Rekindling Hope Therapy San Antonio, TX 78251
Are you tired of having the same argument with your partner and not feeling heard? Are you stressed and overwhelmed feeling like no matter what you do, nothing is ever good enough? Anxiety, comparison, and trying to keep it together is draining. You’ve realized all the people pleasing and unrealistic expectations to be perfect isn’t serving you anymore. Whether you need help adjusting to life transitions, communicating within your relationships, or want to work through some negative past experiences, together we can figure out what's getting in the way and rekindle the hope that's been lost.
My approach in therapy is to guide you in the direction you are wanting to go in. I specialize in working with couples and relationships, anxiety, depression, and trauma-related issues in collaboration with you. I believe therapy is a synergistic relationship and can only be achieved through authenticity and vulnerability to create transformation.
If you want to feel heard and understood while also desiring positive transformation, then I would be honored to support you in your journey towards growth and healing. While I utilize a direct approach in therapy, it is done with compassion and empathy to encourage and empower you. I would love to offer a free consultation to see if we would be a good fit.
Call or Desiree Medina now for a free 15 minute consultation - (210) 941-2597
