Hi, I’m Sharol Mejia. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas, and I primarily work with teen girls and adult women navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I’m currently pursuing my PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision, and I bring both clinical training and genuine compassion into my work.

My approach is grounded in warmth, authenticity, and the belief that healing begins when you feel truly seen, supported, and understood. I believe meaningful change often happens in the small “glimmers”—the moments of courage, softness, and growth you allow yourself to experience, even when things feel heavy or uncertain.

Many of the clients I work with feel overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, struggling with low self-esteem, or navigating difficult life transitions. You might look like you’re functioning on the outside, but inside you feel stuck, exhausted, or unsure of your next step.

My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and understood. Therapy with me is not about judgment. It is about helping you reconnect with your strengths, clarify what matters most to you, and move forward with greater confidence.
