Emotionally Focused Therapists in Kerrville, TX

Navigating the complexities of a relationship is never easy, especially when dealing with cultural differences, infidelity, or ongoing conflicts. I am here to offer compassionate and effective support through these challenging times. My goal is to help you, and your partner not just survive but thrive, rediscovering the strength and connection that brought you together in the first place. I specialize in working with culturally diverse couples, understanding that each relationship is uniquely shaped by its cultural context. In addition to couples therapy, I offer individual therapy to support personal growth.

In our work together, you will create or re-connect with a life worth living. You will come to see emotions—even the painful emotions of anger, sadness, and guilt—as signals that something needs your attention rather than something to be avoided. You will gain an understanding of who you are and how you are, which will facilitate personal changes you may want to make or help you navigate challenges you are facing. And maybe most importantly, you will strengthen your relationship with yourself and with others.

As a psychologist, I strive to develop relationships with people that will allow them to make changes in their lives as quickly as possible. I believe that each one of us is in charge of the story of our lives and because of this we have the power to change our lives for the better. Through a gentle, firm, and compassionate approach you will find resolution to life's challenges in a way that will bring peace,support, understanding,and direction.

Often we face many challenges in our lives and need an outlet to figure out the road we will take on this next journey. Dealing with depression and anxiety can add to our level of stress. I have successful experience working with adults and older adults dealing with depression and anxiety, grief and loss, stress, divorce, family and care giving issues. With my previous experience working in hospitals and psychiatric hospitals for adults and older adults I bring skills to help you develop coping strategies as you might face these challenges.

I love working with adults, couples, and families who are seeking treatment for substance abuse, eating disorders, and trauma. I also enjoy working with couples who are looking to work through any relational and sexual issues.

The individual experiencing depression, anxiety, addiction, anger, and\or relationship issues is the individual I enjoy working with. I am stoked working with an individual ready to look seriously into the root of the problem\s and follow suggested recommendations in order to make changes in her\his life.

I specialize in grief, divorce, abuse, adoption, military issues, PTSD, depression, anxiety, anger, personality disorders, and adjustments associated with life's negative experiences. I work with adults both in individual or couples' counseling. Iam trained in Acceptance Commitment Therapy and in trauma focus interventions.

Challenged with cumulative stress, anxiety, addictions, or PTS? Perhaps medications are not enough and you want to function better at home, work, & in relationships. Maybe you carry shame/guilt due to behaviors or dysregulated mood and attention and are looking for compassion with direct yet gentle guidance to engage your internal wisdom for self-healing. We all struggle at times in our lives, some times harder than others. Having a seasoned professional counselor, with lived experience, who can listen, authentically empathize, and provide accountability, can help you regain energy, stability, and confidence to do and be your best.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I serve adults with a myriad of different needs. I have experience working with clients who have anxiety disorders, major depression, bipolar disorder, autism spectrum, ADD/ADHD, insomnia, relationship issues, endured trauma, and more. Every person's journey is different, and his or her challenges are unique; therefore, I use a variety of techniques to meet each person's needs. I have received training in several different modalities, such as CBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, DBT, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). I specialize in individual counseling for adults.

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.

As a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist I work with individuals, couples, and families. Integrating advances in applied neuroscience, I provide Neurofeedback as an alternative, and drug-free treatment for ADD/ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, traumatic brain injury, migraines, sports and academic performance, and a wide variety of other issues. I offer Neurofeedback in the course of therapy, or as a stand alone treatment. I am also certified in ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), a trauma resolution therapy. My therapeutic approaches are individually designed to assist clients in reaching their specific goals.

Sometimes whatever is going on has something to with “stuff” from the past. When that happens I believe we tend to get stuck in unhelpful patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving in our present and impacts our relationship with others and even ourselves. People I work with generally are looking to feel fully alive and free in the present without being bogged down from the past. A lot of my people are looking for encouragement, guidance and someone to be their cheer leader.

Life can be hard. Whether it is transitioning from one phase of life to another or financial and work stressors there is always something that we have to learn to cope with and it can be very easy to start feeling overwhelmed and stuck. I believe every experience in life has a purpose. Nothing happens by chance. Failure, conflict or ending a relationship isn't meant to break us but to provide valuable lessons for us to learn, grow, gain insight, become stronger and live happier. I can support and guide you in your search for inner strength needed to regain your sense of control, purpose and joy.

In my therapy I specialize in PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, and Substance Abuse. Many of these centers of pain are common in women who are suffering from domestic violence, sexual assault and abuse, or addiction. Whether your pain is from a lifetime of trauma, or from a single, life-changing event, the tools I can give you will help you get to moving forward. If you feel like you’re losing the battle, and you don’t know where to go next, I can help you find peace and relief!
