Life can be challenging! Taking a step out of one's comfort zone to ask for help is never easy. I would love to help you asses your current situation. Together, we can then work at making changes that are positive in the present, as well as setting goals and taking action for your future. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Professional School Counselor in Texas, I have supported many individuals on their journey. I enjoy working with adolescents, adults, and families who are struggling with low self esteem, anxiety, parenting problems, grief and/or depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My style combines cognitive-behavioral therapy and reality therapy, utilizing a strength based, solution focused approach. I look forward to working with you!

Leticia Cervantes
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas, who has worked in the mental health field over 25 years, in various settings and roles, including: psychiatric hospitals, mental health clinics, and private practice settings, with multiple populations. Each has helped me build an eclectic approach in my therapy. I believe in meeting the client "where they are," and a cookie-cutter approach does not work for everyone. I use cognitive behavioral, dialectic, brief solution-focused, and mindfulness techniques to assist my clients in meeting their therapeutic goals. I am a bit silly, a bit serious. I've been accused of being "too positive" and "brutally honest" at times, but I do believe in adapting and learning from every situation. It takes great courage and resilience to seek assistance from a total stranger, and it would be my honor to navigate in this journey with you. I am available Saturdays by appointment only.

Dr. Carol Bunch
Who do you go to when life hurts? What do you do when problems arise? Where do you go when the stigma of traditional counseling is not an option? I am here to assist you with online counseling. I counsel individuals, couples, and families. I have been in private practice since September, 1999. I have been a board Certified TeleMental Health counselor since 2014. I believe that each of us have the ability to heal our hurts through forgiveness and the mending our broken hearts. Some of the issues that I work with are substance abuse, depression, forgiveness, anger, relationship issues, sexual assault, domestic violence, PTSD and career choices. I guess I'm considered a generalist although I'm trained in domestic violence, sexual assault, substance abuse and career counseling. When we look at those areas in our lives, many issues arise such as depression, anxiety, relationships, communication, anger, divorce and others. I believe that God has called me to heal the broken hearts so that we can live again. I believe that there is value in each of you and sometimes we can't see our self worth because of our pain.
