My Background
I am Tralynza, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I was born and raised in Memphis, TN, and I am a nine-year U.S. Air Force, active duty, war veteran. I earned my bachelor’s in social work at Texas A&M-Central Texas and a master’s in social work at Our Lady of the Lake University-Worden School of Social Service, with concentration on Hispanic children and families.
I have experience working with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, depression, anxiety, children, teens, adults, and groups. I am a certified Mental Health First Aider, specializing in suicide prevention and intervention and a Certified Grief Informed therapist. My approach to treatment includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based CBT(MBCBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), to name a few. I also have 10 years of experience in Texas’ second largest ISD as a campus-based social worker and therapist. My experience also extends to veterans and their families. Because of my own military journey, I have a unique insight on veterans’ needs and unique experiences.
I entered this field because I am passionate about eliminating the mental illness stigma and closing the gap to access to care, particularly in black and indigenous people of color (BIPOC) communities. I was disheartened by the lack of access to care for my students and their families, as well as a lack of cultural representation in the field. I believe that representation matters and has a huge influence on a community’s openness to seek mental health care. I strive to provide the best possible care for all clients, no matter their race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation.
In my free time I enjoy traveling, cycling, watching and attending sporting events, and spending time with my teen son.
