Grief counselors and therapists in Brownsville, TX

Hi, I’m Alice! I’m a dually certified Nurse Practitioner who takes an open-minded, direct, and solution-oriented approach to care. I work with clients on both their mental health and overall well-being, and I believe in creating a safe, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. Together, we’ll focus on finding practical steps and solutions that help you feel better and more in control of your life.

Hello and welcome,

I’m a dedicated therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges. I am truly passionate about the work I do and feel honored to walk alongside my clients as they navigate difficult moments and work toward healing and growth.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique needs. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. I believe that meaningful change happens when we feel genuinely seen and empowered.

I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other modalities. This allows me to adapt our work together in a way that best supports your goals and experiences.

I have experience working with individuals facing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and marital concerns. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking for support and clarity, I am here to help you move forward at your own pace.

I look forward to the opportunity to work together.
