Benjamin Conner Trauma To Peace Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S. Clinical Mental Health Counseling, LPC, EMDR, Veteran
The word trauma is often used only for the "Hollywood" version. Your brain responds with traumatic patterns of thought and behavior to many things it cannot understand and solve in the moment. If you think I am not good enough, I am not valued, I am a failure, it's not safe to feel, it's not safe to be me...all of those messages and more are a part of traumatic response. There are techniques that help reprocess those messages and lead to internal peace. "I am" is a powerful thought process that comes from post traumatic growth. That work is something we can do together.

Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Trauma can continue to shape how you feel, respond, and relate long after the original experience has passed. It may show up as hypervigilance, emotional numbing, reactivity, or a persistent sense of being on edge. Many women find themselves trying to function while their nervous system remains stuck in protective patterns. In our work together, we focus on understanding these responses, gently increasing your sense of safety and regulation, and building new ways of relating to yourself and others that are not defined by past experiences.

For many people, walking through a therapist's door for the first time can be intimidating. It doesn't have to be. My practice offers professional and confidential services in a safe, comfortable and home-like environment. We provide individual, family and couple therapy; children 3 years and older.

Brian Jones
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MEd, LMHC, LPC
I specifically focus on people with religious trauma. You might not have thought about your trauma as religious. But did you have a tough time growing up in a strict church environment? So did I. Maybe you didn't even realize the effect it had on you until much later in life.
I use Internal Family Systems therapy, which is an approach used specifically for trauma. However, it is not a PTSD approach. If you suffer from severe PTSD symptoms, I'm probably not the right fit for you. If you're not sure, schedule a free consultation. I can provide you with referrals to PTSD specialists if we decide that's appropriate.

Abbrielle Schenck
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-Associate
Trauma reshapes how the brain and body experience safety, connection, and meaning. My work focuses on helping clients feel grounded in the present while gently processing what the past still holds. I prioritize emotional safety, pacing, and nervous system regulation so healing does not feel retraumatizing. The goal is not to erase your story, but to help it hold less power over your life.

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.
