Jessica Murguia

Hello! I am Jessica Murguia, LPC and LMHC Supervised by Guillermo Castañeda, LPC-S . I earned Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Texas’ CACREP-accredited program.I believe that nurturing one’s mental health is essential for leading a fulfilling and balanced life. I am committed to facilitating meaningful change by recognizing and addressing people as whole beings. My goal is to help adults cultivate a healthy mind and a more enriching life. Tambien, hablo español!

I have trained in a range of therapeutic modalities, including Person-Centered Therapy and Trauma Focused Therapy. I also work with Gottman Method with couples, as well as with parenting skills. I am particularly passionate about being present in the here-and-now, as this mindfulness fosters self-understanding and facilitates meaningful change from within.

During our first session together, it is important to me that we take the time to get to know one another and begin building a comfortable, trusting therapeutic relationship. We will explore what brings you to therapy, what you hope to gain from the experience, and the goals you would like to work toward.

I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself and sharing at your own pace. Our first session may include discussing your current concerns, your personal history, relationships, strengths, and other areas of your life that may provide helpful context for understanding your experiences.

Therapy is a collaborative process, and we will work together to determine what approach feels most helpful for you. My hope is that you leave our first session feeling heard, understood, and confident that we have begun creating a space where meaningful change can take place.
