About Kamia
Kamia Esquerra is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on everyday problems that make life harder, such as relationship strain, parenting stress, and recovery after trauma. Kamia aims to meet people where they are and treat them with respect and sensitivity.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She listens first, then tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs. That may mean learning new ways to handle conflict, building skills to cope with upsetting memories, or finding clearer ways to talk with a partner or co-parent.
Kamia also helps people navigate big life transitions and the fallout from events like natural or human-caused disasters. She draws on methods that teach concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving daily routines. Sessions often focus on small, doable steps that lead to steadier days.
Expect a calm, supportive space to talk through what matters most. Kamia encourages honesty and collaboration so clients leave with practical tools, not just ideas. She aims to help people feel more capable of handling stress and change.
Her work covers adoption and foster care concerns, attachment and blended family issues, communication and commitment problems, and struggles with body image or eating. She also addresses family of origin dynamics, codependency, and recovery from domestic violence or separation.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist offers empathy and follows the client's lead to help them name goals and decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving tolerance for distress, and handling conflict more effectively.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Kamia will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and adapt methods over time. This collaborative process helps ensure the work stays useful and relevant as issues evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing shorter check-ins when useful. It can also support consistent weekly work on skills, regular follow-up after a crisis, or flexible scheduling when routines change. Ask about available formats when you schedule to see what fits your day-to-day needs.
