Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR-BC®, REAT
Reaching out for support often means something in your life feels too heavy to carry alone. You don’t have to navigate it by yourself. I offer a space that moves at your pace—without pressure or expectations—where you can begin to make sense of what you’re carrying.
I work with individuals navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Together, we gently explore patterns shaped by past experiences and how they continue to show up in your thoughts, relationships, and sense of self. This work isn’t about forcing change—it’s about creating space for clarity, self-understanding, and a deeper sense of trust in yourself.
My approach integrates talk therapy with expressive arts therapy, grounded in specialized training in art therapy and intermodal expressive work. This means we actively use modalities such as visual journaling, storytelling, movement, and other forms of creative expression as part of the therapeutic process—not just talking about your experiences, but engaging with them in ways that support deeper understanding and change.
Clients often describe me as steady, down-to-earth, and genuine. I value creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and able to show up as you are.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like your brain is running ten tabs at once (and none of them are loading), you're in the right place. I'm Dr. Megan Marks, a licensed psychologist and owner of The Momentum Practice, where I help high-achieving adults, neurodivergent folks, and anyone navigating life transitions find clarity, confidence, and a little more calm. With over 15 years of experience and a knack for making complex challenges feel manageable, I offer a space where insight, growth, and the occasional well-timed laugh go hand in hand. If you’re tired of second-guessing yourself, losing sleep over “what ifs,” or just need someone who gets how hard it is to juggle everything, I’m here—and yes, I do speak fluent overthinking! Reaching out can feel like a big leap, but it might just be the momentum you need. Whether you're navigating burnout, big transitions, or the beautiful chaos of being human—I'm here to help. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

El Paso's location directly on the US-Mexico border defines its mental health landscape, with a predominantly Hispanic population spanning both sides and bilingual Spanish-English therapists at the center of the city's therapy community. Fort Bliss — one of the largest Army installations in the country — creates strong demand for therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, and the challenges faced by active-duty families. The 2019 mass shooting at a Walmart in El Paso had a profound impact on the city's collective mental health, and therapists specializing in community trauma and grief have played an ongoing role in recovery. Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso and University Medical Center of El Paso provide institutional mental health resources for the broader Borderland region.
