About Kamia

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 coping with life changes. Kamia aims to meet people where they are and offers steady support as they work toward change.

Kamia approaches conversations with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She listens to each person’s story and shapes sessions around their needs. This means practical talk about what feels stuck and small steps that can fit into daily life.

Her work often addresses adoption and foster care questions, attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, and family of origin issues. Kamia also helps people facing separation or divorce, domestic violence aftermath, and codependency patterns. She supports those coping with eating and body-image struggles, feelings of emptiness, or stress from natural and human-caused disasters.

In sessions she draws from client-centered ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies. That mix allows her to tailor interventions to what a person needs in the moment and over time. Expect straightforward skills practice alongside reflective conversation.

Kamia wants clients to feel empowered to try new ways of responding, communicating, and managing intense emotions. She works collaboratively to set goals and adjust the plan as progress unfolds. To begin, people complete an initial matching step and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's experience. The therapist offers acceptance and reflection so people can make choices that feel right for them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical strategies for changing unhelpful patterns. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, includes tools for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal skills.

Deciding which approach fits best is a shared process. Kamia will work with each person to consider goals, preferences, and what feels most useful in early sessions. Plans can change over time as needs shift, and skills from different approaches are often combined.

Because session formats were not specified in the therapist biography, confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce commuting, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use different tools such as brief skills practice or thought-record exercises between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and DBT exercises to an online setting and keep conversations focused on real-life changes that matter to the client.
