I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and retired nurse with more than 25 years of experience in healthcare, social work, and behavioral health. Born in Texas and raised in Brazil and Chile, I’ve spent much of my life moving between cultures. I provide therapy in English, Spanish, and Portuguese and bring that multicultural perspective into my work.
I work with adults navigating anxiety and overthinking, depression, relationship difficulties, narcissism, grief and loss, caregiver stress, aging, identity concerns, and major life transitions. I also provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and help who want to create a meaningful life on their own terms and figure out what you want the next chapter of their life to look like.
I have a particular interest in helping people who have spent years being the dependable one—the partner, parent, caregiver, professional, or person everyone else turns to—and are beginning to ask, “What about me?”
Are you in the blame game? Do you blame yourself for events and circumstances beyond your circle of control and influence? You’re one of the millions of people so trapped!

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself, therapy can be a space to slow down and begin reconnecting with what matters most. I support adults who are navigating life’s challenges and want to better understand themselves, their emotions, and the patterns shaping their lives.
My role is to be a steady, supportive presence as you explore your inner world and move toward healing and growth. I strive to create a positive, judgment-free space where you feel safe showing up as you are and beginning the healing process at your own pace.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lufkin
Searching for therapists in Lufkin starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look at the specialties listed in each profile and note the approaches they use, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their style.
In a smaller city like Lufkin, the number of local in-person appointments may be more limited than in larger Texas metros. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Texas. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. If you searched for counseling in Lufkin, TX, a licensed professional counselor near you, marriage counseling in Lufkin, or a psychotherapist near you in person, these details can help you decide which therapist is a practical fit.
Therapy in Lufkin can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you compare therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review profiles, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Lufkin, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
