Therapists in San Antonio, TX

Are you struggling with grief, hopelessness, anxiety, relationship issues, and life in general and want to move toward purpose? Are you looking for a therapist who accepts you as you are, but also provides guidance where needed and is honest and authentic? Then, we might work well together. My ideal client is a person of any age, gender, abilities, race, heritage, sexual orientation, and belief system who is looking to heal from grief or trauma and wants to move from pain to purpose. I work holistically, use EMDR, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Tapping, IADC and parts work, and consider somatic aspects.

Sometimes it feels like there are mountains in front of us preventing us from moving forward. These experiences may steal our energy and discourage even the most resilient person. Counseling can help. The majority of my clinical experience is in working with survivors who've experienced multilayered trauma, individuals struggling with complicated and unresolved grief and loss concerns, disenfranchised grief, and individuals dealing with relational and attachment issues. Many of my client's struggle with anxiety and are working through vulnerability difficulties with themselves and others.

Empathy, trust, shared presence. My belief is the process of therapy helps bring self-awareness to the strengths that one may not realize they have. Being human, we all face challenges and obstacles, but with non-judgmental support and understanding, inner strengths may flourish to face life's stressors in healthier, productive ways.

Life can throw you unanticipated curve balls. When that happens life can feel overwhelming and sometimes leave us feeling shaken or alone. I'm here to help. If you want to talk through life's challenges, find your direction or you desire to make a positive change I would love to connect with you. In my years of practice there are a few things I know, change can be difficult, addiction can be overcome and hearts can heal from deep wounds that can sometimes leave a scar. It takes time to heal and find inner peace and joy. With the right people by your side healing is always possible. Reach out today and lets get something scheduled.

Hi, I'm Swapomthi. I know beginning therapy can be overwhelming. It can also be one of the best decisions you make to put yourself and your mental health first. Yes I'm a therapist, but I'm also a woman of color, a mother, a first-generation American, and a person who has experienced loss. All these roles have shaped how I see the world and how I approach counseling. I work hard to create a nurturing and supportive space to help you feel at ease as we start this process of therapy. I believe that you are your own best expert and we can walk this path towards wellness together.

Be very careful of the narratives that shape your identity, as they can ultimately define your reality. Narratives have a powerful influence on how we interpret our experiences and guide our actions. Unfortunately, an unhelpful narrative can limit our choices, obscure alternative options, and impede personal growth, leading to a sense of insurmountable problems. Therefore, it is crucial to examine the stories we tell ourselves and reshape them to live a more liberated and meaningful life.

Are you feeling depressed, anxious, or stuck from losing someone or something you love, and not sure how to move forward? Do you struggle with anger, bitterness, or resentment, and can not figure out the root of the problem? Have you lost your joy, peace, and motivation for life, and find it difficult to love and trust others. Welcome! You have arrived at a great place to receive help. I am here to serve and be a guide to your mental, emotional, and spiritual journey. I am passionate about helping individual's process grief, transition through loss, regain hope, and discover their purpose in life.

Life is a journey comprised of various relationships which are often challenged by change. Changes in relationships are often overwhelming and cause stress, anxiety, quilt, grief, or trauma. The diagnosis of a life-limiting illness, a death, being the caregiver for someone with a chronic illness, dealing with end-of-life issues, or divorce at times is overwhelming and frustrating. During these experiences, it is important to have someone who will listen to understand your experience. I have training and experience in companioning those who are navigating a stressful time in a relationship changed by loss or illness.

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.

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.

You want to appear strong and like you are holding everything together, but deep down you are struggling to feel overwhelmed, sad, tearful due to the loss of a loved one, a divorce or a life transition. You may be fed up with feeling like you have to appear to have it together or feeling alone and lost. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to stop feeling overwhelmed . You’re ready to take steps to feel engaged in life. Most of all, you’re ready to learn how to face the future on this new path you are on.

Are you feeling stuck and unsure of where to turn next? Life can be difficult to navigate through its ups and downs. Many times individuals are simply lacking specific tools to be able to navigate through the turbulence. Sometimes life has been so overwhelming for so long that it seems impossible to even begin. At any of these points in your journey, it helps to know that you aren't alone and that many have traveled similar paths before you.

Maybe you are overwhelmed, physically and emotionally exhausted, and constantly worrying. Maybe you feel alone, lost, and numb, wondering if you'll ever feel "normal" again. Please know that you are not alone. Seeking help and showing vulnerability to someone you don't know can feel intimidating, but it marks the beginning of your mental health journey!
