About Romia

Romia "Mia" Evans Baggs is a licensed clinical social worker with 16 years of professional experience practicing in Texas. She brings a warm, interactive style to her work and blends evidence-informed methods with a human-centered outlook.

Background and approach

Mia focuses on a broad range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family difficulties, parenting challenges, self-esteem and motivation, grief, addictions, and stress-related struggles. Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered principles and other complementary modalities to shape conversations and goals that fit each person's needs.

She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring treatment plans and session dialogue to individual circumstances. Mia aims to help clients explore practical strategies and personal values to move toward a more fulfilling life, offering steady collaboration and support throughout the process.

Approaches that guide online collaboration



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to build practical coping skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and develop acceptance-based strategies to live more in line with those values while managing difficult emotions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist supports the client’s own capacity for growth and self-directed change.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to explore goals, preferences, and life circumstances, then tailor methods and pace so the plan fits the individual's needs and values rather than imposing a single technique.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or travel. These formats make it easier to attend regularly, maintain momentum between sessions, and use different communication styles as treatment tools, helping clients access consistent therapeutic support from their own environments.
