Sulema Childs, LPC — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Sulema!

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) dedicated to helping children, adolescents, and adults navigate life's challenges with compassion and evidence-based care. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward meaningful lasting change.

My focus

I work with children, teens, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Using CBT, DBT, SFBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, I provide compassionate, personalized support to help clients build resilience, confidence, and lasting coping skills.

My approach

I use evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), mindfulness-based interventions, and trauma-informed care to help clients develop practical coping skills, improve emotional regulation, strengthen relationships, and build resilience.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood. I use open communication, active listening, and encouragement to help clients feel comfortable sharing their experiences while working together toward their goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a provider was shaped by both my professional passion and personal experiences. Having a family history of mental health challenges sparked my interest in understanding the importance of mental wellness and the impact compassionate support can have. I became a counselor because I believe everyone deserves a safe space to heal

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals through a collaborative, strengths-based approach. Together, we identify meaningful goals, explore barriers, develop practical strategies, and build skills to create lasting change. I provide support, guidance, and evidence-based interventions to help clients increase self-awareness, and improve coping skills.
