Getting to know Andrea Figueroa
As a Licensed Professional Counselor and the Founder of Chingona Therapy PLLC, my mission is to provide a culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and empowering space for individuals seeking support, healing, and personal growth. I specialize in working with women, BIPOC individuals, first-generation professionals, and those navigating life transitions, anxiety, self-worth challenges, and trauma recovery.
I hold a Master’s in Counseling from Texas A&M University - Kingsville and have a background in mental health counseling, crisis intervention, and community-based therapy. I bring a compassionate yet direct approach that blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and somatic healing techniques. I believe therapy should be a collaborative and transformative process—one where you are heard, validated, and given the tools to break free from limiting beliefs, set boundaries, and step into your full potential.
At Chingona Therapy, I honor each client’s unique cultural background, lived experiences, and personal strengths. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can unpack past wounds, build resilience, and move forward with confidence. Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt, stress, relationship dynamics, or healing from generational trauma, I am here to support you in your journey toward growth, self-compassion, and emotional well-being.
If you're ready to take the next step in your healing journey, I invite you to connect with me. Let’s do the work together.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Therapy with me is a collaborative, empowering, and culturally affirming experience. I approach each session with compassion, honesty, and a deep commitment to your healing and growth. My style is warm, direct, and strengths-based—I’ll provide a safe space for you to explore your experiences while also gently challenging unhelpful patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, somatic techniques, and trauma-informed practices to help you build self-awareness, resilience, and emotional regulation. If you are struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, boundary-setting, or life transitions, we will work together to develop practical strategies that allow you to feel more grounded, confident, and in control of your journey.
I believe therapy is not just about coping—it’s about thriving, breaking cycles, and stepping into the most authentic version of yourself. Expect a space where your cultural background, lived experiences, and unique strengths are honored and integrated into your healing process.
Most importantly, I meet you where you are and work at a pace that feels right for you. Healing is not linear, but you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s take the next step together.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
When working with me, therapy is a collaborative and tailored experience. During our first session, we will explore your goals, challenges, and background to gain a deeper understanding of what has brought you to therapy. This session is a safe space for you to share at your own pace, and I will guide the conversation with curiosity, compassion, and without judgment. Together, we will identify key areas for growth, set realistic goals, and develop a roadmap for your healing journey.
In ongoing sessions, I use a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, somatic practices, and strength-based approaches to help you understand thought patterns, regulate emotions, and develop coping skills. Therapy with me is not just about talking—it’s about building practical tools that you can use in real life. Whether it's processing past experiences, working through anxiety or self-doubt, setting healthy boundaries, or finding clarity in major life decisions, we will approach your healing in a way that feels empowering and manageable.
I believe that growth happens not only in our sessions but also in the moments in between. Because of this, I often provide reflection prompts, mindfulness exercises, or action steps to help you apply what we discuss in therapy to your everyday life. My goal is to help you move from feeling overwhelmed or stuck to feeling more grounded, self-assured, and in control of your life.
