Trauma and PTSD Therapists in 78229

I absolutely love what I do! My ideal client is someone who wants to work on themselves. I welcome challenges and don’t scare easily. I am well versed in trauma but am always willing to learn more. I want to help my client reach their goals of living better and being better for not only themselves but the people they love. This world is a world of uncertainty, the only thing that is constant is change. When someone wants to change or embrace the changes they are going through, I am here to help them tackle the changes head on.

Life sometimes takes us in directions that are unknown, unwanted, unexpected and out of our control. When it does, it can appear overwhelming and difficult to face these issues and emotions by ourselves. Sometimes we feel that is the only option in order to succeed. What we tend to forget is life is a journey that we should take as a community and not individually. We can overcome theses issues together. My role would be to ride alongside with you, supportively and with an open mind to help you achieve the life that best fits you.

Hello, my name is Rachel Saenz and I am passionate about helping people through their grief journey and helping them move through their feelings while also providing a safe space for them to express their thoughts. The majority of my practice focuses on grief/bereavement, trauma/PTSD, C-PTSD symptoms, anxiety, depression, and pregnancy/postpartum issues. My approaches include person centered therapy where you are met with unconditional positive regard and a safe space. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help challenge all the troubling thoughts running through our minds.

Life can sometimes feel overwhelming and it's important to know that you don't have to go through it alone. I can provide support if you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship issues or simply need an objective listener to help you gain clarity and perspective. The therapeutic approach I utilize focuses on identifying, encouraging and using your inner strengths, abilities, skills and resources to help you achieve positive change and growth. My Humanistic approach to therapy, incorporates evidence-based practices such as CBT & DBT. Key aspects of this approach include:

Are you looking for a change? Does your relationship need help? Are you dealing with depression, loss or anxiety? I have 20 years of experience helping adults, couples and people suffering from trauma. I am EMDR and Gottman trained. . I provide an environment of safety, privacy and acceptance where you can express your thoughts, feelings and experiences. I believe that depression and anxiety are major road blocks to success and the quality of an individual's life. Start your journey today!

I aim to establish warm, collaborative therapeutic relationships with my clients. It is important to me to create a comfortable and safe environment for each client or family. I strive to empower my clients to use their own strengths and individualized capabilities to reach their goals and find balance. I deem it important to consider individuals to be part of a family unit when working with families. I think it's beneficial to remain creative with each person/family.

Are you feeling stuck and unsure of what to do next? Like you're treading water and doing everything you can just to keep afloat? Life is hard, and with so many challenges, it can feel overwhelming to know how to take the next steps. No matter what stage of life we are in, our life experiences are pieces of our story. Sometimes these experiences end up having a hold on us, making us feel like we are caught in the current. If you are looking for a place to feel supported on your life journey in a non-judgmental and accepting way, then you are in the right place.

Roxanne Roussett is a Licensed Professional Counselor who received her Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio. She has gained extensive experience from working with a variety of populations in a non-profit mental health agency, community college, and private counseling center. Currently, some of her clinical interests include working with children (6 years+) and adults, who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, and chronic stress.

I am an LPC Associate, supervised by Miranda Solis, LPC-S. I have worked with teens while they were hospitalized for self-harm or suicidal ideation, teens currently in the child welfare system in the group home setting, and children and families following an outcry of abuse. A big part of working with this population is working with their parents, so I could be a good fit if your child has experienced any of these problems. I also have experience with depression, anxiety, trauma, and bipolar disorder. My age range is from age 8-80.

Taking the first step towards making change is often the hardest, but you are not alone. Together we will work towards identifying your goals. It can be making changes to your relationships, mood, healing from trauma, or anything in between. Often, we ignore these things either by distracting or numbing ourselves. While it can be uncomfortable to sit with the discomfort of troubling times, there is growth and healing waiting for you on the other side.

I specialize in brief therapy with a solution-focused approach using my client's strengths to arrive at solutions to their current problem. Oftentimes, these solutions can be practiced and implemented in a relatively short period of time. If necessary, I use additional tools such as cognitive behavioral therapy and hypnosis.

If you are struggling, I am here to listen. My mission is to help you through whatever challenges you're facing and to grow into the person you want to be. Through my training I’ve helped clients from many walks of life understand and develop skills to manage depression, anxiety, major life-transitions, grief, and trauma. Whatever your concern, I’ll work with you to address them in a trusting and nonjudgmental space.

Everyone possesses resiliency though we may not realize it in times of hardship or emotional suffering. Sometimes it takes a different kind of conversation to identify and amplify this resilience to put you back in the driver seat of your life. I use a solution focused, cognitive behavioral, and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) approach tailored to help you meet your therapeutic goals.

Hello, I’m Ione! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who brings authenticity, compassion, and a dash of dorkiness. My experience includes working with individuals, families, couples, and teens. With individuals, we’ll focus on building self love and discovering how past trauma can affect the relationships we have with ourselves and others. With couples and families, we’ll work towards undoing those patterns we get stuck in through building communication, developing trust, and understanding emotions.

My approach to helping is based on my client's perspective rather than my own. I contend that appreciating and respecting the client's experience for what it is, is essential to productive therapeutic growth. I view counseling as a highly personal and subjective experience, where developing an empathic, connected and trusting relationship is imperative; it is through the safety of this connection that clients can work toward positive change. While I have had extensive experience working with a wide variety of clients, my specializations include women's issues (including domestic violence and trauma), relationships, GLBTQI issues, pregnancy/infertitility issues, internet addiction and couples work.

I am now accepting new clients. My hope as your counselor, is that I may be there to help guide you on your journey navigating the difficulties of life. Together, I hope to empower you to cultivate and regain a sense of control and awareness of self, in order to foster healing, growth, and independence. I have experience working with abuse, domestic violence, disaster, traumatic loss, trauma, sexual trauma/abuse, anxiety, depression, as well as building social and emotional skills, and much more!

*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, or a painful difficult past that is affecting your life now? I have extensive training in a wide range of treatment modalities because every client is unique and I strive to offer an individual approach in treating each client. My treatment approaches are based on a combination of psychotherapy models that help clients uncover the root of their problems and support clients in strengthening their defenses.

It is an honor and a privilege to witness the healing process as it unfolds within individuals who enter psychotherapy. I truly believe that each of us have the power to reach our full potential. When we care for ourselves, we are able to have much deeper and more meaningful relationships with others. I work with people who have chronic mental illness and those who have experienced trauma or need support in stressful situations. I also help people who want to get to know themselves better or have a deeper understanding of self. I often refer to the unconscious and attachment relationships to help people gain insight.

I have been a professional social worker for over 10 years and have worked extensively in the field of co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders. I have experience working with both groups and individuals and am trained to address issues including PTSD, trauma, mood disorders, and perinatal mental health issues. Whatever issue you are struggling with I am confident that together, we can find a solution to help you achieve your goals.
