¡Hola a todos! Me llamo Donna, Mexicana a hueso colorado y soy bilingüe en Inglés y Español. I am online only. I am licensed as an LMFT in Texas, Indiana, and Colorado. I'm EMDR therapy trained (treatment for trauma). I'm an LMFT and LPC-Associate (Supervised by Nanci Boice, M.Ed, M.A., LMFT-S, LPC-S). I am here to help you to the best of my ability and most of all, I'm open-minded about cultures, beliefs, sexual orientation, and walks of life. My office space is a judgment-free zone. I work with grief, anxiety, depression, intergenerational and religious trauma, losses, life transitions, and relationship issues.
I believe therapy is part of the human experience, no matter the language or culture. Clients will feel that they have addressed their issues when they feel empowered to move forward. Basically what I joke with my clients all the time is: "I'm always looking to get myself out of a job!" If my clients no longer need me, then we did some good work!
Coming from a bicultural background (American-born with first gen Mexican parents) and also having lived abroad in Japan, I feel that I am able to understand some of the common challenges that come with assimilation and acculturation from both domestic and foreign perspectives. Fun facts: my last name is Xu because my husband is Chinese-Canadian-American!
