Where Spirituality Meets Psychology
Stay Connected and Healthy!
I am offering video counseling in Texas and abroad, and video coaching nationally and internationally, on an on-going basis.
Even though, for some, it may take some quick learning and/or getting used to a creative adjustment; meeting online may offer you an opportunity for openness and connection in a whole new way from the privacy of your own home, wherever you are.
Holistic Counseling & Other Holistic Healing Services Online & in the Greater Austin, Texas Area
Welcome and wishing you a happy, safe and healthy 2021! My name is Lina, and I offer a holistic perspective to wellness and healing. My approach is spiritual, heart-centered, embodied, and intuitive. In working with my clients, I recognize the importance of compassionately and mindfully addressing the physical, spiritual, psychological, and emotional components of their experience in order to have a whole person understanding of their issue.
I value diversity and multiculturalism, and I am a fluent Spanish speaker. Also, I am LGBTQIA+ allied, non-binary allied, racial justice allied, blind allied, cancer survivorship allied, and a supporter of body positivity.
As a Holistic Counselor, I weave together a tapestry of tools inspired by the expressive arts, somatic counseling psychology, neuroscience, conscious movement, ecopsychology, transpersonal psychology, guided imagery, energy healing practices, kundalini yoga, shamanic practice, Jungian psychology, mindfulness, and contemplative practices that leads to lasting healing and transformation.
I honor all spiritual paths that provide a better understanding of our relationship with the universe, and that positively influence us to want to be and do better in relationship to ourselves and others. Whether you have your own way of experiencing spirituality (quiet reflection, time out in nature, etc.), or belong to an organized religion, I will employ your spirituality as a resource to best support your holistic healing experience. Moreover, with a foundation in Body Psychotherapy and Dance Movement Therapy, I integrate specialized psychotherapeutic practices with special attention to transpersonal soul work that allow unconscious material to manifest using breath, movement, sensation, and imagery.
In my journey, I have dedicated many, many years to my own self-healing, spiritual, growth, and professional development, and continue to do so. Hence, because I have gone through my own healing journey with depression, anxiety, trauma, and vast spiritual exploration, among other things, I know how to get through and move beyond difficulties that seem insurmountable, at the time they’re happening.
I recognize that you already have all of the resources that you need within you to make the changes that are necessary to thrive in your life; however, you may not see this at this time and do not know how to move forward in creating the life you envision. My passion is to facilitate whole person healing; let me know if you would like me to support yours.

Work with Lina
"Your decision to walk creates the path ahead."
~ Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
~ Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
The creative process plays a major role in how I work, and what I mean by that is that I see you as a unique individual with unique needs; in my work, I incorporate values of freedom of expression, respect for uniqueness and choice, and I utilize intuition and imagination as guiding instruments to identify and move beyond obstacles.
Your treatment will be tailor-made specifically for you and based on your focused intention to tend to determined areas. I will not have an agenda that dictates how or where I think things should go; instead, I will be open to where you are and what you are needing every step of the way. I will be actively committed to your healing process and you will be too; provided that we are a good fit for each other and you are ready for this level of commitment.
Depending on what is in your best interest, some of the specialized tools I often use are: Somatic Experiencing, Hakomi, Embodied Presence, Movement-Based Interventions, Visualization & Guided Imagery, Focusing, Gestalt Parts Work, Mindfulness, chemical dependency counseling (mostly with clients in recovery), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, The Moving Cycle, Sound/Gong Healing, Energy Work, and EMDR with somatic interventions. You will be able to find out more information in the About Lina section.
Would you like to be able to express yourself more authentically and embrace who you really are as a human being sexually, spiritually, and culturally? Are trauma, self-doubt, or personal and relationship challenges keeping you from living your life to the fullest? You are not alone!
I intend to bring awareness to unconscious emotions and thoughts that might uncover a more authentic and fulfilling way of being. Thus, I will encourage you to utilize your body as a compass. By being mindful of body sensations, noticing postural changes and movements, and bringing awareness to breath, you will learn how to:
- successfully ride the wave of the most difficult emotions such as anxiety, panic attacks, depression, grief, and anger
- face medically explained and unexplained physical symptoms
- navigate the energetic process of emotional release, physical cathartic discharge, mental labor (mindfulness & awareness), and psycho-spiritual integration
I am interested in exploring the possibility of developing a supportive, therapeutic, and relational relationship that provides a safe and warm container through which you may address your concerns and become more empowered in your own personal process.
Healing is a team effort. Together, we can find the answer to what has been wanting to be healed within you, face much dreaded difficulties, and consider the possibility that everything you need to heal already exists in you, and always has.
Are you ready to be actively involved in creating your own health, so that you may experience and claim your innate wholeness? I am here to encourage you to acknowledge, welcome, and integrate both the shadow and the light within you. It is only when we allow ourselves the freedom to experience our wounds fully that we may begin the healing transformation. Healing happens in relationship. If we are meant to work together, it will be my honor to walk beside you and support you.
So, if you are ready to play an active role in your healing, wish to go beyond talk therapy, and desire to include spirituality and the body-mind connection in your personal growth work, then I may be the holistic counselor or coach for you.
