HI! I'm Elizabeth! I'm an LMFT who graduated in 2018 fron Liberty University. I've worked in community mental health, psychiatric hospitals and private practice. I think I have the best job in the world and I absolutely love helping my clients find strategies and solutions that make sense for them! I typically work with teenagers and women who are going through life changes. They find themselves needing some additional help to solve problems or support to see it through.

As your counselor, I will be a partner in developing appropriate treatment plans that accomplish established goals. I believe that human development is a lifelong process and personality and behavior changes are possible at any time. I also believe in the need for a flexible multicultural approach and that the counselor and client are equal partners.

I love working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I have worked with people from various backgrounds and cultures throughout my career and these experiences help me to easily connect with my clients.

Being a Marriage and Family Therapist, I fundamentally believe the family is a system and if something is going on with one person in the family, it will likely affect other members of the family. As such we are products of our environment.

Hi there, I'm Katherine, a South Texas native currently residing in San Antonio, TX. I'm a licensed professional counselor with a Masters of Education in Counseling and Guidance from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. With over five years of clinical experience, I've supported incredible individuals like yourself facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, and more.

I am an experienced counselor with a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision and over 17 years of counseling experience in various settings: schools, non-profit counseling centers, and private practice.

Through targeted therapies like Prolonged Exposure, I can help you build lasting resilience, reclaim control, and find a clear path toward long-term wellness.

You're the one everyone relies on-the one who holds it all together, shows up, and keeps going even when you're exhausted. On the outside, things may look fine. On the inside, you might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns you can't seem to break. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone, and you don't have to keep doing it this way. I have extensive experience in supporting individuals, couples, and families in their most vulnerable moments. I bring a calm, grounded presence to situations of anxiety, trauma, and emotional distress.

My practice, Luna Encadenada Psychotherapy, reflects my ancestral roots and the values that guide my work. "Luna," my paternal grandmother's maiden name, evokes healing, cycles, and intuition. "Encadenada," derived from my maternal grandfather's surname, symbolizes strength through connection to self, family, and something greater.
