Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Stafford, TX

I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care. As a Doctor of Nursing Practice and Board-Certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I approach every patient with respect, empathy, and a focus on safety. My clinical decisions are grounded in current research, best practices, and your individual needs.

I believe in a collaborative and transparent treatment process. I value open communication. I want you to feel comfortable discussing your symptoms, concerns, and goals so we can work together to create a plan that truly supports your mental health.

I’m Jose, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in El Paso, and I work with people of all ages, from teens through older adults. I know reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, so I aim to make the process comfortable and approachable. I’m patient, a little funny, and willing to be direct when it matters. My goal is to offer a supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and respected.

Hello, I'm Liliana! With over two and a half years of experience across residential and group practice settings, I have worked with individuals navigating addiction, depression, anxiety, trauma, personality disorders, and adjustment disorders. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and trauma-informed care, and I am trained in EMDR — an evidence-based approach for processing difficult experiences. I work with adolescents (15+), young adults, adults, and older adults, and I bring a comforting, reliable, and genuinely understanding presence to every session. My goal is for you to feel safe and supported from the moment we connect.

I have a passion for helping people navigate life's challenges. Seeking help can feel like a big step, but it is also a powerful one. I offer a collaborative and nonjudgemental space for discovering strengths and with helping you feel empowered.

Life can feel overwhelming when you are carrying more than you can manage on your own while trying to balance work, relationships, family responsibilities, and daily stress. You may be navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or family challenges while feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. Over time, that pressure can show up as chronic worry, burnout, sadness, emotional overwhelm, anger, or a growing sense of disconnection from yourself and others. I specialize in anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, family issues, and grief or loss. I work with adolescents, adults, and children, and as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas with 12 years of experience, my goal is to create a supportive space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to move toward healing and meaningful change.

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.
