If you’re feeling stuck in painful patterns—overwhelmed by self-doubt, emotional overload, or strained relationships—I offer a way forward. Together, we will break the cycle by identifying core negative beliefs, healing the impacts of abuse and manipulation, and creating lasting change.
Using EMDR, somatic therapy, and mindfulness, I’ll help you rewire the old scripts keeping you trapped—turning “I’m not enough” into “I am worthy and capable.” You’ll learn how to release stress and tension stored in your body, develop emotional resilience, and step into a more grounded, confident version of yourself. This process isn’t just about healing wounds; it’s about reclaiming your power, rewriting your story, and living with clarity and connection.
You won’t walk this path alone. Through our work, you’ll experience deep support, a space where you are truly seen and heard, and the tools to navigate life with greater ease. You’ll gain not just relief from emotional pain, but the freedom to live a life that aligns with who you truly are—unapologetically and with confidence.
Transformation is possible. The weight of the past doesn’t have to define you. Let’s take this journey together.

Katy, TX - Accepting clients in TX
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.

Grief can be overwhelming. It can be sad and lonely when you miss a loved one so much. I can help you through the sadness to be able to live in the next season of your life with peace and joy.
Does this sound familiar?
You want to move past the sadness and grief but instead you feel:
● Like you should be further along in your grieving
● Crying more than you think you should be
● Overcome with sadness and longing of what life was like
● Feeling like everything is moving forward while you are at a standstill
● Afraid of change and the unknown
● Do your thoughts begin to spiral
● Grieving the loss of a relationship - romantic, with family members or friends, complicated relationships with family whom are still alive
● Grieving the loss of a loved one – parents, child, significant other
You may be finding yourself short or easily frustrated with your spouse, children, family, co-workers, difficulty focusing at home or work, crying more than usual and feeling sad/lonely.
Life doesn’t have to stay this way.
Hi, I’m Elisabeth Zaragoza, LPC, and I can help.
I provide grief counseling using a space that is warm and understanding for you to share your loss or life transition. My clients walk away from therapy with me feeling heard, understood, confident and ability to face what lies before them.

Hello and welcome!
My name is Helen and I am an LPC in Texas. I am happy that you are taking the time to review my profile to see if we are a good fit. I don't have an agenda aside from helping you feel better and happier in your life. My therapeutic approach is more like a conversation with a close friend who makes you feel safe and encourages you to explore your thoughts and feelings.
Do you ever feel as though you have thoughts that aren't serving you but you don't know how to change them? Do you feel bad and you're not sure why? Are you unsure of what you want in life?
I help my clients gain clarity on who they are, what they want, and how to explain it to others by asking them questions to unlock doors they didn't even know were there. You talk, I listen. I point out reoccurring themes I notice in our sessions, perfectionism comes up a lot for my clients, and we explore whether or not those beliefs are helpful to you. If they aren't, we explore your beliefs and find another point of view, another perspective that is also true but helpful and nourishing for you. I like pointing out your strengths and reminding you of your past successes and skills which can be applied to your current challenges.
I look forward to working with you.

Greetings!!! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Texas and Louisiana. I graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a Master's in General Counseling & Guidance. My interest in mental health began when I took a college psychology course in high school. I later worked as a Human Resources Coordinator at a mental health agency and decided I wanted to help people who experience mental health matters.
I currently work with adults on managing Anxiety, Anger Management, Family Issues, ADD, ADHD, ODD, Career, and Academic. I am empathetic and provide a safe, welcoming environment for clients to discuss goals and concerns.

I am so excited to have you visit me here and for giving me the chance to introduce myself! My name is Sarah Nickolson-Kemper and I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT). I am also a certified middle school teacher. After spending almost 10 years in the classroom, I recognized I wanted help in a different way.
I love helping people realize the strengths they have within themselves and understand that we are all part of many systems (family, work, community, culture, etc) and as such, there are many contributing factors to our daily experiences in life.
I believe if it isn't broken, don't fix it.
Encorporating various techniques such as mindfulness, journaling, art, and role play provide you the opportunity to find the right fit to help you set measurable and attainable goals to realize the change you want.
