Meet Yvette Garcia, Therapist in Keller, TX
Yvette Garcia, LPC-Associate
Supervised by Glenna Massey, MFT, LPC-S
Hi, I'm Yvette Garcia. I work with children, teens, adults, and parents as they navigate the challenges that come with different stages of life.
I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest about what you're experiencing, feel heard and understood, and have space to work through what brought you in.
My Approach
In therapy, we'll look at what's been weighing on you, the experiences that have shaped you, and patterns that may be getting in the way. We'll also work on practical tools you can use outside of therapy.
My approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS-informed therapy), Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), Family Systems Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Gottman Method principles when working with couples.
Why I Do This Work
I’m a mom, wife, sister, friend, and business owner, and I know what it's like to juggle multiple roles and responsibilities.
Parenting and major life transitions can bring a lot of pressure, especially when you tend to hold yourself to high standards. You may find yourself trying to keep everything together while wondering why things feel harder than you expected.
Postpartum is one of those experiences that isn't always talked about openly. You may find yourself wondering, “Why didn’t anyone prepare me for this?”
As a mom of two, I’m continuing to learn and grow in my own journey of parenthood. That experience has deepened my understanding of the changes that can come with pregnancy, postpartum, parenting, and family life, and I bring that understanding with me into my work with clients.
