Michelle S. Saunders, LMFT, Marriage & Family Therapist in San Antonio, TX

About

My therapy incorporates support, respect, psychoeducation, teaching communication skills, and understanding through building trust so that together we accomplish your goals so you can live your best life. My focus has been on relationship conflict and communication-building skills, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorders, and many other symptoms of mental health discomfort. I work through Solution-Focused and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques while seeking other treatments that you find effective. I specialize in families, couples, and individuals.
I graduated with an MS in Psychology from Our Lady of the Lake University, and hold an Executive Certificate while enrolled in my PhD in Developmental Psychology at LU. In my preparation to be a psychotherapist, I learned to be unbiased, non-judgemental, and equality for all because everyone's story is unique. I am here to understand your story and bring to light the future hope it entails.
