Liliana Garza

Deciding to reach out for support takes courage. A safe, supportive space can help you feel heard, understood, and empowered as you work through life's challenges. Together, we can explore your thoughts and emotions, build on your strengths, and help you move toward healing, growth, and lasting well-being. I am a bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Professional Counselor with 21 years of counseling experience and a Master of Science in Counseling from the University of Houston Clear Lake. Over the years I have had the privilege of walking alongside children, adults, and families as they work through anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief and loss, anger, self-esteem, parenting, and relationship challenges. Whatever has led you here, know that you are welcome. We can begin this journey together, one step at a time.

My approach to therapy is holistic and client-centered, grounded in a warm, trusting, and safe space where you can heal and grow at your own pace. I tailor our work to what you need, drawing on proven, evidence-based methods: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to shift unhelpful thought patterns, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy to help you stay grounded in the present, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to build on the strengths you already have, psychodynamic work to understand the roots of recurring patterns, and Trauma-Focused CBT when past experiences still weigh on you. Above all, my goal is for you to feel understood, supported, and hopeful about the road ahead.

From our very first session, you will have a safe, supportive, and completely nonjudgmental space to share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at whatever pace feels right. Together we will get to know your story, identify what is weighing on you, and begin shaping goals that matter to you, as well as checking in on your progress along the way. You can expect me to listen closely, ask gentle questions, and meet you with genuine compassion. Asking for help is a powerful choice and the beginning of your healing, and I would be honored to walk that path with you.
