MHNet Behavioral Health Therapists in San Antonio, TX

Over the years, I have acquired many tools to assist my clients in addressing the challenges associated with mild to extensive trauma, anxiety, adjustment, depression, grief/loss, and attachment issues. My passion is to walk alongside my clients through difficult life transitions and to build their inner strengths to create the life they desire through empathy, self-compassion and authenticity.

I have gained a wide array of experience working with children and adolescents that experience mild to extensive trauma, anxiety, adjustment, and depression. I have experience providing therapy amongst Spanish-speaking populations, children, adolescents, adults, and families. Additionally, I have experience in working with individuals going through immigration issues such as family separation and grief/loss.

The clinical approach I use to counseling is targeted to attend my client's needs. My preference is the Psychodynamic approach where the client and I explore the origins of their psychological discomfort and use the insights to the healing process incorporating changes in the present. Some clients however come to counseling with a sense of urgency, a need to work objectively in a specific problem with the aim of a faster solution focused to their crisis, and in these cases I support and stay present with the client's needs.

Feeling overwhelmed, confused, stressed, lost? Yearn to connect with life, yet, often become stuck? Navigating through life disconnections - with our spirit, families, partners, friends, work - can be exhausting and overwhelming. You have already tried going to your life "toolbox" (faith, family, friends, chocolate...). Together we can explore feelings, figure out how our own inner stories are actually adding to our stress, reconnect with our inner power to experience love, acceptance, and be our authentic self. Asking "How am I ever going to figure out..." is a good starting place. I can walk with you as we try to figure it out.
