Greetings! I'm Susan, a proud former Marine and native Texan with a heartfelt dedication to providing therapeutic support.

As a Neuro-diverse individual myself, I have a special affinity for working with Neuro-Diverse individuals, along with veterans.

The world is a tough place right now. We're all living in a state of constant stress. When we think we have it all figured out, life throws us a curve ball, political ups & downs, the death of a loved one or taking care of an ill loved one. Imagine adding a layer of anxiety or depression. What about introversion? Just for fun, let's also add a layer for people that identify as LGBTQ+. Coming out as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non binary, or gender fluid can be confusing for your straight, cis family and friends. Whether you identify with this because you experience this regularly or someone you love feels this way.

Are you transgender or wondering about your gender identity? You worry about the uncertainty of transitioning. questions. Could I lose my family? Will my friends support me? What about my job? What a relief it would be if others could see you like you see yourself. Some days the stress just feels like too much. You may have questions about what to do next, who to tell, where to get hormone therapy, or how to find your support. Most of all you just want to feel some relief and know that things can get better.

SATURDAY appointments now available! Counseling can be a marvelous way to assist you or a loved one to do better and feel better. Sometimes our coping skills fall short of our needs, and feeling like there are no more options can absolutely feel like hitting rock bottom. But there is hope. Someone does care. I have, myself, had many challenges in life and have, from time to time, sought help in counseling. Needing help does not mean you are weak: it means you are ready to find answers.

I support individuals and families in learning about, and coping with, mental health and substance abuse diagnoses. I utilize techniques designed to assist individuals in healing and reaching personal goals. I understand the negative impact Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE's) have on the whole person and I am passionate about providing trauma-informed, person-centered care.

Welcome are those whose sense of safety and joy of living are hijacked by trauma. If you find yourself struggling and exhausted, hiding your pain and feeling alone, WITH ME YOU WILL FIND HELP. For the last ten years I’ve helped people to regain life balance, self-compassion and reclaim their lives from the grips of trauma. An Air Force veteran and trauma clinician, I’m keenly attuned to the unique needs of military members, first responders, helping professionals, crime survivors, and how exposure to trauma can affect their well-being.

Maybe you are struggling feeling lonely and misunderstood in your relationship. You're tired that the same argument keeps happening over and over again. You feel like you don't know how to get through to your partner. If only your partner would turn towards you more often, you could go back to feeling like a team. Or maybe you're exhausted of feeling like you can never do anything right in your relationship. You've tried different approaches and it seems to just make things worse. You're frustrated and scared, not knowing where to start or what questions to ask. I have worked with many couples struggling with issues just like these.

Talking about your concerns can help clarify what you want and need in your life. Finding choices helps us to grow and change personally and emotionally. I am here to give you the knowledge, perspective and experience gained through working with people in therapy for over 30 years. As a licensed professional counselor with experience in providing preteen, teen, couples, and individual counseling, let me offer you a warm and accepting environment where being non-judgmental is necessary to make you feel comfortable. Please note I work by telehealth only and my hours are Sunday through Friday from 7am to 3pm.

I view clients as experts of their own experience and it is my role to provide support and facilitate growth.

I work with concerns such as self-esteem, relationships, social skills, assertiveness/boundary-setting, perfectionism, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, and insomnia.

¡Hola! My name is Dr. Jacqueline Contreras. My experiences include treating patients managing chronic pain, anxiety, depression, stress, phase of life issues, post-traumatic stress disorder, personal growth, social phobia, self-esteem, work related injuries, car accident injuries, and adjustment disorder. I have experience working with LGBTQ+ patients, too.

I believe that everyone possesses tools to overcome any challenge in life. There are times when life has us feeling stuck and we need help finding the key to our tool box. With all the hurdles life throws, we can be left feeling hopeless, leaving us to forget tools that have helped through past obstacles. To help individuals and families overcome these life challenges, I use a strengths based approach and other evidenced-based approaches to help individuals and families reclaim their fortitude in life.
