I'm Lina, and I'm passionate about empowering individuals on their journey to healing and growth. With a diverse background in hospital social work, outpatient mental health services, and inpatient psychiatric care, I have gained invaluable experience and insights that enable me to support a wide range of clients facing emotional and mental health challenges.

I strive to provide a space that welcomes vulnerability and growth. I will collaborate with you to increase self-awareness, communication, and understanding of both you and the world around you. My goal is to help you connect with all parts of yourself and find ways to navigate through life with ease. I have experience in working with LGBT+ populations and their families.

Hi. First, let me thank you for taking a moment to read my profile. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I am a family and marriage counselor licensed in Texas with over five years of experience working with individuals, couples and families helping them improve their lives and relationships. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems as well as life and career challenges. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I am a 30 year Army veteran and have been successful helping service members adjust to civilian life and reducing the impact of deployments to various war zones on their lives and relationships.

I try to make my counseling style warm and interactive; more like a conversation than a interrogation. I believe in treating people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, solution focused and narrative counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Life can be challenging and I want to help individuals build new skills and gain insight in helping overcome those challenges.
