Greetings from Antero Teixeira Jr.,

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, trauma, grief, family conflict, or ongoing life stressors, you don’t have to face it alone. I provide compassionate, professional support to help you regain balance and move forward with confidence. I believe in meeting clients where they are and walking alongside them throughout their therapeutic journey.

With over 25 years of experience in social work and nearly 15 years in mental health counseling, I bring both clinical expertise and genuine care to every session. I take a great deal of pride in creating a safe, welcoming, and judgment-free space where you can openly explore your thoughts and emotions.

I promote a collaborative approach that focuses on helping you build practical coping strategies, strengthen resilience, and develop the tools you need to effectively manage symptoms and improve your overall well-being. With the right support, meaningful changes are possible.

Your goals matter. Your progress matters, so take the first step toward healing and growth today.

Living ain't easy, and these times are particularly intense. If it feels you need compassionate attention for what's bothering you, I can provide that support. I believe we each have all we need for our growth and understanding, but don’t always have the time or space to touch into our resources. I bring an open, person-centered approach to exploring your inner world while helping you find what's within you that can bring resolution. I have experience working w/ adults & youth and have worked with those experiencing depression, anxiety, substance addictions, trauma, relationship troubles, and parenting concerns.

I bring an eclectic, experiential approach that allows you to be a mirror to yourself. My own experience has taught me that awareness is the basis for all change. This conviction guides my practice; I seek approaches that will turn you toward your inner experience to find the truths that are most important for your growth.

I work virtually through the Healthy Male Institute, but can work with those across the gender spectrum. I look forward to connecting with you to see if you might benefit from working together!

Many of the individuals and couples I work with are used to carrying pressure—high responsibility, stress, and relationships strained by anxiety, trauma, or communication breakdowns. First responders, veterans, and adults in demanding roles often seek therapy to feel steadier, think more clearly, and reconnect in their relationships. Our work focuses on understanding patterns, improving communication, and building emotional regulation that holds up outside the therapy room. Couples learn to break conflict cycles, rebuild trust, and stay connected even during stress.

My approach is trauma-informed and attachment-focused, but above all practical. Sessions balance insight with tools you can actually use, helping you feel more grounded in yourself and more secure in your relationships.

If you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or tired of carrying everything alone, therapy can be a place to reset and move forward with greater clarity and stability. If this sounds like what you’re looking for, I welcome you to reach out for a consultation.
