I am a licensed mental health professional dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with empathy, clarity, and evidence‐based care.
Hello! My name is Bernave Vega. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and a doctoral candidate. I run my private practice VEGA Center for Mental Health. Here I am trained in seeing children (8+) and parents who have experienced a traumatic life event using TF-CBT. I also have done extensive research on men's issues and relationship counseling. I'm a queer-Mexican American therapist and offer LGBTQIA+ affirming care as well. If you have issues with identity, relationships, or are struggling with emotions, behaviors, or feeling safe again, please reach out! Only Virtual
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and retired nurse with more than 25 years of experience in healthcare, social work, and behavioral health. Born in Texas and raised in Brazil and Chile, I’ve spent much of my life moving between cultures. I provide therapy in English, Spanish, and Portuguese and bring that multicultural perspective into my work.
I work with adults navigating anxiety and overthinking, depression, relationship difficulties, narcissism, grief and loss, caregiver stress, aging, identity concerns, and major life transitions. I also provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and help who want to create a meaningful life on their own terms and figure out what you want the next chapter of their life to look like.
I have a particular interest in helping people who have spent years being the dependable one—the partner, parent, caregiver, professional, or person everyone else turns to—and are beginning to ask, “What about me?”
Hi, I’m Elizabeth Gyang, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Master of Science in Nursing. I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a supportive and judgment-free environment.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, eating disorders, mood disorders, and other mental health challenges. My approach is personalized, collaborative, and focused on helping each individual achieve emotional wellness and improved quality of life.
I believe every person deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to empower you and your family with the tools and guidance needed to navigate life's challenges and build lasting resilience.
I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing and wellness—one step at a time.
Hello and thank you for taking a chance on therapy, reaching out is one of the hardest parts. I am a Texas State University graduate. I have experience in multiple settings including schools, hospitals, inpatient treatment facilities, and group practices. This has allowed me to work with diverse humans and engage in many different therapeutic styles. I have a passion for creating space for my community of color, ADHD, and LGBTQIA. I support adolescents, adults, and parent clients.
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP‐BC) with Radiance Psychiatry and Wellness, I take a whole‐person approach to mental health care. I recognize that emotional well‐being is shaped by many factors — physical health, stress, relationships, and life experiences — and I work with clients to address each of these areas.
I have experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach blends medication management with supportive therapy, patient education, and lifestyle‐based strategies. I strive to create a welcoming, culturally sensitive space where clients feel empowered, understood, and supported.
My goal is to help you build resilience, gain insight, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor that has 10 years of experience working in the field. I have experience serving a variety of communities. I have worked with the LGBTQIA community, children, young adults, couples, the geriatric population, and those with disabilities. I have specific experience working with depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, mood disorders, grief, transitions in life, career development, ADHD, self-esteem, anger management, gender identity, and trauma.
Professionally, I have spent a decade in education (five years as a classroom teacher and five years as a school counselor). This is my third year as a therapist outside of the school setting.
For my masters degree, I attended Texas State University in San Marcos, TX (Eat 'em up cats!). At Texas State, I completed my MA in Professional Counseling with two focuses: school counseling and clinical mental health.
As a former educator, the populations I support include adolescents, young adults, educators, parents/guardians, and caretakers.
My clients should know that I provide a calm, nonjudgemental space where they can show up exactly as they are. I understand how overwhelming anxiety, depression, and trauma can feel, and I approach each session with compassion and respect. I believe healing happens at your own pace, and I will walk alongside you as we work toward meaningful change.
Seeking help can be the first step to acquire greater understanding and insight into our lives and relationships.
Hi, I’m Alice! I’m a dually certified Nurse Practitioner who takes an open-minded, direct, and solution-oriented approach to care. I work with clients on both their mental health and overall well-being, and I believe in creating a safe, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. Together, we’ll focus on finding practical steps and solutions that help you feel better and more in control of your life.
