Welcome! ¡Bienvenido/a!

My name is Mariana Carpio and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas. I have been in the field for nearly a decade. When the idea of having my own private practice first came to mind, I debated whether to give it a name in English or Spanish—but then I thought, why not BOTH? And just like that, Girasol Therapy was born.

About

Hello! ¡Hola!

I am the proud daughter of immigrants. No es que no sea “ni de aquí ni de aya” but rather “soy de aquí y de aya.” I understand the complexities of cultural identity. Whether it’s finding a balance between traditional values and contemporary societal norms, or navigating the influence of multiple cultures, I recognize the importance of honoring diverse backgrounds in therapy. Throughout my practice, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals across the lifespan—children, teens, and adults—helping them navigate life’s challenges with empathy, respect, and a genuine commitment to their growth. My therapeutic approach is person-centered and trauma-focused, meaning that I prioritize building a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel seen and heard. I believe in the strength and resilience each person already carries within themselves and aim to empower them to tap into that inner resource. Whether I’m helping a child work through behavioral issues, guiding a teen in managing emotional turmoil, or supporting an adult through complex life transitions, my goal is to help individuals not just cope, but thrive! Ultimately, my approach is one of collaboration—working together to build on your existing strengths, empowering you to create meaningful and lasting change in your life. If you’re ready to begin your therapeutic journey or have additional questions feel free to reach out via my contact form.
