Gilan Merwanji

Hi, I’m Gilan (LCSW), founder of GK Preserve Group, LLC.

With 10+ years of experience in serving clients, and a academic background in law and social work helps me connect with people who are navigating high-pressure environments while quietly carrying anxiety, stress, or self-doubt.

I offer virtual therapy to adults and young adults across Texas who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and burnout; feeling down or lacking motivation; dealing with trauma; navigating relationship issues, or identity-related stress.

Many of my clients feel stuck between worlds—balancing cultural/societal expectations, family responsibilities, worldly pressure, and their own needs.

I’m trained in EMDR and TEAM-CBT - two approaches that, when done well, go beyond just talking. They help you see yourself with more compassion and find a clearer path forward.

My approach is compassionate, culturally responsive, and focused on helping you feel more grounded, understood, and empowered. I invite you to come as you are—no pressure to have it all figured out.

In therapy, we’ll focus on building trust, understanding your goals, and identifying the patterns that may be holding you back. I tailor therapy sessions to your short and long-term needs, to help you process what's heavy and develop practical tools that work in real life. I’m here to support you in finding clarity, confidence, and relief.

You can expect to leave sessions feeling heard, grounded, and supported—with a clearer sense of self and practical tools to help navigate daily life.

We'll work at your pace and focus on what matters most to you—whether that's managing anxiety, healing from trauma, building boundaries, or reconnecting with your sense of self.

Therapy with me isn’t just about insight—it’s about meaningful, lasting change and connection.

If you are ready to heal, reach out to me to schedule a free consultation call.
