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.

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Thanks for stopping to look at my page! I am a licensed psychologist who loves to work with clients who are working through life changes, who’ve experienced painful past experiences in family and relationships, issues related to identity, traumatic experiences, career and work issues, anxiety and depression, relationship experiences among monogamous, poly/ENM/CNM people, LGBTQIA+ clients. For both those who are new to therapy, and those who've had lots of experience, I try to build a supportive, respectful, and compassionate environment where we have the opportunity to explore solutions to problems as they uniquely impact your life.

Edna Brinkley
Psychologist, PhD, ART, CCATP
Women hire me to help them overcome overthinking. What this looks like is, together, we figure out which thoughts, behaviors, attitudes, and emotions about situations, people, even yourself, are stressing you out and then teach you easy-to-learn, very practical, personalized, evidence-based skills and strategies to deal with them. We'll work hard to get to the root of what's causing you distress.
Moreover, whether you call it anxiety, panic attacks, or nerves, we believe it could be rooted in not knowing how best to handle your sources and symptoms of stress.
To help us determine if we're a good fit for individual therapy, I offer a free 15-minute phone conversation.

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.

McAllen is the largest city in the Rio Grande Valley, a predominantly Spanish-speaking border region where the daily realities of life on the US-Mexico border—immigration, family separation, cross-border economic uncertainty, and the psychological stress of living in a highly scrutinized border community—shape the mental health landscape in ways that are unlike those of any other part of Texas. Spanish-language therapy is not merely preferred but essential in McAllen, and the demand for bilingual practitioners far outpaces supply in a region that is chronically underserved for mental health professionals per capita. The Rio Grande Valley ranks among the most underserved regions in the country for mental health care, and while health systems like DHR Health and South Texas Health System provide some behavioral health services, many residents go without needed support. Common therapy concerns include immigration-related anxiety and trauma, family separation stress, economic uncertainty, and the complex identity challenges of life in a bicultural, binational border community.
