Therapists in Texas

Hello, my name is Raquel Pace and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I have experience working with adults. My focus is to help you have a safe and judgment free environment where you may voice your thoughts. My counseling style is based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. The sessions will be tailored to correspond to your needs. It is important that you learn how to synthesize, analyze and chart the best course for your life. I hope to help you learn the connection of how our thoughts, emotions and behaviors are important in your life choices. As we complete our sessions, you will have the opportunity to explore your feelings in a safe and open environment. As you progress in counseling, I hope you feel comfortable in your learning process. As we go along our sessions, please feel free to clarify and ask any questions you may have. You will feel excited and empowered as you learn new skills on communicating your thoughts, displaying confidence in your daily decisions and constructing a foundation for working through any situation. I am truly happy to be working with you.

I am a clinical social worker licensed in both Colorado and Texas. I earned my license in 2017 and have been working as a psychotherapist for adults, adolescents, and groups. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, and processing through past trauma and abuse. I am additionally interested in helping clients address issues of spirituality and meaning. My counseling style is person-centered. I believe everyone is the expert of their own lives and experiences, and my role as counselor is to help guide clients toward change they want for themselves. I value nonjudmentalness, openness, and authenticity in counseling sessions. My background primarily includes cognitive behavioral therapies, including acceptance and commitment therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. I am also a certified EMDR therapist. Ultimately, I believe it is important to structure counseling sessions around your unique needs and goals. I look forward to meeting with you!
