Cultural Identities

About Dr. Irene Escobar-Galvez, Licensed Psychologist

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or the stress of daily life? Do you find yourself carrying the weight of cultural expectations, feeling torn between two worlds, or struggling to balance your own needs with the responsibilities placed upon you? As a dedicated therapist specializing in the mental health of adult Latinxs, I offer a supportive, compassionate, and culturally affirming space to help you navigate these challenges.

As Latinxs, we often grow up with strong family values, deep cultural roots, and an unspoken expectation to persevere, no matter the struggles we face. While these strengths shape who we are, they can also bring challenges—feeling pressure to succeed, difficulty setting boundaries, or experiencing guilt when prioritizing our own well-being. Whether you’re a first-generation college student, a working professional, or someone trying to process the complexities of your identity, you deserve a therapeutic space where your experiences are fully understood.

Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why our sessions will be tailored to your unique experiences and personal goals. Together, we will:

✅ Explore and honor your cultural identity – Understanding how your cultural background influences your mental health can provide clarity and self-acceptance.
✅ Build emotional resilience – Learn tools to manage stress, set boundaries, and cope with life’s challenges in a healthy way.
✅ Develop practical coping strategies – From mindfulness techniques to reframing negative thoughts, we’ll work on strategies that fit your lifestyle.
✅ Work through anxiety and depression – Whether your struggles stem from internal pressures or external expectations, we’ll address them with compassion and evidence-based techniques.
✅ Create a path toward self-discovery and empowerment – You deserve to feel confident in who you are and how you show up in the world.

Reaching out for therapy is a courageous step, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt, family dynamics, career stress, or simply feeling emotionally drained, therapy can provide the support you need to move forward with confidence. My goal is to help you transform challenges into opportunities for growth, healing, and self-empowerment.

If you’re ready to invest in your well-being and take control of your mental health, I invite you to reach out. Let’s work together to create a life where you feel seen, valued, and at peace.

I am in-network for Aetna and Quest Behavioral Health and can provide a superbill for out-of-network clients to help with reimbursement. I am currently accepting new clients in Texas for telehealth therapy sessions.
