  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) involves obsessions and compulsions that create distress and interfere with daily life.
  • Phobias are irrational fears of a situation or object.
  • Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is marked by constant worry and anxiety about a wide variety of concerns in the absence of a specific threat.
  • Social anxiety disorder (SAD) involves an irrational fear of being observed, judged, or embarrassed that causes severe anxiety in social situations.
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) involves anxiety symptoms following a traumatic experience.

Couples often seek couples or marriage counseling when the relationship is at a standstill or unsure whether or not the relationship is worth salvaging. This type of therapy can benefit families with children who have been affected by relationship issues such as divorce, and confront the source of the conflict.

Treatment techniques may include the following depending on the therapist:

  • Gottman Method
  • Narrative Therapy
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy
  • Positive Psychology
  • Imago Relationship Therapy
  • Analyzing Your Communication
  • Getting to the root of the problem
  • Enhancing Intimacy
  • Individual Counseling
  • Couple Retreat

When a relationship is showing signs of addiction, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, or severe depression, seek guidance from a counselor immediately, for your safety and your partner.

Intimacy problems widely occur behind a variety of closed doors. Conflicts may include a loss of harmony between the sheets, a lack of sexual desire between either partners, or failure in communication. There are often psychological factors that may contribute to a sexual disorder such as erectile dysfunction, or a lowered desire after a new mother has given birth. Intimacy issues are common, but if one or more become severe and there is no resolution in sight, it may be time to seek therapy for guidance.

Steps to take for treating intimacy issues begin with:

•    Psychosexual Therapy: this technique allows couples to express themselves in a safe environment with a trusted and supportive professional.

•    Relationship Counseling: healthy relationships require strong connections and time to build trust. Whatever the issue may be, a counselor can work with individuals together or separately to overcome the problem.

Suppose you or a loved one is seeking an immigration waiver or filing to petition a judge to grant a suspension of deportation. In that case, a clinical evaluation can help strengthen your case. Four types of immigration waivers can benefit from a clinical mental health evaluation:

  • Extreme Hardship Waivers (I-601)
  • U-Visa (Victims of Crime)
  • Violence Against Women Act (VAWA-Domestic Violence)
  • Political Asylum

Understanding that each individual’s experience is unique, a safe environment is provided to help the client report any underlying circumstances to help present a compelling case. My personal experience attending St. Mary’s University allowed me to meet peers from across the globe. Traveling throughout Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East further reinforced my admiration and respect for other cultures and faiths.

I am privileged to have worked on evaluations for people from Mexico, Central & South America, China, and India. As a bilingual clinician licensed by the Texas Board of Examiners of Professional Counselors, I am also a graduate of the Immigration Evaluation Institute.

Couples therapy provides a space for the couple to jointly cultivate a better understanding of how they tend to function together around fundamental tasks of a relationship: appreciating and supporting the other’s growth and development; working together in a common undertaking; fostering intimate relations both physical and emotional; making decisions involving shared resources (e.g. money); and resolving disputes/conflicts when they arise.

Effective couples therapy cannot rest with understanding. Useful engagements will continue to foster the development of practical skills, including through active experimentation between sessions.

Couples Therapy:

Whether you are married, dating, or living together, you and your partner can benefit from couples therapy. Couples therapy uses psychotherapeutic techniques to address a couple’s dynamic in both individual and couple sessions.

Any couple can benefit from couples therapy. It is a common misconception to think that only couples on the edge of a breakup need this form of therapy. Many perfectly healthy couples attend couples therapy so that they can proactively work on maintaining balance and happiness in their relationship.

Family Counseling:

When a family wants to work on improving communication and the ties that bind them together, they often turn to family counseling. Family counseling never focuses one one person, but rather the group dynamic as a whole. Patients can participate in group family sessions as well as in individual sessions that address the family dynamic. Family counseling is typically strengths-based, meaning it focuses on the assets of each family member rather than their deficits.

Family counseling treats a number of things, including:

  • Mental health disorders or addiction in a family
  • Traumas such as death or chronic illness
  • Divorce
  • Incarceration
  • Conflict
  • Developmental delays
  • Blended families

Our expert physicians provide in-network therapy and psychiatry services, covered by insurance, through both Telehealth and In-person appointments.

