Hi, I’m Kayla Silguero, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families facing anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem concerns, grief, life transitions, relationship and family concerns, and emotional or behavioral challenges. I know reaching out can feel overwhelming, so I strive to create a welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and comfortable being yourself.
I'm a licensed psychologist, an assistant professor at a public university, and — in an earlier life — a musician who led a band around Hongdae in Seoul. I was born and raised in Korea and have since lived and worked across the U.S. and in Vietnam, so I know the experience of living between cultures from the inside.
I work with adults, adolescents, and children, in English and Korean, on ADHD and executive functioning; anxiety, stress, and depression; giftedness, creativity, and high performance (including performers and creative professionals); and bicultural and Korean-American identity, acculturation, and family dynamics across generations. I also see couples and families.
My doctorate is from one of the very few APA-accredited Combined (Counseling & School Psychology) programs in North America, and I've researched creativity and giftedness for more than ten years. Most of my work is by telehealth.

What truly sets me apart is my calm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental approach. I believe in meeting every individual exactly where they are, creating a safe and affirming space for open, honest communication. Together, we’ll build a collaborative relationship where goals, preferences, and values guide every step of your care. I am committed to providing stigma-free care; including those navigating challenges related to neurodivergence, substance use, trauma, identity or difficult past experiences. Everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and respected without fear of shame or judgment.
Hi, I am Dr. Maricon Revis, a licensed psychologist in the State of Texas. I am glad to meet you and pleased that you are choosing your journey towards healing. The greatest joy of being a therapist is truly making a positive impact on the lives of individuals. I am committed to inspiring clients to make healthier choices, create greater happiness, and live a satisfying life. My clinical practice is rooted in a strength-based perspective, and my therapeutic style includes warmth, openness, and collaboration. Common treatments I provide include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Psychotherapy. With comprehensive background experience in counseling and social services exceeding 20 years, I have developed expertise in trauma-informed care, anxiety, depression, grief, and military issues. My focus is empowering clients to use their strengths and gain insight using different tools, solutions, and coping skills.
It's easy to feel stuck in life with limited support. As a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience in private practice and inpatient settings, I strive to make my clients seen and heard for who they are.
Great to meet you!
