About Laura Tellez

Laura Tellez is a bilingual therapist licensed in Texas who brings more than 12 years of clinical experience to her work. As an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - she combines practical skills with an empathetic, person-centered stance to support people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression.

Working in both English and Spanish, Laura adapts conversations and treatment plans to reflect each person’s background, values, and goals. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion, creating space for clients to explore issues such as attachment and abandonment, communication and commitment concerns, body image and caregiver stress, and the effects of infidelity or separation.

Laura draws on a range of therapeutic tools to help clients build motivation, strengthen confidence, and address patterns that interfere with fulfilling relationships and daily functioning. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process, tailoring interventions to the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. Taking the first step toward greater well-being often requires courage, and Laura offers steady support throughout that process.
