It is the mission of the Anxiety and Depression Support (ADS) Group of Boerne to provide a welcoming and safe place for those suffering from this extremely common and treatable illness to find the support and love they need as they navigate through and recover from the issues of anxiety and depression.
Adoption, abandonment, child advocacy and welfare present unique challenges and issues that require a particular understanding, empathy and compassion to address.
The presence and love of God for those who are forgotten and discarded purposefully is in acute and constant demand. Jesus is there for them all, but the guilt, shame and secrets perpetuated by families can be oppressive and cruel. I believe it is all in my calling to reach, teach, love and lead in this topic.

The Grief Recovery Method® (GRM) Alumni Program is a continuation of your grief recovery journey. You learned relationships will always have their ups and downs, but now you have the tools to navigate through any new relationship. However, we have identified the more relationships you work on in your healing journey (recommend at least 4), the more freedom from buried pain you are able to attain and the more connection in your current and future relationships you will experience.
As you walk into new uncharted territory or perhaps into a bothersome familiar territory from the past, your Alumni work will serve as an offensive and defensive barrier to address any unrelenting triggers, losses, lies and not 'lose territory' on the gains you have made.
The more relationships you complete, the more familiar you will become with triggers and access the tools and skills you have obtained to take corrective action. You are building up your "arsenal" to a wholesome foundation of emotional skills for your overall health.
Higinia will walk you through these steps and also establish a post-plan of action with you to continue to move through and beyond grief. You can also access the ASSaP Care™ tool available to you.
The program is offered in person or virtual via a secure, confidential, video platform. Your privacy and confidentiality are our priority. We can talk about what works best for your schedule.

Common Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder
The primary components of Bipolar Disorder represent a spectrum of symptoms that generally fit into two categories: depressive symptoms and mania. While an individual may not have a clear “episode” of either depression or mania, there must be a period of time in which both of these symptoms exist in succession in order to fall within the Bipolar Disorder spectrum.
Depressive symptoms typically include lack of energy, feelings of hopelessness, muscle soreness, lack of concentration, and a significant decrease in interest in previously enjoyed activities.
Mania is generally thought of as an increase in positive or “up” feelings, but it will also likely include bursts of energy, intense focus on specific activities, impulsivity, irritability, or hypersexuality.
In all of these cases, these symptoms are very rarely only experienced for a short period of time, but generally last at least a number of days or weeks.
Treatment for Bipolar Disorder and Counseling Options
There are traditional two parts to treating Bipolar Disorder Type I or Type II: medical intervention and psychotherapy. While many choose not to use medication management options, this would require strict use of routine and proactive therapeutic treatments to be as effective.
If the depressive and manic symptoms continue to increase in their severity, including suicidal thoughts or extremely risky behaviors, hospitalization or higher levels of care may need to be considered.
Following a reduction in symptoms, the underlying cause is generally treated using Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), or cognitive-based therapy in conjunction with medicinal interventions, depending on the severity.

Children & Adolescent therapy helps children and young people explore any concerns that may be causing problems in their social, emotional or cognitive development. Children's primary language is PLAY.
Play Therapy involves the use of toys, blocks, dolls, puppets, drawings, and games to help the child recognize, identify, and verbalize feelings. This approach provides an opportunity for children to express difficult or confused feelings in a safe environment with clear boundaries.
During Children & Adolescent therapy our therapists will observe how your child uses play materials and identifies themes or patterns to understand your child's struggles. Through a combination of talk and play your child will have an opportunity to better understand and manage their conflicts, feelings, and behaviors.

