I am a former educator who specializes in anxiety/depression. I have worked with various populations and enjoy supporting clients from different backgrounds working through stress, anxiety, depression, sleep concerns, and behavior regulation. I take a holistic, personalized approach and enjoy using technology and behavioral insights to support lasting growth.

You have probably been carrying more than you let on, and somewhere along the way, just getting through the day became the goal. I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, family stress, and life transitions that feel bigger than expected. I also support parents who are looking for help for a child or teenager who is struggling to find their footing. Whatever brings you here, my goal is to make sure you feel genuinely heard from the very first conversation.

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.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the COVID, or not able to concentrate and wanting to gain control of your life again? You are not alone. Life can be extremely difficult to navigate at times, especially when going through major life transitions and trauma such as the COVID. These things can greatly impact our wellbeing, especially if we do not have the proper tools to work through them.

I'm Melissa Avitia, a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and families, using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and mindfulness to help clients navigate anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and school-related challenges. I graduated from the University of Texas-Pan American, and I'm passionate about creating a compassionate, empowering space where clients can build resilience and restore balance in their lives.

My goal is to create a warm, affirming space where you can be yourself while gaining practical skills to navigate life's challenges. We'll work together to build on your strengths, better understand what's getting in your way, and help you feel more confident and in control of your life.
