Therapists in San Antonio, TX

I’m a licensed psychologist committed to providing high-quality care in order to help you learn about yourself and work toward your goals. My work focuses on increasing self-reflection, self-compassion, and emotional regulation skills in an effort to improve relationships and functioning for individuals, couples, and families. I believe in taking a relational and collaborative approach to therapy to create an affirming, safe, and compassionate enviroment for growth. I'm interested in understanding your various identities and how your unique experiences have shaped and influenced how you feel about yourself and your relationships.

I specialize in providing therapy for anxiety, low self-esteem and perfectionism. Many of us strive for perfection and constantly feel like we're falling short, finding it impossible to accomplish everything within the limited hours of a day. This pursuit of perfection often leads to intense self-criticism and feelings of low self-esteem and inadequacy. My primary objective is to provide a nonjudgemental and calming atmosphere where I can assist you in achieving a state of balance while managing the various demands of your life and the high expectations you set for yourself.

Life isn’t always easy-in relationships, perhaps in your job or career, and sometimes within yourself. You might feel stuck or lost, even though on the surface, you appear to be doing fine. You hide your emotions due to the fear that others will use it against you or perceive you as weak. You are exhausted from feeling not good enough, like a failure or that something is wrong with you. The noise of everyone else's expectations (and sometimes your own) makes it impossible to figure out what you truly want. But I'm here, and we will figure it out together.

Do you find yourself reliving unpleasant memories from your past? These could be situations of childhood abuse/neglect, the horrors of war, or single traumatic events (such as car accidents, assaults, or any situations in which your life or the life of a loved one was threatened). If this is the case, you might have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which is common in civilian and military populations. THE GOOD NEWS IS THERE IS A SOLUTION. There is a powerful therapy called EMDR which has proven to be effective with not only PTSD, but also many other mental health disorders, because more often than not, trauma is the core issue.

I work with clients with diverse backgrounds and a wide range of mental health conditions. Some of these include, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, and addiction. Additionally, I have worked with individuals facing homelessness, multicultural backgrounds, experiencing prejudice, and supported LGBT+ individuals.

You are not alone. Entering the work of therapy can be scary, vulnerable, and yet hopeful all at the same time. As your therapist, I am committed and honored to walk with you through your hurts, challenges, and fears so that you can experience healing, restoration, and hope. I work with individuals from children (and their caregivers) to adults to help with the important and challenging life stages. My hope is to provide support to you through your journey of uncovering insight and strengthening your unique gifts.

I specialize in trauma-informed care, creating a safe and nurturing space for my clients to explore, understand, and overcome unresolved past issues. By using a client-centered approach, I am able to tailor interventions to fit your individual needs. I will empower you to embrace growth and resilience so that you can thrive!

My job is to help people live happier lives. My office is a continuing education service for all who enter. The goal for me, and hopefully for the person I am working with, is to learn from each other through the change agent of conversation. After 40 years of experience, my belief is that humans never really change until what they have done is working anymore, is broken, and/or gone. Thus change begins with loss, some small and some life ending. At these moments of transition, learning how to let go is the lesson, whether we like it or not. Whatever big change you are going through, positive or negative begins with an ending.

Most of us, at one time or another, experience personal problems. Sometimes they affect one's overall performance, sometimes they don't. I am available for those times when situations in life cause personal problems and you need help to get you through them. You don't have to do it alone. I strive to provide a comfortable and trusting environment where you can relax and feel safe. I aim to make therapy a place where you like to go. I know that we are all very unique. I approach each client in a way that is specific to their needs. I am also accepting licensed interns needing supervision.

Are you feeling stuck? Maybe you’re having the same experiences or relationships again and again despite your efforts otherwise. Or perhaps you’ve been through something terrible and want to escape the grip the past has had on your life. Whether you’re looking for information or transformation, you are not alone. I’m a Licensed Psychologist and Air Force veteran with experience treating adults with a wide variety of mental health concerns. I have a particular interest in helping those who have experienced trauma, those who haven’t benefitted fully from previous therapy, and those whose symptoms have made recovery challenging.

I am drawn to the work of therapy because I believe it is in the context of relationships that we come to know the many facets of ourselves, and can encounter opportunities for profound growth and healing. I see the therapy process as one of joint exploration into the rich worlds both within and around us, and consider it a great privilege to think deeply with others about what matters most in their lives. In this process I draw from evidence-based treatments like psychodynamic, relational, and experiential approaches, while seeking to respond flexibly to the unique needs of my clients.

Are you looking for affordable, low cost therapy? There is no need to sacrifice quality of service due to a tight budget. Feelings of overwhelming sadness or nervousness don't have to be a part of your daily life. I have extensive experience assisting clients with managing the symptoms of depression and anxiety.

I counsel individuals and families of all ages.
