Chronic Illness Therapists in San Antonio, TX

I have a knack for helping people get "unstuck" after becoming immobilized or discouraged in therapy, perplexed about with decision-making, or in the tough situations life brings us. I have had good success with clients with residual symptoms from PTSD, and helping patients manage the intersection between chronic pain and PTSD. I have worked with clients and families adjusting to disabilities/chronic medical conditions, addressing mood symptoms, trauma symptoms, anger, grief, couples, family parenting, & divorce, for school age children through older adults. Clients actively engaging in therapy report progress within 2-3 sessions.

The hardest times in our lives can be huge turning points if managed well. If you are struggling, please consider psychotherapy. There are many wonderful psychological tools that can help you become healthier so you can live your life with more clarity, confidence, and purpose. Contrary to the stereotype, most people seeking counseling are "normal," just happen to be stuck, and realize they need help to move forward. Whether it's a health problem, infertility, a loss, work-life imbalance, or just plain stress that has you down, let's work together to help you take charge of your life.

On our journey through life we all face challenges. We may be dealing with grief issues, relationship issues, or need help with communicating more effectively.

I believe that given the right context, such as a safe, stimulating, and nurturing environment, people can make the changes they need to make to live a happier, more productive and positive life. Given the right tools, everyone has the capacity to engineer their life in a healthier way.

Hi there! My name is Jacy. As a licensed clinical social worker and registered play therapist, I have found my passion in working with children and families.

I work with individuals who are looking for a different approach to tackling life's challenges. The creative process can offer individuals a unique catalyst for change. Art therapy is an integrative mental health profession that combines the visual and verbal to help people foster insight, experience healing, and create meaningful change. Art therapy is not reserved for professional artists; but is accessible to meet you where ever you are at. Art is an extension of yourself, and a powerful way to communicate when sometimes the words just are not there.

I believe that we are created with potential for balance and harmony, however, life is not always easy, we may struggle at times to reach this balance. When we get "stuck" or face difficult challenges, we must first identify which areas of life need adjusting or strengthening, and then, we set out to make the necessary changes. Whether it is physical, emotional, spiritual or mental unbalance, we can positively impact our lives by starting to work in one area, and, since they are all connected, the rest will follow. The mind-body connection is undeniable, research and science favor an integrated approach to behavioral health.

Finding the right fit for therapy can be a tough challenge. How will I know what it's like to work with a therapist? My clients have described me as "results driven with a clear vision forward no matter what I bring to session", "someone who calls me on my bullshit but in a way I don't feel judged", "imaginative", "like a really encouraging but intense coach for your mental health", "relatable", "never judges" and "like talking to a friend but they know so much about this stuff- like an archeologist but for your mind".

Has life become overwhelming and exhausting? Do you find yourself struggling with depression, anxiety, issues around self-worth, or difficulty navigating life transitions, despite appearing successful and driven in your professional life? Does it sometimes feel like things won’t ever get better? Do you even know where to start? Asking for help takes courage and is the first step on your journey to healing.

Have you ever felt as if you’ve never fit in, perhaps from your earliest memories? Or been told that you’re too sensitive, compared negatively to others, or the "black sheep" of the family? You may feel as if nothing you do is good enough. So far, doing the opposite of what you were raised with has gotten you through life, but memories, resentment, & shame, cloud the happy moments. That feeling of "there has to be more to life" is there, but you're unsure how to begin. Breaking the cycle is hard, but you don't have to do it alone any longer.

If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, confused, powerless, helpless to control life issues, a healthy first step toward realizing positive change in your life, is to invest in therapy. By discovering your strengths, gifts, and unique perception, we can begin utilizing these attributes toward effective thoughtful problem solving and decision making behaviors.
