Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Denison, TX covered by Aetna

Hello and welcome. I’m Ashley, a licensed clinical social worker, and I specialize in working with young adults (18+) and adults throughout adulthood who have experienced complex trauma and relational wounds. Many of the people I work with struggle with intense emotions, fear of abandonment, painful or unstable relationship patterns, a harsh inner critic, shame, or a sense of feeling lost or unsure of who they are.

These experiences can show up as complex trauma symptoms such as emotional overwhelm, mood shifts, dissociation, difficulty trusting others, people-pleasing, or feeling “too much” or “not enough.”

I believe trauma lives not only in the mind, but also in the body and in our relationships.

Together, we work to understand your emotional reactions and protective behaviors, not to judge them, but to help you feel safer, more grounded, and more connected to yourself and others.

If you recognize yourself in these experiences and are ready to work on trauma and relationship patterns, I would be honored to support you.

You’re carrying a lot, and you don’t have to figure it all out alone. Life can feel overwhelming when stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, or major transitions start to pile up. Therapy can be a space where you slow down, feel understood, and begin making sense of what you’re experiencing. For over a decade, I’ve worked alongside individuals navigating some of life’s hardest moments, including trauma, substance use recovery, mental health struggles, family stress, and major life changes. I became a therapist because I genuinely care about people and believe everyone deserves support, hope, and the opportunity to heal. No matter where you're starting from, we'll work together to help you build on your strengths and create meaningful change one step at a time.

Welcome! I’m Dr. Leticia Gonzalez-Castro, a dedicated mental health professional and educator with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients of all ages—from young children to adults—navigating challenges such as depression, anxiety, family dynamics, and educational hurdles. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Houston and a Doctorate in Educational Leadership and Management from Saint Thomas University, Florida, blending deep clinical understanding with strategic, advocate-minded care. My passion lies in empowering individuals and strengthening communities, and I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey toward growth and healing.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience in hospital-based care, trauma work, and cross-cultural mental health, my practice is guided by the belief that healing starts with safety, clarity, and being truly understood. I offer a steady, compassionate presence and a culturally attuned perspective, respecting both the science of the mind and your personal narrative. I am dedicated to providing care that is thoughtful, grounded, and respectful of your entire experience.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes that healing happens best in spaces that are safe, honest, and non-judgmental. I work with those who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma.

My approach is collaborative and practical. We will focus on understanding what’s showing up in your life, identifying patterns that may be holding you back, and developing tools you can use in real-world situations. I don’t believe in perfection—I believe in progress.

Clients often describe me as direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
