Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in College Station, TX

Every person has a story. The culmination of experiences in one's life shapes how they view themselves, their relationships, and the world. I have a passion for helping clients celebrate their unique strengths and gifts they share with others. With experiences in both private practice and hospitals, I have noticed a particular need for clients to separate their view of themselves from their current difficulties and circumstances. In spite of where clients may find themselves at the moment, my belief is that they have overcome every difficulty, challenge, and trauma that they have faced up to the present moment. As such, they will withstand their current circumstances, and will again declare victory.

Being a Marriage and Family Therapist, I fundamentally believe the family is a system and if something is going on with one person in the family, it will likely affect other members of the family. As such we are products of our environment. In working together, I will acknowledge that you are the expert of you and provide you with a safe space to explore concerns and build on strengths learning new healthy coping skills.

Finding the right mental health provider can feel like a big step — and I want you to know you're already in the right place.

When your mind never seems to slow down, it's easy to feel emotionally drained, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the life you want to be living. Anxiety, depression, constant stress, or painful experiences can make it difficult to be fully present with yourself and the people you care about. You don't have to keep carrying that weight alone. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, ADHD, depression, stress management, and trauma so they can quiet the constant mental noise, build healthier ways of coping, and feel more confident in their everyday lives. I work with adults, adolescents, and children because I believe healing begins when you feel genuinely understood, supported, and empowered to take meaningful steps toward lasting change.

To say "things aren't always easy" is often an understatement. Sometimes things are more than hard, and may have been piling up for a while. Whether you're battling depression, anxiety, grief, or changes in life, I'm here to help. I've worked with children, teens and adults in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, where they work to sort out their struggles. I have seen the damage trauma can do to relationships, but have also seen the power in connecting with others.

My philosophy begins inside the heart of my clients. As a former elementary teacher, I learned the valuable lesson that my clients will never care what I know or had to teach them until they knew I cared about them. This lesson is applicable in so many instances, and especially when I counsel. I enjoy getting to know every client on a personal level. I want to know them as a person, and especially what they enjoy most. That is one reason why I am passionate about Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This technique incorporates what clients are interesting in learning about themselves, which is often to engage and discover their true potential, and in doing so, they are more at ease to have meaningful conversations.

You're the one everyone relies on-the one who holds it all together, shows up, and keeps going even when you're exhausted. On the outside, things may look fine. On the inside, you might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns you can't seem to break. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone, and you don't have to keep doing it this way. I have extensive experience in supporting individuals, couples, and families in their most vulnerable moments. I bring a calm, grounded presence to situations of anxiety, trauma, and emotional distress.

My practice, Luna Encadenada Psychotherapy, reflects my ancestral roots and the values that guide my work. "Luna," my paternal grandmother's maiden name, evokes healing, cycles, and intuition. "Encadenada," derived from my maternal grandfather's surname, symbolizes strength through connection to self, family, and something greater.
