Journey Of My Life
Hello! I'm Dr. Tamara Hinojosa
Embracing Community
As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas (LPC, # 74531), I have clinical experience in women’s centers, career counseling centers, and higher education settings. My private practice is based in San Antonio, Texas because, as a native of San Antonio, I aim to support mental health and wellness in my hometown community. Additionally, I am a university professor and enjoy training future counselors.
Academic Journey
I earned my B.S. in Applied Learning & Development at the University of Texas in Austin and I earned both my M.Ed. in College Student Affairs and a Ph.D. in Counselor Education & Supervision from Penn State University in State College, Pennsylvania. Pursuing higher education created new career opportunities and financial stability that I had previously viewed as unattainable. While I am grateful that I persisted, I endured numerous challenges and turning points along the way.
Unlocking New Horizons
Turning points can feel scary and overwhelming, even when they are in pursuit of something meaningful or during exciting times, like the birth of a new baby or a long awaited retirement. Turning points can also arise unexpectedly, prompted by significant losses, such as career changes, death of a loved one, or facing end-of-life. If you are experiencing challenges or intuitively sense that an important life transition is emerging, I hope that you will reach out to see if working with me would be a good fit.
