Psychologist, PsyD

San Antonio, TX 78229
Welcome! Congratulations on investing in your mental health. Choosing the right psychologist is important and I encourage you to be selective—ask questions, explore your options, and find the best fit for you. I treat all ages, though I specialize in working with police and public safety personnel, systemic therapy (couples and families), and adolescents. Coming from a "blue family," I have a deep passion for counseling and supporting first responders. My clients often describe me as genuine, humble, and easy to talk to. I take a strength-based approach to therapy, focusing on practical solutions to address challenges effectively.

Waitlist for new clients
If you’re reading this, pause for a moment. Well done! It takes courage to even consider therapy, especially if you’re used to being the “strong one”. Many people come in carrying the pain of invisible wounds. The kind that don’t show on the outside but shape how you move through the world. Pain that gets hidden, minimized, or handled alone because others depend on you, or because it feels safer not to burden anyone else. We will explore the stories that shaped you, understand where stress, shame, or survival roles took hold, and how they may still be running the show. And I do more than just listen.

Renew your mind. Transform your life. Imagine carrying the weight of unspoken stress, past wounds, or roles that never gave you space to pause and breathe. Maybe you’re an everyday person showing up for others but feeling unseen yourself—a man who's always had to “be strong,” an elder navigating life transitions, a faith-filled woman wrestling with doubt or disappointment, or someone simply tired of just getting by. You want peace in your mind, healing in your relationships, and clarity about who you are and where you’re going. You’re not asking for perfect—you’re asking to feel whole, seen, and equipped to move forward.
