Ana is originally from the capital of Ecuador, in South America. She and her family moved to the Dallas Metroplex area in 1999. They feel this is home now. Ana greatly enjoys spending time with her family and friends.
In her free time, Ana loves teaching God’s Word and serving at her church. She also likes road trips, traveling and karaoke parties; as well as simple pleasures, such as: reading a book, going for a walk or watching a good comedy.
Ana has always been passionate about helping others, brain physiology, cultural diversity and human behavior. She started her career studying Psychology, back in her country; then decided to get her Masters Degree in Family’ Counseling, here in the USA. And eventually got licensed by the state of Texas.
Ana worked as a Case Manager for almost 9 years, helping victims of domestic abuse. She has been providing therapy for about 6 years to a variety of clients like immigrants, refugees, veterans and others.
Ana is fascinated by the potential our brains have for healing. She knows we had been wonderfully made, with the capacity to heal and grow stronger, even despite of adversity. Our internal strenghts can be used or developed, as we walk our healing pathway and grow on resiliency.
Some of Ana’s specialties are: trauma, abuse, grief and loss, stress, depression, mid life crisis, life transitions, and spiritual issues. Ana is fully trained in EMDR.
Ana learned, through difficult times in her life, that when we feel weak and at the end of our rope, God is strong (2 Cor. 12:9). He will never leave us, nor forsake us (Deut. 31:6), and “nothing is impossible with God” (Lk. 1:37). Ana strongly believes that only with God, there can be complete healing. Only He can heal the deepest wounds of our soul. “Only He can mend our souls and help us change our lives.” (Ana L. Nicolalde, 4/2013)
Ana would like the opportunity to walk along side you on this healing journey, so you can rediscover yourself and improve the quality of your life.
Ana’s Greatest Life Lesson: Ana believes that everything has a reason and a purpose in life. As physical pain indicates a wound that needs care and healing, emotional pain could be a catalyst not just for healing, but also for growth. We, therefore, should not be afraid to face pain, but to embrace the challenge; knowing that growth, beyond what we could even ask or imagine, is possible.
Ana is fluent in English and Spanish. She also learned some conversational Portuguese; but hasn’t been able to practice it.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas. I adhere to the Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice of the American Association for Christian Counselors and the Texas Board of Examiners for Licensed Professional Counselors. These principles are available for your review at any time. I am experienced working with cross cultural issues, life transitions, abuse and complex trauma. My theoretical approach is eclectic and client centered. I use the techniques best suited to my clients’ needs.
My approach to counseling is based on Biblical principles integrated with psychological concepts. As such, I will use principles taught in the Bible as a model to evaluate and address the issues and concerns you bring to the counseling session as well as using proven psychological theories in the therapeutic relationship. I will help you explore and define the areas of concern to focus on. Then we will actively work together to resolve them. We will use a variety of techniques and strategies to address your concerns and help you reach your goals.
All of our therapists are trained and equipped to help you through issues related to anxiety, depression, and stress using a variety of techniques and tools designed specifically for you.
This is a therapeutic technique that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences (trauma).
We are happy to offer testing and therapeutic services using a variety of holistic approaches. These approaches can be used as either supplemental services to traditional therapy or sometimes in place of them.
Both Play Therapy and Art Therapy can be used to help clients interpret, express, and resolve their emotions and thoughts. Although Play Therapy is often used for children, Art Therapy can be used with a wide age range.
