Reality Therapy in Helotes, TX

Life is hard sometimes, don't walk alone! Everyone struggles with the demands of life on occasion and I am here to help my clients discover strengths and learn strategies needed to live your best life. I love to work with children, adolescents and adults navigating life transitions including adjusting to a new career, family changes, or even a new school year.

Reaching out for help can be one of the most difficult things an individual can do, especially when feeling a loss of clarity while being unregulated. Life's many challenges can grab a hold of you, toss you around, and make you feel like you've lost yourself. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate and my goal is to partner alongside you to help you be the best version of yourself. I approach each client holistically, taking into account all of life’s aspects and how they can impact your situation and emotions. My desire is for you to have the tools that enable you to take control of your health, wellness, and hope.

Thank you for taking the first step in seeking help. Sometimes taking this first step is the hardest for most people to take, so congratulations! My hope is to provide you with a safe place to work on whatever symptoms or concerns you are currently dealing with. I have been in the field for over 15 years and have worked with an array of populations. My experience is in the areas of trauma, PTSD, ADHD, adolescents (at-risk youth), relationship issues, divorce, and law enforcement issues.

Thank you for visiting my site. Currently, I am a full-time school counselor and work part-time as an LPC. I have 18 years of school counseling experience with children ages 4-18 years. It is difficult being a child, teen and young adult experiencing trauma, divorce, depression, anxiety, behavioral concerns, or just trying to figure out your identity. As a counselor, it’s important to get the professional help you need during traumatic life events, life stressors, or even self-acceptance. We will work together to find solutions, develop realistic goals, and work through the underlying issues through therapy.

Our Practice It is our belief and experience that you will get more out of your life if you are willing to change. Change is spurred by a feeling that something just isn't quite right, that something could be better, that there's an issue you want to resolve. Therapy is an important step in discovering the world around you and finding your place in it. Our focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. We achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan.
