ANTONIO IS NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AS OF DECEMBER 2022

Hello! I want to start by saying Thank you! Thank you for visting and Thank you for supporting my business and my dream. 

 You will soon find out that my approach to counseling is unique and distinct from other therapists you may have seen in the past. I'm a huge fan of getting to the ROOT of your problem rather than just discussing the surface-level issues you present with. The truth is, much of who we are as individuals is stored in our unconscious mind and if we're trying to make changes or heal something about our past, it's not going to get resolved by simply talking through things with our conscious minds. That's why I like to focus on digging deeper into what lies beneath so that we can gain more insight into how these issues developed and ultimately work towards finding meaningful solutions for them. 

 I'm Upfront, Intuitive and Completely Real with everyone I come into contact with. I believe in being honest and direct while still respecting the feelings of others. My goal is to always be on YOUR TEAM - no matter what you're going through or facing, I will do my best to support what is in your highest good. Whether it's providing advice or just being a listening ear, I'm here for you every step of the way. 

 I specialize in working with clients who are ready to take a deep dive into themselves and uncover the true essence of their being. I understand that transformation and change can be difficult, but I am here to help guide you through it. If you are looking for support as you work towards finding yourself again, then we are going to have an amazing journey together.  I also do great work with couples who want to invest in their marriage and make meaningful changes. If this is something that resonates with you both, then there's no doubt that our time spent together will be incredibly rewarding! 

 I am highly knowledgeable in a wide range of theoretical models, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Theory, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Gestalt Theory, Symbolic-Experiential Psychology and Spiritual approaches. Through my experience with these different theories I have developed an understanding of the various techniques used to help individuals achieve their desired outcomes. Each approach has its own strengths and weaknesses that must be taken into account when considering which one is best suited for a particular situation or client. Additionally, I have gained insight into how to combine elements from multiple modalities in order to create an individualized treatment plan tailored specifically for each person's needs. 

Raised Catholic, I was exposed to religion at a very young age and as a young adult began studying various religions and  spiritual practices.  In 2007, I received my Masters Degree from Hope International University, a Christian University in Fullerton, California.

Since then, I have continued my training which include expertises in the areas of:

• Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist-Supervisor
• Holds Licenses to practice in Texas and California
• Administrator of The North Texas Mental Health Professionals Group
• Clinical Hypnosis (Trained in Ericksonian and Krasner Method)
• Intuitive Psychotherapy
• Journey Work
