I’m Perla Abeyta, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the founder of Strength Within Counseling. I work with teens, adults, and couples who are navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, chronic stress, and difficult life transitions. I have particular experience working with veterans and military-connected clients, but my practice is open to anyone who is looking for support in understanding what they’ve been through, developing healthier patterns, and moving forward with greater confidence.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who welcomes clients ages 14 and older. I am a mother and retired Army veteran who served in military intelligence as a Chinese Cryptologic Linguist.
My work as a forensic interviewer for children who experienced abuse and neglect strengthened my ability to sit with difficult stories and provide safe, trauma-informed care. My lived experiences with trauma, abuse, and autoimmune illness have also shaped my understanding of the mind-body connection.
Hi, I'm glad you're here! I’m a licensed therapist with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and life transitions. I offer a collaborative, supportive space where individuals feel understood and empowered to create meaningful change.
My background includes work in high-acuity settings such as correctional facilities, inpatient psychiatric units, and hospital-based outpatient care. At the Harris County Jail in Houston, Texas, I developed reentry-focused assessment tools to improve continuity of care between the court and medical systems.
I’ve been part of a team that built programs from the ground up, including a home visitation program for mothers, now offered through telehealth in both virtual and hybrid formats. I use structured therapeutic tools to help individuals actively engage in treatment.
I have a focused interest in depression, anxiety, grief, and women’s mental health, including pregnancy and postpartum. I offer telehealth sessions across Texas, with insurance and private pay options available.
- 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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Pasadena
Finding family therapists in Pasadena starts with knowing what your family wants to work on together. Family therapy can support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication patterns across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare Pasadena therapists, look for experience with your specific needs, such as parent-teen support, marriage counseling, or family sessions that include multiple generations.
Pasadena is a smaller local market, so the number of nearby family therapists may be more limited than in Houston or other larger Texas cities. Virtual care can expand your options while still giving you access to licensed therapists in Texas. Some family therapy sessions include the full family, while others focus on parents, siblings, couples, or individual family members. Before booking, read each therapist’s profile to understand their approach, session structure, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Family therapy in Pasadena can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, and you can review which providers accept your plan and are accepting new patients. You can review bios, see estimated costs before booking, and choose between in-person and virtual appointments when available.
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.
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.
