Therapists in San Antonio, TX

I know each person’s journey to healing is distinct and unique; and it is my privilege to offer support; guidance; and transformation to those who seek help. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I completed my Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in Social Work Degrees at Stephen F. Austin State University. A large part of my experience has focused on clients experiencing chronic health issues; HIV/AIDS; anxiety; depression; and abuse/neglect. When treating clients I combine a compassionate; holistic; eclectic; and person-centered approach to help clients address their specific needs/goals.

Greetings! My name is Frederica Johnson; and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I am also a National Certified Counselor. I have worked in the mental health field for over 13 years and my expertise is related to working with individuals who are experiencing grief; relationship issues; anxiety; depression; mood disorders; anger; self-esteem issues; etc. I specialize in working with all ages.

Veronica’s goal is to help others grow; regain peace; joy and healing in their lives by providing empathy; encouragement and support. She helps her clients define the tools needed to overcome obstacles; deescalate situations; make better choices and negotiate positive outcomes to be the best they can be via individual virtual counseling.

The foundation of my therapeutic approach rests on compassion; openness; empathy; and connection. Growth is possible in an environment that nurtures trust and honesty. I believe the best thing you can bring to therapy is authenticity. In so many areas of our lives we’re supposed to perform a role: spouse; employee; friend; parent – the list of our expected behavior can seem endless. In therapy; you’re free to be yourself. I want to meet the real you and in return; I promise to bring acceptance; consideration; and humor along with evidence-based practices.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with twenty-eight years of clinical experience. I have worked as a therapist and administrator in inpatient and outpatient psychiatry settings. In addition; I have worked as a therapist in a residential dual disorders treatment setting. I believe in and apply the principles of Person-Centered Psychotherapy with each client; especially those of never being judgmental; having unconditional positive regard; and striving to always be genuine and transparent.

Life brings distressing events that threaten your ambition and goals; eventually making you feel helpless and unsafe with overwhelming feelings. I seek to be part of your life journey to harness tumultuous events and emotions and turn them into opportunities for wellness and success. Each person is unique and endowed with priceless dignity. My goal is to help you flourish in your given potential and to enjoy your personality. My doctoral studies on traumatology would facilitate trauma healing; adaptive engaging in life; and boosting your confidence and self-esteem for a rewarding joyous journey.

Sometimes it’s hard to remember that you don’t need to go through the journey of creating your ideal-self alone. I will use my multicultural background and LGBTQ+ friendly approach to personalize your therapeutic experience to fit your needs as best as possible. Through my many years of experience in psychiatric; palliative care; and hospice settings; I have worked with depression; anxiety; grief; chronic pain and illnesses; mood disorders; and difficult life transitions.
