Gerardo Esqueda, LPC

With over a decade of experience in education and counseling, I bring dedication and compassion to my practice. After six years as a teacher and five as a school counselor, I earned my master’s degree from Texas A&M International University (TAMIU) and became a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). In 2022, I founded Rekindle Hope Counseling to offer personalized, empathetic support in a safe, welcoming space. Outside of work, I cherish my family—my wife since 2010 and our two children—who inspire my commitment to helping others find balance and fulfillment.

Rekindling Hope,

One Story at a Time

  • "Jerry truly listened and tailored his services to fit my needs perfectly. He was also so flexible with scheduling, which made the process even smoother. With his support, I was able to work through my concerns and gain the insights I needed to find my own solutions. I’m so grateful for the growth I’ve experienced."

    -Previous Client

  • “He gently challenged me to dig deeper with my self-reflection and to explore my feelings on things I just didn't allow myself to fully explore but also respected my boundaries when I wasn't quite ready. The best thing he helped me with was recognizing toxic patterns I was following which was extremely helpful.”

    -Previous Client

  • "We recently experienced a beautiful moment that showed just how much progress we've made. Instead of shutting down like before, our son offered comfort and connection, completely shifting the mood. The growth has been incredible, and we’re so grateful."
