Grief Therapists in Bulverde, TX

I am passionate about my work with my clients. After over 20 years in private practice, I've walked with hundreds of people on their journey through difficulties and obstacles in life to emerge with a new sense of direction, purpose and peace. No matter what you may be struggling with; depression, anxiety/panic, grief , chronic illness/disability, relationship issues or simply feeling a loss of direction and purpose in your life, I would love to help you.

My experience has been centered on anxiety, depression, trauma, sexual abuse and assault, crisis pregnancy, narcissistic abuse, and pregnancy loss (stillbirth, abortion, miscarriage). While these experiences seem overwhelming, therapy is a great way to help you identify main issues and themes, set goals, and learn coping skills to help you move forward. I enjoy working with individuals as well as couples, and seeing them grow and move forward towards their goals.

Sometimes we can feel like we are struggling in life, not fulfilling our purpose, or are unhappy with current circumstances. Through our counseling journey, I will walk alongside of you to find what's impeding your happiness, gratification, purpose, and well-being.

In a welcoming and judge-free environment, we will look at the challenges you face, your thoughts and ideas surrounding your circumstances, and the feelings that you are experiencing. We will use open and honest communication throughout our counseling journey.

My training as a healer began with my own in-depth psychotherapy. Subsequently, I have worked with adults, teens and kids in the areas of substance and sexual abuse, depression and anxiety, fear and grief . I attended a six months professional training program in DreamTending at Pacifica Graduate Institute where I deepened my understanding of archetypal medicine and indigenous methods of healing through the use of dreams and all that surrounds us in the natural world. My approach is holistic, helping my clients integrate mind, body and spirit.

Each person has an innate ability to manage their lives; however, sometimes they become overwhelmed and need help to tap into that natural ability. I can help you turn confusion into clarity and lead a more successful life. I invite you to step into my office, modeled much like my living room. You will feel like a guest in my home; safe, accepted, and relaxed. This encourages the process of healing and change. I understand how difficult starting this journey may be. Setting the appointment is the first step!

If you are reading this, you are searching for help. Allow me to speak candidly to you. I have been trained to help and I believe that the therapist and the client are a team. Every individual is unique but we all have needs. When these needs are not met the result, many times, can be emptiness, depression, anger or even hopelessness. I don't just sat in a chair with a pad and pen and ask you to "tell me more". I am a listener not a judge often interjecting questions and insights that you may not have considered. My passion is helping others. Let us meet where you are and together we work to get where you want to be.

Life is too difficult of a journey to navigate alone. We all need trusted people to help us navigate the ups, the downs, and the winding road we travel in life. I believe that while on your journey through life, having an available, trusted guide to come alongside you, to point you toward truth, to listen with compassion, and to empower you to live the most full and free version of life that you were meant to live is vital. I love having the opportunity to come alongside people who are struggling with life or relationships and help them discover the hope and healing that is available to them.

Emotional health difficulties are like a cold, everyone gets them from time to time. However, if the cold goes on for weeks or keeps on getting worse, you should probably see a healthcare professional. This is true for our emotional health as well. If we want to be healthy, we have to take care of ourselves: body, mind and soul. Psychotherapy is medical treatment and care intended to relieve or heal the soul. It is a journey of self-discovery, personal growth, healing and wholeness. I have 20 years of experience supporting and guiding clients in a variety of areas including mental health, health care, disability and family services.

I specialize in addiction counseling and trauma therapy. I work with many adults, young adults, and families. I am a certified EMDR therapist and have studied complex trauma and structural dissociation.
