Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 29 years of experience helping adults, children, and families transform their lives. I help clients cope with depression, anxiety, anger, coping skills issues, and past traumas. Together, we will clear the path toward your mental health goals, breaking down big obstacles into manageable steps. Your courage brought you here, and my expertise is here to support you the rest of the way. Let’s build the future you deserve.
Throughout life's journey, all of us face difficult challenges as well as times of reflection and growth. I have a passion for helping others through difficult times and love working with clients helping to facilitate insight and healing in their personal journey. In 2017, I opened Ponderado M Counseling Services, LLC on a ranch in La Grange, Texas. The counseling office is nestled around animals and the outdoors as they are used to create a unique therapeutic environment and opportunity for the client outside the traditional office setting.
- My approach to therapy is interactive and collaborative, focused on your self discovery and growth. I see our work as a partnership where your voice, values, and goals matter. Together, we will explore what is bringing you to therapy and clarify the changes you hope to see in your life, relationships, and overall sense of well being.
- I prefer to join in with my clients rather than sit back and simply observe. We will actively work together to identify patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that enhance your quality of life. I will offer gentle guidance, ask thoughtful questions, and invite your feedback so our sessions feel useful and relevant to you.
- I believe the therapy relationship is designed to support the change you are seeking. Our work will help you move toward those desired shifts at a pace that feels right, while honoring what is most important to you. If you are ready to explore your next steps in a collaborative, supportive space, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
My goal is to create a safe space where the superman cape, the mask, the facade that you've had to show the world can come down. That cape is really heavy.
I want to extend a special invitation to those in the helping professions: this is a safe place to discuss those crazy stories, and know you'll never feel judged or looked down on. As a former social worker, I can tell you I've seen my own share of the best and worst humanity has to offer. My dark sense of humor is a load-bearing structure.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Nacogdoches
Searching for therapists in Nacogdoches starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Their profile can also show how they work, including approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed therapy, or family therapy.
In a smaller city like Nacogdoches, local in-person availability may be more limited than in larger Texas markets. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Texas. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Nacogdoches can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can compare profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
