In Person Therapists in Kerrville, TX

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.

I am a clinical psychologist providing psychological diagnosis, evaluation, and brief therapy in Boerne, Texas. Correct diagnosis and assessment can improve your life! You can understand yourself better, boost your academic performance, stimulate work success, deepen your relationships, and even improve your physical health. Brief therapy gives us time to explore treatment recommendations, dissolve resistance to change, target specific problems, or adopt new skills. I also help with emotional challenges of physical illnesses, like diabetes, chronic pain, or autoimmune disorders.

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.

Many of us struggle on a daily basis with intrusive thoughts caused by traumatic memories, stress, shame, and/or loss of meaning and purpose. We are often left feeling anxious or depressed, angry, and disconnected from the world as we try to make sense of our experiences. If you're like most of us, you've likely learned to cope through addiction, codependency, and mental or physical illness. Yet, you're also keenly aware that your experiences have the potential to transcend pain by creating meaning. The search for meaning gives rise to understanding, and with understanding comes healing.

Pain arrives unasked. Often it comes and goes, but there are seasons when we feel “stuck” in suffering and unable to move forward. Do you have overwhelming anxiety or depression you can’t seem to shake? Do you have teenagers struggling with anxiety, social difficulties, and questions of identity? Through the counseling process, my intention is to help you build a heart of resiliency. One that possesses greater wholeness and confidence in your ability to navigate any and all turns of life. My aim is that you will develop skills to change the things you can, acceptance of what cannot, and develop greater hope for the future.

Whether you are going through a difficult life transition, and or having relationship problems; dealing with them alone can be challenging. There might have been a time in your life when you knew how to cope, yet you feel stuck about what to do? We're born intrinsically resourceful and resilient, yet life circumstances can change how we feel about ourselves or even cope? Whether experiencing feelings of doubt, fear, I hope I can help you find your way back. The process of counseling is the bringing of new awareness on what is keeping us from reaching our full potential, & towards creating new meanings, & possibilibities.

I enjoy helping clients of any age relieve stress and negative energy and become more effective in relationships and the art of living. I work with each persons specific goals towards a more holistic life.
