Therapists in San Antonio, TX

Universally, we all get stuck in life, and universally, we all have the power to learn and change. I believe the therapeutic relationship is foundational to meaningful wellness and growth. My approach to therapy involves creating safety through honoring an individual’s culture, values and experiences. This paves the way for healthier patterns of navigating one's emotions, responses and relationships. I am here to understand your experiences and support you in living a fulfilling life.

If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, confused, powerless, helpless to control life issues, a healthy first step toward realizing positive change in your life, is to invest in therapy. By discovering your strengths, gifts, and unique perception, we can begin utilizing these attributes toward effective thoughtful problem solving and decision making behaviors.

Let's face it, therapy is hard. It's uncomfortable, it's confronting, and it can dig up emotions we'd rather keep buried. But amidst the discomfort lies an opportunity for profound growth and healing. Therapy isn't about wallowing in misery; it's about bravely facing the demons that hold us back and emerging stronger on the other side. It's a journey of self-discovery, guided by a compassionate professional who offers insight, support, and tools to navigate life's challenges. So, while it may not always be easy, the rewards of therapy are immeasurable – a clearer mind, a lighter heart, and the freedom to live authentically.

It's not easy to ask for help. Maybe you've shared your situation with close friends or family and received support and advice, but things aren't really getting better. Maybe you've been hesitant to seek out a therapist. The fact that you're here now is a demonstration of your commitment and dedication to your own personal growth and your relationships. Whether you're experiencing anxiety or depression, or you're looking for a relationship, healing from a relationship that's ended, or are in a relationship you want to strengthen or repair, you're in the right place.

Healthy relationships with ourselves and others are challenging, yet integral to a balanced and satisfying life. I help individuals and couples target opportunities for growth and optimize connection. Our goal is to foster effective communication, increase self-awareness, and deepen empathy. You can expect to focus on your strengths, identify practical ways to navigate your concerns, and express yourself freely in a non-judgmental space. Relationships are my niche, with an added emphasis on your individual mental health needs.

Welcome! The word trauma can sound scary and feel intense and overwhelming. I specialize in working with complex trauma and dissociative disorders, anxiety, mood disorders, and personality disorders. As an IFS, EMDR, and Somatic practitioner, I work with clients on helping all of their parts to find peace, return to the state of Self-Leadership, and find healing!

I believe in a therapeutic process that revolves around life's changes and the journeys it takes us on. Choosing to change your focus is a powerful way of transforming any situation. Focusing on the positive doesn't mean that we are denying reality or avoiding what isn't working. It simply allows us to work from a grounded place in order to make the most informed decision from a less emotional place of clarity. Within our sessions, the goal is to cultivate a trusting and collaborative therapeutic relationship where an individual can bring their full self into session without any fear.

The effect of traumas big and small can grind our lives to a halt, and make connections impossible. Tools like EMDR and IFS can bring hope to the stuck parts of our worlds, and finally allow us to be present in our own lives again. Reach out by text or email to explore if we are a good team to tackle your problems, bring needed clarity, and offer the sanctuary of a healing and non-judgemental relationship.
