My Approach

This is a space to step out of survival mode and begin reconnecting with yourself. Maybe that looks like burnout that will not go away, anxiety that keeps cycling, emotional numbness, or relationship patterns that leave you feeling stuck. Many of my clients come in exhausted, juggling responsibilities while quietly wondering who they are outside of all the roles they have carried. I work with adults and teens in San Antonio and across Texas who are ready to feel more grounded, more regulated, and less overwhelmed. Whether you are navigating trauma, chronic stress, or the emotional effects of caregiving or spiritual deconstruction, therapy with me is paced, collaborative, and personalized to your nervous system. We will move at a rhythm that feels safe for your body and meaningful for your healing.

​

I use a blend of EMDR, somatic therapy, DBT, mindfulness strategies, and inner child work to support trauma recovery and emotional clarity. My approach to trauma therapy and anxiety treatment is client-centered and sustainable, focusing on building awareness, capacity, and coping tools that actually work in everyday life. This is not about fixing you, it is about helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself that have been working hard to survive. If you have been in survival mode for too long, this is a space where you can finally exhale. My style is compassionate and direct. I will sit with you in the hard moments while also offering gentle challenges that help you grow.

​

My approach combines neuroscience, depth, and clarity to help clients thrive, not just cope. I have led clinical teams and built trauma informed programs rooted in nervous system regulation, resilience, and connection. When stress, anxiety, or trauma remain in your system for too long, it is easy to feel like you are always on. As your therapist, I help you slow down, name what is happening internally, and create space to respond instead of react. Together we untangle what feels heavy and rebuild a sense of safety. For clients who desire it, I also integrate faith and meaning into the work, honoring the ways spirituality can strengthen the healing process. Above all, I believe therapy should feel collaborative, safe, and practical. This is not one size fits all therapy, but thoughtful, culturally responsive counseling designed for real life change.
