Hey guys! I aim to put myself out of a job with each client. I am a counselor who considers the development of a strong therapeutic relationship to be the centerpiece of my treatment. I provide both short-term and long-term counseling to a diverse group of clients.

It's a great first step to start therapy and I'm here to make it an easy, stress-free process.

As a first-generation migrant, my rich cultural background and personal experiences drive my deep commitment to advocating for and empowering individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds. My approach to counseling is from a collaborative, inclusive, culture affirming, anti-oppressive lens, integrating trauma informed care and a collectivistic perspective.

While serving as the director and staff psychologist for over 14 years at the Counseling Service at the University of Texas Health Science Center, I had the opportunity to work with individuals presenting with wide range of presenting issues. The decision to seek psychotherapy is one that takes much courage and can positively change the current path of your life. While largely influenced by cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and person-centered theories, I believe strongly in the need to tailor my interventions to meet the specific needs of my clients.

I have experience with person-centered and cognitive behavioral therapy. I have worked with anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. I tailor each session for the client’s benefit and strive to create a safe space to set goals and make progress.

Hola! Hello! My name is Jessica Sanchez, I am a proud first-generation U.S. citizen. I graduated from Texas State University with my Bachelor’s in Psychology and from the University of Texas at San Antonio with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Previously, I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in a variety of settings with a person-centered and goal directed approach. I enjoy practicing solution focused, mindfulness, art and play techniques to explore different avenues to success.

My job is to help people live happier lives. My office is a continuing education service for all who enter. The goal for me, and hopefully for the person I am working with, is to learn from each other through the change agent of conversation. After 40 years of experience, my belief is that humans never really change until what they have done is working anymore, is broken, and/or gone. Thus change begins with loss, some small and some life ending. At these moments of transition, learning how to let go is the lesson, whether we like it or not. Whatever big change you are going through, positive or negative begins with an ending.

You are NOT damaged. You do NOT need to be fixed. You were HURT and need to HEAL. Pain and big life changes can leave you feeling broken and disconnected from your true self. Would you like to stop second guessing yourself or worrying? Would you like to find a way to finally "get over it" without being triggered all the time? Would you like to understand what is going on under the surface that contributes to unwanted patterns in your relationships with self and others that are not serving you. I can help! I provide a sacred space to learn more about you and help you sort out these issues of the heart. Together, we create a plan

I believe that everyone can grow with support, insight and the development of new skills to lead a happier and more fulfilling life. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over thirty years of experience working with older adolescents and adults. Deciding to seek counseling is often the most difficult part in this process. It takes courage to face your issues or relationship struggles and reach out for help. I can help you to work through difficult and challenging situations.

I am an LMFT with a specialty in trauma. Trauma has many layers and degrees, and I believe that trauma is completely subjective to the person experiencing it. I particularly enjoy working with first responders, high-conflict couples, and individuals dealing with past trauma. I am a Christian counselor; however, I recognize that everyone's faith journey is different, and I respect that. As an LMFT, I look at all issues from a systems perspective and add that to neuroscience knowledge to help normalize responses. The hope is to identify and change patterns for more effective relationships.

You may be nervous just thinking about starting the therapy process. So here's a little bit about how I do therapy. I specialize in Christian counseling and play therapy, as well as using expressive/sandtray therapy in sessions. What does this mean? It means that I believe it's super helpful to use many things within the therapy context. The image of sitting on a couch talking is not the only way counseling services are provided. Therapy can include using your faith to understand how to do things differently. It can also include using forms of creativity (art, sandtray) to identify points of being stuck and find new ways to heal!
