Growing up as part of a military family, I have lived on opposite sides of the United States, the Midwest, and even lived internationally during college. Now, as a wife and mother, as well as working professional, I can relate to the joys, challenges, and everything in between which life brings. These experiences have not only helped make me who I am today, but assist in my ability to provide an empathic approach and understanding in my clinical practice.

As a seasoned practitioner (since 2006) with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, I have dedicated my career to mastering a diverse range of therapeutic modalities to better serve my clients.
My clinical practice is grounded in extensive training across several specialized frameworks, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Additionally, I incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy, and Hypnotherapy into my work, allowing for a highly tailored and comprehensive approach to psychological wellness.
- My approach to therapy is interactive and collaborative, focused on your self discovery and growth. I see our work as a partnership where your voice, values, and goals matter. Together, we will explore what is bringing you to therapy and clarify the changes you hope to see in your life, relationships, and overall sense of well being.
- I prefer to join in with my clients rather than sit back and simply observe. We will actively work together to identify patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that enhance your quality of life. I will offer gentle guidance, ask thoughtful questions, and invite your feedback so our sessions feel useful and relevant to you.
- I believe the therapy relationship is designed to support the change you are seeking. Our work will help you move toward those desired shifts at a pace that feels right, while honoring what is most important to you. If you are ready to explore your next steps in a collaborative, supportive space, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
I believe therapy can feel welcoming and human rather than intimidating or overly formal. I want you to feel comfortable showing up as yourself, whether you are having a great day, facing a hard one, or trying to understand what you are feeling. I am warm, compassionate, and easygoing, and I value genuine connection. I will not tell you how to live your life. Instead, I will help you feel heard, understand yourself, and feel less alone.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in San Antonio
Searching for therapists in San Antonio starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may fit your needs. San Antonio has a broad mental health care community across areas like Alamo Heights, Southtown, Stone Oak, and the Medical Center, so it helps to narrow your search by concern, specialty, and therapy approach. You may want support for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training, listed specialties, and approaches that match what you want to work on, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care.
In a large metro area like San Antonio, having many options can make the search more detailed. Location, schedule, and session format can help you decide which therapists are practical matches. Some people prefer an office close to home, work, or school, while others choose virtual sessions for more flexibility. You can also compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, what sessions may look like, and whether their experience aligns with your needs.
Therapy in San Antonio can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway makes that process easier by helping you search for licensed therapists, verify your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly with therapists who are accepting new clients. You can browse therapists in San Antonio, review profiles, and choose someone who matches your needs, schedule, and insurance plan.
