Self Esteem Therapists in 77401

Hello, my name is Norma, and I am thrilled to be a part of your healing journey! As a clinical intern, I have had the privilege of working with individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, and self-esteem issues. I understand that each person's experience is unique, and I am committed to utilizing a variety of techniques to tailor our sessions specifically to your needs. Whether you are a child, adolescent, or adult, I am here to provide support and guidance every step of the way. As a bilingual therapist fluent in Spanish, I can ensure that language will never be a barrier in our communication.

Your child or tween is described by teachers, coaches, and other adults as a pleasure to work with, but at home, you know they're struggling. They put so much pressure on themselves to be perfect, despite your reassurances. You're constantly soothing their worries or anxiety and they might be crying or having trouble sleeping at night. They always seem to see the worst in themselves or have low self esteem and you know they’re capable of so much more. You’ve read the parenting books and blogs, listened to the podcasts, and nothing is working. It’s exhausting! As a play therapist and mom myself, I get it!

I tend to be a good fit for people recovering from or currently struggling with an emotionally abusive person, such as a Narcissist. We want to unbind ourselves from the resultant negative patterns, anxiety, shame, depression, confusion and/or limiting self talk. We may find ourselves attracted to partners, friends, and even careers where we feel unhappy, inauthentic, & exhausted. Perhaps we have becomel codependent, misuse substances, or neglect our health. Our goals are met with road blocks. Practicing boundaries, improving self-esteem, and working through our fears heals wounds, releases shame, and promotes mindful choices.

As a solution-focused psychologist with a diverse clinical background, I am able to tailor my work to fit the specific needs of each client. Many individuals will hit a rough patch their lives leaving them feeling overwhelmed, stuck, alone, uninspired, unfulfilled, or just out of ideas. Clients are particularly ready for psychotherapy when the problem begins to interfere with functional living and relationships.

I specialize in helping individuals that have survived adverse childhood experiences and/or who have experienced traumatic events throughout their lifetime. Often, individuals who have trauma may also experience fear, stress, low self-esteem, difficulty forming safe attachments, and emotional pain. I help resource individuals by providing a nonjudgmental and compassionate stance that helps clients make steps towards acceptance and change. Through the process of therapy, clients can expect to be resourced with therapeutic tools and mind-body applications that will help them gain greater self-esteem, security and confidence.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow. You might be initially hesitant to seek out help and support for personal matters, but when you do, you will feel confident that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you.`

My biggest goal in therapy is to help clients feel equipped to take on each day to their best ability. Whether that means learning and practicing coping skills, using EMDR to re-process past trauma and reduce triggers, growing your confidence and self-esteem, or just allowing space to better understand your thoughts and emotions, I will be with you every step of the way to support you through your therapeutic journey. I am a firm believer that therapy has the ability to truly improve your quality of life and relationships with those around you, and I hope that you will allow me to be a part of your process.

'And the day came when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom' (Anais Nin).

The insight, understanding and perspectives that can be gained through therapy can be invaluable to our sense of well being, personal autonomy, and fulfillment. Although I have a generalist clinical practice--meaning I work with men and women who come to treatment for a variety of reasons---I have a special interest in treatment issues related to depression, loss, grief, life cycle transitions, and women's mental health.
