I specialize in working with adults navigating trauma, chronic pain, and ADHD. These challenges can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. But you don’t have to go through it alone. I bring not only my professional expertise but also my own personal experience of healing. I know firsthand how intimidating and overwhelming the journey can be. That’s why I’m committed to walking alongside you as a compassionate guide offering tools, empathy, and a safe space for you to explore your past, present, and the future you want to create.
Life is a Journey. On this Journey we're faced with many twists & turns. My practice style is collaborative in nature. It focuses on joint commitment to change. Yet eclectic enough to incorporate different approaches that will help clients as they write and re-write their stories to transform their reality. Whether you are looking to address LGBTQ issues, individual therapy, family or couples therapy, intimate partner violence, sexual abuse, addictions, depression or other mental health issues.
You might not even be able to imagine happiness because you never learned how to dream. As a collaborative, strengths-based therapist, I can teach you to understand where that comes from, so you can grow into your identity(ies) and start dreaming of your future. This is called thriving.
Who am I? What do I want? And how do I move forward from here? These are the questions that bring many people to therapy—and the questions I’m passionate about exploring. I’m Ron Saenz, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Houston. My work is rooted in the belief that healing happens through both insight and embodied experience. I draw from neuroscience, somatic awareness, and the wisdom of practices like meditation, yoga, martial arts, and flow states to help clients reconnect with themselves in deeper, more meaningful ways.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in Pasadena, TX
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Pasadena starts with looking for identity-affirming care. An affirming therapist may support concerns related to identity, relationships, family stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for bios that mention affirmative therapy, experience with gender-diverse people, WPATH training, or LGBTQIA+-affirming care. Finding a therapist who fits your needs matters beyond credentials, and a detailed profile can help you understand how they approach care.
In a smaller city like Pasadena, the number of local LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still helping you find someone licensed in Texas. You may also want to compare appointment availability, therapy approach, therapist background, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading each therapist’s profile can help you see whether they clearly work with LGBTQIA+ people and how they describe their communication style.
Therapy in Pasadena can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer upfront cost estimates before you book. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
