Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas

Foreclosure

I have the mortgage on a small house. Total value $20,000 and the balance of the mortgage is only $2000.00. I have received no payment in 2 months. She doesn't answer my letters. She has caller ID and won't answer the phone. Since the amounts are so small is it possible to foreclose without a lawyer?
