Student Therapist

Magdalena Escobar

I have always had the desire to help others in a more direct way, which has pushed me to pursue a career in counseling. I am a very honest, non-judgmental, and patient person who loves and cares for the well-being of others. I am glad to assist families, groups, and individuals with meeting their goals and overcoming any obstacles they may be facing. My background has given me experience with moving to another country, adapting to another culture, and understanding the challenges of living in a society that predominantly speaks another language. 

I am a student therapist at Lamar University. I am currently pursuing a master’s degree to become a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) under the supervision of Amy Fuller Phd. I have been a teacher for around 9 years, working with students in K-12 classrooms and with adults in academies in Houston TX, and Honduras. Being a teacher has brought me an abundance of joy and has given me the opportunity to work with students on achieving their greatest ambitions.
