Hi there, I'm Juan Pablo.

I am a compassionate and dedicated Mental Health Therapist, committed to helping individuals achieve emotional well-being and inner harmony. With a deep passion for mental health, I have cultivated a wealth of experience in providing empathetic and evidence-based therapeutic support to my clients. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a a holistic approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit.

I’ve spent my career supporting people through some of their hardest moments—crisis units, inpatient care, disability rehabilitation, and corporate healthcare. Being a foster parent gave me a firsthand view of how families cope under intense strain. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, I specialize in the mental‐health impact of chronic illness, disability, and identity shifts. I believe people are more resilient than they realize, and the right support helps them access it.

I’m a therapist who works with thoughtful, high-functioning individuals who may look “put together” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected on the inside. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, or the pressure to keep it all together. Together, we’ll create space to slow down, increase awareness, and better understand what’s going on beneath the surface.

Welcome! I am a dual Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I offer medication management, diagnosis and evaluation. Whether it's making sure your meds are working right, dealing with any side effects, or just feeling better overall. I treat a range of mental health issues, including Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar and ADHD. I am here to ensure you feel supported and empowered, and your input is absolutely crucial.

Life can feel overwhelming when you are carrying more than you can manage on your own while trying to balance work, relationships, family responsibilities, and daily stress. You may be navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or family challenges while feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. Over time, that pressure can show up as chronic worry, burnout, sadness, emotional overwhelm, anger, or a growing sense of disconnection from yourself and others. I specialize in anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, family issues, and grief or loss. I work with adolescents, adults, and children, and as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas with 12 years of experience, my goal is to create a supportive space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to move toward healing and meaningful change.

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

― Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

I am a firm believer that life–even the best of lives– has moments of pain and suffering; however great or small. Some come to pass quickly and float away from our consciousness, while others stay with us, shape us, change our relationships and the way we see the world. The rest of our life is filled with moments dependent on how we cope with, process and accept those moments of pain or suffering.

Hi! I'm Chris Bonnet, a warm, compassionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) here in San Antonio who’s passionate about helping you feel mentally strong, clear, and supported—no judgment, just real care. I have advanced training in holistic nursing, family practice, and a unique science background in biophysics, I bring both the latest mental health tools and a deep understanding of the whole you. Over 20 years I’ve walked alongside people through life’s toughest moments in clinics, homes, hospice, and urgent settings, so I know how to listen closely and create plans that actually fit your life.

You may be so used to taking care of everyone else that it is hard to recognize when you need support too. Family responsibilities can become overwhelming, stress may follow you even when you finally have a moment to yourself, and anger or relationship difficulties can leave you feeling disconnected from the people who matter most. I work with adults, adolescents, and children experiencing family issues, stress management, anger management, cultural and ethnic concerns, and relationship issues. These experiences can also overlap with anxiety, grief or loss, maternal mental health concerns, identity issues, or PTSD, especially when your relationships, responsibilities, culture, and emotional wellbeing are all influencing one another. Therapy can give you a place where you do not have to carry every role at once. Together, we can understand what has been weighing on you, strengthen the relationships that matter to you, and help you find healthier ways to care for yourself while navigating the demands of everyday life.
