Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Army veteran, and founder of Mindful Point Behavioral Health Counseling — a telehealth trauma practice serving adults across New Mexico.My work centers on evidence-based trauma treatment for veterans, active duty service members, first responders, and adults navigating the lasting effects of difficult experiences. I specialize in EMDR, Written Exposure Therapy (WET), and Image Rehearsal Therapy (IRT) — structured, research-backed approaches that go beyond managing symptoms to actually process what happened. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) runs throughout my work as a values-based framework for building a meaningful life even while difficult emotions are present.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) providing compassionate, evidence-based care for adolescents and adults in Texas and Florida. I specialize in ADHD evaluations and medication management, as well as treatment for anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. I take a patient-centered approach, working collaboratively with each individual to create a personalized treatment plan that supports focus, emotional stability, and overall well-being. My goal is to help you feel more in control, balanced, and confident in your daily life. I offer convenient telehealth appointments with flexible scheduling, including same-week availability.

Do you feel weighed down by trauma, anxiety, OCD, or depression that makes it hard to enjoy life, relationships, or even day-to-day routines? Many people come to counseling hoping to understand their past, regulate emotions, and find relief from patterns that continue to shape their lives. You’re not alone, and healing is possible. Taking the first step can feel intimidating, but it is also a courageous move toward meaningful change. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, confident, and in control of their lives. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), working with individuals, young adults, couples, and families. Many mental health challenges stem from unprocessed pain rooted in earlier life experiences. Through structured guidance and compassionate support, I help clients uncover root causes, build self-awareness, and develop skills that foster resilience, healthier patterns, and stronger relationships. Therapy is always collaborative and tailored to your goals, circumstances, and strengths. I utilize carefully selected, evidence-based approaches, including Eye-Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFBT), Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), and a value-based approach. My style blends clarity, structure, and practical tools with warmth, collaboration, and deep person-centered care. Whether you’re facing intrusive thoughts, grief, identity concerns, relationship challenges, or life transitions, therapy is about more than coping—it’s about building insight, confidence, and lasting change.

You can’t change what you aren’t aware of, and it’s hard to notice what’s keeping you stuck when you’re in the middle of it. Maybe it’s anxiety that doesn’t let up, the weight of a relationship ending, conflict in your family, or patterns you don’t fully understand but keep repeating that can leave you drained and unsure of what comes next. Together, we’ll make sense of these struggles and create a path toward healing and clarity.  I use approaches that help you notice patterns, understand how your experiences and relationships shape the present, and separate yourself from unhelpful stories. We’ll build coping skills and practice new ways of responding. I draw on research and evidence-based practices while keeping the work centered on what matters most to you. Sometimes you sense that something needs to shift, but the way forward isn’t clear. Reaching out can be the first step in making that change feel possible. You don’t have to go through this alone, and I’d be honored to support you.

My work is depth-oriented, relational, and mind-body centered. That means we don’t just focus on managing symptoms — we listen for what your struggles are trying to say. I draw from Jungian and psychodynamic psychotherapy, attachment theory, somatic awareness, and dreamwork. Together, we pay attention to patterns, emotions, relationships, and the symbolic language of the psyche. Therapy becomes a place where insight, emotional experience, and embodied awareness come together. I see therapy as a collaborative process. The relationship itself matters, and change often happens through genuine understanding and meeting — sometimes for the first time. I’m a licensed psychotherapist with over 15 years of experience in private practice. I'm currently in training with JPA in New York for archetypal psychoanalytic psychotherapy and have trained in EMDR, IFS, RLT, CBT, Hakomi, and more. I offer individual and group psychotherapy, and working with adults across a wide range of life concerns.

In our first session, we will focus on getting to know you. We’ll discuss your concerns, mental health history, current symptoms, and what you hope to achieve through treatment. You do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out. This is a space where you can speak openly without judgment. Together, we will explore treatment options and begin creating a care plan that feels comfortable, realistic, and right for you.

Dr. Esther Lapite-Garrett is a licensed psychologist and the founder of Alafiora, a premium private practice offering depth-oriented, attachment-centered care for individuals navigating complex sexual trauma and the relational patterns that form in its aftermath. The clients Dr. Lapite-Garrett works with include survivors of rape, incest, sex trafficking, intimate partner sexual violence, and childhood sexual abuse. What followed that history is the center of her clinical practice: the love obsession, limerence, compulsive sexual behavior, hypersexuality, and emotional dysregulation that form in the aftermath of sexual harm, and that most generalist approaches were never quite equipped to treat. Alafiora is one of a small number of practices equipped to work with the full spectrum of how these patterns express themselves in contemporary life, including the migration of erotic and romantic attachment into AI companionship, parasocial bonds, fantasy-based intimacy systems, and the accelerating escalation that occurs when real-world connection no longer feels safe, satisfying, or possible. The clients who carry these presentations arrive having spent considerable financial, emotional, and psychological resources on experiences that brought temporary relief and deepening shame in equal measure. The clients Dr. Lapite-Garrett works with are not struggling with a lack of insight. They have read the books, tried the prior therapy, and understand their patterns with a clarity that has not been enough to stop them. They wake at 3am with a body that will not settle. They reach for sex or connection not from desire but from the need to feel something, or to feel nothing at all. They love with an intensity that outlasts what the relationship warrants, cycling through obsessive thought long after every rational part of them knows the situation has ended. They make choices in moments of emotional flooding that they do not recognize as their own afterward. They experience behavior escalation, spending elevations, and deepening secrecy. Even still, they find that the pattern repeats, each time carrying a little more shame and a little more distance from the person they understood themselves to be. What years of prior effort could not move, the work at Alafiora finally does. What changes in our work is structural. The clients who engage fully describe experiencing more than symptom management but a fundamental shift in the organizing patterns that formed them, patterns that prior treatment approaches could not reach. Alafiora is a private-pay practice offering sessions virtually, in person, and on location across multiple states. The practice maintains a small, intentionally limited caseload to ensure each client receives the full depth of care their history requires.
