Jackie Sendejo, M.A., LPC, LCDC
The Heart Behind the Practice, Texas LPC
Hi, I’m Jackie Sendejo, a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC). I have several years of experience working across mental health and substance use settings, including outpatient and intensive outpatient mental health setting, outpatient and inpatient substance use treatment, and in prison therapeutic community settings.
Â
My journey into counseling began with a simple belief: that every person deserves a safe space to be truly seen and heard without judgment. At Centered Growth, I bring my whole self to our sessions, combining clinical expertise with genuine human connection.
Â
I understand that reaching out is often the hardest part. Whether you are navigating a difficult transition or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I am here to walk alongside you. Together, we will cultivate the tools and resilience needed for lasting, centered growth and healing.
