I am currently pursuing my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree with a focus in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing, further advancing my clinical expertise and commitment to providing high-quality mental health care.

I’m Perla Abeyta, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the founder of Strength Within Counseling. I work with teens, adults, and couples who are navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, chronic stress, and difficult life transitions. I have particular experience working with veterans and military-connected clients, but my practice is open to anyone who is looking for support in understanding what they’ve been through, developing healthier patterns, and moving forward with greater confidence.

I believe that healing begins with feeling genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My own life experiences taught me the power of having someone who continues to show up with compassion, hope, and encouragement—even during life's most difficult moments. That experience inspired me to become a social worker and therapist, and it continues to shape how I care for every client I work with.

I have over 12 years of experience in mental health and social services and have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) for the past three years, after practicing as a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) for five years. Throughout my career, I've worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, families, and individuals experiencing severe mental illness, trauma, homelessness, foster care involvement, school-related challenges, and major life transitions. My background includes school social work, crisis intervention, rehabilitation counseling, psychotherapy, case management, and program development, giving me a well-rounded understanding of the many factors that impact mental health.

I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, self-esteem, relationship concerns, family conflict, life transitions, stress, grief, trauma, communication difficulties, compassion fatigue, motivation, and coping with change.

I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role isn't to tell you what to do—it's to walk alongside you, helping you recognize your strengths, overcome obstacles, and build the life you want with confidence and resilience.

• My approach to therapy is interactive and collaborative, focused on your self discovery and growth. I see our work as a partnership where your voice, values, and goals matter. Together, we will explore what is bringing you to therapy and clarify the changes you hope to see in your life, relationships, and overall sense of well being.
• I prefer to join in with my clients rather than sit back and simply observe. We will actively work together to identify patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that enhance your quality of life. I will offer gentle guidance, ask thoughtful questions, and invite your feedback so our sessions feel useful and relevant to you.
• I believe the therapy relationship is designed to support the change you are seeking. Our work will help you move toward those desired shifts at a pace that feels right, while honoring what is most important to you.
