Kamia Esquerra, LPC

Kamia Esquerra is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and helping people cope with life changes. She aims to meet people where they are and treat them with respect and sensitivity.

Her approach starts with listening and adapting the conversation to each person's needs. She works collaboratively to build a plan that fits daily life and personal goals. That plan can include practical skills for communication, stress management, and navigating family transitions.

Kamia also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care concerns, attachment questions, blended family dynamics, and family of origin issues. She addresses specific topics such as codependency, commitment and communication problems, and recovering from domestic violence.

Therapy may cover eating and body image issues, feelings of emptiness, and coping after natural or human-caused disasters. Kamia uses evidence-informed methods like client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior approaches, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies to shape sessions.

She encourages small, practical steps that fit a person's rhythm and resources. The emphasis is on clear conversation, skills you can try between sessions, and adjusting the work as needs evolve.

Approaches used in online care and what they do

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the therapist follows your lead to better understand your goals and challenges. It helps when someone wants a steady, listening presence that adapts to their needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches skills to change patterns that cause distress. It is often used for relationship problems, anxiety, and coping with life transitions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, provides concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication. People who struggle with strong emotions or repetitive conflicts may find these tools useful.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try approaches together and adjust over time in a collaborative way.

For practical matters, confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about scheduling details and which session types are offered when you complete the match questionnaire.
