Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Harlingen, TX

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.

As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.

My experience centers on supporting clients of all ages through a wide range of life challenges. Guided by a solution-focused perspective, I believe holistic healing is a foundational part of effective client care. I am trained in EMDR, a therapeutic modality that helps clients process trauma and other difficult life experiences that may interfere with personal growth, relationships, and mental health. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and other concerns that can make it difficult to feel grounded or move forward. I hold a master’s degree from Colorado Christian University and have received training in both play therapy and EMDR. I have also worked with clients experiencing dual diagnoses within the field of substance use disorders, which has deepened my understanding of the connection between emotional pain, coping, and healing.

Hi, I'm glad you're here! I’m a licensed therapist with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and life transitions. I offer a collaborative, supportive space where individuals feel understood and empowered to create meaningful change.

My background includes work in high-acuity settings such as correctional facilities, inpatient psychiatric units, and hospital-based outpatient care. At the Harris County Jail in Houston, Texas, I developed reentry-focused assessment tools to improve continuity of care between the court and medical systems.

I’ve been part of a team that built programs from the ground up, including a home visitation program for mothers, now offered through telehealth in both virtual and hybrid formats. I use structured therapeutic tools to help individuals actively engage in treatment.

I have a focused interest in depression, anxiety, grief, and women’s mental health, including pregnancy and postpartum. I offer telehealth sessions across Texas, with insurance and private pay options available.

Hey, I'm Kwanza. I graduated in 2020 from Johnson C Smith University with my Master's in social work. I have 4 years of experience working with children, adults, and families to overcome trauma.

I believe that my clients are the experts of their lives.

When holding space for clients, I provide a space where they can unpack their feelings, express their emotions, and develop skills to help them live a healthier life.

I believe that healing and growth happen within a trusting therapeutic relationship. Clients often describe me as compassionate, approachable, and genuine. I strive to create an environment where you feel safe to share openly, ask questions, and explore difficult emotions without fear of judgment.

While I offer support and validation, I also believe in helping clients challenge patterns, beliefs, and behaviors that may no longer be serving them. Therapy is not about being "fixed"; it's about understanding yourself more deeply, developing effective coping skills, and creating a life that feels more aligned with your values and goals.

Experienced in providing care, interventions designed to promote mental and physical health. Empathetic, culturally competent and results oriented.

Sometimes you know you need support, but you may not know exactly how to put what you're feeling into words. You might be carrying stress from work, family, relationships, or past experiences while trying to keep everything moving. Maybe you're feeling anxious, discouraged, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to move forward after something difficult has happened. I work with children, adolescents, teens, and adults from diverse backgrounds who are navigating difficult experiences, trauma, life changes, and emotional challenges. As a counselor in Texas for more than 14 years, my goal is to meet you where you are and help you find a path forward that feels meaningful to you.
