Transforming Your Pain into Power: Therapy with Rebecca
Meet Your Therapist: Rebecca Flores, LPC
Hey there, I’m Rebecca-therapist for deep thinkers and quiet rebels.
I specialize in helping thoughtful, creative people - insightful empaths and quiet leaders - heal trauma, untangle attachment wounds, and ease anxiety and people pleasing, without losing the sharp, caring parts of themselves.
When You’re Always “On” and Feeling Every Nuance
You’ve always noticed more than most. You think deeply, your feelings run deep, and you carry a kind of attunement that others don’t always understand.
Your empathy is powerful, but it’s also exhausting when it goes unchecked.
You’ve spent a lifetime absorbing everyone else’s emotions and expectations, anticipating needs, overdelivering. You’re self-aware and often reflective to a fault…but somewhere along the way, you lost your footing.
And now…
➜ You’re craving balance between giving and receiving.
➜ You excel at analyzing - but sometimes your own mind feels like the toughest puzzle.
➜ You sometimes struggle to set boundaries without guilt.
➜ You’ve been through hard things: trauma, relationships that didn’t feel safe or fulfilling, emotionally chaotic environments-and it still echoes.
➜ You crave peace, clarity, and permission to just be without overthinking everything.
You Don’t Have to do This Solo
I’m the founder and owner of Vita Counseling Center, where I support deep thinkers, creatives, helpers, and fellow therapists in healing attachment pain, regulating their nervous system, working through past trauma, and finally feeling like themselves again…calmer, clearer, and more connected.
Here, your insight and complexity are always honored and never boxed-in.
You don’t have to earn your worth here. There’s no performance, no pressure, and no need to explain the parts of you that others didn’t understand. This is a space where your nervous system gets to breath.
And, whether you’re in San Antonio or elsewhere in Texas, therapy with me is available both in-person and online.
Recognize Yourself Here?
⇻ You’ve been the “strong one” for so long that letting yourself unravel feels vulnerable, foreign…even though you need it.
⇻ You give, and give, and give but rarely feel seen.
⇻ You carry it all in silence, convinced your needs are burdensome.
⇻ You feel like your sensitivity or depth are flaws.
⇻ You’ve tiptoed around conflict to keep the peace…but it’s costing you your own.
⇻ You have unresolved trauma, but you’ve never really had the space to process it.
You’re more than your struggles. You’re not failing. You’re just ready to heal…and I’m here for that.
Who Works Best with Me?
Those Who Find Their Rhythm Here Tend to Be:
Insightful, thoughtful, open-minded and ready to go beyond surface-level coping. They’re not looking for advice from a script…they want depth, realness, and transformation that sticks.
My past clients have included: writers, artists, therapists, advocates, musicians, professors, researchers, designers, and other clinicians - people who care deeply, think deeply, and crave a life that feels steady, true, and alive with passion.
You’ll Feel Most Aligned Working With Me If:
→ You’re open (or willing to be). You don’t need to have it all figured out, you just need to be curious.
→ You’re ready. Not perfect. Not polished. Just ready to show up and be honest.
→ You’re engaged. You want insight, change, and healing.
→ You’re reflective. You think about your patterns, notice how your body holds stress, and are open to connecting the dots.
→ You take ownership. You know healing can’t be outsourced. But you don’t want to do this alone anymore.
This isn’t passive work. It’s powerful, sometimes messy, and deeply human. And while I can’t do the work for you, I’ll walk beside you with steady, grounding, unwavering support every step of the way.
We’ll do the deeper healing work, so you’re not held in these same patterns a year…or ten…from now.
Here’s What I Bring to Attachment-Focused Therapy:
-
Attachment-Based Therapy
For the pleasers, fixers, and overfunctioners. We’ll untangle old patterns and build more fulfilling relationships.
-
Trauma-Informed Therapy
This goes beyond coping skills. It’s not just about symptom relief. We’ll work toward lasting, embodied change.
-
A Comfortable Space
For those who’ve been told they’re “too sensitive,” “too intense,” or just “too different.” This space honors all of you.
What Therapy Is Like with Me
Therapy with me is real. It’s warm, deep, and personal. We’ll laugh and we’ll do the kind of work that sticks.
→ Warm & Real - A gentle challenger, deeply empathetic, curious, open-minded, with a good sense of humor because laughter’s important.
Therapy should feel grounding, honest, and alive - not sterile.
→ Depth-Oriented - We go beyond the surface, untangling the deep patterns driving what’s keeping you stalled.
→ Empowering & Personalized - This is your space. Your pace. Your path.
→ Culturally Sensitive & Inclusive - I welcome clients of all backgrounds and identities. If inclusion isn’t a shared value, we may not be a good fit, and that’s okay.
→ Trauma-Informed & Research-Backed - I integrate EMDR, Attachment-Based Therapy, Somatic-Based Therapy, Brainspotting, Narrative Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Hypnotherapy.
→ It’s a nerdy, research-backed toolbox designed to help you heal on every level.
This isn’t self-help fluff. It’s radical, real, and deeply self-honoring.
How Long Will Therapy Last?
⥇ Healing takes time, but we’ll focus on lasting transformation, not quick fixes.
⥇ I know you want relief yesterday, and trust me, I want that for you, too. But we’ll focus on healing the root, not just slapping on coping strategies & skills and calling it a day.
⥇ Therapy will only last as long as you need to reach your goals.
⥇ Sessions are 50 minutes, customized to your unique needs.
You deserve to feel free, confident, and deeply at peace.
