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.

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.

There's a reason they say "It takes a village to raise a child." Parenting has lots of ups & downs and moments of uncertainty. Needless to say, it can get overwhelming. But there's no need to navigate these challenging times alone. I proudly serve parents & children who are struggling with big emotions & behaviors, developmental transitions, or child/adult mental health issues. I strive to create a therapeutic atmosphere where each child feels seen & heard. Through child-centered therapy, I can begin to communicate with your child and help guide them as s/he/they make sense of their feelings and behaviors. But parents & caregivers need support, too! Parent sessions are a time to focus on you & your experiences without judgment (and without kiddos). These sessions are flexible and can be a place for you to decompress, to ask Qs or explore parenting styles & strategies. I'm happy to meet in person or virtually.

I am originally from New Orleans, Louisiana, but have lived in the Houston area for 30+ years. I decided to become a social worker because of my personal experiences raising a child with behavioral health issues and experiencing profound loss following the sudden death of my husband. My goals were to help others the way my own family had been helped, but I also hoped to improve the experiences of others with similar lived experiences but less positive outcomes. I have worked in a variety of settings, including West Oaks Hospital (a specialty psychiatric hospital) and its affiliated outpatient settings, where I provided individual, group, and family therapy to adults and adolescents experiencing significant mental health crises. I have also worked in home hospice care, assisting individuals and families with both pre-bereavement and post-bereavement support, and where I facilitated online support groups for caregivers and for individuals experiencing grief and bereavement. In addition to my private practice, I am an adjunct professor at the University of Houston’s Graduate College of Social Work, and I frequently consult with immigration lawyers about the ways in which mental health issues may impact the path to asylum or citizenship. Although I do not consider myself to be a trauma specialist, I do practice with a trauma-informed style and am always conscious of the ways in which trauma impacts the lives and experiences of individuals in all walks of life. I have experience working with people who live with ADHD, anxiety, autism, depression, and mood disorders generally.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Texas. I received my Masters from the Liberty University, and have been practicing for three years. I help individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship struggles (family and couples), addiction, and anger management. I'm experienced working with individuals that have experienced past trauma, struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, stress and those just needing to be heard and understood. I'm a listener first, but also an educator to how our mind is able to take control of our negative emotions and will provide skills of how mindfully, we can overcome these emotions and learn to live our best lives.

There is no shame in needing some help to get over humps, to work through current issues that may be hindering you from seeing the good things in life, or even to work through years of painful experiences or trauma. We are all human and at many points throughout life need to reach out to someone for help, whether it is from friends, family, or professionals. Reaching out can be difficult and a bit scary, but rest assured you are making the right choice and taking a huge step in the right direction. We will walk through this journey together. I enjoy helping people heal from their pain of trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, grief, anger, and life problems. Techniques I often use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with some Mindfulness mixed in. These are great and very beneficial, and without a doubt will help you. I offer Biblical Counseling as well.
