Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Boerne, TX

Hì! My name is Ivelisse. I support clients facing challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.

Every person has a story. The culmination of experiences in one's life shapes how they view themselves, their relationships, and the world. I have a passion for helping clients celebrate their unique strengths and gifts they share with others. With experiences in both private practice and hospitals, I have noticed a particular need for clients to separate their view of themselves from their current difficulties and circumstances. In spite of where clients may find themselves at the moment, my belief is that they have overcome every difficulty, challenge, and trauma that they have faced up to the present moment. As such, they will withstand their current circumstances, and will again declare victory.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes that healing happens best in spaces that are safe, honest, and non-judgmental. I work with those who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma.

My approach is collaborative and practical. We will focus on understanding what’s showing up in your life, identifying patterns that may be holding you back, and developing tools you can use in real-world situations. I don’t believe in perfection—I believe in progress.

Clients often describe me as direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

As a military spouse of more than 27 years and a former military BRAT, I understand what it means to navigate constant change, uncertainty, and rebuilding. Those experiences have shaped the compassionate, culturally responsive approach I bring to therapy today.

I provide virtual therapy for adolescents and adults in Texas, Colorado, and Florida, supporting individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, substance use, and major life transitions. I have a special passion for working with military members, veterans, military families, the BIPOC community, and parents and caregivers who have spent so much time caring for others that they've lost sight of themselves.

My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported—not judged. Together, we'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck, build practical tools for everyday life, and help you move toward healing, resilience, and lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.

Outside of therapy, you'll usually find me spending time with my family, exploring museums, trying new cuisines, baking from scratch, or working on a creative project. I believe healing happens through authentic connection, and I would be honored to be part of your journey.

I am glad you found me, and you found this website. To me, that shows that you are ready to make a change in your life. My goal for you in therapy is to live a happier life every day. We are not guaranteed a lot in life, but my goal is to give you the power to enjoy what we do have influence on. I am a human just like you, and my approach is the same. I will meet you where you are at, and I will challenge you to live a better life, because you deserve it. Even if you choose someone else on this website, I am proud of you for making this step.
