Angel Ramos Estrada

Angel Ramos Estrada

Therapist

Virtual • Killeen, TX


My name is Angel Ramos Estrada, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and founder of Keystone Clinical Services PLLC. I am passionate about helping individuals, couples, families, and veterans navigate life's challenges while fostering resilience, healing, and personal growth.

Before becoming a social worker, I proudly served over 20 years in the United States Army. My military experience shaped my values of integrity, compassion, and service, which continue to guide my work as a therapist. Throughout my career, I have worked in school social work, hospice care, and outpatient mental health, providing support to clients facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and major life transitions.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative, client-centered, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to identify their strengths and achieve meaningful change.

As a bilingual clinician fluent in English and Spanish, I am committed to making quality mental health care accessible to diverse communities. I believe every individual has the capacity for growth, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they work toward healthier, more fulfilling lives.

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


Welcome to Family Forward Therapy, a Texas-based group practice offering virtual therapy for children, teens, adults, couples, and families. Our team includes therapists with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and areas of focus so we can help connect you with someone who fits your individual needs.

I’m Roberto Martinez, therapist and founder of Family Forward Therapy. I’ve built a team of clinicians with different backgrounds, specialties, and experiences so that clients have more options when looking for the right therapist.

We work with concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship and family challenges, parenting stress, grief, life transitions, and more. Our clinicians also bring experience working with populations and concerns that can sometimes be harder to find specialized support for.

When you schedule through this profile, you are connecting with Family Forward Therapy rather than only one individual therapist. After you book, we may contact you briefly to learn what type of therapy you’re seeking and what you would like help with. Based on your needs, preferences, availability, and insurance, your appointment may be reassigned to another therapist within our practice who may be a better fit.

Our goal is simple: help you get connected with the right therapist without having to spend weeks searching.
