About Kamia
Kamia Esquerra is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 10 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship struggles, family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and helping people cope with major life changes. She works with issues connected to family of origin, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, and blended family dynamics.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. Kamia uses client-centered methods to keep conversations focused on what matters to each person. She also draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify patterns of thought that get in the way, and on dialectical behavior strategies to teach concrete skills for emotion regulation and communication.
Sessions often involve talking through specific problems and practicing new ways of responding. She includes mindfulness and solution-focused techniques when they help create short-term change or clearer next steps. For parents, sessions can cover boundaries, role expectations, and coping strategies for stressful family moments.
Kamia’s background includes work with people dealing with domestic violence, separation and divorce, codependency, commitment concerns, eating and body image issues, and responses to natural or human-caused disaster. She integrates this experience into practical plans clients can try between meetings.
People who come to her usually want to change patterns learned in their family of origin, improve communication, or find steadier responses to stress. Kamia favors clear goals and measurable steps so progress is visible as work continues.
Approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify their goals and make decisions based on their own values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses practical exercises and experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with relationship patterns and family-of-origin issues.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. These skills can be useful for people struggling with codependency, control issues, or strong reactions tied to past family roles.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as a client notices what helps most.
