Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Mcallen, TX

Hi, I'm Emily. I’m a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor. I specialize in working with individuals navigating anxiety, anger management, PTSD, and alcohol or substance use. Many of the people I work with are looking not just for relief, but for a deeper understanding of themselves and why they feel the way they do, and how to create lasting change. Whether you’re facing daily stressors, working through past experiences, or trying to regain a sense of control, therapy can be a space to slow down, process, and begin moving forward.

My hometown is San Antonio, Texas, where I earned my undergraduate degree from Our Lady of the Lake University and my graduate degree from Texas A&M University. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, including schools, community agencies, hospitals, and emergency shelters, supporting people from various backgrounds and life experiences.

Much of my work has been with individuals navigating trauma and substance use, and I understand how heavy and isolating those experiences can feel.

Outside of my work, I enjoy reading, movies and spending time with my family and our dog. I also understand how complex life can be—balancing responsibilities, relationships, and expectations—and I bring that understanding into the space we share.

If you’re thinking about starting therapy, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in that process.

I work with clients presenting with a variety of concerns, but work primarily with family history and attachment patterns showing up in the present. Many of my clients come in for current stressors, and find they also need help with developmental trauma.

Clients are welcome to book the first available consultation time on my calendar. Often my first available is far in the future, so I reach out to clients once booking is complete to offer my current availability.

I am passionate about helping people feel seen, heard, and supported as they navigate life's challenges and discover their inner strengths. My approach is to create an authentic and individual relationship with my clients so they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and hopes without judgment.
