Therapists in Texas

My name is Graciela Rios. I have been a working in the mental health field in El Paso, Tx. since 2006. I have extensive training working with individuals as well as families. I have specialized training in EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy) as well as CAPACITAR -which utilizes "holistic wellness practices that help people tap into the wisdom of their own body, mind and spirit". I have been trained to treat depression, anxiety, grief and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) I truly believe everybody has the power to overcome life challenges if they learn how to utilize their inner resources.

I have a passion in making a treatment difference in each client and couple in my practice. My experience in counseling, therapy over the past 25 years ranges from mood disorders, depression, anxiety, including various instances of comorbidity with such issues of generalized anxiety and particular gradience in depression; I have been in private practice since retirement from public school administration in 1994. More generally, I have maintained a general practice in treating a wide range of personal and family issues; Much of my practice has included couple therapy and I have conducted over 800 child custody evaluations. I have maintained contract services with two major independent school districts delivering therapeutic services to students (grades 6-12). My main theoretical orientation is in cognitive behavior therapy, client centered therapy and psychodynamic theory. I believe in doing "no harm" and in the dignity and empathy for each individual in delivering the utmost treatment in individual and group therapy.

I absolutely love what I do and I view each day as an opportunity to increase in love, peace, joy, and believing that all other increase (i.e. spiritual and material things) will naturally follow. Not only do I work to increase myself, but I also absolutely love helping others to increase in these areas. I primarily use Cognitive Behavior Therapy, with a mix of Solution based Therapy, and Person Center Therapy, and many different skills and interventions. I have worked in various settings; with clients from many different cultural/ethnic groups; and with various presenting problems. These presenting problems include major depression, anxiety; bipolar disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, Psychosis, suicidal crisis and multiple suicide attempts; and well as feelings of self harm and harm to others; and other many other problems. When working with clients I like to begin to build the client and therapist relationship/rapport right away, and use this to create individualized treatment for each client. Whenever you make the decision to think about change in your life and/or are ready to begin change, I want to be here for you every step of the way. I pray each day "Lord let today be an adventure and not just a chore". I have been to the deepest depth of depression, death fear, hopelessness, worthlessness to highest out of control points of mania with very risky and reckless behavior and then back to living each day as the "best me". I desire to help guide you through the rough and tough times in life and all the way to truly living "your very best you and your very best life". Whenever you are ready really live your life, and not simply exist, I will be here waiting for you.

Hello! I am a licensed professional counselor licensed in Texas with over 15 years of experience working as a therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar, schizophrenia, PTSD, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

The settings I have worked in include, inpatient hospitals, inpatient and outpatient substance use disorder treatment facilities, community mental health clinics, schools, wilderness challenge camps, school campuses, and correctional facilities. After hours, I spend a great deal of time volunteering in the community. I have focused a great deal of hours helping veterans via groups and individual counseling, as well as, PTSD awareness campaigns. I have also spent a great deal of time working with local and state mental health advocacy programs such as NAMI, Behavioral Health Advisory Council and many others. My counseling style is warm, interactive, and laid back. I listen. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, cognitive processing therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. My primary motivation is to help facilitate changes in behaviors based upon the client's needs and goals. I have worked with a range of clientele from strongly motivated to very resistant. The foundation is creating a therapeutic alliance and setting a pace toward client independence. Seeing the potential in each of my clients is great, but helping you see your own potential is beautiful.

Hello, my name is Jaclyn Trevino. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Texas. I began my role as a counselor when I graduated with my Masters in Community Counseling in 2013. I am passionate about assisting others in reaching their goals through a warm and collaborative process. I believe that seeking help to better oneself takes courage and self-awareness, qualities that I truly appreciate and reflect during the therapeutic relationship. I have counseling experience assisting clients that are struggling in their current life circumstances, with anxiety, grief, depression, and communication/relational problems. We will respectfully work together to identify obstacles, gain insight into challenges and create strategies to overcome them. I believe that individuals are responsible for their own behaviors, thoughts, and feelings, but occasionally need help processing it all. I hope to facilitate for my clients greater self-awareness through their life experiences which may lead to increased confidence, peace, self-esteem, independence and the capacity to effectively navigate the complex challenges of life. I am here to support you and assist you on your journey of personal growth.

We all have unique needs and goals from treatment. As this is true, I do not offer a one size fits all approach. Various causes and conditions impact us each differently and it is in the partnership we form, the co-operation we engage in, and how progress towards goals are made. Motivation for change in any area also varies and this is what creates our unique experience together. I offer a safe and non-judgemental space to express thoughts, feelings, and actions that may be impacting your life. I offer experience in several treatment approaches and personalities. I work to help bring awareness and self-exploration to the extent one would like to experience. I am presently a LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) and LCDC (Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor) in the State of Texas. I have supplemented these with a CTP (Clinical Trauma Professional) certification and a CEF (Certified Experiential Facilitator - Deep Waters Recovery Program).