Couples Counseling:

Every couple has highs and lows in their relationship. That loving communication, appreciation, and understanding are more easily described than carried-out in real life. When couples find themselves off-track, it does not mean the relationship is over. It often means that the couple just needs a little help. When trust has been lost, partners may be able to rebuild it. When couples are pulling in different direction, they can re-evaluate their priorities. When intimacy has been lost, that spark can be reignited. Couples therapy is not a magic formula to save a relationship, but it often helps. Skilled therapists can often turn challenges into opportunities for partners to grow closer to each other.

That is why Thriveworks San Antonio offers couples therapy. Many partners who want a better relationship do not always know how to improve their connection. Our therapists have helped many couples learn how to improve their relationship.

Family Therapy:

Whether or not you and your family need to see a therapist depends on your situation and personal opinions-it's a consensus you’ll need to reach together. However, it may be helpful to keep in mind that there are several indications of negative family dynamics that you can watch out for, including:

  • Undiagnosed mental health conditions or disorders
  • Alcohol or drug addiction
  • Physical or verbal abuse
  • Feelings of resentment or hostility
  • Unruly behavioral issues in children or teens
  • Persistent anxiety over financial issues or relationship difficulties

Adult Counseling

In counseling, our focus is to resolve the issues that bring you to counseling and to help you establish or re-establish your life in the most health manner. The first step is to work on identifying the goals you seek to accomplish. Then, our counseling acts to help you release the forces of positive growth forces already present within you. With dedication you can fulfill your goals and grow beyond negative patterns from the past, and be empowered to move forward with freedom in your life. Our therapists are trained to help you resolve all life, college, career, family, and relationship difficulties or transitions.

Couples Counseling

Everyone knows that having good communication is vital to your relationship. Since statistics show that over 60 percent of marriages end in divorce, one reason may be that many couples don’t seek relationship counseling until it’s too late. Most of us realize that getting rid of your partner does not get rid of the problems because half of the problem is ours. You can walk out of your relationship/marriage, but you can’t run away from yourself - no matter how hard you try. One of the biggest challenges for most couples is learning how to stop blaming each other so they can work through the troubled times without the power struggles. Couples counseling offers a safe haven for partners to express their needs, fears and effectively resolve anger and conflict.

Ages 18+.

We offer in-person and telehealth visits.

Group Therapy is also offered. Please call us to inquire about current ongoing groups.

Build a Healthy Relationship With Your Partner

Whether you're dating, engaged, or married, relationships can be challenging. If you and your partner are experiencing a rough patch, are considering separating, or simply want to become better communicators and partners in life, a couples counselor can help.  

Couples therapy involves three people: you, your partner, and your therapist. Relationships can get messy! A therapist can help you identify what’s causing a breakdown and guide you in navigating the road ahead. Here is how Ellie can support you and your partner on this journey. 

  • Work through infidelity, dishonesty, and other trust-breaking behaviors. 
  • Identify negative communication and behavioral patterns in the relationship. 
  • Get professional guidance if you and your partner choose to separate or divorce. 
  • Discuss how outside parties are negatively impacting your relationship. 
  • Open the door for intimate, honest conversation with your partner. 
  • Set healthy boundaries with your partner, in-laws, and work. 
  • Address relationship disappointment, hurt, resentment, and trauma. 
  • Get support in navigating loss, traumatic situations, or difficult life changes. 

If you and your partner have been struggling with your relationship for some time or are dealing with significant relationship issues, you may see couples counseling as a last resort.

Individual therapy is the foundation of mental health care. It's where you and your therapist will dig into your past, dreams, goals, and pains and work together to find solutions. Here is how Ellie can support you with individual therapy.

  • Strategize how to change harmful thought patterns and behaviors. 
  • Improve interpersonal skills and build strong connections with others.
  • Discover and fall in love with your authentic self – both outside and in. 
  • Receive treatment for disorders such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, or ADHD.
  • Build trust with your therapist and find your safe place to talk and decompress.
  • Set achievable short-term and long-term goals for your healing journey. 
  • Cope with difficult life situations, such as a divorce, death, job loss, or trauma.
  • Establish healthy boundaries in relationships, work, and other areas.