Teletherapy: also called telepsychology, telehealth or telemedicine—involves speaking with a licensed mental health professional remotely. Right now, most teletherapy is done via video chat. At the CCS we use video chat as well audio chat. Most cell phones will enable you to connect with us with video or audio only.
Individual Counseling: The CCS staff welcomes individuals who want to improve their quality of life. We help you narrow your goal to be achievable and tackle an issue where you feel stuck and need additional ideas to move forward. Our goal is to help you recognized some of your existing strengths that you may be overlooking. Some people hesitate to come to therapy because their community may see seeking help as having stigma. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) finds mental health issues are common in the US particularly now during the pandemic. NIMH identified that a one in five adults may be affected and would benefit from individual therapy.
Couples Counseling: The CCS staff welcomes couples who are dealing with challenges in their relationships. We are happy to work with all types of couples and are LGBTQ+ friends and allies. We provide couples counseling in both English and Spanish.
Family Therapy: The CCS staff welcomes individuals and families from all walks of life who are dealing with personal and family struggles, intimacy issues, and parental concerns. Our goal is to facilitate creative solutions that can result in personal growth and well-being, healthier relationships, good parenting skills, and better communication with those whom you value.
Psychological Testing: We offer strengths-based assessment services for children, adolescents and adults. Assessment services provide an evaluation of intellectual, learning, emotional and/or behavioral functioning to streamline treatment planning. Evaluation reports highlight clients' relative strengths, abilities, and interests as well as identifying areas that may require attention, training, and/or educational support to assist in preparation for school and work success.
One-at-a-Time Counseling: Many people find that a single session of counseling helps to get them started in a new direction. The focus of the single session is on your greatest worry, challenge or difficulty, and what you want to achieve from the meeting. Our aim is for you to leave the session with some ideas or strategies to try out. At CCS, you can schedule a One-at-a-Time session or you can be seen in an unscheduled session at certain times of the week. These sessions can be in person, telephone or virtual. They are available for individuals, couples and families. Some find that their one session is enough for now. Some decide to access a future scheduled or unscheduled One-at-a-Time session. Additional service options can be discussed with your therapist at the time of the session.

Crisis Text Line serves anyone, in any type of crisis, providing access to free, 24/7 support via a medium people already use and trust: text.
How Does it Work?
(1) First, you’re in a crisis. Crisis doesn’t just mean thinking about ending your own life. It’s any painful emotion and anytime you need support. So, you text us at 741741.
Your opening message can say anything. Keywords like HOME, START and HELLO just help us identify how people hear about us.
(2) The first two responses are automated. They tell you that you’re being connected with a Crisis Counselor and invite you to share a bit more.
The Crisis Counselor is a trained volunteer, not a professional. They can provide support, but not medical advice.
(3) It usually takes less than five minutes to connect you with a Crisis Counselor. (It may take longer during high-traffic times).
When you’ve reached a Crisis Counselor, they’ll introduce themselves, reflect on what you’ve said, and invite you to share at your own pace.
(4) You’ll then text back and forth with the Crisis Counselor. You never have to share anything you don’t want to.
The Crisis Counselor will help you sort through your feelings by asking questions, empathizing, and actively listening.
(5) The conversation typically ends when you and the Crisis Counselor both feel comfortable deciding that you’re in a safe place mentally and emotionally.
After the conversation, you’ll receive an optional survey about your experience. This helps us help you and others like you!
(6) The goal of any conversation is to get you to a calm, safe place.
Sometimes that means providing you with a referral to further help, and sometimes it just means being there and listening. A conversation usually lasts anywhere from 15-45 minutes.

EMDR THERAPY
Traumatic events and bad memories can stick with you and leave you feeling very isolated. With Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy you can face those memories in a safe, non-invasive way.
This is a structured therapy that will have you focus on a memory while performing eye movements. This will work to reduce the intensity and emotion linked to the memory. EMDR is extensively researched and effective in helping people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms.
LENS Neurofeedback
Our brains are very active all the time, always processing information. When things like stress, trauma, and anxiety are happening everyday certain areas of the brain begin to slow down.
LENS, standing for Low Energy Neurofeedback system, targets those suppressed parts of the brain to get them back to functioning properly.
LENS is completely safe and can help minimize symptoms of depression and anxiety and get you back to feeling like yourself.
$150 Couples, EMDR Therapy 60 min session
$600 LENS Therapy (includes 6 treatments)

People struggling with disordered eating often become obsessed with food, body image, and/or weight. If you or someone you love has developed secretive, extreme, or ritualized food or eating habits, were are here to talk.
Eating Disorders can be real, life-threatening mental illnesses. No one chooses to suffer, but people do choose to get better. Eating disorders are real, complex, and can have serious consequences for health, productivity and relationships. They are not fads, phases or lifestyle choices.
Truth #1: Many people with eating disorders look healthy, yet may be extremely ill.
Truth #2: Families are not to blame, and can be the patients’ and providers’ best allies in treatment.
Truth #3: An eating disorder diagnosis is a health crisis that disrupts personal and family functioning.
Truth #4: Eating disorders are not choices, but serious biologically influenced illnesses.
Truth #5: Eating disorders affect people of all genders, ages, races, ethnicities, body shapes and weights, sexual orientations, and socioeconomic statuses.
Truth #6: Eating disorders carry an increased risk for both suicide and medical complications.

