Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists in Helotes, TX

Since 2007, I've been working as a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in helping people cope with their issues and concerns. Many clients merely need assistance in gaining insight, direction, self-compassion and developing practical coping skills to manage stress. In this journey, I strive to walk alongside clients with mercy and wisdom to help achieve self-actualization and goals.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Military Veteran. I served thirteen years in the military and found a passion for helping others. Once I received my degree, I knew I was called to work with those who are working through challenging life events, trauma, or relationship difficulties—ultimately empowering them to find their strength and resilience again. I work from a client-centered, holistic approach, believing each person's mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and relational health is intimately intertwined. My typical clients are Military Veterans, or Couples.

A favorite saying of mine is "CHANGE... It's One of Life's Only Constants..." Change often signifies growth. Changes often move us from our comfort zone and may trigger stressful or distressing thoughts, behaviors, emotions or physiological responses. Our responses are often unconscious. Except we consciously recognize increased discomfort, pain or unproductive functioning in our daily roles and relationships. If you or a family member are experiencing any social, emotional, mental or behavioral difficulties causing distress & preventing enjoying life or realizing your or their full potential in personal, work or school functioning, I invite you to call me.

Trauma and loss can leave you feeling disconnected and alone. You may struggle with anger, depression, and self-blame. You may question who you are or your life's purpose. In therapy, I can help you rediscover your strengths and begin to reconnect. I will compassionately guide you through your most difficult experiences to achieve a new sense of self, strength, and peace.

I enjoy working with people from ages 16- 35. These are exciting and challenging times. Many people graduate from high school, go to college, start careers and start families. These are times when people begin to get to know themselves and become their true selves. These transitions can come with unique challenges. Sometimes one's values do not align with their families values, or their talents are not celebrated in their community. It can be very difficult to balance the demands of school, extra-curricular activities and a social life. Also, life doesn't stand still so difficult events like death, divorce and break-ups happen.

Hello! I look forward to creating a therapeutic space with you that is grounded in safety and developed trust. I offer telehealth services to those residing in Texas facing different backgrounds and challenges, with focus on: substance use and addiction, relationships, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, life transitions related to grief and loss, and life transitions related to personal growth. I have also helped those who have experienced trauma in their lives and are seeking a space to feel empowered and free of judgment. My approach to therapy is one with my belief that you are the expert of your own experiences!

Life brings you many challenges. You may be dealing with a roadblock and the future you were planning is no longer possible. Maybe you’ve just experienced a loss, are worrying constantly, or feel like a burden. If you’ve been feeling some of these negative emotions but trying to avoid them, you’re not alone. We all struggle at different times and it can be scary to even start the search for help. Many people feel ashamed or weak for seeking therapy, but I’m here to tell you that you are stronger for it. It takes a lot more courage to start therapy than to continue living in pain.

We provide supportive psychotherapy for patients with a serious illness or injury, who now live with chronic pain and impairment. It is not unusual to experience problems with stress, depression, and anxiety after a medical crisis, and to become isolated from the flow of life. You will be given an individual therapist to support you and help you learn about the specific skills, attitudes, and behaviors that help you slowly but steadily "push back" and regain quality of life.

I work with individuals/couples/families seeking to restore balance and connection within their lives and interpersonal relationships. Unhealthy relationships can cause both emotional and physical stress, whereas healthy relationships can enhance and improve overall well-being. I have trained in a range of modalities in order to provide tailored treatment plan that can be integrated into your daily lives. I provide a non-judgmental, compassionate and supportive environment in which you can safely explore and work through emotions, thoughts and beliefs that may be keeping you from moving forward and living a fulfilling life.

Welcome to Resiliency Trauma and Couples Therapy, PLLC. My name is Beatriz Alaniz and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Texas and also a Texas Board Approved Supervisor. I provide a warm and welcoming environment for clients from all walks of life with a focus on individuals who have experienced trauma and couples wanting to reconnect and heal. The name of my practice is "Resiliency" because I believe in the resiliency of my clients upon meeting them and will work hard to make sure you can see yourselves as the resilient individuals you are.

I have worked in various settings, across all platforms and populations and have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including: depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, addictions (alcohol, drugs, and sexual), OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical and/or sexual trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive counseling.

Each of us has the ability to impact the world in a unique and powerful way and we are all born with the desire to deeply connect with others. Struggles with anxiety, depression, insecurity, burnout and stress can discourage us and keep us from realizing our full potential. Counseling gives you the opportunity to feel seen, heard, understood as well as challenged. It is through therapy that we come to understand ourselves more fully allowing personal growth, self esteem and possibly true satisfaction with the life we are given.

I completed the following degrees, licenses, & certifications to provide comprehensive care for clients: Registered Nurse, Functional Medicine Practitioner, Board-Certified Faith-Based Therapist, Psychology Graduate, Licensed Minister, & Certified Life/Wellness Coach. I am fundamentally motivated to lead others to overcome challenges & odds as I serve them by offering advice, education, treatment & emotional support helping to make an impact that produces positive substantial changes in their lives. In addition, I utilize labs and licensed pharmaceutical-grade nutraceuticals to help my clients achieve better health.
