Accepting Clients

Hi I'm Valerie! I want you to come into our therapy sessions feeling valid, safe and no judgement. Lets get started!

Licensed Professional Counselor in Houston, TX

About My Clients

Life can be hard and sometimes have some twists and turns that weren't planned. Maybe you just found out that having a child the way you envision is not going to happen. Or maybe you feel alone & sad with this new baby in your home, almost like you don't know who you are anymore. I understand that taking the first step to come to a therapy session can be nerve wracking and uncomfortable since you don't know me yet, but I hope that in time you can feel that this is a safe space for you to open up

My Background and Approach

I can help you as you navigate all of the emotions that come with life changes, anxiety and much more. I tend to gear towards a client centered approach and believe my clients are in the driver seat. I incorporate other interventions as well that are drawn from solution focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and family systems approach. I know everyone is different and things that might work for one person does not necessarily work for another person. I want to find what works best for you.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am accepting of all people from all backgrounds, sexual orientations and beliefs. I believe everyone deserves a safe environment to develop in as a person and to explore anything they want to in their life.
