Ricardo Garcia, LPC-Associate, LCDC-Intern, NCC

Specializing in Mood Disorders, Trauma Recovery, and Men’s Mental Health

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure? I'm here to help you explore these feelings, overcome challenges, and create lasting positive change. My expertise includes supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, and identity exploration. As a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate (LPC-A) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor-Intern (LCDC-I), supervised by Maribel Arias, LPC-S, I provide compassionate, evidence-based counseling tailored specifically to you.
With experience in clinical research at UT Austin’s Bipolar Disorder Center and hands-on counseling, I blend scientific insight with compassionate care. Using CBT, DBT, neurofeedback, and trauma-informed care, I also incorporate video game therapy, VR, music, and mindfulness to tailor therapy to your needs—combining traditional and innovative methods.
I know that reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to go through this alone. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, I’m here to support you in a way that feels right for you. Together, we can create a path toward healing, self-discovery, and resilience. When you’re ready, I’d love to connect.
