Intro
Howdy from the desert mountains of far west Texas, a most magical place. My name is Dr. Bibiana "Bibi" Gutierrez and I've been working as a Texas Licensed Clinical Psychologist for nearly 30 years, as well I hold a PSYPACT license to practice Telehealth in 42+ states. I was trained as a generalist and have developed expertise in providing trauma-informed care to underserved folx across the life span, in virtually all settings, using a transtheoretical model which meets you where you are utilizing whatever approaches are the most effective for the change and growth you seek.
Having grown up as a military brat, living in many different places, I developed a passion for exploring other cultures, places, peoples, and foods. This also taught me how to flexibly adapt, welcome novel experiences, and understand that what's considered "normal" is to a great degree socially constructed. Thus the core value which guides my work as a clinician and diagnostician is to empower you to discover your true self, to affirm your intersectional identities, and to live a life that is meaningful for you.
My lived experience of being "othered" as a Queer, Latinx, cisgender woman, and mother of two beautiful neurodivergent young adults has sensitized me to the power of being truly seen, affirmed, and supported in our natural capacity as humans to reach our full potential, to live healthy, meaningful lives, and that we all have a place in our global community. So through therapeutic experiences and/or a diagnostic process your innate strengths and unique gifts can be discovered, made explicit, to be shared with you, and your loved ones so that you can live your best life!
