My name is Malinda, and I am a licensed professional counselor supervisor. I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Argosy University, my graduate degree in Forensic Psychology with a concentration in Law Enforcement from Argosy University, and my graduate degree in Counseling from Dallas Baptist University. I worked with probationers for three years providing counseling services at a private practice and taught Marijuana Intervention, Life Skills, and the DWI Safety Education Course. I have worked at two hospitals, one as a Mental Health Technician while in graduate school and then as a Treatment Manager at another hospital once completing that degree. From there I have continued to work in private practice. I work with individuals (adults and children from ages 12 and up), couples, and families.
I addition, I work with military and those in law enforcement. I specialize in addiction, trauma, personality and mood disorders, eating disorders, LGBTQ+, criminal behavior, self-harm, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anger management, Autism, ADHD, single parenting, chronic illness, and rare diseases. I provide Christian counseling upon request.
Hi, I’m Patricia Inguanzo, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 6 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with adults, teens, couples, and families navigating challenges such as depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, life transitions, and behavioral issues. I received my Master's in Science in Psychology from Our Lady of the Lake University.
I believe one of the most important parts of therapy is having a space where you feel comfortable being yourself. My goal is to create an environment where you feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. I bring experience in both mental health and education, which has allowed me to work with children, adolescents, adults, parents, and families from many different backgrounds and life experiences.
I especially enjoy helping clients navigate anxiety, stress, emotional regulation, family and relationship challenges, school-related concerns, difficult life experiences, and major transitions. I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel uncomfortable, especially if you are used to being the person who handles everything on your own. You do not have to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. We can start exactly where you are.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, I have a Master's Degree in Professional Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy. I am very passionate about working with adults. It is essential to provide a safe environment where clients will be heard and not judged. We will explore your concerns and use effective therapeutic methods to help you work through them. As an LPC Supervisor, I am also passionate about ethically guiding new counselors in the field. I am also a doctoral student pursuing my PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision.
I’m a Doctor of Nursing Practice–trained Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a career shaped by service, compassion, and a genuine love for helping people feel seen, supported, and capable of healing. Before becoming a PMHNP, I spent many years as a CNA and later earned my BSN from the University of the Incarnate Word in 2015 in San Antonio, TX. I worked bedside at University Hospital, transitioned to hospice in 2016, and later served in case management at UTHSCSA. In 2023, I began my DNP–PMHNP program, completing it while working full time at Clarity Child Guidance Center. On December 13th, 2025, I was officially granted the title of “Dr.”, became board certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner on February 9th, 2026, and finally obtained my APRN with the Texas Board of Nursing on March 12th, 2026!
My doctoral project focused on reducing seclusion rates for children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder using evidence‐based, trauma‐informed interventions—an area close to my heart as a parent of a special‐needs child. I’m passionate about geriatric psychiatry and child & adolescent psychiatry, and I bring a calm, grounded, and collaborative style to treatment.
I also briefly served in the United States Air Force, an experience that strengthened my commitment to resilience, service, and advocacy. Today, I continue to advocate for women affected by domestic violence, helping them reclaim safety, confidence, and possibility.
On a personal note, I’m a mom of two boys, happily married for 11 years, and the proud owner of four dogs. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me drinking coffee, shopping for plants, collecting perfumes, baking, cooking, or spending time with family and friends. These parts of my life help me stay balanced, grounded, and connected—values I bring into every therapeutic relationship.
