Are you looking for a change? Does your relationship need help? Are you dealing with depression, loss or anxiety? I have over 17 years of experience helping adults, families and adolescents develop strengths, regain confidence and create brighter futures. I provide an environment of safety, privacy and acceptance where you can express your thoughts, feelings and experiences.
For as long as I can remember, I've wanted to be a counselor. I have no idea why, but even as an adolescent, I was drawn to people and trying to help figure out what makes them tick. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the most important part of the counseling experience. Both client and counselor need to feel that the environment is a safe space, allowing the therapeutic process to take place.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who served as an Iraq combat Veteran. My life long goal is to help break down the stigma that has been instilled in our military service members, veterans, and first responders, preventing us from seeking help with our mental health needs. I believe life can be challenging for all of us and often presents us with obstacles that prevent us from living life to the fullest.

When going through situations in life one comes across things that are sometimes too great for just one person to maneuver through. I was recommended Balance Counseling from friends that have used this company to help them with their situations, I needed assistance with my child and was called back right away and recommended Mylene Mackey. She has helped both me and my daughter in so many ways, I can't thank her enough for the wonderful ways she has been working with my daughter. There's such a marked improvement in her positivity and life that I see in her since starting counseling. I recommend

Madhu is my counselor and I don’t even know where to begin. From her timeliness, flexibility, attention to detail to the actual work she does with me, everything is entirely above and beyond. She is truly unlike anyone I’ve worked with. The admin team always does a great job of calling to confirm the appointment. I sincerely recommend Balanced Counseling and Madhu to anyone looking for guidance.

I highly recommend this practice to those struggling with mental health issues. The environment was calm inviting and I felt at ease from the moment I walked in. My Therapist was warm, listened and provided me with a great introduction to the therapy process. I’m excited to return and begin the process of improving my life and gaining control over my anxiety.

I don't appreciate that when I booked my appointment I asked for someone older and was given a counselor that was my age. I also really don't appreciate that I wasn't able to make my appointment yesterday and due to thier 48hr cancelation policy I was still charged $75 dollars. How do you think this makes me feel? I was looking for a place I could put my TRUST and you broke that not once but TWICE. I Feel worse than I did before and I don't even have the money to book a session with anyone else until NEXT month. So thanks for making my issues feel magnified for nothing. 0 out of 5 stars if I could

This counseling service is a great resource for myself and family since moving to San Antonio. Counselors have helped my family overcome several life challenges and helped us to thrive as individuals. Using insurance, the service is affordable. The office is very nice and inviting. The counselors are consistent with follow up and follow through. I would highly recommend Steven Flint.

Very friendly group. I talked with Myra about the needs of my child and about which therapist would be a good fit for him. She did a great first appointment, assessing my son and really listening to both his concerns and mine. It has been a great fit so far. I would really recomend Balanced Counseling for anyone who has a child struggling with anxiety.