This resource guide was developed to provide mental health and suicide prevention resources.

The goals of this resource guide are:
- To increase understanding of mental health conditions and the treatment of mental health conditions in youth and young adults.
- To increase understanding of the problem of youth suicide, the risk factors that can lead to suicide, and the treatment and prevention of suicidal behavior in youth and young adults.

The topics covered in this resource guide are:
- The problem of youth and young adult suicide
- The role of teachers, administrators, parents, and guardians in suicide prevention
- Mental health conditions and other suicide risk factors

ADHD-Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurodevelopmental disorder in the world and one of the most common disorders of childhood, with a prevalence in school aged children of around 9 to 15 percent. It is more common in boys than girls (14% boys vs 6% in girls), and in 20-25% of cases it presents with psychiatric comorbidities (e.g. oppositional defiant disorder, anxiety, or depression). A diagnosis is generally made by a clinical interview of parents and kids, but it is preferable to diagnose after information is obtained from multiple settings. If not treated, there is a significant risk in terms of social functioning, school functioning, and occupational functioning. Click here more information.
Anxiety-is a normal response to a threat or to psychologic stress. Normal anxiety has its root in fear and serves an important survival function. When someone is faced with a dangerous situation, anxiety triggers the fight-or-flight response. With this response, a variety of physical changes, such as increased blood flow to the heart and muscles, provide the body with the necessary energy and strength to deal with life-threatening situations, such as running from an aggressive animal or fighting off danger. Click here for more information.
Depression-Depressed mood is common among children and adolescents. In some cases, the change in mood is temporary, triggered by stress, trauma, or major life changes. Other times, it becomes more persistent, causing changes in physical and mental functioning that worsen over time. When this is the case, the child or adolescent may be suffering from Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), commonly known as depression. Click here for more information.
Texas Child Health Access Through Telemedicine (TCHATT) provides telemedicine or telehealth programs to school districts to help identify and assess the behavioral health needs of children and adolescents and provide access to mental health services.
If you’re interested in joining TCHATT, please email us at [email protected] to see if it is available in your region. TCHATT is deploying first in those regions where an existing infrastructure can be expanded or a new infrastructure can be set up quickly.
Who Can Access TCHATT
TCHATT is not currently accessible to all students in Texas. On the map above, you can see if your school or school district is enrolled or soon-to-be enrolled.
When to Use TCHATT
Call TCHATT any time behaviors are seen or reported that have you concerned for a student’s mental health.
How to use TCHATT?
- Share your concern with your school’s designated TCHATT liaison, or refer the student to your school’s designated TCHATT liaison.
- The school TCHATT liaison will ensure required consent forms have been
signed by the appropriate party (i.e., student, parent, guardian). If the parent/ guardian agrees to TCHATT, the liaison will collect some basic information to share with TCHATT. - The school TCHATT liaison then calls TCHATT.
When the School TCHATT Liaison Calls TCHATT
- For urgent issues, further screening via telemedicine will be scheduled with the most appropriate TCHATT mental health specialist.
- For less urgent issues, we will schedule an assessment of the mental health needs.
- After a TCHATT Encounter, TCHATT staff may refer the student to a local pediatric psychiatrist or other mental health professional; a local pediatrician with support from pediatric psychiatry faculty; or the local mental health community center.

When someone’s life is interrupted by mental illness, it can be tough to see a practical way forward with day-to-day life, and a good future seems out of reach. Feelings of hopelessness begin to settle in. Fresh Hope serves as a bridge between someone’s diagnosis and living well in spite of their diagnosis.
Fresh Hope for Mental Health Groups are ongoing support groups for young adults and adults who have a mental health diagnosis and those who love them.
The groups are faith-based and sponsored by local churches and ministries or by the Fresh Hope International Office. Facilitators are trained and receive ongoing support from the International Fresh Hope Office.
Fresh Hope is based upon seven tenets/principles that we see as foundational for living well in spite of mental health diagnosis.
This group meets via Zoom. Contact via email for the link.
This group is for those with a mental health diagnosis and their loved ones.

