My individual work helps you build on your strengths while you gain a healthier perspective on what you may currently perceive as weaknesses. I want to help you understand and appreciate the unique combination of gifts you have to draw on. My goal is to help you find more meaningful and fulfilling ways to negotiate your life's path. I work with non-traditional individuals using traditional insight-oriented methods. Many of my clients are individuals in non-traditional jobs and/or relationships who want to look deeply into their own experiences.
Hi, I’m Kayla Silguero, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families facing anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem concerns, grief, life transitions, relationship and family concerns, and emotional or behavioral challenges. I know reaching out can feel overwhelming, so I strive to create a welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and comfortable being yourself.
You might look like you're holding it all together on the outside while feeling exhausted, anxious, disconnected, or overwhelmed on the inside. Maybe you've spent so much time taking care of everyone else that you've stopped checking in with yourself. Or maybe life changed unexpectedly, and you're trying to figure out who you are now.
If that sounds familiar, you're not alone.
I work with children, teens, adults, couples, families, veterans, first responders, and LGBTQ+ individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, major life transitions, and the stress that comes from simply trying to keep up. My goal isn't to tell you how to live your life. It's to help you understand yourself more deeply, quiet the constant mental noise, and feel more confident in the choices you make.
Clients often tell me they appreciate that I'm easy to talk to, calm, honest, and genuine. Therapy with me is a place where you don't have to have it all figured out. You can show up exactly as you are, and we'll take it one step at a time.
If you've spent your life providing, surviving, and holding things together for everyone else, therapy can feel like one more thing to manage. I work with men and working people who are tired of feeling anxious, isolated, or stuck, and who want to feel like themselves again. As a bilingual therapist raised in San Antonio, I understand the pressures of low wages, generational trauma, and the expectation to keep pushing no matter what. Whether you're navigating relationships, identity, or stress that never fully turns off, you don't have to figure it out alone. Sessions can be held in Spanish or English.

Hello! I am a board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to caring for individuals and families across Texas. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston in 2025 and my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Texas Tech University in 2018. I have experience in emergency medicine, inpatient psychiatry, crisis services, substance detoxification, trauma, and sexual assault care—backgrounds that shape my compassionate, trauma-informed approach. I enjoy working with children (ages 5+), teens, and adults. I treat a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, mood and behavioral disorders, trauma, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, always with warmth, respect, and clinical expertise.
Great to meet you
If you’re struggling with anxiety, overthinking, trauma, or relationship stress, you’re not alone. Many people face these challenges, and support is available to help you feel understood and less isolated.
I work with adults and adolescents who feel overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break. Many of my clients deal with high anxiety, racing thoughts, people-pleasing, and difficulty setting boundaries. Still, therapy can help you find hope and a way forward, even if it looks like you have everything together on the outside.
If you’re constantly overanalyzing, feeling on edge, or carrying the weight of past experiences, therapy can help you slow things down and regain control, empowering you to manage your thoughts and feelings more effectively.
Hi, I’m Melissa! Thanks for visiting! My ideal client is someone who’s ready to take accountability and implement change. I believe accountability is one of the strongest foundations for growth. When you can own your choices and patterns, you can shift them and move toward your highest self. With 20 years of experience as a social worker, I support individuals who are navigating depression, anxiety, stress, anger, and self-esteem challenges. I also have experience working with people who have been impacted by foster care, domestic violence, court system, family conflict and traumatic events.
Hi, I'm Ariel, a Doctor of Nursing Practice, professor, and board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC).I provide care for individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and substance use disorders. My background includes working across telehealth, inpatient, and outpatient settings, including detox and addiction treatment.
I bring a warm, down-to-earth approach and value working collaboratively with my clients. My focus is to create a supportive environment where you feel heard and respected as we work together toward real, lasting progress
What I most want to impress upon you all is that I myself, have over 210 hours on the couch. I have been engaged in my own inner work since 2013. I continue and plan to always dig deeper within to extract every inch of meaning that is possible to obtain on this journey of life to leave this world a little better than I found it.
