As an experienced LCSW with 16 years in the mental health field, I aim to empower individuals believe in themselves again. I work with clients through a solution-focused and CBT approach to identify and develop the skills needed to resolve their unique challenges and situations. I help clients to embrace their truth and remind them that it is "Ok not to be perfect!". I specialize in helping people heal from trauma and learn how to love/realize themselves, which entails cultivating healthier relationships, less anxiety and more purpose in their life’s journey. My goal is to help you live life from a place of whole-hearted connection to your world. I am a LCSW (licensed clinical social worker), a Veteran, an adoptive mother, a professor, a daughter, a sister, a community activist, LGBTQIA+ Activist, a nurturer, an empath and and advocate for the voiceless. I am also a survivor of many autrocities that this world has had to offer - but I survived and proudly help others climb out of the mental muck and mire that I used to call home.

I am so glad that you are considering starting therapy! I know that this can be a hard process to begin, and I want to make it as comfortable as possible for you with all of the hope that I am the right therapist for you! It is my passion to help others elevate positivity and happiness in their lives! I help women and young adults who are struggling with what their future holds. Sometimes there is confusion about the next chapter, pain from traumatic experiences, or a lack of self-love among many other possibilities. I am here to walk you through the healing stages toward a fulfilled life. You deserve it.

I operate from the stance that people were not intended to suffer alone. Often, burdens that appear too heavy or too great to move beneath feel that way because the individual does not have adequate resources and skills to process the situations or experiences. As a therapist, I have been blessed to stand alongside many individuals as they planted their feet back on the ground and learned to skills necessary to alter their view of self or to shift so that they became bigger than their pain. I have worked in both in-patient and private practice settings over the course of the last eight years. I have experience working with trauma, eating disorders, addiction, process addictions, families, parenting concerns, ADHD, depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. I am capable of engaging in Christian therapy if desired by the client. Overall, my goal as a therapist is to work beside the client as they learn to meet their goals, not to stand in front and pull them along or stand behind and push them. If we need to stand still and sort through some obstacles before moving forward, then that is part of the process and time well spent.

Hello everyone! My name is Danielle and I am a licensed therapist in Texas. I have 6 years of experience in counseling. I am originally from Pflugerville, Texas and am currently located in San Antonio, Texas. I am an alumni of Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio where I completed my bachelors and masters degrees in 2014 and 2016. I pride myself on accepting clients of all ages and backgrounds. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders. I am passionate about helping clients find peace and regulation in their lives despite the daily struggles of having a mental health diagnosis. I am a strengths-based practitioner and help clients realize their capabilities and build themselves up towards empowerment. I have found that everyone has their own unique mental health journey and I take it as a privilege and a blessing to be able to walk along side you as you grow.

Hello Friend! Everyone at one point or another will find themselves dealing with a host of unbearable stressors, as if weighed down. We may even describe the feeling as 'lost in a web of frustration'. Some may describe that sense of being as anxious, fatigue, or sadness, as if our unique threshold is completely depleted. But did you know feeling anxiousness is normal? Many would not know that feeling stress is actually a sense of determination for control and feeling tired is just temporary. Anxiousness is innate in all of us to escape danger. What's not healthy is when the stressors has crossed the threshold to what feels comfortable and interrupts our daily habits/responsibilities. But how do we 'fix things' when all we want is to be alone? When life throws us lemons, make lemonade? As simple as finding a helper - me. I’ll help you navigate the web of confusion to find YOUR empowerment. My journey began as a young child whose home was a host of struggles/abuse which later became insight into the struggles others experience. I found a well-regarded psychotherapist who helped me learn life-long cognitive tools. Later, as a psychotherapist in a clinical setting, I garnered a vast amount of knowledge which helped me to specialize in various modalities of treatment. Proper psychotherapists should emphasize there is no such thing as "the magic pill" and most treatments don't require medication. I hold a high standard for clients' rights as a mental health advocate with a high standard for myself. I serve all slices of society including those dealing with depression, grief, anxiety, relationship issues, past trauma, adjustment, chronic health and other issues. Together, we can identify what's not working for you. We will find solutions you innately use and form goals that do NOT require much change in your life.

Hi there, I’m Lynn. Do you often feel like the stress of life is overtaking you? Are you wanting to bring back the excitement and joy you felt in your relationships, your daily activities, and work? Are you struggling with being patient and kind with yourself, or do you struggle with being able to make the best decisions for your life right now due to feeling overwhelmed with life circumstances? I help individuals manage their stress and anxiety to avoid burnout and exhaustion. We can collaborate together to identify your triggers, unhealthy thought patterns, and to determine what is effectively working and what is not. We will address the whole person in taking care of your well-being, in order to getting you back to where you want to be and feel fulfilled in life. My approaches are eclectic but I do like to work with mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you develop more awareness and coping skills. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed with life decisions, relationship issues, or unhealthy cycles and patterns, I am here to walk through these issues so that you can grow and find fulfillment again. I realize that seeking therapy can feel overwhelming and intimidating at times, but I want to encourage you that you are making the right choice. Having a safe place to process and heal will cause you to grow and overcome the obstacles that you are struggling with. In our sessions, I want to encourage you that, I will bring understanding, without judgment, and skills that have shown to be effective in overcoming the hurdles that you are struggling with. I look forward to working with you to see you grow and live a more fulfilled life.

Hello! Thanks for visiting my profile. My name is Libby, and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience working with adolescents and adults representing some of the most vulnerable populations. Preference for individual/adults. As a Black female therapist, and on my mental wellness journey, I recognize the huge stigma connected to addressing mental health treatment in Black and Brown communities. Several barriers contribute to the gap in mental health care, including a lack of cultural representation among providers, an overwhelming sense of fear of sharing personal history with a stranger and being stigmatized by family or friends. The biggest obstacle is silence! Unfortunately, many are suffering alone, giving way to unhealthy generational patterns, like anxiety, depression, and PTSD (to name a few). My goal is to interrupt these negative patterns by creating space for healing and rewriting your story.
