Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC-S
San Antonio, TX 78217
We all need help. Whether it may be learning how to make healthy decisions, reducing anxiety, controlling impulses, learning to assertively communicate or to reduce depressive symptoms. Understanding ourselves, defining our wants and needs can be important in making life-changing choices. In therapy, the goal is to meet you where you are at in life and collaboratively move towards obtaining your goals. Many times we expect immediate results without having to make any internal changes; leaving us unfulfilled, sad and anxious. The changes begin within ourselves to see desired responses from others.

When people ask you how you’re doing, is the first thing you say, “I’m tired but I’m good” but you know you’re really not. Whether at work or in your home life, when anyone needs help or support of any kind, people rely on you because they know they can count on you. You’ve always put everyone else first. But lately you're exhausted you are all the time, you really need to learn to say no and set some boundaries but you don’t even know where to start. The thought of it makes you feel paralyzed with guilt. But showing up for everyone else is taking a toll. You’ve been cycling between being anxious and depressed.

First, I commend you for taking the first step in your healing journey. Life can feel overwhelming when past experiences weigh heavy on your mind and body. Maybe you find yourself stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, struggling to let go of what’s happened or searching for ways to manage the anxiety, sadness, or numbness that follows. Perhaps you’ve been telling yourself to "just push through," but the same feelings and triggers keep coming back. The good news is you don’t have to feel this way forever. Together, we can work toward the healing and freedom you deserve.

Through EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), we create space for regulation, insight, and lasting inner change.
You may appear composed on the outside while feeling anxious, overextended, or disconnected inside. You’ve tried to manage it alone, but something deeper is calling for attention. The people I support are often moving through seasons of anxiety, self-doubt, or disconnection, longing to feel more present and at ease in their bodies, and to move beyond survival mode and reconnect with a sense of meaning, calm, and inner trust.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
