Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Belton, TX

I began my career in education more than 25 years ago and currently serve as both a mental health professional and professional school counselor. I am deeply committed to promoting self-care, mental health, nutrition, and overall wellness as essential components of quality of life. In addition to being a Licensed Professional Counselor and certified school teacher, I hold a Master of Science in Nutrition and am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). My approach is rooted in holistic wellness, supporting physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being through healthy living and intentional self care.

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. Si prefieres hablar en español, aquí estamos.

Life can look perfectly fine on the outside while feeling overwhelming underneath. You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Whether you're feeling stuck, constantly overthinking, burned out, or repeating patterns you can't seem to break, therapy can be a place to finally make sense of what's going on.

I bring curiosity, honesty, and practical insight into every session. Rather than giving generic advice or simply asking, "How does that make you feel?" we'll work together to understand what's keeping you stuck, identify what's actually changeable, and build strategies that fit your life. I'll challenge you when it's helpful, support you when it's needed, and create a space where you can be completely yourself without worrying about being judged or getting it "right."

I specialize in therapy for the women everyone relies on who feel like if they stop, everything falls apart, helping them quiet anxiety, let go of perfectionism, and finally believe they are enough.

I believe that struggles with mental health can make us feel like we’re on the outside looking in — different, misunderstood, or even broken.

Many of the people I work with identify as the “black sheep” in their families or communities — thoughtful, self-aware, but carrying more than they should have to on their own.

My goal is to help you shift how you see those experiences. What feels like a weakness or flaw often has the potential to become a source of strength, insight, and growth.

I specialize in working with people who feel like they don’t quite fit in.

Hi there. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, focus, or any other mood symptoms, I'm here. You don't have to struggle alone. I can help you feel like yourself again.

I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety, panic, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and stress-related conditions.
