I understand that making life changes can feel overwhelming. I want to put you at ease and make this as easy as possible. First, I'd like to get to know each other and build trust. I'll explain a variety of therapies that might be a good match for you; people do best when they chose their own treatment. Next, we'll practice new strategies, based in research, to create the life you want. I'll guide you through a process of change tailored to fit your particular identities and background (e.g., race, ethnicity, gender, sexual identity, religious affiliation, US native or non-native, etc.).
I specialize in treating adults with anxiety and trauma, treatments that really do work. These therapies not only help you overcome problems you’re experiencing right now, but I’ll teach you skills to resolve future problem that might come your way, too. While handling emotions in a new way might feel strange, I’ll be there to walk you through the process.
I completed a Ph.D. in counseling psychology at the University of Utah, and fellowship in trauma psychology at the South Texas VA. I live in San Antonio, Texas, where I am a professor at the University of Texas School of Medicine. In my free time, I love fitness and exploring small Texas towns.
