13+ years helping emotionally attuned, reflective professionals, creatives, and therapists heal trauma and reconnect with themselves

Your empathy is powerful, but exhausting when it goes unchecked.

You’ve spent a lifetime absorbing emotions and expectations, anticipating needs, overdelivering. You’re self-aware and reflective…but somewhere along the way, you lost your footing.

And now…

You crave balance between giving and receiving.

You excel at analyzing - but sometimes your mind feels like the toughest puzzle.

Boundaries feel heavy with guilt.

You’ve been through hard experiences: trauma, difficult relationships, a tough childhood.

You crave peace, clarity, and permission to just be without overthinking everything.

You Don’t Have to do This Solo

I’m the founder of Vita Counseling Center, where I support deep thinkers, creatives, and fellow therapists heal: attachment pain, regulate their nervous system, work through trauma, and finally feel like themselves again…calm, clear-minded, 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 breathe.

At heart, I’m a trauma and attachment therapist.

Whether your pain shows up as anxiety, people pleasing, perfectionism, old wounds from childhood, or exhaustion from feeling everything, our work together will help you heal the root, not just the symptoms.

And, whether you’re in San Antonio or elsewhere in Texas, therapy with me is available both in-person and online.

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.

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 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 what you’re struggling with. You're ready to be free to be yourself again and I'm here for that.

Who Works Best with Me?

You’ll feel at home here if you’re:

Open-minded and ready to go deeper than quick fixes.

Some of my past clients have included: writers, artists, therapists, advocates, musicians, professors, researchers, designers, and healthcare professionals - 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 curious - you don’t need everything figured out, just a willingness to show up honestly.

You’re ready. Not perfect. Not polished. Just ready to show up and be honest.

You’re engaged and reflective. You think about your patterns and want lasting change.

You’re willing to take an active role in your healing.

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 Trauma Therapy:

    A Comfortable Space

    For those who’ve been told they’re too sensitive, too intense, or too different. This space is for you.

What Therapy Is Like with Me

Therapy together will be real, 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 matters).

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, and Trauma-Informed Hypnotherapy.

It’s a research-backed toolbox designed to help you heal on every level.

This isn’t self-help fluff. It’s freeing, 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.

FAQ : Therapy with Rebecca Flores, LPC

  • Sessions are warm, collaborative, and shaped by your pace. I blend somatic, trauma, and attachment therapies and techniques, so you feel steady, connected, and supported along the way.

  • No, not at first. I won’t push you before you feel safe enough to go there. We’ll build trust first. When you’re ready, we’ll do the deeper healing work so you’re not held back by old wounds.

  • We won’t just “check-in about how your week’s going” week after week. I’m trained in trauma-focused, attachment-based methods (like EMDR, Brainspotting, Trauma-Informed Hypnotherapy, and somatic work) that help your mind and body release what needs releasing, so healing actually lasts.

    That said, life continues happening while you’re in therapy, and sometimes you might run into something that needs to be processed and talked through when we meet for session.

    Therapy with me is flexibleand also focuses on what you want and need in therapy.

  • Each person’s healing timeline is unique to them. We’ll talk about your personal therapy goals and check in regularly to make sure therapy feels useful and aligned with what you need.

  • If you tend to be reflective, open-minded, and feel ready to do real healing (not just get advice), we may be a good fit! You don’t have to have it all together - just an openness to go deeper and a willingness to show up for yourself.
