My ideal clients are those who show a willingness to have me walk beside them and hold their pain as they seek clarification on the emotions that drive their distress. By seeking treatment to address relationship issues, they discover that other aspects of their experience are influenced by their powerful need to connect with their significant others. I am best suited to treating marital distress and disconnection between teens and their parents.

I’m an experienced counselor with advanced training in trauma and
emotionally focused
couples therapy.
You love each other but it feels like your relationship is stuck in a rut. Maybe you have the same fights over and over. You try to bring up important conversations but always end up disconnected. You’re scared of what might happen if something doesn’t change. Old wounds or traumas are starting to crop up and threaten your relationship. You’ve already tried everything you know to do. You have attempted some conversations, gone on date night, and maybe even read books or listened to podcasts. Now, things are at the point where you know you need professional help. It's not too late to turn things around and reconnect.

Emotionally Focused Therapists
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an approach to therapy that helps clients identify their emotions, learn to explore and experience them, to understand them and then to manage them. San Antonio Emotionally Focused Therapy embraces the idea that emotions can be changed, first by arriving at or 'living' the maladaptive emotion (e.g. loss, fear or shame) in session, and then learning to transform it. Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples seeks to break the negative emotion cycles within relationships, emphasizing the importance of the attachment bond between couples, and how nurturing of the attachment bonds and an empathetic understanding of each others emotions can break the cycles.
