Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Nobody gives you a manual. And even if they did, it wouldn't cover your kid — the one who doesn't respond the way the books say they should, who pushes every boundary, who you love fiercely and still don't always know how to reach.
Parenting is one of the most meaningful and most depleting things a person can do. I work with parents who are struggling — not because they're doing it wrong, but because it's genuinely hard and they're doing it without enough support.
I have particular experience working with parents of neurodiverse children — kids with ADHD, autism, or both — because I've lived that road myself. I understand the advocacy fatigue, the grief that can come alongside a diagnosis, the way it affects your marriage, your other kids, and your sense of yourself as a parent. You deserve a space to process all of that, not just strategies.
I also work with parents navigating the turbulence of the teen years, co-parenting challenges, blended family dynamics, and the general burnout that comes from giving everything you have and running on empty. Sessions may focus entirely on you as a parent, or run alongside your child's own therapy — whatever best supports your family.
Good parents ask for help. I'd be glad to be part of yours.

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.
