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 here for anyone who seeks uncommon peace and lasting contentment regardless of circumstances. As a therapist and theologian, I will (upon request) seamlessly weave Christian faith and mental wellness, treating both with equal reverence. Serenity is found where gratitude, intentional thought-authoring, emotional regulation, and value-driven alignment grow. Let's do this!

Audrena Kelley, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder/owner of For You I Will Services & Consulting, PLLC who is also entering her final year of her Doctorate of Social Work program. As a social work professional, I've worked with adolescents, adults, couples, and families from diverse cultures, backgrounds, and socioeconomic status. Individuals ages 18 and older are only being accepted at this time.

I enjoy working with people of color and others of diverse backgrounds to help them navigate through the life events that contribute to depression, anxiety, adjustment challenges, or any other emotional irregularities that affect their ability to function the way they want to.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience, I have supported children, teens, and adults through a wide range of challenges, including depression, trauma and PTSD, family issues, anger and stress management and chronic conditions including various health disabilities. My approach is compassionate, honest, and personalized. I take time to listen, understand your experiences, and help you identify practical steps toward healing and meaningful change. As a spiritual and active person with diverse life experiences, I bring empathy, perspective, and genuine support to every session.

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming. I aim to create a safe, collaborative, and grounded space from the beginning. I meet clients where they are and move at a pace that feels manageable and respectful.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, trauma, addiction, and relationship challenges. I also specialize in complex and developmental trauma.

I support clients in integrating their spiritual and cultural values into therapy when desired and clinically appropriate. I was born in New Orleans and bring a culturally informed perspective shaped by my Latina, Indigenous, Christian, and Sephardic Jewish backgrounds.

I became a therapist because I have a deep commitment to helping people recognize and build their own strengths, especially during periods of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. I understand that seeking support takes courage, and I work to create a space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported throughout the process.

I earned a Master of Social Work (MSW) and PhD from Tulane University, as well as a Master of Public Health (MPH) from Tulane University’s School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana and Texas, and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Minnesota. I also hold a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC), Licensed Prevention Professional (LPP), and Certified Employee Assistance Professional (CEAP).

I am a doctoral-prepared nurse (DNP) and a dual-certified nurse practitioner (FNP-C/PMHNP-BC) with more than twenty years of nursing experience. I am great at combining my clinical skills with a holistic approach to patient care, with a goal of helping you feel understood and empowered. I am committed to improving patient outcomes through clear communication and care planning and implementing evidence-based treatment plans.

I specialize in supporting clients (Spanish & English) navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, and cultural or ethnic identity-related concerns. I am passionate about my profession. I enjoy teaching social work and providing social work services. I believe that social work is a calling and therefore, I am being called to serve.

I obtained a bachelor's in Social Work at Prairie View A & M University and a Masters in Social Work at the University of Houston. I am a native Houstonian, and bilingual (Spanish/English.)
