Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am an LPC who has worked in Community Mental Health for 30 years in San Antonio. My clients have included children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. My experiences have been in non-profit community agency settings, often with under-served populations. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, OCD, and ADHD. I have also worked with persons experiencing gender identity issues, and LGBTQ issues. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My clients have included persons on the Autism Spectrum dealing with the transition to adulthood and independence.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect and compassion. I want to focus more on the person than on your diagnosis or label. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek help when you are discouraged or overwhelmed and I am ready to take those steps with you. I will assist you in realizing your life goals and feeling empowered.

Many people wonder whether counseling delivered online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One of the main benefits is flexibility – people can connect in the format that fits their schedule and comfort level, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability often makes it easier to maintain regular care and integrate therapy into a busy life.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. Online therapy can therefore offer both professional expertise and practical convenience for many common mental health needs.
