Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or worried about your child or family? I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20+ years of experience helping children, parents, and caregivers through big feelings and life changes. As a former elementary school counselor and certified K–12 art teacher, I understand the school, social, and family pressures kids and teens face.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas with nearly 30 years of experience in the mental health field. I completed my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology (1995–1997) at Mississippi College, graduating with Special Distinction. My experience includes work within psychiatric hospitals, the prison system, and specialized Christian‐based care through my internship at Charter Hospital in North Jackson, Mississippi where I served within the Rapha division. After relocating to Texas in 2001, I transitioned into managed care, where I spent almost 25 years conducting clinical reviews with psychiatric and substance abuse facilities nationwide, supporting treatment teams, and maintaining direct patient contact.
I’m Elizabeth, a Filipina American Psychiatric‐Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and founder of Her Mind & Wellness. My practice is built on the belief that mental‐health care should feel human, culturally aware, and deeply supportive.
I believe healing happens when you feel seen, safe, and understood. My practice blends modern psychiatry with a nurturing, human approach — creating a space where you can breathe, reset, and rebuild your wellness with guidance that feels gentle, clear, and empowering.
If your internal world feels chaotic, fractured, or heavy, finding a place to land can feel impossible. Maybe you are carrying the weight of complex trauma, navigating a world not built for your neurodivergent brain, or feeling completely disconnected from your own body.
You might feel hesitant to trust a male therapist with your story—especially if your past includes relational trauma, spiritual abuse, or high-control environments. I completely understand. At Quiet Harbor Counseling, safety isn’t something I preach; it is something we build together through steady, respectful, and non-judgmental action.
As a lead therapist with clinical director responsibilities within intensive treatment settings, my days are spent managing complex clinical care. In my private practice, I bring that exact high-level expertise, administrative precision, and deep trauma training directly to you. I specialize in providing a dedicated, affirming refuge where you can feel entirely seen, heard, and empowered to live a self-reliant life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Laredo
Searching for LGBTQIA therapists in Laredo starts with finding identity-affirming care that matches your needs. An affirming therapist may support people navigating identity, family or relationship stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for therapists who list experience with LGBTQIA+ populations, affirmative therapy, gender-diverse clients, or training related to gender-affirming care. These details can help you find someone whose background fits the kind of support you want.
In a mid-size city like Laredo, the number of local LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists may vary by schedule, specialty, and appointment format. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in Texas. You may also want to compare appointment availability, therapeutic approach, therapist background, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Read each therapist’s bio before booking to see how they describe their style, the communities they support, and what sessions may look like.
Therapy in Laredo can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway makes it easier to find therapists who match your preferences and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage and review estimated costs before booking. You can browse profiles, review estimated costs after entering your insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
