Hi, I'm Joanna Martinez Gutierrez, LMSW — a bilingual Latina therapist passionate about walking alongside people in their journey toward healing and growth. I believe in meeting people where they are, honoring their story, and focusing on progress, not perfection. I specialize in working with children, teens, and young adults (ages 4–30) navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and behavioral challenges.
My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices, blending psychoanalytic and humanistic perspectives to help clients understand how their past shapes their present.I also incorporate mindfulness, CBT, DBT, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to build coping skills and resilience.
I understand how important it is to feel seen and heard, especially when navigating cultural expectations and family dynamics. If you’d like, I can also offer Christian or faith-based support to integrate mental health with spiritual values. Wherever you are in your journey, I’m here to meet you with compassion, understanding, and hope.
Call or Joanna Martinez Gutierrez now for a free 15 minute consultation - (830) 445-7650
