Get Whitt Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT- Associate
Our relationships with our bodies are shaped by culture, family, and the stories we’re told about worth. If you’re struggling with body image, I offer a space where we can gently explore those messages, challenge internalized shame, and begin to rewrite a narrative rooted in self-compassion. You deserve to feel at home in your body — and therapy can help you move toward that possibility.

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.
