I’m a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Board-Approved Supervisor with nearly 10 years of experience supporting adults through anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, chronic illness, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, with a focus on culturally responsive care.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique needs. I have a particular interest in helping clients reconnect with their motivation, discover or redefine their sense of purpose, and heal experiences from childhood that may continue to influence their emotions, relationships, and sense of self today. Together, we can explore the patterns and experiences that have shaped you while also developing practical tools to help you move forward.

I draw from evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. When appropriate, our work may also explore inner-child healing, identity, self-worth, spirituality, relationships, and life purpose.

My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can better understand yourself, reconnect with what matters to you, and create meaningful changes that align with the person you want to become. Services are available in both English and Spanish.

Life can be challenging, and sometimes we all need a safe place to talk, process our experiences, and find a way forward. I believe counseling is a collaborative journey where you can feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

My goal is to help you navigate life’s challenges, develop healthy coping skills, strengthen your relationships, and build confidence as you move toward a healthier and more fulfilling life. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, stress, relationships, parenting, life transitions, or simply feel stuck, you don't have to face it alone.

I’m here to walk alongside you as you work toward positive change and greater well-being.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I believe that every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. Reaching out for mental health care can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to make that first step as comfortable as possible. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, PTSD, and other mood and stress-related concerns. I understand that every person's experiences are unique, so I take the time to truly listen before creating a treatment plan. My priority is to build a trusting relationship where you feel safe discussing your concerns and confident that we're working toward your goals together.

Carlyn Bailey Mason

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Texas


Healing isn't linear and I understand that deeply, both professionally and personally. As a dual -certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, and an attorney, I bring a unique, comprehensive perspective to care. But more than titles, I bring lived experience.

I know grief intimately. The pain I carried afterwards was unexplainable. It didn't fit into a neat diagnosis or timeline. That experience shaped not only how I show up for others but why I do my work.

Whether you are navigating the aftermath of a death, a medical diagnosis, a relationship rupture, or job loss, I offer a safe, grounded and trauma focused space. I help clients process complex emotions, rebuild self-trust, and gently move toward healing, at your own pace.

If you're carrying something heavy, you don't have to carry it alone. I'd be honored to walk with you.

I am Victoria and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas and Washington and the owner of Sound Mind Therapy and Counseling Services, PLLC. I specialize in working with identity exploration, women’s issues, ADHD, and trauma. I’ve worked with all ages across a multitude of settings including outpatient, education, hospice, rehabilitation, community, and inpatient care. What I love most about this work is witnessing that shift—when clients start feeling more confident, clear-headed, or finally understand themselves in a new way. I’m a creative problem solver who believes therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all. Everyone’s journey is different, and my job is to help you find what actually works for you.
