You are not a diagnosis. You are an individual that just wants to have your brain be sharper; be calmer; or having your child have a better experience in school. My clients are tired of medications and want to see more permanent improvements in their daily lives. ADD, ADHD, anxiety, depression....almost everything that stems from the brain benefits from neurofeedback. Adults who feel "foggy", unmotivated and chaotic, use this therapy to optimize their brain. My clients are generally between 7 and 75 years of age. They have sleep issues, chronic stress or may not engage with others well. I can help you.

Do you feel weighted down, tense and stuck? Are you in a gridlock situation that seems difficult to break free from? Has the connection with yourself or others eroded or become non existent ? Life can be challenging! Past losses, traumatic experiences, wounded relationships, addictions or destructive behaviors can be detrimental in all aspects of life, driving a person's behavior and thinking in ineffective ways. Counseling can provide a "sacred space" to sort out the issues. One can begin to breathe in hope and feel that it is possible to enjoy life. Imagine the energy, clarity, calm and connection you can feel with yourself

I specialize in helping individuals, couples and families deal with the difficulties and challenges life sometimes presents us with. These may include situations related to transitions in life, unexpected events, feelings of loneliness, depression, anxiety and stress, difficulties in communication, and conflict in relationships, among other issues. I view life as a journey -specifically, a learning journey- with all its ups and downs.

Congratulations on taking the first step in your mental health journey! We all have personal struggles that we dream of overcoming. I empower individuals to overcome those struggles in a nonjudgmental space. I strive to build strong therapeutic relationships that consist of trust, transparency, and empathy. If you are seeking to improve your mental wellness, Inner Thought Therapy is the place for you!

My practice is geared toward working with early to mid-career professionals, older adults, brain injury survivors, caregivers, and young adults. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, work-life stress, changes in mood, family/relationship issues, or angst about life in general (existential concerns; finding meaning and purpose), I provide a safe space to help you feel understood and honored. You may or may not feel highly motivated to engage in therapy, or even sure you can make changes right now, but I will meet you where you are and tailor my sessions to meet your needs.

Do you feel that the life dance with your partner has lost its rhythm? Has the connection for friendship and communication eroded or become non existent? When the flow of this sacred dance is disrupted, arguments escalate, understanding each other diminishes, and all of a sudden we feel we have lost our best friend. The undercurrent of the this rhythm loss can stem from life events such as big changes, addictions, infidelity, traumatic events, family issues etc.. These life issues can breed feelings of increased fear, anxiety, depression, shame, and anger. When this happens, perspective gets narrowed which can drive ineffective

Anxious, dreading each day, stuck and angry carrying the past's pain and trauma, stuffing feelings with food, just wanting to get over it and feel happy, you want freedom from the memories, shame, and panic attacks so you can live your best life, but you don't know where to begin. It's painful to be in your head, just wanting to get life “right,” and wondering how others do it because their social media pages look nothing like how you feel. All you want is to be free, confident, happy, and at peace with who you are as a person, friend, spouse, parent, and employee.

I've been hands-on in the San Antonio mental health field for nearly a decade helping those suffering with trauma, grief, and loss. Before you undertake any type of counseling or any endeavor at all for that matter, it's important to know what you want to get from it, what you want to accomplish, and how you want your life to look when it's over. It is important to be aware of your trauma, what your triggers are, and in what way do you react. It is also important to know what your goal in therapy will be. Is it to tell your story? To create awareness? To be at peace, or some other reason not listed? Let's discuss these. Be Well.

Since 2007, I've been working as a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in helping people cope with their issues and concerns. Many clients merely need assistance in gaining insight, direction, self-compassion and developing practical coping skills to manage stress. In this journey, I strive to walk alongside clients with mercy and wisdom to help achieve self-actualization and goals.

I have looked at the number of Therapist profiles here in San Antonio and I imagine it can be an overwhelming task to select a Therapist. Do not stress over this too much. There are a lot of good souls listed here. Professional Counselors are trained to listen with empathy, be nonjudgemental and respectful, and to accept clients wherever they are in life's journey. Beyond that, we are a group of individuals who generally like to help others.

I believe that we are created with potential for balance and harmony, however, life is not always easy, we may struggle at times to reach this balance. When we get "stuck" or face difficult challenges, we must first identify which areas of life need adjusting or strengthening, and then, we set out to make the necessary changes. Whether it is physical, emotional, spiritual or mental unbalance, we can positively impact our lives by starting to work in one area, and, since they are all connected, the rest will follow. The mind-body connection is undeniable, research and science favor an integrated approach to behavioral health.

I enjoy helping clients of any age relieve stress and negative energy and become more effective in relationships and the art of living. I work with each persons specific goals towards a more holistic life.

I have been working with kids, teens, adults and families in some role for over 30 years. Having worked as direct care staff while in grad-school, church staff, teaching, and as a therapist, I have had many opportunities to help individuals and families to build on their strengths, and overcome their weaknesses. In addition to my work, I am a parent. In fact I have been a parent in a wonderfully blended family where I have had the privilege to parent 21 children.
