With nine years of dedicated experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I bring a wealth of expertise in supporting individuals through their journeys of healing and personal growth. Specializing in anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief, I have had the privilege of working with diverse populations, including children, adolescents, and adults. My professional approach is rooted in creating a compassionate and empowering therapeutic space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported. Through evidence-based interventions and a client-centered perspective, I am committed to helping individuals navigate the complexities of their emotional well-being, fostering resilience, and facilitating positive transformation.

I believe that every person’s life could be a novel. Everyone is born with a set of unique experiences, gifting and personality. Therapy should utilize and capitalize on these unique qualities of each individual. Everyone experiences their own unique set of challenges and triumphs in life. However, sometimes circumstances are more than someone can deal with alone. Friends certainly do help, but certain things should be handled with a caring professional who will work to understand each person’s situation. A good therapist will help to uncover, provide feedback, and talk with each individual about solutions to life’s challenges. It is important to have a counselor who will listen emphatically and provide therapeutic guidance in a way that each person is empowered to be the best version of themselves. I am Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas and a Navy Veteran. I have a bachelor’s degree in Christian Studies from California Baptist University in Riverside, California. I completed my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Counseling from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas in 2012. I have been a practicing clinician since 2014. I have worked in a variety of clinical settings such as inpatient as well as a partial hospitalization program, intensive outpatient programs, a residential treatment center, and private practice. These experiences have helped me develop a unique approach to counseling in which each client is viewed as an individual. I currently provide therapy to adults and families. I have experience treating individuals with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, addiction, grief, trauma, and adjustment issues. I am an active directive therapist meaning that I believe in giving feedback, direction and homework assignments. I utilize a variety of treatment methods such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential, Gestalt, Solution Focused, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Career Counseling. *Will fill out short-term disability claims for client's, if deemed necessary.*

Hi, my name is Maria Laura Cuenca. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I love to read and watch foreign series on all streaming services. I like learning new things and meeting new people. I also like working with everyday people. People that have unfortunately encountered obstacles in their lives and want to overcome them. I have experience working with diverse populations. I have worked with people that have experienced grief and loss, whether it be due to a death of a loved one, the loss of relationship, or ever-changing dreams. I also have experience working with clients that encounter problems establishing boundaries to protect their mental health. I promote the importance of loving ourselves. As a social worker, I understand the importance of the environment and how it can affect our overall health. We live in a stressful world; however, you do not have to cope alone. Negative emotions can affect every part of daily lives from our physical health to our emotional health. I provide a safe place free of judgement and a place where you feel free to share your lived experiences.

Welcome my name is Kareem Hicks, and I commend anyone who desires to grow. Often, our environments & comfort zones may stagnate or stunt our growth. Whether it is a traumatic experience or merely trying to maneuver through daily life challenges, I will help you develop your resiliency. I will aid you in processes that will get you through the present and prepare you for the future. We will discover & develop protective factors by understanding the whole of you: body, soul, & mind. By taking a holistic approach to growth, I will assist you in the discovery of lifestyle changes & new ways of thinking that will maximize your potential.

I see counseling as a gentle collaboration that moves individuals toward their most energetic and purposeful selves. I have worked with adolescents and adults of all ages to find and address the negative self-focused beliefs, dysregulated emotions, and behavioral patterns which can disrupt the mind/body connection and block this journey of discovery. I work with individuals and families to help them develop deeper connections to themselves, and stronger more fulfilling relationships with others, resulting in increased vitality, liveliness and joy.

Being a native Houstonian, I have a deep love and dedication to the Houston community.
