Life is genuinely hard sometimes, and you deserve a counselor who gets that. As a former teacher and mother of five, I have seen how stress, family dynamics, and caregiving can quietly take a toll. I earned my master's in School and Clinical Counseling after watching students struggle, and I have since worked with families, youth, caregivers, and individuals facing everyday challenges. I would love to help you find more balance, too.
I'm Carol Hernandez, a bilingual therapist, mother, and proud Latina woman deeply connected to my culture and community. I grew up between Southern California and the Rio Grande Valley, went to college at UTRGV in South Texas and did my graduate studies at Baylor University. Over the past five years, I've gotten to work in all kinds of settings such as hospitals, inpatient and outpatient programs, and alongside medical teams, which has given me a pretty wide view of how mental health shows up in people's lives. I love working with BIPOC, LGBTQ+, immigrant, and neurodivergent communities. I specialize in issues of anxiety, depression, chronic stress, trauma, big life changes, grief, post partum depression, or just feeling overwhelmed and not feeling like yourself.
I primarily work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions.
Since 2016, I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, including outpatient health clinics.
Throughout my experience, I’ve had the opportunity to work with individuals from different backgrounds and with a variety of needs.
I want my clients to know that therapy with me is a place where you can show up as you are. I am a bilingual English/Spanish Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C), and Infant Mental Health Endorsed (IMH-E). I support mothers during pregnancy and postpartum, adults navigating stress, anxiety, ADHD, or life transitions, and children and teens ages 6–18 who may be struggling with ADHD, attention, organization, emotions, or self-confidence even when there is not yet a formal diagnosis. My goal is for every client to feel understood, supported, and never judged.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with teens, adults, and children ages 7 and older navigating anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel understood and supported. I draw from person-centered therapy, attachment work, mindfulness, and I’m trained in EMDR to help process past experiences. I especially enjoy working with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected.
I bring both clinical depth and genuine warmth to every therapeutic relationship. I earned my Master's in Counseling from St. Mary's University and have spent my career walking alongside adults navigating some of life's most challenging moments — anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, women's issues, and so much more. As a Hispanic woman, I understand firsthand the importance of feeling truly seen and understood by your therapist, and I am committed to creating a space where your full identity is honored and welcomed. I work with adults across Texas, and if any of this resonates, I would love to connect. Reaching out is the hardest step, and I will meet you with the same warmth I bring to every session.
Welcome! Whether you're an athlete, performer, and high-achieving individual seeking to improve both mental wellness and performance or navigating anxiety, relationship concerns, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create lasting change. I am also a Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC), which has allowed me to work especially well with those who need consistent, high level performance. My clinical experience includes working with adults, adolescents, couples, families, athletes, LGBTQ+ individuals, survivors of sexual assault, and neurodivergent clients.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and see clients throughout the state via virtual therapy. I received my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Amberton University and also hold a Masters in Marriage & Family Therapy. I have experience working with a diverse client population encompassing care for a variety of mental health concerns. I strive to provide a safe space for my clients in order to build a strong, therapeutic relationship that allows for growth.
Hi, I’m Denise Brady, LMFT— a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for helping people reconnect with their truest selves by healing the emotional wounds left by childhood and parental relationships. Whether you’re navigating the pain of emotional neglect, unmet needs, or complex family dynamics, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore, process, and grow. My work is rooted in the belief that healing the inner child is not about blaming the past, but about understanding it — and learning how to reclaim your voice, your worth, and your power in the present.
I received both my Bachelors and Masters in Social Work from the University of Texas at Austin. I have been in private practice for more than 10 years. Prior to private practice, my career began as an inpatient therapist on locked units at psychiatric facilities Cambridge Hospital (currently Sun Behavioral Hospital) and West Oaks Hospital. In addition to my inpatient work at West Oaks Hospital, I was a group facilitator with both adolescents and adults for the outpatient extension of the hospital: The Excel Center. My work at The Excel Center involved daily group therapy in both the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) and Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP).
Because of my work with the acute psychiatric population in intensive treatment settings, I am able to work as a generalist practitioner. I work with most issue from depression, anxiety, and OCD to trauma, addiction and relationships struggles... just to name a few.
