Hello, my name is Celinda Barron, and have been licensed as a Professional Counselor since 2019. I have a Masters of Arts in Guidance and Counseling. As a dedicated and compassionate therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating the challenges of anxiety, depression, ADHD, and family issues. I offer affirming and inclusive care for gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals, and I am deeply committed to creating a safe and supportive space for exploring identity, relationships, and life transitions.

My work also includes helping clients process and heal from grief, trauma, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I understand how complex and personal each journey is, and I strive to meet each person with empathy, respect, and authenticity.

Therapeutic Approach

I use a collaborative, evidence-based approach tailored to your needs and goals. My practice draws from:

  • Motivational Interviewing (MI) – to help explore ambivalence and build motivation for change
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors
  • Humanistic Therapy – to foster self-awareness, personal growth, and emotional healing
  • Behavioral Management Therapy – to develop practical strategies for daily challenges, particularly with ADHD and behavioral concerns

Whether you're facing internal struggles, interpersonal difficulties, or identity-related stress, I am here to walk with you—offering guidance, skills, and support every step of the way.

If you’ve been carrying too much for too long, therapy can be a place to finally exhale. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas and Oklahoma, and I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, life transitions, trauma, and recovery from narcissistic abuse. Many of my clients feel emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, disconnected from themselves, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to offer a compassionate, supportive space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to heal, grow, and make meaningful changes.

I am an eclectic therapist that combines emotion-focused strategies with psychotherapeutic evidence-based approaches. The underlying principles in her approach are that treating anxiety, depression, relationship dysfunction, self-esteem and more can be traced to experiences, beliefs of shame, trauma, and other negative core beliefs in an individual. Finding out these aspects of a person’s life, naming them, and working through them are components of her counseling process.
