We all have an inherent desire for growth, even though the path may be difficult; we want the best for ourselves, our children, our marriage and our career. At Brent Wheeler Therapy, I work with clients in the San Antonio area, TX to assist them with that growth. My goal is to help them learn skills to manage  emotional conflicts, stressors, etc. that inhibit them from prospering and being happy. We accept Aetna, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Humana, Signa, United Healthcare/Optum, Cenpatico, Medicaid, Military and Tricare, as well as most other insurances.

Change is hard, but worth it. Clients can expect an empathic and caring, but no-nonsense, approach to tackling issues. I specialize in Military/Veteran issues, anxiety and trauma treatment to clients residing anywhere in TX, NC & AK. No travel required! I provide a non-judgmental atmosphere that enables frank, honest discussions that promote change. I have a good history with clients seeking out initial care as well as those who have been unsuccessful with other therapists. I do not accept insurance, as I believe care should be authentic and person-centered without coding or billing guidelines dictating care.

No one should feel alone when experiencing pain. I am passionate about walking alongside people on their healing journey. I meet you where you are, create a personalized care plan, and encourage you every step of the way as you develop skills that can be used in many seasons of life.

I specialize in working with teens who are struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, school related issues and substance abuse. Your teen can expect to acquire tools needed to gain a sense of control, manage difficult emotions, and feel more confident in their relationships, friendships, and decision-making process.

I enjoy working with people from ages 16- 35. These are exciting and challenging times. Many people graduate from high school, go to college, start careers and start families. These are times when people begin to get to know themselves and become their true selves. These transitions can come with unique challenges. Sometimes one's values do not align with their families values, or their talents are not celebrated in their community. It can be very difficult to balance the demands of school, extra-curricular activities and a social life. Also, life doesn't stand still so difficult events like death, divorce and break-ups happen.

We all have many unique connections in our lives, although not all are happy and healthy. Therapy offers you a neutral, comfortable and safe opportunity to explore these connections with others and within yourself. With that information, you are able to improve the use of your strengths to become better prepared to overcome challenges and reach your goals! It can be helpful to explore the relationships of thoughts, feelings and behavior to reach the optimal results. Your unique connections and perspective will help guide us on the path to symptom relief as we explore strategies you can utilize on a regular basis.

I work with adults ages 19+. I have experience working with individuals, couples, and groups. I am a trauma based, and focused clinician. As a trauma informed clinician I work well with many groups of individuals that have experienced forms of trauma at different or constant points in their lives. I specialize in working with active military, veterans, first responders, and those with cooccurring disorders. I have experience with diverse populations and am multiculturally informed. I am curious of your lived experience. Although it may be the source of the pain you carry unseen, I believe in it we can also find your place to heal.

In life we experience unpleasant moments during our journey with ups and downs; sometimes it can feel more overwhelming rather than positive. It might look like dissolving relationships personal or professional, difficulty expressing emotions, or anger getting the best of you. It could be spending too much time in your head than living in the moment and missing out in life.

My passion is to help people see and be their best versions. I am a Veteran and know my strengths lay with Veterans and First Responders, but my skills can assist anyone that is in need. My focus has been trauma and addiction. I believe the client is the expert and I am a team member that collaborate with client, and medication management team to assist in the best path forward.

I enjoy helping clients of any age relieve stress and negative energy and become more effective in relationships and the art of living. I work with each persons specific goals towards a more holistic life.

I help you gain control over difficult issues QUICKLY to feel happier, healthier, and more fulfilled. First, we need the right understanding of the issue ... then I use research-based approaches to maximize benefit in as few sessions as possible. Many of my clients are high-functioning, working professionals who are experiencing symptoms they just can't shake - we work together to solve that and get you back to feeling good in your life. Even just 1 session of good therapy should feel very helpful.

I work with individuals/couples/families seeking to restore balance and connection within their lives and interpersonal relationships. Unhealthy relationships can cause both emotional and physical stress, whereas healthy relationships can enhance and improve overall well-being. I have trained in a range of modalities in order to provide tailored treatment plan that can be integrated into your daily lives. I provide a non-judgmental, compassionate and supportive environment in which you can safely explore and work through emotions, thoughts and beliefs that may be keeping you from moving forward and living a fulfilling life.

I have been a licensed clinician since 1988. I started working with families in 1984. I have worked with clients as young as two and as mature as their nineties. I love working with couples, families, children, and teens; helping families with the challenges of adolescence and parenting. I work with couples recovering from infidelity and those desiring to strengthen their relationships. I work with PTSD, and Dissociative Disorders. I am trained in hypnotherapy, CBT, DBT, Integrative Holistic Therapy and EMDR. I was fortunate to complete my EMDR training (Levels I and II) with Francine Shapiro, PhD, EMDR's originator, in 1994.

I am LCSW therapist with Cerebral and I have been with them for 2 years. I also currently work with Better Help and Rula. I take Aetna, Cigna and Optum insurances with Rula. I have focused my practice on clients with ADHD, depression and anxiety with the understanding that with those comes other mental health struggles. I want to be able to work with you so that you are able to feel validated and lead the life that you want to live with tools and coping skills. "You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them". Maya Angelou

I am a collaboratively oriented counselor. I believe that successful change is dependent on your enthusiastic participation in the process. I see myself as a sort of guide and someone who can offer alternative perspectives which may lead you to new ways of thinking about and acting on your circumstances. I believe that ultimately you contain the solutions to the things you bring to therapy. I will do my best to help you access those solutions and find your best possible outcome.
