Private practice website for Felicia De La Garza Mercer, Ph.D., PLLC
With over eighteen years of experience providing individual and couples counseling, I specialize in helping young professionals and grad students with academic and workplace adjustment, anxiety, burnout and stress management, multicultural stressors, and relationship and sexual issues. With couples, I have expertise in helping partners improve communication and conflict skills and manage sexual concerns.
Using a culturally-responsive and sex-positive framework, I integrate evidence-based treatments and tailor them to address your specific needs and personality. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) , mindfulness and relational/interpersonal interventions are the primary approaches I use in individual and sex therapy. These approaches allow me to quickly help you pinpoint stumbling blocks and create healthier thoughts and behaviors that stick.
