I believe that change occurs through exploration of feelings, awareness of thoughts, and a commitment toward healthy behaviors. My philosophy for counseling is based on a cognitive behavioral approach. What this means is that many times the feelings we have and the emotions we experience are directly related to our thoughts. If we can change how we think, we can change how we feel. This isn't to say that the events in our life are not significant; but rather, examining how we view these events, the relationships in our lives, and the expectations we have for ...

Having a hard time selecting a therapist in Balcones Heights? (Here Is How Our Balcones Heights Therapists Can Help)

First, research what type of therapy you’d like to pursue BEFORE trying to find a therapist or psychologist. Maybe that’s psychodynamic, cognitive behavior therapy, group therapy, family therapy, or couple’s counseling; just pick the Balcones Heights therapist that is right for your needs. Next consider whether the gender of your therapist matters, the types of therapy they're most experienced with, and then finally choose a therapist located near you in the city of Balcones Heights, or elsewhere in the Bexar county or state of Texas.
What is the cost difference between conventional therapy and working with one of our listed therapists above?
The United States has many therapists who are comfortable charging $200 or more per session, and in some instances you might find that the average price of a therapy session in Balcones Heights, TX ranges from $85-$150.
Some therapists in the state of Texas will work on a sliding scale, meaning they’ll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session.

How to know if therapy is right for you?
One of the rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is that they are listening to your feelings. Our friends and loved ones often hear us, but they may have a hard time providing objective guidance in the way a therapist can; which can be extremely valuable due to the fact that many therapists have experience helping others through similar difficult times.
A therapist wants to support you toward a healthier emotional state, no matter what you're dealing with (including behavioral health concerns, grief, anxiety, depression or stress). In addition to developing healthier emotions, another benefit of therapy is you have a safe space to discuss problems that you may be hesitant to talk about with people in your everyday life.
Many people have sensitive topics to discuss; possibly an addiction or an issue with their relationship that they’re ashamed to speak about with their friends and/or partner. A Balcones Heights therapist can help you confront these kinds of issues and find ways to face them and heal.
