Hi there, I'm Vanessa. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor living in the state of Texas. Often reducing depression, anxiety, and stress are common goals I have assisted in attaining. Also, grief processing and improving family communication skills are needs I have addressed. For my approach I choose Reality Therapy. I also find Cognitive/Behavioral techniques useful.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my primary obligation is to respect the integrity and to promote the welfare of my client. I see counseling as a process in which you, the client, and I, the counselor, having come to understand and trust one another, work as a team to explore and define present problem situations, develop future goals for an improved life and work in a systemic fashion toward realizing these goals. I will facilitate an atmosphere of warmth and trust in which to establish rapport between you and myself. The objective of therapy is to establish therapeutic goals and implement a planned change in your life.

There are so many surprises and experiences in the world to shape and grow us, some of which can be life-changing or hard to move past. It is easy to become voiceless, bottle things up, or notice that you completely have changed yourself to merely get by. Normalcy is often what everyone wants, but yet, to achieve it can be a constant battle with unending emotions. I have an innate drive and passion for supporting others and helping them reach their full potential as they navigate through transitions, adolescence, and other milestones in life, regardless of age group.

Ashley is a Licensed Professional Counselor. As a native Tennesean, she earned both her Bachelor’s of Psychology and Master’s of Community Counseling from the University of Tennessee. Her professor once said, “Play is a child’s most natural language.” That phrase, along with her love of the children, solidified Ashley’s career path. A job opportunity called her to Texas where she fell in love with breakfast tacos, blue bonnets and wide open spaces. She worked at an inpatient psychiatric hospital that exposed her to a variety of clinical diagnoses in the child and adolescent population.

I believe in the power of therapy to help people escape the grip of the trauma: I work with survivors of childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence, abusive relationships, rape and sexual violence, terrorism, and political violence. I understand that making a commitment to yourself through psychological therapy is a significant and important step for many people.

I grew up in San Antonio for most of my life, went to Iowa to get a degree in psychology, came back home to San Antonio to finish a Master's Program in counseling to be able to help people. I enjoy learning about people, i am no stranger to difficult times, and in the end sometimes our regular coping skills don't work and we need someone to talk with. I enjoy being that person and offering a safe space to vent and just be heard.

My name is Jay Cherry. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I believe the therapeutic relationship is key to recovery. Important aspects of this are empathy, warmth, humor, genuineness, and a nonjudgmental attitude. I believe all humans are capable of change. I have always been interested in the human condition, even as a child. What drives me to do this work is my empathetic nature and my confidence in my skills.

If you are committed to improving your situation, I will commit to working with you.

I believe in a therapeutic process that revolves around life's changes and the journeys it takes us on. Choosing to change your focus is a powerful way of transforming any situation. Focusing on the positive doesn't mean that we are denying reality or avoiding what isn't working. It simply allows us to work from a grounded place in order to make the most informed decision from a less emotional place of clarity. Within our sessions, the goal is to cultivate a trusting and collaborative therapeutic relationship where an individual can bring their full self into session without any fear.

Life comes with challenges. Sometimes we need support. As a Licenced Professional Therapist, my goal is to walk alongside you in order to navigate through life's challenges.

Therapy can be one of the most rewarding things you can do for yourself. Therapy is a personal journey, and I am honored to be the therapist to help you expand and strengthen your insight and awareness. My goal is to help you understand yourself better, and equip you with skills to actualize your best self. My therapy style is developmental, and supportive, with a strong focus on thinking about our thinking. Together we can explore narratives, with goals of reframing into a healthier, more self-compassionate internal dialogue of self acceptance. My approaches are engaging, workable and direct.

As a couple, everything seems great from the outside – happy family, successful careers, strong community. However, on the inside, there's a feeling like you're never quite good enough, struggling with thoughts of hopelessness and bitterness, sometimes not recognizing who your partner has become. Managing everything has become exhausting, leaving you both short-tempered and wondering if you can carry on like this. It's time for a change. Together, you can embark on a journey towards a more fulfilling and cohesive relationship. Let's work on strengthening your bond and rediscovering the joy in your partnership.

Life has its challenges and can create difficulties for anyone. Counseling can help provide the tools needed to get through those times and resolve issues that are in the way of your goals.

Life can be tough, overwhelming, and even at times feel unbearable, whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, or having difficulties adjusting to a traumatic life event. You may not have the support you need or the tools to help you navigate through this difficult time. That is where I would like to step in, to walk with you in your journey of healing. I hold a Bachelor degree in psychology and a Master of Arts degree in Counseling and Guidance, both from Texas A&M San Antonio. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor.

Licensed in TX and CO. My specialty is providing couples and sex psychotherapy. Relationships are foundations of life and can be affected by many things, such as communication, sexual needs/desires, or addictions. Our bodies experience change as we develop or go through major life changes. Sometimes they can be difficult to understand or manage. I provide a safe space to discuss intimate issues while eliminating feelings of fear or shame. My passion is to help you identify life goals and ways to help you achieve them. People work in different ways which is why I am flexible in the type of therapy I utilize.
