Therapists in Vance Jackson, San Antonio, TX

I have been working with people experiencing PTSD, Depression/Anxiety. Drug Addiction, Bipolar Disorder, and Family issues... My general position is that our emotions serve a purpose, (like a check engine light on the dashboard of a car). After we check and repair the engine, the light goes out... If the issue remains unchecked and unrepaired, the light gets stronger and more insistent... I will work hand-in-hand with Psychiatrists, Psychologists, and MD's, if needed. However, I believe that the use of meds is only one step on the road to recovery.

Hello and welcome to my page! My name is Steph, and I'm a licensed professional counselor passionate about serving the community! I first served as a case manager until fully licensed, learning about not only how to address a client’s mental health needs but for everything from resource assistance to medication stability.

Going through difficult times in life does not have to be done alone. Change does not happen overnight. Sometimes, when we bring our concerns to others, they might be minimized and it can be hard to find someone to talk to. Having a safe space to openly communicate about our problems, learn about them, and overcome them can help. I am here to help you learn about you, what your needs are, what you want in your life, and empower you on your journey. I specialize in LGBTQIA+ issues, couples/relationships, depression, anxiety, grief, ADHD, and others.

Hello, I am Kelly Clarke, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I have a passion for helping adolescents and young adults. I also have experience working with adults, children, families and couples in residential and outpatient settings.

My practice is focused on working with young adults to navigate this stage of life's challenges, including identity exploration, higher education & career, relationships, and family changes. With so many unique changes and choices, our stress and emotions can become difficult to handle on our own. You may be feeling in need of new coping skills, a deeper understanding of and healing from past experiences, or more clarity on who you are and what you want your life to look like.

I primarily work with children, adolescents and young adults. I have experience working with children in special education and have life experience as a mother to a child with intellectual and physical disabilities. For scheduling please call (210) 538-6335

Hi, my name is Brettny (pronounced BRIT-nee).

On our journey through life we all face challenges. We may be dealing with grief issues, relationship issues, or need help with communicating more effectively. We may feel overwhelmed, anxious, trapped, confused, alone, fearful, depressed, frustrated, stuck, burdened, and unhappy. I have always been fascinated by how people change, learn, and grow. I believe that given the right context, such as a safe, stimulating, and nurturing environment, people can make the changes they need to make to live a happier, more productive and positive life. Given the right tools, everyone has the capacity to engineer their life in a healthier way.

My goal is to provide an empathetic ear and therapeutic interventions to help you find cohesiveness and balance.

We will focus on the present moment – getting honest and vulnerable about your current patterns, curious about the past and how those experiences impact you now, and influence the future by incorporating new skills and goals. My role is to walk with you through your highs and lows, challenge, and encourage you.
