Hi there! I am glad we have crossed paths, and am here to help you navigate through life's challenges. Maybe you're dealing with relationship issues, a life transition, self-esteem issues, grief & loss, or simply trying to find yourself. If you're feeling confused and overwhelmed with emotion, deciding to meet with a therapist can be the first step toward relief.

I have nearly 20 years of experience helping people find answers to the difficulties they face. I believe you are the expert as it relates to your symptoms and your life experiences. My role is to collaborate with you, offer guidance and insight, and work together with you toward your goals. Ultimately, I feel it is most important that there is a strong rapport between you and me, and that you feel comfortable in an easygoing, non-judgmental atmosphere. I would love to have the opportunity to help you tap into your strengths, and discover the personal peace and fulfillment we all want out of life. Let's Do This!

Have you been through something so painful that it feels too heavy to carry on your own? Hi, I’m Manuela Aguilar, a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I work with people navigating trauma, anxiety, and overwhelming life experiences. Many of the folks I see are healing from domestic violence, sexual assault, or other deeply distressing events and are looking for a safe place to feel like themselves again.

Deciding to start therapy takes courage, and finding the right therapist is one of the most important parts of the process. I want to make that decision a little easier by telling you a bit about who I am and how I work.

I've been in private practice for almost 20 years, and over that time I've had the privilege of working with a wide range of people — from children and adolescents navigating the challenges of growing up, to adults facing the pressures of relationships, career transitions, grief, anxiety, and everything in between. That breadth of experience has shaped me into a therapist who is adaptable, attuned, and genuinely invested in the unique needs of each person who walks through my door.

Over the course of my career, I've worked in a variety of clinical settings before establishing my private practice — and those experiences gave me a well-rounded foundation that I draw from every single day. I've seen firsthand that people come to therapy with different backgrounds, different comfort levels, and very different goals. That's not a challenge — it's something I genuinely love about this work. No two clients are the same, and I never treat them as if they are.

Whether you're dealing with something acute and overwhelming, or a quieter, longer-standing struggle you've never quite been able to shake, I'm here to help you make sense of it and move through it in a way that actually works for your life.

Hi, I’m a licensed professional counselor and the founder of Transformed Therapy in Houston, TX. Since 2008, I’ve been walking alongside individuals, and families as they navigate anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, spiritual concerns, and major life transitions. While I work with men and women, as well as children and teens, a large part of my work is focused on helping men who are facing internal battles—feeling stuck, burned out, disconnected, or unsure of how to lead well in their families, careers, and personal lives.

Whether you're carrying stress silently, dealing with anger or shame, questioning your purpose, or struggling to be the individual you want to be, I provide a place where you can be honest, real, and heard. My approach is practical, faith-centered, and grounded in personal accountability, growth, and grace.

Before launching Transformed Therapy, I served as Director at Memorial Christian Counseling Center and CEO at Integrative Mental Health Solutions, leading crisis response teams across Houston. I also spent 11 years in full-time ministry as a youth and outreach minister, which deeply shaped my commitment to soul care and spiritual restoration.

I hold a Master of Education in Counseling from the University of North Texas and a BA in Philosophy from UT Arlington. When I’m not in session, I’m spending time outdoors with my wife and our five kids—camping, fishing, gardening, or simply enjoying God's creation.

If you're ready to step into change—whether it’s for your mental health, your marriage, your faith, or your identity—I’d be honored to walk with you.

You know that feeling when you're an adult and still quietly wondering if everyone else got a manual you never received? That's who I work with most. I help adults who are moving through a major life transition, a new career, the end of a relationship, a move to an unfamiliar place, and realizing the plan they were handed doesn't fit the life they're actually living. A lot of the people who come to me are also carrying grief, trying to figure out how to keep going when something or someone in their world is permanently missing. My clients often tell me they feel genuinely heard here, not managed.
