Therapists in Greenspoint, Houston, TX

Hello, I am excited to help you out with your goals on your mental wellness journey! My masters degree was in clinical psychology with emphasis in neuropsychology. I have experience working with individuals from age 5 and up. I’ve worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings and my goal is to educate others on the importance of individual therapy. Regardless of where you are on your mental health journey, I will be there to listen and guide you.

Elizabeth Garibay, is a bilingual licensed professional counselor and licensed chemical dependency counselor in the state of Texas . Elizabeth has experience working with individuals diagnosed with depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, domestic violence, trauma, grief, and substance abuse disorders.

Hello, it's my aim to partner with you as you seek to reach your goals in improving and/or eliminating the current symptoms that led you to look for the services of a mental health professional. Additionally, I have researched the benefits of more holistic treatments including aromatherapy for mental health. This can be easily incorporated in the treatment process if you so desire.

Everyone at one point or another has had difficulty in their lives. Sometimes, we are aware of problems that are causing us distress, other times, we just can’t seem to figure out “what is wrong”. My aim as your potential counselor is to provide support, guidance, and provide a nonjudgmental space for you to seek clarity using a collaborative approach. I understand that seeking help can be frightening, but you are not alone on this journey. Many of us fear sharing our private pain, hurt feelings, or concerns stirring us emotionally. Anxiety is a normal part of talking to a therapist about your challenges.

There is no question that relationships can be hard, but they can be equally satisfying...if we get them right. Are you struggling to connect to your spouse? Are you feeling frustrated by your children's behaviors? Does your self-esteem get in the way of you living a full life? Do you sometimes feel like there is a battle going on within yourself? Guess what...you are not alone, and it would be my privilege to help you through these difficult times.

Therapy does not mean “Failure”. However, it is a manner to help clients overcome their problems safely, effectively, and became the better version of themselves. There are many reasons for people to seek out counseling — grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and relationships are among the most common; however, they do not know the best course of action to take. Sometimes you might need an unbiased viewpoint to put things into perspective. Allow me to help you embrace life adaptively.

It can be difficult to watch your child suffer. It is even more difficult to decide that you can't help and need to bring in an outsider. From the age of 11 on, children begin navigating more complex emotional lives. It can be difficult to deal with these big feelings when you don't have the vocabulary or tools to communicate what's going on. When your child speaks through behavior instead of words, you get things like bad grades, self harm, statements like "I hate myself" and "I'm a bad kid," drug use, sneaking out, and more.

My clinical experience in working with Veterans, Active-Duty Military Service members and their families, and the general adult population has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to ensure that your treatment is tailored to your specific needs. I will work with you to develop goals and treat target areas to improve your quality of life. I will provide you with treatment that will enhance your ability to cope with life’s challenges and hardships. I work with couples presenting with problems in communication, infidelity, a lack of mutual understanding to include adjustment to deployments, transitions, grief, and trust issues.

Every client's issue, needs, and goals will always be different depending on where they are in their journey of trauma and healing. I refuse to treat everyone the same within the scope of my practice. I find being authentic and unapologetic in my delivery tends to allow the client to revisit, readjust and release the things they have found to hold them stagnate in their healing. What I have also uncovered about a client is their "want" and "why" does not always coincide with each other. What they may want may not be why they want it. Realistically, the result is always to find what they lost some time ago.

“...Be transformed by the renewing of your mind...”- Romans 12:2. Whether you're a child, teen or an adult, the journey of life can sometimes create unwanted circumstances that cause elements of fear, stress, anxiety, sadness, grief, shame and even a sense of lost control. I am here to help! It is my passion and highest desire to assist those seeking to reclaim their greatest quality of life. I hold to the idea that counseling is most effective when it's customized/person-centered and designed to include all aspects of the human mind, body and spirit.
