Therapy for Young Adults and Women in Corpus Christi and across Texas Navigating Anxiety, Stress, and Self-Esteem
I help young adults and women who feel anxious, uncertain, or weighed down by self-doubt create space to slow down, reflect, and feel more confident in their choices. Together, we’ll cut through the noise of others’ expectations, set goals that genuinely align with you, and build a plan that feels manageable. So you can move forward with more clarity, self-trust, and a sense of direction.
Feel More Confident. Less Overwhelmed. More Like Yourself Again.
No Pressure. No Commitment. Just a conversation to see if this feels like the right fit.
What Therapy Can Help You Achieve
-
Find Your Direction
Life doesn’t always move in a straight line, and it’s easy to feel unsure about your next step. Therapy gives you space to slow down, reflect, and make decisions that feel true to who you are, not just what’s expected of you.
-
Feel More Grounded
When life feels overwhelming or uncertain, therapy helps you quiet the noise and reconnect with yourself. Together, we’ll build tools to manage anxiety, ease self-doubt, and feel more present in your day-to-day life.
-
Build Lasting Confidence
You’ll learn to recognize your strengths, challenge unhelpful patterns, and trust your own voice. Over time, you’ll move through life with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
Life can feel like an invisible checklist — career milestones, relationships, and major life decisions all expected by a certain age. When your path doesn’t match that timeline, comparison can be exhausting, leaving you anxious, second-guessing yourself, or feeling behind.
At Own Your Story Counseling PLLC, we help women and young adults navigate anxiety, stress, and self-doubt tied to these pressures. Together, we clarify what truly matters to you and build tools to help you move forward at your pace, on your terms.
You might be in the right place if you:
Feel anxious or on edge more often than you’d like
Overthink decisions and doubt yourself afterward
Look like you’re “doing fine,” but feel overwhelmed inside
Are navigating a transition and don’t feel grounded or confident
Want support without being told to “just think positive”
You don’t need to hit a breaking point to ask for help. There’s no single right timeline — therapy can help you feel steadier, clearer, and more confident about where you’re headed.
The Pressure to Keep Up Can Be Exhausting
I know what it’s like to constantly second-guess yourself while smiling through the overwhelm. On the outside, you’re the reliable one. Capable, strong, the one who always shows up and no one worries about. Inside, you’re anxious, exhausted, and wondering when it’s your turn to feel okay.
If you’re here, you’re probably tired of pretending everything’s fine when it’s not. You might feel stuck, burned out, or unsure of who you are underneath all the expectations. You don’t have to keep pushing through alone.
As a therapist, I offer a space where you can be honest, exhale, and feel supported—without judgment or pressure to perform. Together, we’ll untangle what’s weighing you down and help you reconnect with your voice, your needs, and your sense of self.

Anxiety can look like overthinking, people-pleasing, and feeling stuck in your own head—even when everything looks fine on the outside.

You don’t need to have all the answers to begin moving toward the life you want.

You’ll learn tools to navigate life with greater clarity and self-assurance.

Clinical Supervision for LMSWs
As a clinical supervisor, I offer a supportive, real-world approach to help LMSWs grow into confident, ethical, and grounded clinicians. We’ll focus on deepening clinical skills, finding your voice as a therapist, and navigating the emotional weight of this work. Supervision is a place to show up fully and grow with support. Together, we’ll build the skills and confidence you need to thrive in the field long-term.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to get started.
This is a space to slow down, sort through the overwhelm and reconnect with yourself, without the pressure to be perfect. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like you’re constantly second-guessing yourself, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep pushing through it by yourself.
Maybe you’ve been trying to hold it all together, keep up with expectations, or figure out who you are in the middle of so many changes. In our sessions, we’ll get honest about what’s been weighing on you, explore the patterns that keep showing up (like people-pleasing, burnout, or overthinking), and build practical tools to help you feel more grounded, confident, and in control.
Whether you're navigating a big life shift, questioning your next steps, or just trying to feel more like yourself again, I’m here to support you through it.
