Love Roots Therapy focuses on the mental health needs of adults, adolescents, and couples. Our practice provides virtual and in person counseling sessions depending on the preference of our clients. Our team is dedicated to helping patients achieve and enhance their psychological and spiritual well-being by using a variety of psychological modalities.
Our counselors strive to meet our clients “where they are”. We provide an accepting environment using tools to help reframe and understand unconscious beliefs that keep us from moving forward. Our counselors work collaboratively with individuals to identify their goals, aspirations, and desired outcomes. We support individuals in developing strategies, action plans, and coping mechanisms to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. The counseling process aims to empower individuals, fostering a sense of agency and control over their lives.
ABOUT US
About Veronica, LPC
Love Roots Therapy was started by me, Veronica Cerda. I grew up in Dallas and always dreamed of becoming a counselor and creating a practice that helps individuals and couples with concerns and issues that have taken over their happiness. I grew up in a Mexican household where mental health was not believed to be something you sought help for. “You just have to get over it” was what I was told. When I went away to college, my outlook was expanded, and I sought counseling for myself.
At that point, I realized the benefits and ultimately, the results of being in therapy. Now as a counselor, I see my clients growing, healing, and overcoming obstacles they feared they would never overcome. It is the most rewarding feeling in the world and now my purpose is to continue this journey to help others.
About Jaleesia Rosemond, LPC
My journey to becoming a mental health counselor was deeply inspired by the profound impact I witnessed in the lives of those around me, as well as my own transformative experiences in therapy. Witnessing the resilience and courage of individuals navigating their mental health challenges sparked within me a profound sense of purpose and compassion. Through my own therapeutic journey, I gained invaluable insight into the transformative power of empathy, understanding, and support. Motivated by these experiences, I embarked on a path to become a mental health counselor, driven by a passion to accompany others on their own paths of healing and self-discovery.
About Stefan Waltke, LPC
Becoming a mental health counselor was a natural evolution for me, fueled by a genuine fascination with the intricacies of the human mind and a profound awareness of the repercussions of neglecting mental health. Delving into the complexities of psychology and observing firsthand the detrimental effects of overlooking mental well-being underscored the urgency and importance of this field for me. I am deeply committed to helping individuals navigate their inner landscapes, equipping them with the tools and insights needed to cultivate resilience and lead fulfilling lives.
About Ana Ponciano, LMSW
My journey is deeply rooted in my experience growing up in an Indigenous community in the South of Mexico. Witnessing the ripple effects of generational trauma within my community sparked a profound motivation in me. I felt a strong desire to pursue education and therapy as a way to help others navigate and heal from their own experiences of trauma. My work focuses on helping individuals confront their trauma through somatic and EMDR therapy approaches that I believe are crucial for deep and lasting healing. As a proud Mexican-American with Indigenous roots, my commitment to empowering people to reach their full potential is driven by personal experiences and desires to see others thrive. My journey is a testament to resilience, empathy, and unwavering dedication to making a positive impact in the lives of those that I serve.
