Luis Cortez

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


I’m a licensed clinical social worker who works with adults around anxiety, mood concerns, relationships, and feeling stuck in patterns that don’t seem to change. I care a lot about creating a real, human connection in therapy—not just giving advice or tools. My style is warm and collaborative, but also honest and thoughtful. I believe therapy works best when support and personal responsibility go hand in hand.

Alejandra Dozal

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


I am a holistic, trauma-informed psychotherapist, traditional medicine apprentice, and the founder of The Collab. Grounded in values of honesty, deep respect, and genuine connection, my practice views mental health through a multi-dimensional lens—honoring the profound relationship between mind, body, spirit, and community. My mission is to provide culturally responsive, decolonial care that moves away from rigid, one-size-fits-all frameworks and instead centers collective healing, generational resilience, and the unique cultural contexts of every individual I serve.

I hold a Master of Education in Guidance and Counseling from the University of Texas at El Paso. Over my career, I have specialized in serving children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating complex trauma, life transitions, grief, and anxiety. I create an authentic, inclusive space where clients of all backgrounds can safely untangle complex narratives, honor their unique heritage, and discover their innate capacity for self-healing.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Texas

Searching for therapists in Texas starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across a state as large and varied as Texas, therapy needs and available therapists can differ across urban, suburban, and rural areas. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. Review each therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and experience to see whether their background matches your needs. Some therapists may use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, while others may focus on specific populations or concerns.

Location and format also matter when comparing Texas therapists. In larger areas like Houston, Dallas, and Austin, you may have many choices, while other parts of the state may have fewer local options. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility or easier access from home. As you narrow your search, look at 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 how they describe their style, what sessions may feel like, and whether their communication approach fits your preferences.

The cost of therapy in Texas can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Texas therapists who match your preferences, accept your insurance, and are ready to take new patients. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. From there, you can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
