FINDING THE WILLPOWER TO FLOWER
Welcome!
It takes a lot for people to seek out counseling even if they have thought about engaging in this process for a long time.
Reading through this website is not your starting line. This is just the next step after all of the ones you have already taken to be here.
Whether it is starting or returning to counseling, I see you and applaud you for your determination to show up for yourself.
Counseling is a space where you don’t have to pretend everything is okay or hide what you’re going through.
You do that enough in other areas of your life and you do not have to repeat those patterns here.
In counseling, all parts of you are welcome and all the things you have gone through can be talked about.
And guess what? You can leave them with me and only take with you what works for you and not against you.
Erika Esquivel, LPC
Founder of Willflower Counseling, PLLC
My pronouns are she/ her/ ella and I am a Latina of Mexican roots. I provide bilingual counseling in English and Spanish to adult clients residing in the state of Texas. In 2016, I moved to Austin, Texas to begin my career as a counselor and completed my requirements to practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in 2021.
My hope for clients is that they flower into their most genuine self and break through the concrete and the limitations that society has placed on them. To grow into the power of their truth, no matter where they are planted.
What I love most about providing counseling services is the mutual benefit of the Client/Counselor therapeutic relationship. I am always learning from my clients about life and the unique ways humans can connect in the most vulnerable moments. By creating a non-judgmental and safe space, my clients can be honest about no longer avoiding the areas they want to improve on and be curious about the challenge to do different.
