Healing Old Wounds to Create More Intentional and Connected Relationships.
Trauma-informed therapy for adults and couples healing childhood emotional neglect, attachment wounds, and unhealthy relationship patterns.
Virtual Throughout Texas and Florida
If you’re here, something in your life may feel heavy or exhausting right now.
The ways we learned to connect early in life, whether healthy or unhealthy, often become the ways we navigate relationships as adults. If you grew up feeling responsible for everyone else's emotions or unsure whether your feelings mattered, those experiences may still be shaping your relationships and self-worth today.
Whether you're seeking individual therapy to heal from childhood emotional neglect and complex trauma or couples therapy to strengthen your relationship, you deserve a space where your experiences are understood with curiosity, compassion, and care.
Who I Help…
Many of the clients I work with grew up feeling like they were either “too much” or “not enough”, often struggling to feel understood, accepted, or emotionally supported within their families. As adults, they come to therapy feeling like something is wrong with them, carrying deep self-doubt, shame, anger, resentment, or recurring conflict in their relationships.
I also work with couples who struggle with these very patterns in their relationships, feeling stuck in endless loops of arguments making it difficult to resolve conflict.
-
You may have learned that keeping the peace, taking care of others, or avoiding conflict was necessary to stay connected to others. Over time, this can make it difficult to recognize your own needs or set healthy boundaries.
-
Family and cultural expectations can make it difficult to prioritize yourself without feeling selfish or disloyal. Therapy can help you navigate these relationships while staying connected to your values.
-
Even when you know a relationship isn't healthy, it can feel difficult to break familiar patterns. Therapy can help you understand where these patterns began and create healthier ways of connecting.
-
Childhood emotional neglect isn't always obvious, but its effects can last into adulthood. If your feelings were dismissed or ignored growing up, you may still struggle with self-worth, shame, or relationships today.

-
Maybe one partner withdraws while the other pursues. Perhaps conflict escalates quickly, or difficult conversations are avoided altogether. Therapy can help you recognize the cycle you're caught in and begin working together against the pattern—not against each other.
-
Conversations about parents, in-laws, or extended family can quickly become emotional. Whether you're struggling with boundaries, guilt, differing expectations, or feeling caught in the middle, therapy can help you understand each other's perspectives, navigate family and cultural expectations, and create boundaries that reflect the kind of partnership you want to build together.
-
You may feel more like roommates than partners, struggling to find the closeness you once shared. Emotional distance often develops gradually and can leave both partners feeling lonely, misunderstood, or unsure how to reconnect.
-
Childhood emotional neglect, attachment wounds, or previous relationship trauma don't stay in the past. They can influence how safe we feel, how we communicate, and how we respond during conflict. Understanding these patterns can help create greater empathy and connection.

How Therapy Can Help
Hello!Hola!Claudia Galván, LPC
I am a Mexican-American bilingual therapist.
I speak English, Spanish, and Spanglish.
In our work together, we slow things down. We approach relationship patterns and dynamics with curiosity and compassion.
From there, we begin creating new ways of relating. Many clients find they are able to trust themselves more deeply, set and maintain healthier boundaries, communicate more clearly, and experience relationships that feel more secure, balanced, and connected.
Whether you're working to heal attachment wounds, break generational patterns, or recover from childhood emotional neglect, I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults and couples across Texas and Florida.

Healing is possible.
Not by becoming someone new — but by finally feeling safe enough to be yourself.
It’s normal to feel nervous about taking the first step.
I invite you to reach out with any questions you may have or to set up a free 15 minute consultation.
