Liliana Reyes, LPC Associate

I began my career in mental health following the completion of my Bachelor’s degree at the University of North Texas. My initial clinical experience involved working with adolescents in a residential treatment setting specializing in anxiety and mood disorders. In my roles as a Mental Health Technician and Education Liaison, I provided direct support to clients experiencing severe depression, suicidality, self-harming behaviors, anxiety disorders, and various personality disorders. I went on to earn my Master of Education (M.Ed.) in Counselor Education from the University of Texas at Austin. During my graduate training, I served as a teaching assistant for the “Mindfulness, Compassion, and Self” course, where I contributed to curriculum development and facilitated experiential learning interventions focused on contemplative practices. My clinical training included counseling internships at the Gender and Sexuality Center at UT Austin and at the Counseling Center at St. Edward’s University, where I provided therapy primarily to young adults navigating identity development, trauma, mood disorders, and relational concerns. Currently, I serve as a Primary Therapist at Recovery Unplugged, a trauma-informed residential treatment center in Austin, Texas. In this role, I provide individual and group therapy to adults across the lifespan, with a focus on addressing substance use disorders and co-occurring trauma. Here I have received psychological first aid training and am currently receiving my certification in RO-DBT.
