Dr. Lourdes Valdes, PhD

Psychologist
633 East Fernhurst Drive, Suite 501, Katy, TX
Hello, and welcome to my website! I (she/her/ella) am a licensed clinical psychologist with almost 30 years of experience in the mental health field. While I specialize in treating anxiety in children and adolescents, I have extensive experience in treating and managing a variety of disorders, including OCD, phobias, encopresis, enuresis, feeding issues (in young children), ADHD, autistic spectrum disorders, and oppositional behaviors. I primarily use behavioral and cognitive methods that have clear scientific support for their effectiveness and efficiency. My methods are active, directive, and educative; I aim at solving the problems that the client faces here and now. When treating children, I primarily use a family-based approach and particularly enjoy working with families to help them find ways to more positively interact with their children as well as effectively manage and nurture behavior. For almost two decades now, I have continually facilitated social skills groups for school and middle school-age children who need to learn to more effectively interact with peers. I am certified in the UCLA PEERSĀ® group method. I am also a trained provider of SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions) treatment for child anxiety. Equally fluent in English and Spanish, I have received specialized training in working with children with medical problems and concurrent psychological concerns. My practice embraces diversity and inclusion. I foster an open, welcoming environment and provide affirming care for people of all backgrounds, ethnicities, and identities. You are most welcome here, and you can rest assured that this is a safe space. Please know that I do not support or engage in conversion therapy, as it has been proven harmful and is not founded in science. In addition to being a licensed psychologist in my home state of Texas, I hold an Authority to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT) and can practice telehealth under PSYPACT.
