Therapists in Texas

I provide space and guidance to address mental health concerns to support your quality of life. My name is Eliza and I have worked as a licensed therapist in mental health clinics, psychiatric hospitals, and private practice settings. Throughout the years, I have supported a diverse range of patients and clients in improving their mental health. I am experienced in treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, substance abuse, addiction, eating disorders, trauma, struggles with life transitions, self-esteem, and relationships. My current area of focus is addressing underlying or co-occurring trauma and ADHD.

Thank you for taking the time to invest in your mental health. I believe that one’s mental health is equally as important as physical health. With this belief, I decided to devote my time in achieving a doctorate degree in psychology from California School of Professional Psychology. I am a psychologist trained in clinical and forensic psychology. My training and experience have allowed me to develop clinical expertise in treatment modalities that are evidence based, such as CBT and ACT. I also have extensive training in the assessment of psychological concerns including diagnostic clarification and personality functioning.

**ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS** It's time. Time to LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE. Whether it's finding the courage to work through your anxiety and worries, a heartbreak or loss, confidently face opposition or productively express anger, or try to make sense of an injurious past, you are not alone. We'll identify and address what's preventing you from reaching your full potential, participating in and living your best life.

Do you find yourself constantly slipping into unhealthy patterns and behaviors or seeking healing for what is still an open wound? Have you tried to work things out on your own with little or no success? You don't have to figure it all out on your own.

I believe that seeking therapy is a sign of strength and courage. My goal is for my clients to meet themselves with curiosity and compassion just as I nurture with them in sessions. Our work together will involve opening unprocessed emotions from your past and bringing them into the safety of the present moment. By co-creating a safe space with you to explore past traumas and current challenges, I hope to help you unearth the blind spots that hinder you from being fully authentic and present in your life. Together, we'll uncover the root causes of your struggles to gain a new perspective of your internal and external world.

Feeling slightly off or disconnected? Feeling blocked and unable to move forward in life? Sometimes speaking to someone outside of your immediate circle of family and friends can help alleviate these and many other symptoms. Dr. Acuna is a licensed clinical psychologist who has helped many clients overcome various seemingly insurmountable challenges to help them move towards the life they envisioned for themselves. For many people challenges may come about in the midst of transition (graduation, career shift, relocation, grief) and support is much needed. Dr Acuna can help you maneuver through these changes.
