Hi, I’m Nancy Cortez, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I earned my M.Ed. in Counseling and Guidance from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley and have been passionate about helping people grow and heal ever since. I’m excited to be here and look forward to working together in a space that feels safe, supportive, and encouraging. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered every step of the way.

With over 30 years in healthcare and a Master’s in Professional Counseling from Liberty University, I’ve spent the past 7 years offering therapy to a diverse range of clients. I focus on CBT and geriatric therapy, provide talk therapy, and support individuals through the grieving process. I work with those dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and loss.

Hi, I'm Kelley Kramer, a licensed professional counselor serving adults in Texas, Ohio, and Michigan. I help people work through anxiety, life transitions, relationship struggles, chronic stress, and mind-body symptoms using Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, CBT, and somatic approaches. My style is warm, collaborative, and curious, helping clients better understand the patterns that keep them stuck and reconnect with their strengths. For clients who desire it, I also offer Christian counseling that thoughtfully integrates faith into the therapeutic process.

Hello, and welcome. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) serving clients throughout Texas. I earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology and completed my LPC internship under the supervision of an exceptional LPC Supervisor here in Texas.

My experience spans a variety of mental health settings, including working as a case manager and service coordinator for individuals with developmental disabilities, a rehabilitation teacher in a state psychiatric hospital, a therapist on a geriatric behavioral health unit, and a counselor in medication-assisted treatment (MAT), substance use disorder (SUD) inpatient and outpatient programs, and individual counseling settings. These experiences have allowed me to support individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use disorders, grief, life transitions, and relationship challenges.

A primary focus of my work is helping individuals heal from trauma and anxiety. I have completed the training portion of Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), an evidence-based approach that uses bilateral eye movements similar to EMDR while incorporating its own unique treatment methods. Throughout my career, I have come to recognize how common trauma is and how profoundly it can impact a person's emotions, relationships, self-worth, and overall quality of life.

My counseling style is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each client's unique needs. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and respected. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, trauma, substance use, grief, or feeling stuck in life, my goal is to help you build insight, strengthen coping skills, and work toward meaningful change over time.

Life can feel heavy at times, and reaching out for support is a brave and meaningful first step. You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. You may be carrying stress, self-doubt, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or a general sense that something in your life no longer feels aligned. I offer a compassionate, culturally sensitive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, supported, and understood. My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself, strengthen self-compassion, and begin creating meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you. Therapy with me is a partnership. Together, we will explore what you are facing, identify your strengths, and build practical tools to help you move through life with more clarity, confidence, and hope. Vamos a caminar adelante con amor — we will move forward with love.

I care about my clients and have several years of experience providing solutions.

Licensed Private Counselor, MS, MEd., LPC, EMDR Trained

I am a Licensed Private Counselor serving clients in Texas. I believe all experiences in our lives whether good or bad can help a person grow by equipping themselves with knowledge and skills to better understand who they are as a person. All information about a person is important and can be used as a steppingstone toward wholeness and healing. I have worked with children, teens, adults, and people with special needs.

I'm a fellow millennial who gets just how tough "adulting" can be. Maybe your days are just passing by, life is feeling harder or less enjoyable than it should, or you do not have someone who "just gets you". Therapy is for everyone. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, or uncertain about which direction to take in life, I'm here to walk with you through it. Together, we'll explore where you are and where you want to go, at a pace that feels right for you.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in helping children, adolescents, and families navigate anxiety, behavioral challenges, emotional outbursts, school stress, low self-esteem, social difficulties, and major life transitions. I understand that when a child is struggling, the whole family can feel the impact. My goal is to provide support not only for your child, but for you as a parent as well.

Hi, I'm glad you're here! I’m a licensed therapist with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and life transitions. I offer a collaborative, supportive space where individuals feel understood and empowered to create meaningful change.

My background includes work in high-acuity settings such as correctional facilities, inpatient psychiatric units, and hospital-based outpatient care. At the Harris County Jail in Houston, Texas, I developed reentry-focused assessment tools to improve continuity of care between the court and medical systems.

I’ve been part of a team that built programs from the ground up, including a home visitation program for mothers, now offered through telehealth in both virtual and hybrid formats. I use structured therapeutic tools to help individuals actively engage in treatment.

I have a focused interest in depression, anxiety, grief, and women’s mental health, including pregnancy and postpartum. I offer telehealth sessions across Texas, with insurance and private pay options available.
