Professional statement

Araceli is trained in both Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) and Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET), evidence-based approaches that help people better understand and work with chronic conditions such as chronic (unexplained) pain, anxiety, migraines, dizziness/vertigo, IBS, tinnitus, fatigue, brain fog and other stress-related symptoms.

These therapies help patients relate to symptoms in a new way—by reducing fear, strengthening the mind-body connection, processing difficult emotions, and helping the brain “unlearn” the patterns that keep symptoms stuck. Araceli’s work focuses on supporting individuals living with chronic conditions to feel safer in their bodies, more emotionally connected, and more empowered in their healing.

Araceli is a licensed mental health provider offering services in Texas. She is trained with a trauma-informed approach, and utilizes experiential and somatic techniques focusing on improving mind and body wellness. She works with individuals in Telehealth, in-office, and outdoor settings addressing life changes, challenges, and traumas.

She is also trained in Outdoor Behavioral Healthcare, offering the outdoors to those who enjoy being outside or are open to trying something new. She believes in the therapeutic benefits of connecting with nature through Walk & Talk Therapy or open-air discussions, using and appreciating the natural elements. Since beginning her work in experiential techniques and outdoor/adventure therapy, Araceli has presented at multiple conference-- local, nationally, and internationally. She carries a master’s degree in clinical mental health. Her work history includes working with with women, parents, children and families; and psychiatric evaluations.


Message to clients

If you’re facing an overwhelming period in your life or just feel stuck, I’m here to support you in reconnecting with what you value most.

I am passionate in helping people unlearn chronic symptoms that hold them back. I can work with you to help you learn how to rewire your brain to a sense of safety. Many times we lose ourselves in our debilitating symptoms; we forget what we once were and what we are capable of. I want to help you get back to time when you felt like yourself; to feel 'normal' again; to educate and empower you to develop strategies to move forward in a positive way . We can work together in a way that feels safe and comfortable for you. My approach is flexible and tailored to your unique needs, ensuring that our work together is both meaningful and effective.
