Quick answer
AVA Médica offers psychological care in Piedras Negras with José Julián Huerta Vázquez, licensed psychologist (license 8434692). Therapy helps with anxiety, stress, sadness that won't lift, and other things weighing on you, in a confidential space and in Spanish. Psychology visits are by appointment: message us on WhatsApp to book.
When to seek help
- Anxiety or nerves that keep you from sleeping or focusing.
- Stress you can feel in your body: headaches, a tight chest, exhaustion.
- Sadness or low mood that lasts for weeks.
- A loss, a big change, or a situation you don't know how to handle.
Asking for help isn't overreacting or being weak. Just as you'd see a doctor for a fever that won't go away, emotional health deserves care too.
What the first session is like
The first session is for talking about what brings you in, understanding your situation, and agreeing on how to work together. Everything you share is confidential. You don't need to have it all figured out to start.
If you need urgent help
If you're having thoughts of harming yourself, get help right away: in the U.S., call or text 988, and in Mexico call Línea de la Vida at 800 911 2000. Both are available 24 hours a day.
If you're coming from Texas
Finding therapy in Spanish in Texas border towns is hard and expensive without insurance. Since visits are by appointment, you can plan your crossing. If you're coming from Eagle Pass, Del Rio, or South Texas, message us before you cross: we'll give you the exact cost and guide you on the Medical Lane at International Bridge #1, which cuts the trip back to the U.S. to about 15 to 20 minutes.
