You’re the one everyone leans on. Reliable. Thoughtful. Insightful.

You’re not the problem. You’re layered, perceptive, quietly running on reserves…and long overdue for care.

Healing That Fits You - Not the Other Way Around

You’re wired to notice the invisible.

Strength doesn’t mean shouldering it all alone.

I work with those who think deeply, feel deeply, and live a little differently than the world expects. Sensitivity is your strength, but it can also feel like a heavy weight. If any of these echo your own experience, you’ve found a place that gets it:

  • Notice the tiniest shifts in people’s moods - and carry them as if they were your responsibility.

  • Replay conversations at 2 a.m., wondering if you said the wrong thing.

  • Give so much of yourself because it comes so naturally, yet rarely feel replenished.

  • Crave deep, meaningful relationships but struggle with trust, boundaries, and feeling emotionally safe, leaving your nervous system confused.

  • Tie your worth to achievements, impossibly high standards, and productivity, and having to stay composed, no matter the pressure beneath.

  • Feel waves of loss hit at unexpected times - leaving you raw and disoriented.

  • Carry unresolved trauma, grief, and anxiety - old wounds and attachment patterns have a way of leaving fingerprints on your present.

This doesn’t mean you’re flawed, fragile, or too intense - even if it feels like it. You’re just working from old survival strategies. They helped you once, but now they tug at your relationships and your peace.

Therapy is where we gently untangle them and create space for connection, relief, a clearer sense of who you are, how you want to live - and an aliveness that isn’t borrowed from survival mode.

Your depth is a gift, not a glitch.

You’ve learned how to hold everything…others’ emotions, your own past, the pressure to always show up strong. Therapy is where you don’t have to hold it all alone. And little by little, you’ll learn to hold yourself differently too, without carrying the old weight.

Counseling for Overthinking, Overgiving, and Overperforming

Anxiety, avoidance, people pleasing, and boundary struggles often stem from early attachment wounds and unresolved trauma - and they’re signals your inner self is asking for care.

➳ You deeply absorb everything. You’re not just sensitive, you’re perceptive. Therapy helps you embrace these traits as the gifts they are, and learn new how to feel grounded when it all feels too big.

➳ People Pleasing & Boundaries? Putting others first is second nature, but it’s also draining. We’ll work on saying no without the guilt trip.

➳ You crave connection but fear being fully seen. Past trauma, attachment wounds, and anxiety make it hard to trust and feel safe in relationships. Let’s explore the root of this fear and reshape how you relate to others.

➳ Old wounds and patterns still pull the strings. Whether it’s: childhood trauma, sexual trauma, medical trauma, religious or spiritual trauma, complex trauma, emotionally neglectful environments, grief, or attachment trauma, attachment-focused therapy supports you in untangling old blocks and moving forward.

What Counseling with Me Feels Like

My therapy approach is deeply human and relational - This mean the work is grounded in our relationship, our fit/vibe/connection, and how we feel working together.

You’re not just another client, and sessions won’t feel like just another appointment.

Warm, down-to-earth, and real. No judgment. Just deep, meaningful healing.

A little humorous (It’s okay to laugh in therapy!). We’ll do deep work, but I’m not afraid to bring humor into sessions. Healing is serious, but it doesn’t always have to feel so heavy.

Creative, outside the box & somatic. This isn’t about endlessly circling your pain. We’ll work with it, move through it, and unravel what’s been holding you back, at a pace that honors your nervous system. I weave in mind and body-based tools and techniques that make healing feel more alive, connected, and effective.

Insightful & deep. We’ll get to the root of things, not just put a Band-Aid on it all.

Meet Your Therapist, Rebecca Flores, LPC

Hey, I’m Rebecca!

A therapist for deep thinkers and emotionally intelligent human beings, who crave depth, connection, and authenticity.

I speak your language.

I specialize in attachment-based trauma therapy for those navigating PTSD, trauma, anxiety, the urge to please and keep performing, and attachment style wounds.

As a deeply feeling and thinking person, I get what it’s like to move through the world in an introspective kind of way. I believe healing is imperfect, nonlinear, and deeply human. Here, you’ll be met with warmth, curiosity, strength, and a dash of humor…because you deserve that kind of care.

You don’t need to explain away your feelings, overperform, or shrink your story. This is a space where the full version of you is welcome.

Therapies I Use:

  • Integrating present-focused insight with exploration of unconscious patterns, early relationships, and symbolic meaning to create lasting change.

  • Healing relationship wounds & pain, and building secure attachments, relationships, and connections.

  • Working with you as a whole person - at the intersection of your relationships, body, mind, spirit, and nervous system - while supporting your choices about medical and psychiatric care.

  • Reprocessing and integrating traumatic memories while easing their emotional intensity, releasing symptoms held in the body, and rewiring unhelpful beliefs.

  • Accessing deep healing through focused, absorbed attention using guided imagery to shift patterns rooted in trauma.

  • Understanding and integrating the different “parts” of yourself that carry emotions, beliefs, and memories.

  • Helping your body and nervous system shift out of survival states and into regulation.

Therapy with an attachment-based focus goes deeper than surface fixes.

It’s about creating the kind of shifts you can actually feel in your daily life:

  • Feeling rooted in connection, with yourself and with others.

  • Setting boundaries that protect your energy, without drowning in guilt.

  • Quieting the noise of the past so you can hear own voice again.

  • Finding moments of calm where the waves don’t feel as overwhelming.

  • Letting go of the endless pressure to perform, achieve, or please.

  • Reclaiming rest, clarity, and confidence that lets you move through the world on your own terms.

This is therapy that honors who you are, as you are.

FAQ: Attachment-Focused Trauma Therapy

What You Might Be Wondering

I know finding the right therapist can be a task and may feel vulnerable. You deserve to be informed and feel at ease. Here are a few answers to help you decide whether we might be a good fit.

  • It’s a relational therapy where healing happens through a trusting connection with me as your therapist.

    Together, we’ll explore how early relationships shaped your patterns and work through old wounds. The goal is to build safety, calm your nervous system, and help you create more secure connections, with yourself and others.

  • Attachment trauma comes from experiences that shake your sense of safety and connection as a child- things like emotional neglect, inconsistent or unavailable parents or caregivers, abandonment, loss, or living with parents or caregivers who were emotionally distant, critical, or unpredictable.

    These early wounds can still influence how you relate to yourself and others today.

  • It can make trust feel tricky or fragile, boundaries hard to set, and safety tough to find. You might notice patterns like people pleasing, avoidance, or anxiety popping up in your closest connections.

    Therapy helps you understand these patterns and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

  • If you’re a deep thinker, creative soul, or emotionally attuned person carrying trauma, anxiety, or attachment wounds - especially if people pleasing or boundary setting struggles wear you down - this therapy can support you in feeling steadier and more yourself.

  • Unlike therapies that mainly tackle symptoms, attachment-focused therapy dives into your relational patterns and early attachment experiences.

    It blends emotional exploration with somatic and nervous system tools to help you feel more at ease and connected with yourself, in your body, and in your relationships.

  • Yes! I offer online therapy across Texas and online and in-person sessions in San Antonio, TX.

  • Therapy will only take as long as the goals you’ve decided for yourself need.

    Many clients notice meaningful shifts within a few months, but we move at your pace, honoring your readiness and needs.

  • It’s natural to feel nervous. While my clients are ready to do the deeper trauma work, therapy unfolds at a pace that feels best and most manageable for you.

    We’ll build trust and move forward with compassion and care - always honoring your boundaries as we work toward healing.

If these answers resonate with you, let’s talk. I offer a complimentary phone consult so we can explore working together.
