Celeste Galindo

Meet Celeste,

I began my career as a teacher and later became a school counselor, which deepened my passion for supporting children and adolescents. Working in schools allowed me to see firsthand the challenges students face, from academic pressures to personal struggles. This experience inspired me to pursue counseling further, so I could provide a more focused and therapeutic approach to helping others. Now, as a therapist, I bring that same dedication and understanding to my practice. My background in education and counseling helps me connect with clients in a meaningful way, creating a safe space where they feel supported and heard.

I graduated from The University of Texas Permian Basin, with a Masters of Arts in Counseling with a Play Therapy Certification. I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate supervised under Amy Garman.

My counseling approach is centered on creating a safe, accepting, and empathetic space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. I understand that each individual has a unique story. I tailor my approach to meet each client’s needs, incorporating various therapeutic techniques, including play therapy and sand therapy, to provide a personalized and effective experience. By collaborating with my clients, I help them navigate challenges and work toward positive growth in a way that best supports their journey.

What makes me unique is my deep passion for working with students and young adults, coupled with my extensive experience in educational and counseling settings. My background in Child and Family Studies, along with my counseling expertise, allows me to understand the complexities of family dynamics, childhood development, and the unique challenges young people face today.

I bring a compassionate and collaborative approach, ensuring that each client feels truly heard and supported. My ability to integrate various therapeutic techniques enables me to tailor my approach to meet individual needs. Above all, I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, accepted, and empowered to grow. My goal is to help them uncover their strengths, process their experiences, and move toward a healthier, more fulfilling future.
