Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
If you're autistic or exploring whether you might be, you may have spent a lot of your life feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or pressured to fit into environments that weren’t made for you. Whether you’ve been formally diagnosed or you’re just starting to connect the dots, I offer a space where you don’t have to mask or explain yourself.
I work with adults on the spectrum to better understand their needs, manage sensory and emotional overload, and navigate relationships in a way that feels authentic. We can also look at how past experiences—especially those shaped by being different in a world that expects sameness—may still be affecting your self-esteem or mental health.
You don’t need to change who you are. Therapy is about supporting you in building a life that actually works for your brain, your body, and your values.

Rebekah Ruth Jones, Ed.D., LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D., LPC
A later in life autism diagnosis often comes with wave after wave of realization of what was missed and why things are the way they are. I can help you learn to surf those waves instead of getting bludgeoned against the rocks by them.

Brownsville is one of the southernmost cities in the United States and sits directly on the US-Mexico border — sharing the border with Matamoros, Tamaulipas — with a population that is over 90% Hispanic and where Spanish is the dominant language of daily life, making bilingual, bicultural therapy not a specialty but the baseline expectation for meaningful access to care. The city's poverty rate is among the highest in the United States, and therapists here frequently address the compounding effects of economic stress, immigration-related family separation, and the chronic anxiety of border community life. Valley Baptist Medical Center and the UT Health RGV system provide institutional mental health resources for the Rio Grande Valley region. The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley's psychology and counseling programs supply clinical training to a region that remains significantly underserved relative to its mental health needs.
