Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, MS, NCC, LCDC-I
The way you see your body can shape how you feel about almost everything else. I help people move away from harsh self-criticism and toward a more compassionate, realistic relationship with their bodies. We'll explore where those critical messages came from, challenge the beliefs that keep them going, and build self-worth that isn't tied to appearance. Whether you're struggling with disordered eating, negative self-talk, or simply feeling disconnected from your body, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to heal.

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, ATR
Body image is a complex and multifaceted issue that affects people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. It involves the way we perceive and feel about our bodies, as well as the way we believe others perceive us. Body image issues can manifest in a variety of ways, from feeling self-conscious about a specific feature to experiencing anxiety and depression related to body size and shape.
In today's society, where social media and advertising often promote unrealistic beauty standards, it can be challenging to develop a positive body image. However, learning to love and accept our bodies is essential for our overall well-being. It can help us feel more confident, improve our relationships, and enhance our overall quality of life.
Counseling and therapy can be valuable tools for addressing body image issues. Through therapy, individuals can learn to identify and challenge negative beliefs about their bodies, develop coping strategies for managing anxiety and depression, and build a more positive and accepting relationship with their bodies. By focusing on self-care, self-love, and self-compassion, individuals can learn to feel more comfortable and confident in their own skin.

San Antonio is one of the largest military cities in the country, home to the Joint Base San Antonio installations at Fort Sam Houston, Lackland, and Randolph, generating exceptionally strong demand for therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, moral injury, and the challenges of military family life including frequent relocation and deployment stress. The city has a majority Hispanic population, and bilingual Spanish-English therapists and culturally grounded care for Latino families are consistently in high demand. University Health and the South Texas Veterans Health Care System provide major institutional mental health services alongside a large private practice community. San Antonio's strong Catholic faith tradition also means many residents seek therapists who can integrate spiritual values with evidence-based care.
