More about Ana

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Hello! My name is Ana Tamez and I am a Licensed Professional Therapist in Texas. I graduated with my Masters in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling at UTRGV. I have six years in the mental health field where I have had the privilege of working with people and their families of all ages from working in youth & family services to an unaccompanied minor shelter, and more recently, to a behavioral hospital. My treatment approach depends on the needs of who I am working with however, I primarily focus on CBT in order to help you better help yourself in the most positive way possible.

On my spare time I enjoy reading, working out, and spending time relaxing with my four year old dog. I love to learn and help others as much as I can, I look forward to growing with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
