👉 Walk away with answers that finally make sense—and a plan built for lasting change.

👉 No waiting. No stagnation. Just a team that moves with you, so you’re never left stuck.
Healing shouldn’t feel lonely. Our weekly live virtual group connects you with others who actually get it. Together, you’ll share, learn, and grow in real-time.
👉 Normally $35/session—yours FREE as part of your care.
This is the built-in support system that keeps you grounded, connected, and moving forward.
You don’t need more “tips” from the internet—you need guidance that actually works. Every month, you’ll get access to live workshops led by licensed professionals who cut through the noise and show you real strategies that create lasting change.

No more guessing, no more trial-and-error. Together, we’ll create a step-by-step plan that’s built for you—covering therapy, lifestyle shifts, and medication (if needed).
👉 You’ll know exactly what to expect over the next 30–90 days, so you can move forward with clarity instead of uncertainty.
Finding the right fit is part of the journey—and we’ve removed the risk. If therapy isn’t the right match, we will connect you with a different counselor on the team and cover the first two sessions until it's the right one.
👉 No wasted time, no wasted money. Just the right care—without the second-guessing.
This is possible. And it happens here.
For those without insurance, we’ve built a clear, no-risk path to get started:
And here’s the difference: If after your first session it doesn’t feel like the right fit, we’ll cover that session—because finding the right therapist should feel safe, not like a gamble.
From your first visit to long-term support, we make the process straightforward, transparent, and tailored to you.
We’ll take a deep look at your history, symptoms, and triggers.
👉 You’ll finally understand how trauma is showing up in your life and leave with an immediate grounding plan.
A personalized plan designed to reduce symptoms and restore safety:
• Therapy options: EMDR, CPT, Prolonged Exposure, plus DBT skills for regulation
• Medication support if helpful, coordinated with your therapist
• Somatic grounding, sleep support, and simple daily routines
👉 You’ll know exactly what the next 30–90 days will look like.
This is where change begins:
• Safely process traumatic memories at your pace (EMDR/CPT/PE)
• Step-by-step plans for triggers, nightmares, and flashbacks
• Build skills for calm, focus, and relationship safety
👉 You’ll notice fewer reactions, better sleep, and more control in daily life.
Once symptoms loosen their grip, we move toward long-term stability:
• Sessions shift to biweekly or monthly for accountability
• Relapse-prevention and crisis-calm plans you can rely on
• Strengthen boundaries, purpose, and trust in yourself
👉 The goal: steady peace, resilience under stress, and confidence in your future.

PTSD symptoms often include flashbacks, nightmares, avoiding reminders of trauma, hypervigilance, and intense guilt or shame. If these symptoms interfere with your daily life or relationships, it may be PTSD.
Many therapists use generic approaches that don’t target trauma directly. At Acceptance Path, Ricardo Alvarez is <i>EMDR-trained</i> and experienced in trauma-focused therapies proven to reduce PTSD symptoms safely and effectively.
Not right away — and never before you’re ready. Our first priority is building safety and stability. Therapies like EMDR allow you to process trauma at your own pace, without being re-traumatized.
Many clients start noticing improvements within weeks — fewer nightmares, reduced triggers, and better sleep. Long-term stability typically develops over 2–3 months as new patterns take hold.
