Kamia Esquerra, LPC

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

Her approach starts with listening. She tailors conversations and a treatment plan to each person’s needs. Sessions are straightforward and practical, with clear goals and small steps to try between meetings.

Kamia draws from a mix of strategies that include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior tools, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques. That means she helps people notice patterns, try new behaviors, and build tools for managing strong emotions.

She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care concerns, attachment questions, blended family issues, body image, codependency, communication struggles, and the fallout from separation or domestic violence. Kamia helps unpack family of origin issues and the ways early relationships still shape daily life.

Kamia describes therapy as a collaborative process. She offers a calm space to talk through painful events and to practice healthier responses. The work aims to increase skills, reduce overwhelm, and make daily life feel more manageable.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person without judgement. It helps people feel heard while they work through relationship strain, parenting concerns, and emotional pain.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It helps people change unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. It is useful when strong feelings and recurring patterns make relationships or parenting harder.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what seems most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote sessions help them build skills and apply changes directly into daily life.
