About Velma
Hi, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, in the state of Texas, with over 20 years of experience working as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, anger issues, and life changing events. I also helped many people who have experienced low self-esteem issues or abuse and trauma. I have counseled many children, families, couples, and individuals in a variety of settings. My counseling style is non-judgmental, warm, and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused, and Reality Therapy counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your specific needs. My focus in counseling is to meet you where you are with acceptance and non-judgement, and to use an approach that will work best for you as we work toward meeting your therapy goals. With my experience, I genuinely believe I can help families and adults heal their relationships and work through the struggles they face. It takes courage to take this step for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the next steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you through your journey. You can do it. My motto is “Believe It, Speak It, Achieve It! I look forward to working with you.
