Grief counselors and therapists in Brownsville, TX

My name is Alexandra, though most people call me Alex.

Life can be messy, overwhelming, and at times downright exhausting. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, disordered eating, grief, relationship challenges, or navigating a major life transition, it can feel like you've lost your footing or aren't quite sure who you are anymore. I work with adolescents and adults who are looking for a space to show up as they are—without judgment, pressure, or the expectation that they need to have it all figured out.

I have meaningful experience supporting individuals navigating eating disorder recovery, helping clients build practical coping skills to manage urges while also exploring the deeper stories, beliefs, and emotions that shape their relationship with themselves. I also work with individuals processing grief and loss, recognizing that healing isn't about "moving on," but learning how to carry what matters while continuing to move forward.

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.

I specialize in helping my clients navigate challenging situations. From substance use disorders to grief, I've supported my clients in fostering effective communication and emotional expression. Sharing feelings openly and honestly is crucial for your well-being. Remember, transformation takes time, but there is always hope with hard work. You can move towards a more connected and hopeful future.

What truly sets me apart is my calm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental approach. I believe in meeting every individual exactly where they are, creating a safe and affirming space for open, honest communication. Together, we’ll build a collaborative relationship where goals, preferences, and values guide every step of your care. I am committed to providing stigma-free care; including those navigating challenges related to neurodivergence, substance use, trauma, identity or difficult past experiences. Everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and respected without fear of shame or judgment.

I believe mental health care works best when it feels like a partnership. I take time to listen, understand your experiences, and involve you in every step of your treatment plan. My goal is to create a space where you feel respected, heard, and supported while we work together to find the right tools and strategies to help you feel more stable, confident, and hopeful about the future.

Hey there! My name is Zach Meyer, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. At my heart, I'm passionate about serving others, and that is exactly why I'm here. I believe that intentional, trusting relationships are foundational in our growth and healing. For nearly five years, I've had the privilege of partnering with adolescents and their families to build those relationships that foster growth and healing while navigating challenges with anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns, and life transitions.

I’m a seasoned psychotherapist who helps individuals and couples create healthy, fulfilling relationships—starting from within. My approach is warm, empathic, and solutions-focused, combining mindful insight with practical strategies for real-life change. Whether you’re healing from past wounds, navigating conflict, or seeking deeper connection, I offer a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore what’s holding you back and build the skills for lasting growth. Clients describe me as calm, grounding, and genuinely invested in their progress—someone who helps them feel seen, supported, and empowered to love with confidence and clarity.

I am passionate about helping people feel seen, heard, and supported as they navigate life's challenges and discover their inner strengths. My approach is to create an authentic and individual relationship with my clients so they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and hopes without judgment.

I work best with clients who are navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, life transitions, and everyday stress. Many come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of how to move forward. My ideal clients are looking for a supportive space to process what they are carrying, better understand themselves, and begin healing at a pace that feels right for them. I believe people heal best when they feel truly seen, heard, and understood. My approach to counseling is grounded in kindness, empathy, consistency, and genuine human connection.

For the past 20 years, I have worked in educational counseling and mental health support with children and adolescents ages 5–18. During that time, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside students and families through some of life’s most challenging and meaningful moments. For the last 14 years, I have also practiced as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), helping clients build emotional resilience, confidence, and practical tools for everyday life.

My experience includes working extensively with anxiety, executive functioning challenges, academic stress, goal setting, grief, and trauma. I understand how overwhelming life can feel when emotions, responsibilities, or past experiences begin to weigh heavily. I also know that healing and growth are possible with support, patience, and the right therapeutic relationship.
