I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in San Antonio, Texas, offering bilingual (English/Spanish) telehealth therapy to adults across Texas through my solo practice, Socorro Counseling.
My approach is existential-relational at its core — grounded in the belief that anxiety, depression, and relational pain are not pathologies to be corrected but invitations to examine how we’re living. I integrate CBT, DBT, and ACT as practical tools within that relational container, with person-centered presence as the foundation of everything I do.
I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ adults, high achievers, neurodivergent individuals, creatives and performers, and men — particularly those navigating the gap between how they present to the world and who they actually are. Much of my work lives in that space: the performing versus the allowing.
Politically, I operate from an affirming, anti-oppressive framework that recognizes how systems of power — racism, heteronormativity, cisnormativity, ableism — shape psychological experience. I don’t treat identity as incidental to clinical work; it’s central. I’m particularly attuned to the compounding pressures faced by queer and trans clients in politically hostile environments, including the ongoing legislative climate in Texas.
As a bilingual provider, I’m committed to reducing language as a barrier to affirming care for Spanish-speaking LGBTQ+ communities.
I hold the National Certified Counselor (NCC) credential and my practice is LGBTBE®-certified through the NGLCC.
