Find a Therapist in Hondo, Texas.

Psychotherapy is the process by which we learn about ourselves and how to overcome difficulties in the context of a caring, supportive therapy relationship. I practice from a family systems perspective, which means we look at the individual in the context of their most important relationships. Though family members may not be present, we all have important people in our lives, and it is important to deal with them in forgiving, assertive ways with good boundaries. Cognitive behavioral therapy deals with our thoughts and subsequent actions, and generally feelings improve when our thoughts and actions are healthier. Progress can be made toward a more satisfying life through therapy.

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

You can freely explore your ideas and feelings in the private, compassionate setting of our psychotherapy sessions. We will identify and address underlying issues using individualized strategies, promoting self-awareness and resilience. Together, we'll create useful coping skills and confront unproductive mental habits. You will be given the tools you need to manage life's obstacles with newfound clarity and purpose thanks to this method. Our therapy relationship will provide ongoing support and encourage constructive change, ensuring that you always feel heard and understood on your path to mental health.

Sometimes having an unbiased and trusting ear helps us move from the difficulties we find in our everyday lives and find new solutions to old problems. In our work together you can expect to be respected and have a safe environment to explore life and it's challenges as well as begin to be invited to try new ways of overcoming those difficulties. Together we can find different ways to not only cope and deal with life, but enjoy it as well.

My approach to therapy is not a quick fix or a band-aid approach. It is not self-help advice or executive coaching. It is a process of research-proven, emotional surgery that gets at the heart of your issues and heals them at their source. If you’re like many of my clients, you’ve conquered in the workplace and found success. And yet, you’re not at peace with your life. Whether it’s stress, trauma, addiction, strained relationships, or a lack of motivation, something needs to change. Often, my role is to help successful men get their hearts back. I can help you rediscover your purpose, reconnect with what matters, heal your insecurities, improve your relationships, and leave a legacy.

My approach to psychotherapy is rooted in fostering a therapeutic alliance built on trust, empathy, and active listening. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in depth. Through a client-centered and integrative approach, clients will benefit from tailored interventions and techniques that address their unique needs and goals. I strive to empower clients to gain self-awareness, develop coping strategies, and facilitate personal growth.

This private practice is focused on helping clients create a balanced and joyful life. Everyone can discover the way that works best for him or her. It appears that we tend to focus way too much time and energy on "right vs. wrong." This seems to only cause more confusion, indecisiveness, and other insecurities. Seeking outside guidance in times of struggle can be powerful and transformative. One of the goals of this practice is to help clients discover a deeper sense of self and acceptance. Another intention of this practice practice is to help clients build and maintain the necessary tools they already have existing within themselves, and lead clients to new discoveries of living life in a more balanced and enjoyable way.
