Therapists in Alamo Heights, TX

My theoretical orientation is cognitive behavioral. My therapy style is goal oriented, solutions focused. I am a no-nonsense therapist who works to help my clients find solutions to their problems in the most effective, non-intrusive way possible. I also offer Christian/LDS counseling upon request.

At Alba Wellness we are devoted to creating a warm, accepting atmosphere where clients can address important issues and move toward valuable change and growth. We believe that this should be a collaborative process in which clients are provided the tools to meet their therapeutic goals. Our staff is experienced in providing the support needed to address a broad range of subjects.

What do you want from your life? Are you experiencing a fulfilled life? If not, what's in your way and how can we work together to get you there? I help my clients seize what they want from their lives with more health and ease, and with less pain and suffering. My therapy approach is to be a collaborator with you in this process. Psychotherapy should be empowering! You are the expert about your life so far; we start with where you are now, and together through small but powerful shifts, we will create the life you want.

Do you find yourself bottling things up and believe others would not understand? Do you become so stressed at times that you cannot concentrate at work or school, even to point of avoiding loved ones? Periods of uncertainty and trials come into our lives, but its how we choose to deal with that change that impacts our quality of life. If you're feeling confused, overwhelmed, depressed, anxious or lacking a sense of direction, therapy can help you build the strength you need to get through it and be prepared for whatever life throws your way.

I am a Clinical Social Worker and Research Psychologist, dedicated to providing compassionate care and evidence-based interventions for individuals struggling with substance abuse, PTSD, and various mental health disorders. With a unique blend of clinical expertise and research-driven insights, I offer comprehensive therapeutic approaches tailored to meet the diverse needs of each client. Combining the practical skills of a clinical social worker with the analytical mindset of a research psychologist, I bring a holistic perspective to the treatment process. I am committed to fostering healing and empowerment.

Emotional, psychological, and interpersonal/social growth is a continual process of self transformation and change. At points when one feels stuck or confused in that process, or when life just isn't working, it often helps to connect with a therapist. I provide a safe space where you can be, or recover/rediscover, your authentic self; deepen the emotional connection with yourself and others; clarify thoughts, beliefs, and values; consider new ways of being in the world and w/others; develop healthier adaptive strategies for relating to yourself and others; and work through past and/or present griefs and traumas.

Life can be challenging at times, providing clients with the understanding that change is part of life and together we will work together to get through their struggles. Aiding clients with the understanding of living by Faith, to be Known by Love, and to be a Voice of Hope! My counseling practice began as a ministry to fulfill a great need of Christian services. Providing clients with the ability to be healthy, happy and comforted with a belief of hope and peace in a time of need.

Hi there! I'm so glad you are taking this first step in your journey towards healing. I have served children, adolescents, and adults facing issues such as depression, adoption, ADHD, behavior issues, anxiety, suicidality, self-harm, trauma, addiction, infertility, women's issues and abuse,

Do you sense that something undefinable is holding you back from success and happiness in your school, work, or personal life? Our thoughts and actions are often purposeful and useful. Where we falter is when what has worked for us in the past is no longer effective in dealing with our problems. So-called "symptoms" often mask deeper issues in our lives. When these unresolved facets of ourselves are addressed in psychotherapy, we tend to get better. I want to meet you in a genuine and non-judgmental way. My approach is empathetic, playful, and collaborative.

I am a board certified Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is originally from Riverside, California. I moved to Austin, Texas over 5 years ago, solo, on a whim. Once I relocated to a cute countryside home in the outskirts of Seguin, I joined InMindOut providing therapy services to individuals.  I received my bachelor’s as well as master’s degree in social work at San Diego State University in San Diego California.

My theoretical orientation is varied depending on your needs. I help you to formulate your therapy goals in a collaborative fashion. Although therapy can be distressing at times, I often use humor to decrease distress and increase coping skills. In addition, I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) techniques to build resources for positive coping skills. EMDR can help you face uncomfortable emotions, such as anxiety or depression, and reprocess traumatic memories.

Assess. Adapt. Advance. (ONLINE only) I may be a good fit for you if you are an individual or couple struggling with anxiety, trauma from your past, communication problems, anger management, and/or all of the ripple effects these concerns create in our lives. I have 21+ years experience working with military, first responders, and their families. I am a combat Veteran myself and my family is a first responder family, so I personally understand the many challenges these particular lifestyles bring. My philosophy: I want to meet you where you are, recognizing and respecting that it takes courage to reach out in the first place.

Thanks for taking time to view my information. I try to be what I would look for in a psychologist: someone who is tactful, cares about the person, and responds with both knowledge and compassion. You will find me to be interactive. I will not sit silently or simply reflect what you just said. I will let you know my perceptions and discuss research, making suggestions on ways to feel better. I tend to focus both on your emotions and your thoughts. You will do most of the talking, but you will get a genuine reaction from me.

I provide psychotherapy services to both individuals and couples for a variety of reasons. I have assisted clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and stress or need help with anger management, assertiveness, marital discord or maybe need coaching for personal growth and development. I use an integrated practice style that is both strength-based and goal-oriented. Depending on what you want to work on, I may utilize various evidence-based approaches based upon the presenting problem. As long as goals are safe and ethical, my goal is to help you achieve yours in a relaxed and non-judgmental environment.

It's a good time to let go of patterns that don't work anymore. Maybe you have conflict or pain inside. Whatever the symptoms, you know you're not feeling well emotionally. Maybe you and your partner are not getting along or you may feel embarrassed about what you're going through – these issues are always hard to talk about. I'm here to help you get free of the past, and move into a healthy and happy life with fulfilling and rewarding relationships. I specialize in healing options that are designed to help you deal with emotional pain, relationship issues, family conflicts, lifestyle changes and more.

Has your child has started behaving out of character leading you to wonder what they are going through? Perhaps they are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, or anger. Play therapy offers an avenue to gain insight into what your child is struggling with and can help them gain confidence and explore their emotions in a safe environment where they can freely express themselves. I strive to build a therapeutic egalitarian relationship where we work together in order to help resolve the issues you and your family could be struggling with.

Have you decided to make positive changes in your life, relationship, family? Are you feeling stuck or overwhelmed? I can help. I believe that we all have strengths and my job is to help people achieve their goals by using their strengths. Everyone needs support at some point in their lives. Whether it's a loss - death or divorce, relationship distress, difficulty making a big decision, anxiety caused by a life transition, parenting a child experiencing behavioral challenges, no matter what the circumstance, it's okay to talk to someone who is trained to provide support and assistance.