Grief occurs any time we experience loss. It appears after a clear loss, like the death of a loved one, or a loss like a divorce or loss of identity. Grief is a natural, normal process to help us get through and process the experience.
If you are unsure whether you are experiencing grief or finding it challenging to work through bereavement, grief counseling can offer support and helpful ways to bring meaning to the loss and allow you to move forward through your grief.
Stages of Grief
Though grief looks different for everyone, there are generally two phases of the grieving process. Acute grief is the first phase and occurs immediately after the loss. Integrated grief is the second phase, once the loss becomes less intense and disruptive.
APPROCHES:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Family/Marital Therapy

- Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
- Mindfulness Based CBT
- Trauma Focused
- Christian Counseling

How can Unattended Grief Affect Organizations
Perhaps as a company or business owner you find yourself in uncharted territory when employees return to work still grieving from personal loss such as death, divorce, serious illness (self or loved one), injury, foster/adoption, crisis, natural disaster or even a recent company restructuring. This can cause a decline in workforce productivity, profitability and increased conflict and relational issues.
Being Grief and Trauma-Informed is caring for the mental, emotional, all-around well-being of your workforce and how your leadership team relates and communicates is at the core of a Compassion-Centered focus.
In 2018, the San Antonio's Mayor's Fitness Council and the Health Advisory Board created a Mental & Behavioral Health Tool Kit that showed when people are hurting, they are:
• Less productive

Benefits of Group Counseling
We’ve found that the most successful therapy is when you and your counselor work together to discover skills that fit your life and your goals. It’s not a cookie-cutter solution without relevant, meaningful solutions for you.
From the beginning of your counseling experience, your Green Mountain Counseling therapist will work with you to identify your needs and challenge any thoughts or practices that are no longer working for you. We encourage a direct, honest approach to therapy. That involves understanding the root cause of the issues in your life and addressing them as quickly as possible. Our counselors focus on instilling hope so you can get the life you’ve always wanted.
Offered Groups
Social Anxiety Therapy Group
This group is designed for anyone wanting to overcome social anxiety, learn skills for making new connections, or improve relationships. The group provides a space to work with others toward these goals. Our primary objectives will be to learn about anxiety and its effects on the brain and body, challenge our thinking, and practice new skills.
Green Mountain Counseling accepts the following major insurance carriers:
- Aetna
- Blue Cross Blue Shield
- ComPsych
- Humana

It's About Connection
Individuals who have never been in a group are often surprised to discover that they truly enjoy the experience and make significant strides they would not have otherwise made in individual therapy.

Typically, the program lasts 12 weeks, depending on individual progression. Our team will walk you from your initial phone call to having you join your first meeting, to ensure you always have support.

Group therapy is a form of therapy in which a small number of people meet together under the guidance of a professionally trained therapist to help themselves and one another. Group therapy involves one or more therapists who lead a group of roughly 5 to 15 patients. Some patients attend individual therapy in addition to groups, while others participate in groups only.
This is an opportunity to target a specific problem in a group setting, such as depression, eating disorders, panic disorders, social anxiety, chronic pain or substance abuse and more. Group Therapy is a great way to get professional help while gaining support from others in similar situations.
In group therapy our counselors will first evaluate each person ensuring they are a good fit. Then work together to create a safe, supportive, and cohesive space for the group to address personal, relationship and societal issues.

Initially developed as an anesthetic, ketamine has been rediscovered as a breakthrough treatment for depression and anxiety disorders when administered at low doses in combination with therapy. This treatment is designed to unlock therapeutic pathways as part of a broader care plan.
The Science Behind Ketamine
Ketamine targets specific brain receptors to promote new, healthy connections between nerve cells. Its effects include pain relief, relaxation, and more flexible thinking.
Over time, mental and physical illnesses put stress on the body, which leads to damaged synapses in the brain. Ketamine helps regenerate these neural pathways, creating the conditions for therapeutic growth and change.
Ketamine treatment, in combination with therapy and lifestyle changes, may help support new modes of thinking, feeling, and mood to improve quality of life and aide in healing from long-standing and hard-to-treat stress disorders such as treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, and PTSD.
Ketamine has been shown to be an effective treatment for a range of conditions, including depression and anxiety, but also PTSD, OCD, chronic pain, migraine, and fibromyalgia. Your provider can determine if you are a good candidate for Ketamine treatment, and whether this may be an optimal treatment for you.
