Therapy for anxiety in San Antonio and across Texas
You’re Not Broken, You’re Overwhelmed
Anxiety can trap you in loops of what ifs and worst-case thinking. Even when you know the fear isn’t logical, it still feels real.
Living with Anxiety is a Lot More Than Just Worry
It’s the constant mental noise that won’t shut off. It’s replaying conversations, imagining worst-case scenarios, and feeling like something bad is always just around the corner. It’s waking up already tense and going to bed exhausted from trying to hold it all together.
You might look like you’re functioning just fine… taking care of responsibilities, showing up for others, pushing through, but inside, it’s a different story. You’re overwhelmed, overstimulated, and running on fumes. And the hardest part? Most people don’t see how much effort it takes just to manage the day.
You’re not overreacting. You’re not weak. Your nervous system has been in survival mode for too long. You deserve support that helps you feel safe in your own body and mind again.
You’ve carried this for long enough. Let’s talk about what healing can actually look like.
How therapy works
A calmer mind starts here.
When you’ve been living with anxiety for a long time, it can feel like your mind is always racing and your body is always bracing for something bad to happen. You might try to talk yourself out of the fear, reason your way through it, or just push through the day, but nothing seems to really bring relief that lasts.
Therapy gives you something different. It offers a space where you don’t have to carry it all alone. A place where your experience is taken seriously and where healing is possible.
I approach anxiety therapy with compassion, curiosity, and a deep respect for everything you’ve done to cope so far. Together, we’ll gently explore what’s fueling the anxiety, not to judge it, but to understand it, and begin building tools that help you feel more calm, centered, and in control.
I use evidence-based approaches to help calm the nervous system, shift anxious thought patterns, and build a stronger sense of self-trust. Together, we’ll find what feels most supportive for you and move at a pace that feels safe and sustainable.

Anxiety can show up in ways that aren’t always obvious. You might feel tense, on edge, or like your thoughts never stop. Even if you’re managing on the outside, you may still be carrying a lot inside.
Some common signs of anxiety include:
Racing or intrusive thoughts
Constant worry or dread
Irritability or restlessness
Muscle tension or jaw clenching
Trouble sleeping or staying asleep
Difficulty concentrating
Feeling exhausted for no clear reason
Avoiding situations that feel overwhelming
If any of this sounds familiar, therapy can help you understand what’s happening and support you in finding relief.

Anxiety can come from many places; stress, trauma, genetics, life transitions, or even long periods of uncertainty. Sometimes it develops gradually and other times after a specific event. In therapy, we’ll explore both the root causes and the patterns that keep anxiety active, so you can start to feel more grounded and in control.
-
Anxiety is part of being human, so the goal isn’t to erase it completely, but to understand it, respond to it differently, and stop letting it run the show. Over time, most clients feel more grounded, less reactive, and more in control of their lives.
-
Absolutely. Anxiety often shows up in the body; through tension, fatigue, stomach upset, or a racing heartbeat. Therapy helps you understand the connection between your mind and body, so you can recognize early signs of stress and use tools to bring your system back into balance.
-
I use evidence-based approaches that help you understand and reduce anxiety from multiple angles; such as identifying thought patterns, processing underlying fears, and learning practical coping tools. For some clients, I may also integrate trauma-focused methods like Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) when anxiety is linked to past experiences.
