Javier Melendez-Vega, LCSW(He/Him/His)

Javier Omar Meléndez-Vega is a licensed clinical social worker (TX & CA) and the founder of Eutierria Therapy, a decolonial healing modality rooted in Indigenous American Psychology. He serves adults who sense that their distress is not merely personal, but historical, ecological, and systemic. His practice is dedicated to those navigating "the wound of separation"—the colonial rupture that disconnects individuals from land, ancestors, and community. Javier’s clientele often includes socially conscious individuals, activists, and caregivers experiencing eco-anxiety, burnout, or a longing for healing that honors their whole self and their relationship with the living world.

Eutierria Therapy moves beyond individual symptom management toward "right relationship" with all life. By shifting from dominator models of control to kinship models of care, Javier integrates land-based clinical practices with nervous system regulation and ancestral wisdom. Clients engage in a transformative process that includes ritual, body-based knowing, and the reclamation of cultural narratives. His practice recognizes that individual and planetary healing are inseparable, offering a space where symptoms are reframed as adaptive responses to a fragmented world.

As a Borikua Taino practitioner working on Tāp Pīlam Coahuiltecan territory, Javier bridges formal clinical training with deep ancestral knowledge. He offers individual therapy, nature-based healing circles, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. While he provides secure telehealth sessions for residents across Texas and California, he also facilitates in-person, nature-based therapy sessions for those local to San Antonio, Texas. This localized, land-based work allows clients to experience healing as a literal reconnection to the earth and the collective.
