.

I love people, and I love helping people through struggles. I listen with a non-judgmental caring heart, knowing we have all struggled in different ways.

I specialize in trauma therapy, depression, addictions and compulsions, anxiety, parenting, and Christian counseling. I started my counseling career by volunteering on teen suicide hotline about 28 years ago, and have been fully licensed as a professional counselor for over 17 years now.

I operate from the stance that people were not intended to suffer alone. Often, burdens that appear too heavy or too great to move beneath feel that way because the individual does not have adequate resources and skills to process the situations or experiences. As a therapist, I have been blessed to stand alongside many individuals as they planted their feet back on the ground and learned to skills necessary to alter their view of self or to shift so that they became bigger than their pain. I have worked in both in-patient and private practice settings over the course of the last eight years. I have experience working with trauma, eating disorders, addiction, process addictions, families, parenting concerns, ADHD, depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. I am capable of engaging in Christian therapy if desired by the client. Overall, my goal as a therapist is to work beside the client as they learn to meet their goals, not to stand in front and pull them along or stand behind and push them. If we need to stand still and sort through some obstacles before moving forward, then that is part of the process and time well spent.

Something you may be curious about is why I became a therapist. There’s a long version and a short version, so I think I’ll give you the medium version. I’ve always enjoyed connecting with people. I have always enjoyed building relationships with others, and helping where and when I can. I can honestly say. I have a lot of life experiences that have helped me with being subjective, and have cultivated who I am today. During my journey, I was able to spend time with people who were different than me, which has helped expand my mind, understand, admire, and connect with people who have a wide variety of views, beliefs, and experiences. After I graduated college, I worked at a community mental health agency that has provided me with a lot of experiences in many different areas of mental health. It is a lot of work, but I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work with so many different people, and in different capacities. I am passionate about the human experience, and I currently see my mission as empowering others to explore their identity, discovering their authentic selves, and allow themselves to step into their truth. It is important to know I am on this journey of life myself! I’m not a therapist who thinks she has all the answers, or who’s going to give you my opinions as fact, or who will tell you exactly what you should do. I see my role as a dedicated partner here to collaborate with you and assist you in uncovering all the layers that make you who you are.

As a counselor, I have several years of experience making true positive progress for many mental health issues. I believe that every person has a unique set of circumstances that differentiate our mental health and ways of thinking and acting. Because we all differ, I do not believe in a one size fits all approach. I believe in nurturing and fostering a strong healthy relationship that enables the expression of one’s own uniqueness, which in turn helps to promote a therapeutic mental wellness that is tailor made for each individual. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who is skilled at motivating, communicating, and helping my clients find their inner strength. I work to lead clients to mental clarity and psychological wellness. Together we will make the seemingly impossible into something that is a positive reality. Gaining positive mental health sometimes takes you on a journey. I am the one to go on this mental health journey with you. Lets make this happen.
