Hi there, I'm Juan Pablo.

I am a compassionate and dedicated Mental Health Therapist, committed to helping individuals achieve emotional well-being and inner harmony. With a deep passion for mental health, I have cultivated a wealth of experience in providing empathetic and evidence-based therapeutic support to my clients. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a a holistic approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit.

I believe therapy should feel like a conversation, not an interrogation. My role isn’t to tell you what to do—it’s to walk alongside you, helping you better understand yourself, work through life’s challenges, and build the confidence and skills to move forward. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Person-Centered Therapy, and strengths-based techniques, but I also believe the most important part of therapy is the relationship we build together.

Every person is different, so I tailor therapy to meet your unique needs. With younger children, that may look like play-based therapy. With teens and adults, it often feels like a comfortable conversation where you can be yourself without fear of judgment. My goal is for every client to leave feeling heard, supported, and equipped with practical tools they can use in everyday life.

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck? You don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where individuals, couples, and families can heal, grow, and thrive. Together, we’ll build on your strengths using evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, or major life transitions begin affecting every part of your life. You may be exhausted from trying to hold everything together, questioning your next step, or feeling like you've lost touch with the person you want to be. Change doesn't happen overnight, but it can begin with one conversation. I partner with individuals experiencing depression, grief and loss, relationship issues, identity issues, and trauma so they can rebuild confidence, strengthen their relationships, and create a life that feels more balanced, connected, and fulfilling. Working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families, I strive to create a compassionate, collaborative environment where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to grow.

I am a down to earth and warm therapist with 20 years of experience. I live and work in a rich Hispanic and military connected community. I believe that mental health and handling our emotions effectively is a key to success and positive growth/relationships. During my experience, I have focused from children to adults, who are struggling with handling emotions, anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and focus. Today, by stepping into counseling is a great step for positive growth and change!!

I'm a fellow millennial who gets just how tough "adulting" can be. Maybe your days are just passing by, life is feeling harder or less enjoyable than it should, or you do not have someone who "just gets you". Therapy is for everyone. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, or uncertain about which direction to take in life, I'm here to walk with you through it. Together, we'll explore where you are and where you want to go, at a pace that feels right for you.

I believe everyone needs help from time to time.

I specialize in evening and weekend appointments. Later appointments are available, please request your needs.

I am a friendly goal-oriented therapist who believes strongly in positive self-reinforcement. I have a Master's degree from La Tech University with a background in private practice for over 20 years. I am Licensed in Louisiana and Texas as a professional counselor. I am also Licensed as a marriage and family therapist in Louisiana.

I am here for anyone who seeks uncommon peace and lasting contentment regardless of circumstances. As a therapist and theologian, I will (upon request) seamlessly weave Christian faith and mental wellness, treating both with equal reverence. Serenity is found where gratitude, intentional thought-authoring, emotional regulation, and value-driven alignment grow. Let's do this!
