Therapists in San Antonio, TX

I am living proof that challenging trials, such as life experiences and surviving cancer, can in fact triumphantly shape us into stronger, successful individuals. I have a tremendous passion for life and assisting others to reach their greatest potential. As a therapist, I employ various therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, in order to focus on patterns of behavior and ways in which we define ourselves within the context of our relationships with others. I would love to support you with your personal growth goals.

Living with purpose, authenticity, and aligned values is the way out of anxiety, shame, and depression. I want to help you find your way to a more joyful life. I believe in a holistic, human-centered approach that acknowledges the real challenges of the world today, the complexities of each person's experience, and the limited usefulness of one size fits all labels and diagnosis. I believe the therapeutic space should be a safe one, but also one that challenges and encourages growth. Some of my specialties include working with trauma, anxiety, perfectionism, poor boundaries/codependency, and life transitions.

Seeking help and finding the right therapist for you can be a daunting and challenging process. The key to positive, lasting change is finding a therapist who will tailor your treatment based on your individual needs and strengths, and help you overcome the behaviors and thoughts that are getting in your way. You need someone who will listen and understand you without judgment, support you through these changes, be honest with you, and challenge you when needed.

I truly believe that everyone can benefit from therapy at some point in their lives. Seeking out treatment is a big step and it's important to find the right Therapist to help you. I offer treatment based on your needs and help create a positive mindset for those motivated for change.

I completed the following degrees, licenses, & certifications to provide comprehensive care for clients: Registered Nurse, Functional Medicine Practitioner, Board-Certified Faith-Based Therapist, Psychology Graduate, Licensed Minister, & Certified Life/Wellness Coach. I am fundamentally motivated to lead others to overcome challenges & odds as I serve them by offering advice, education, treatment & emotional support helping to make an impact that produces positive substantial changes in their lives. In addition, I utilize labs and licensed pharmaceutical-grade nutraceuticals to help my clients achieve better health.

Are your relationships suffering? Is your sexual behavior out of control? Are you spending way too much time on the internet? Are you concerned about your drinking or drug use? If the answer is yes, I can help you. My clinical experience focuses on addiction, trauma, childhood abuse issues, mood disorders, relationship issues, codependency, and unresolved grief and loss. Over the past nine years, I have worked with individuals, couples and families in creating a safe, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic environment. Together, we can begin the journey to a healthier, happier you, with stronger relationships and positive, lasting change.

My speciality is in queer-identity work. Since the queer experience often comes with a unique set of growing pains, and subsequent wounds. Most of my clients are people who first healed these wounds through overachievement & overcompensation, but overlooked the limitations that came with these coping mechanisms. Let's break the patterns and confront the void. You deserve peace.

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.

I am solution-based coach. My clients are finding their voices, establish safe boundaries, effectively communicating their wants and desires, while learning to read and handle situations or relationships impacted by shame, guilty, trauma, religious/ social conflicts, health restrictions, aging, confusion, misinformation, and mental health hurdles. Seeing beyond the mask is my “Super Power”. It helps people to feel seen, safe and supported.

Life can oftentimes feel overwhelming and if you have wished for an instruction manual or 'how-to' guide, you are not the first, nor will you be the last. My approach works to help you better understand how best to navigate the world around you, especially if the world was not built with you in mind. Together, we can develop the support, structure, and safety that you deserve while going through life. My practice is neurodivergence-affirming and queer-positive. I strive to foster an environment where you can belong, instead of one where you have to fit in.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I am dedicated to supporting individuals who are ready to embark on a journey of growth and change. I believe that each person possesses an inherent ability to move towards wholeness and wellness, and my goal is to collaborate with you in unlocking this potential. Through our work together we will cultivate your inner resources of resilience, happiness, and peace, aiming to restore balance and promote healing within your whole system.

Are you a weary weirdo? Are you a high-achieving adult or teen who struggles with relationships, self-esteem, or burnout? Are you someone who is seeking answers to difficult questions? Do you appreciate a warm and friendly but direct approach when handling challenges? If so, I may be the counselor for you. I take a person-centered and existential approach to counseling - aspiring to help clients find meaning and direction in their lives and relationships. With 15 years of experience in career development and higher education, I have significant expertise in assisting adolescents and adults with college and career decision-making.

Welcome! If you are here is because you have taken an active role in your healing. I can help by guiding you through those confusing rough areas where you could really use an impartial and non judgmental guide. I do this by helping you identify the areas of your life that need some work through insight, identifying patterns that are no longer working even if they did a wonderful job of helping you survive in the past, reworking emotional responses that no longer align with your current values or just being there supporting you as you process difficult emotions. Let me join you on your path to healthier relationships.

Welcome! My name is Amber Semidey, LCSW and my practice is called Discover You Therapy, PLLC. I provide individual psychotherapy services to Texas adults via virtual sessions. It's not an easy thing to realize you need help. We tell ourselves to "be strong" and "figure it out". What happens though when this is no longer effective? Sometimes, we need outside intervention because life gets chaotic, complex and confusing. When this happens, it's not only ok but completely normal as this is a part of the human experience. After all, we aren't robots!

My ideal clients are those who show a willingness to have me walk beside them and hold their pain as they seek clarification on the emotions that drive their distress. By seeking treatment to address relationship issues, they discover that other aspects of their experience are influenced by their powerful need to connect with their significant others. I am best suited to treating marital distress and disconnection between teens and their parents. I understand the unique importance of familial relationships and the significant relief that comes when these relationships are repaired.

Healing begins with you, but you don't have to do it alone. I'm here for you during this journey. I have 17 years experience in the mental health field and 15 years experience in treatment. I am EMDR trained, and love helping clients heal from trauma, depression, and anxiety. Trauma is a lot more common than you realize, and includes any experience that has affected your self worth and/or wellbeing. If you feel different or like you don't belong, come see me. I'm real, compassionate, empathic, and transparent.

Life provides us with experiences that bring us joy and fulfillment – opportunities to grow. We also encounter other situations that can confuse us and have us feeling ill-equipped or unprepared to address the difficulties of sadness, anger, or loneliness – feelings of being stuck. Whether experiencing a crisis or seeking a happier and more satisfying life, I provide personalized counseling specific to my clients’ unique needs and goals.
