Many of us can use mental health support at some point in our lives. When it comes to finding a therapist, Pearland, TX can offer more choice than surrounding rural areas, but even in a city it isn’t always easy to find the right mental health services.
One challenge is that counseling services can vary greatly depending on the therapeutic approach used by the therapist. Just like in traditional medicine, psychotherapy offers a lot of specialization and which approach is most effective can depend on the individual and the mental health challenge being addressed. For example, a therapist who has gained extensive experience working in couples counseling may not feel comfortable offering counseling services for someone experiencing complex unresolved trauma. What you need may not necessarily be available nearby.
That’s where online therapy through an online platform like BetterHelp can be beneficial. BetterHelp offers access to over 30,000 mental health professionals like psychologists, social workers, and licensed professional counselors (LPC). These providers have expertise in a variety of approaches, from cognitive behavioral therapy to Christian counseling, and have experience working with diverse populations. Whether you are looking for someone who can understand overcoming adversity, or knows the feelings of being a first generation college student, BetterHelp can connect you with a therapist who can offer a person-centered experience. Simply fill out an online questionnaire and BetterHelp will match you with a therapist who meets your individual needs.
Online therapy can also be a convenient solution for busy professionals, parents, and students. Online sessions fit easily into any schedule, and with video chat, phone, and text messaging options you can talk to your therapist from the comfort of your own home or office.
Whether you have been thinking about therapy to manage symptoms of a mental health condition, get support for achieving life goals, or learn to build healthy relationships, there is no better time to get started. Reach out to BetterHelp to prioritize mental health and wellness, and move forward in your healing process.

Hello, here are a few things about me. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in Texas with more than 8 years of experience in a variety of settings and individuals with a wide range of issues. I work with men and women to address issues and bring focus to present and future goals. Couples, various relationship dynamics and individuals to identify challenges and reach goals. We all experience human conditions that can be difficult to navigate like depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, addiction, and processing trauma, to name a few. You don't have to navigate it alone. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels so I focus on what my client needs. I use many theories like cognitive-behavioral, narrative, and psychodynamic to name a few, and provide an open and safe environment to explore your concerns without pressure or judgment. Because we all process information differently we will work together to develop a plan of action tailored to your strengths, goals, and needs. It takes courage to reach out and want something more for yourself, and your life. Taking the first step toward change can be challenging. If you are ready I am fully committed to working hard with you from beginning to success. I look forward to working with you!

Hi, I’m Carol Mendoza, MA, LPC-S. I am a licensed therapist based in Texas, bringing more than 20 years of dedicated professional counseling experience to my practice. My journey into counseling began during my time in the military, where I spent my over a decade on active duty serving as a counselor. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working in various settings, including three psychiatric hospitals, a private practice specializing in psychiatric testing for social security benefits, and in outpatient mental health services (catering to both children and adults). I've also had the honor of working closely with veterans who have bravely served our country overseas and here at home. My therapeutic expertise encompasses anxiety, depression, anger management, mood disorders, motivation, self-esteem, and trauma, and my counseling philosophy is very much aligned with Solution-Focused Therapy. I firmly believe in approaching each individual with the utmost respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Together, we'll tailor our sessions to align with your unique goals and needs. Taking the step towards therapy requires courage — it's the first step towards transforming your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I’m so proud you’ve taken the first step, and you should be, too! I'm here to walk alongside you, offering support, encouragement, and empowerment throughout your journey. Outside of my professional life, I cherish spending time with my husband, our two dogs, and our large extended family. I find joy in activities like reading, biking, camping, fishing, and embracing the beauty of the outdoors —especially butterflies. Currently, I only offer evening hours and some availability on Saturdays.
