San Antonio, TX 78251
I specialize in trauma services and have provided services for many survivors of childhood trauma (child/adult) as well as their caregivers or partners to heal past hurt.
Going through life with all of our day to day occurrences plus the unexpected ones can cause our vision to become clouded. We've all been there- I've been there. You don't have to sort it out on your own. Sometimes our challenges are due to circumstances we had no control over like traumas or other events and sometimes it is due to issues within our families and each issue impacts an individual differently- this is why restoring and managing relationships is often a focus of therapy. I can understand that desire for a renewed mind; free from the stress and worry of the world, to be able to live with peace and order.

I use visual aids and unique illustrations of topics discussed, so if you fear that you may have trouble talking at first, don't worry; it will be easier than you think!

Are you struggling in your marriage/relationship? Does this sound familiar? Hi, my husband and I do not seem to be happy anymore. Over the years we have both made some bad mistakes and have hurt each other. Now, we hardly talk and when we do it becomes an argument, we say a lot of hurtful things to each other. In our last argument, things got really out of hand, and he left the house, slamming the door, and hasn't been back home since. I have been crying since last night. We love each other, but, after our last fight I just don’t know what to do or where to go from here. I really need some help.

Do you desire deep and meaningful relationships? Are you looking for genuine closeness and connection but being held back by the fear of rejection? It's normal to want to feel safe and understood in relationships if you're a human. I know how daunting and disheartening it can be to navigate relationships when past experiences have left you feeling wounded and distrustful. I work with clients who feel "lost," lonely, or even resentful on their journeys through life, be it new parenthood, loss of a loved one, new job, memories from past trauma, or significant life adjustment.
