Therapists in Castle Hills, TX

Welcome to my practice! For over ten years I have worked as a licensed counselor, with experience in addictions, family violence, at-risk adolescents, and working with the HIV/AIDS population. I have specific training in Cognitive-Behavioral, Rational Emotive Behavioral, and Solution-Focused Brief therapies. These therapies have been shown through research to be effective in treating depression, anxiety, addictions, and other mental health diagnoses. I also like to incorporate relaxation, mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) techniques, and art therapy techniques in my work with clients.

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.

This can be a difficult time of year. Family obligations, financial stress, and balancing work and family can be especially stressful. It's the perfect time to change our cognitions and behavior to improve our daily experience. Together, we can move towards better coping and optimism. I take joy in working with clients to develop skills, gain self-awareness, experience growth, & appreciate their strengths. My affirmative approach includes changing beliefs & behaviors that are no longer serving you in a supportive and accepting environment. Immediate openings for virtual & in-person counseling with teens, adults, and couples.

We all have an innate goodness, natural spontaneity and potential. We tend to disconnect from it in response to painful experiences. It is a natural, even genetic program, to want happiness and joy in life. The frantic attempt to numb or avoid pain,results in denial of joy and natural spontaneity. My commitment as a therapist is facilitation of healing and transformation towards joy and connection. I use a Holistic approach, seek authenticity, and believe that each person's uniqueness can bring inner peace, extend to family, and enhance relationships. The happiness we generate extends to others and then returns.

I specialize in helping individuals, couples and families deal with the difficulties and challenges life sometimes presents us with. These may include situations related to transitions in life, unexpected events, feelings of loneliness, depression, anxiety and stress, difficulties in communication, and conflict in relationships, among other issues. I view life as a journey -specifically, a learning journey- with all its ups and downs.

Having problems that you just don't know how to solve? It takes courage and strength to seek help. Congratulations on taking that first step. I have been working in the mental health sector for 18 years; providing guidance and help for mental and emotional problems, family problems, relationship issues, LGBT issues, addictions, and behavioral issues in a safe, comfortable and non-judgmental environment. I listen to my clients needs and concerns and provide constructive feedback to help them begin their journey to health and recovery. I would be honored to assist you.

¡Hola! I'm Juan Puente, a passionate LPC-Associate providing counseling services in both English and Spanish.

Are you feeling lost and not sure what the next step is? I am here to process those thoughts and talk with you. It is not uncommon to lose connection with our voice and inner self. I am here to help you rebalance and re-discover how to connect with that piece of you. We all have the ability to heal ourselves; however, life challenges can throw that balance off. Though therapy, we can regain our strength and overcome barriers or strengthen areas where we want to grow by actively working on improvement and embracing the process of change.

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.

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.

I have experience working with various issues including but not limited to trauma, substance abuse, anger management, physical abuse, adjustment issues, and divorce. I assist clients in overcoming obstacles that are challenging to overcome in their lives. Additionally, I collaboratively work with clients to improve their overall functioning in their daily lives. I believe in meeting clients where they are in life, while facilitating an environment for change. I am an active listener who is attentive to clients' and their needs and wants. I believe the client is the expert in his or her life.
