Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Bulverde, TX

I'm a retired U.S. Army veteran with more than 30 years of experience supporting others through life's challenges. Over 26 of those years were spent walking alongside troops — listening, guiding, and helping them navigate the weight of service. That experience clarified my path, and in 2015 I became a Licensed Professional Counselor.

Whether or not it's my calling, I know this: I'm good at what I do, and I care deeply about the people I work with. My approach reflects the things I love most in life, including a strong belief in the healing power of animals. I've seen firsthand how they meet needs we don't always recognize we have — offering comfort, connection, and a kind of understanding that words sometimes can't reach.

You should know that I truly care about who you are, not just the symptoms you’re experiencing. I understand that reaching out for mental health support can feel intimidating, especially if you’ve ever felt judged, misunderstood, or dismissed in the past. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and respected from the very first conversation.

I approach every person with compassion, patience, and curiosity. I take the time to understand your story, your stressors, and what matters most to you, so your care is never one-size-fits-all. I believe healing happens best when you feel supported and involved in your treatment, and I see our work as a true partnership.

I am committed to using evidence-based practices while also honoring your lived experience. Whether we are focusing on medication, coping strategies, or long-term growth, I will always be honest, supportive, and collaborative.

Above all, you should know that you are not alone here, and your well-being is my priority.

Therapy isn’t what it used to be. It doesn’t have to be stuffy or scary. I want you to feel comfortable, safe, and enjoy the process! This is your journey, your time, and your money, so I want to make sure the experience is tailored to you and your needs.

Hello, my name is Celinda Barron, and have been licensed as a Professional Counselor since 2019. I have a Masters of Arts in Guidance and Counseling. As a dedicated and compassionate therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating the challenges of anxiety, depression, ADHD, and family issues. I offer affirming and inclusive care for gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals, and I am deeply committed to creating a safe and supportive space for exploring identity, relationships, and life transitions.

My work also includes helping clients process and heal from grief, trauma, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I understand how complex and personal each journey is, and I strive to meet each person with empathy, respect, and authenticity.

Therapeutic Approach

I use a collaborative, evidence-based approach tailored to your needs and goals. My practice draws from:

• Motivational Interviewing (MI) – to help explore ambivalence and build motivation for change
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors
• Humanistic Therapy – to foster self-awareness, personal growth, and emotional healing
• Behavioral Management Therapy – to develop practical strategies for daily challenges, particularly with ADHD and behavioral concerns

Whether you're facing internal struggles, interpersonal difficulties, or identity-related stress, I am here to walk with you—offering guidance, skills, and support every step of the way.

I’m Ana Parra, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with over 12 years of experience supporting adolescents, young adults, and adults.

Many of the clients I work with feel overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, struggling with low self-esteem, or navigating difficult life transitions. You might look like you’re functioning on the outside, but inside you feel stuck, exhausted, or unsure of your next step.

My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and understood. Therapy with me is not about judgment. It is about helping you reconnect with your strengths, clarify what matters most to you, and move forward with greater confidence.
