Aubrey Richardson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I work with high achieving women, caregivers, and helping professionals who are used to being the one who holds everything together. They anticipate needs, take responsibility for other people’s emotions, and say yes when they mean no. They push through when they are depleted and keep going long after their capacity is gone.
For a long time, this worked. It earned success, stability, and connection. Until it didn’t.
Most clients come to me when burnout has turned into resentment. When relationships feel one sided. When the emotional load becomes impossible to ignore.
This is not an individual failure. These patterns are often shaped by early roles, expectations, and environments that rewarded overfunctioning and self sacrifice.
In our work together, we focus on identifying these patterns, understanding what is actually yours to carry, and building the capacity to do less without collapsing into guilt or anxiety.
This is not about becoming a different person.
It is about creating a life that feels sustainable, reciprocal, and aligned.
If you are waiting until things calm down or get worse before reaching out, that waiting is part of the pattern.
You do not have to keep doing this.

Vada Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
At Vada Counseling, all of our therapists are queer and/or trans, and we bring that lived experience into every session. We understand the realities you’re navigating, and you won't have to explain, defend, or translate your identity or experiences. Our work is grounded in liberation, cultural humility, and care that rejects pathologizing frameworks.
We focus on collaborative, transparent therapy where consent, autonomy, and shared power lead the way. Clients come to us when they want support that recognizes trauma, identity, and systemic harm without losing sight of individual strengths and self-determination. If you’re looking for care rooted in decolonizing and anti-carceral values, Vada Counseling offers a space where you can simply be, and be understood.

Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Hi, I'm Shawna. I'm really glad you're here — and I know that finding the right therapist can feel like a lot. My hope is that by the time you finish reading this, you'll have a sense of who I am and whether we might be a good fit.
I work with adults who are carrying things that feel heavy — whether that's the weight of past trauma, the complexity of relationships that keep hitting the same walls, or the experience of moving through a world that wasn't quite designed for the way your brain works. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, relationship challenges, and supporting adults with ADHD and autism who are often figuring out a lot about themselves for the first time.
A lot of my clients come to me feeling like something is wrong with them. My job — and honestly, my passion — is helping people see that they've been responding to hard things in the most human ways possible. Healing isn't about fixing yourself. It's about understanding yourself.
My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I'm not going to sit silently and nod — I show up as a real person in the room with you. Therapy with me tends to feel like an honest, sometimes even humorous conversation, grounded in real tools and genuine care.
If any of this resonates, I'd love to hear from you. Reaching out is the hardest part — and you've already started.

Heather Curry
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
My work is especially helpful for people who have already done therapy and can explain their patterns — but still feel stuck inside them. Many of my clients are thoughtful, self-aware, and capable in their daily lives, yet their nervous system stays on alert. They manage, analyze, and hold things together for everyone else, but it’s exhausting.
I focus on helping change happen at the level reactions actually live, not just at the level of insight. Alongside EMDR, I use attachment-based and parts-oriented work so we can understand the protective strategies your mind developed and help your body learn that it no longer has to stay braced. Therapy with me is collaborative and steady; we move at a pace your system can tolerate rather than forcing breakthroughs.
Clients often tell me the difference they notice is that they don’t just understand themselves more — they feel less on edge in everyday situations. The goal isn’t to become a different person. It’s to stop having to manage yourself all the time.

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.
