Relationship Issues Therapists in Georgetown, TX

Feeling safe on our own and feeling connected with others is the key to both our happiness and success; it can also be one of the most challenging things we do in our lives. I have spent my career working with a wide variety of individuals to support them in learning strategies to get their needs met in healthy ways. I specialize in working on attachment issues and relationship issues for both children and adults. In our time together, we would work to develop a treatment plan including setting goals and agreeing on interventions to help you to achieve those goals to live a more fulfilling and satisfying life.

Anxiety and OCD can feel completely overwhelming physically, mentally, and emotionally, and can make everyday life very challenging. Maybe you're avoiding things you used to enjoy, feeling like you're not yourself, withdrawing from others, or feeling discouraged, unmotivated, or depressed. You may be experiencing panic attacks, or worrying much more than you'd like. Perhaps your relationships are being impacted by anxiety; you may be feeling burnt out or having difficulty connecting with others. The good news is that it is possible to live life with greater peace, and I'd love to help!

My passion and drive come from my experience of growing up in a blended family. Learning how to grow and embrace my new meaning of family and how to communicate through conflict. Now, as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I have experience with a wide variety of clientele and the circumstances they face. I work with individuals, couples, and families. I take a collaborative approach with my clients to identify issues and then work towards their therapeutic goals. I take a nonjudgmental stance and strive to provide a safe space for clients to feel comfortable in sharing their experiences.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Art Therapist in San Antonio, TX. I hold a Master’s degree in Art Therapy/Counseling from Southwestern College in Santa Fe, NM with specialized classes in Children’s Mental Health. I work with individual children, teens, families and adults. I have worked with a variety of populations and settings including inpatient and outpatient care, residential facilities, and hospital settings centralized in trauma-informed care.

Do you feel like your relationship is stuck? Or like every conversation turns into the same fight over and over? Does it feel like a recent life change messed up a good thing? Maybe your relationship with your kid is getting harder and harder. Or your kid’s just a ‘turd.’ Does it sometimes feel like your emotions are controlling you? The good news is, these feelings are very common. Most of us get stuck in patterns that seem to get in the way of where we want to go. We develop those patterns without even noticing; one day we just notice things aren’t like we want them to be.

Discouraged? Upset? Frustrated with where your life is currently? Needing support to help you go in a different direction? Feeling stuck, helpless and alone? I am here to help. I can meet you where you are and begin to plan for what you need to do when you are ready. Maybe it is starting the journey of change or keeping you on a path. I am particularly drawn to those going through any type of life transition and who want deeper personal relationships with God, themselves, and others.

Although anxiety can be helpful for us in our daily life, too much anxiety can make it more challenging for us to live the life we want. Other life difficulties can also feel like obstacles that need to be overcome. We can feel overwhelmed and powerless in those moments. Know that in these hard times, you are absolutely brave. You are also not alone. If you are interested in wanting more support with these challenges in a safe and open-minded environment, you have come to the right place!

My heart breaks when I see couples who are stuck and running out of hope. "What's going on?" "The world says we're supposed to be okay being alone, but I feel miserable and alone." "What happened to us?" "How did we get here?" "We were never supposed to be those ‘other couples’." Relationships can become painful and unsettling. And so disappointing. The good news is relationship injuries can be repaired. And, you can have the hopes and dreams you’ve long since dismissed as a pleasant fantasy.

Welcome! Embarking on a therapeutic journey can be a daunting step, especially when it involves opening up and being vulnerable with someone new. My primary objective is to establish a nurturing and trust-filled relationship with my clients. Within this space, I aim to offer support, humor, authenticity, and, most importantly, the freedom to express one's complete self without fear of judgment. My therapeutic philosophy is firmly grounded in the principles of social justice, recognizing the profound impact that society, an individual's environment, and support systems can have on one's life journey.

Life is changing every day. Before you know it another week or month has passed by. I encourage you to grow, adapt, and be the best you. You have to decide what you want your life to look like. No one else can do that for you. Once you figure that out, I'll help you get there. Or get through whatever you're going through right now in the healthiest way possible. I focus on you. What works for one person doesn't work for everyone; I don't believe in a cookie cutter approach to therapy. Don't wait to figure it out, or get through it, live your best life now.

Life doesn't look the way you expected it to, like no matter what you do, things never feel quite right.

I will help you discover and unload the sources of pain, shame and fear that drive these patterns within you. As you separate from these extreme emotions and thoughts, you will learn to tap into your calm, centered, confident self and reconnect with yourself in a new meaningful way!

Currently relocating offices. Please have patience while I transition to a new office... It takes a lot of courage to reach out and get help. I want this to be an easy process for you.

I have an easy going demeanor with the values of great patience, empathy and a nurturing spirit. I would love to listen to you, help you problem solve and find the greatest version of yourself.

Every person has a voice...and that voice is important and deserves to be heard. I want to hear your voice. I want to hear what you have to say, regardless of where you are in your life's journey or where you've been.

Everybody is going through something. We all have our own stories to tell, issues we need to face, and storms we have to go through. I want to come alongside you and help you find healing in your circumstances whatever they may be. If you have experienced trauma, have unresolved pain or are struggling with current issues, I want to help you process those things in a healthy, therapeutic way to resolve the negative emotions and behaviors tied to them. Through grief and loss, depression, anxiety or marital problems, I am here to help you find healing, comfort and strength within yourself to overcome and move forward.

Everyone expects you to keep it together, but lately it feels like it’s never enough. You strive so hard to be faithful, to trust that God has a plan, but inside you are falling apart. Even though you’re rarely alone, you feel lonely and invisible. Your relationships are filled with frustration, worry, and guilt. Painful memories keep pulling you back to the past. Your Christian faith is so important to you, but lately you have more questions than answers. Where is God in all of this? Is my faith strong enough?
