Therapists in Texas

Being human isn't always easy, and when life gets complicated and becomes challenging, therapy can help offer tools to navigate through a crisis while providing you a deeper exploration of yourself. Problems in relationships often come from old ways of coping that served you in the past, but now may be keeping you from feeling fulfilled and satisfied with your life. I believe our most challenging times can also be our greatest opportunity for change. Healing is possible, and therapy is a journey towards self-discovery where you get to explore the landscape of your own mind.

Do you wish you and your partner could communicate better? Are you tired of feeling misunderstood in everything you do? Maybe it's time to let someone help. My passion is helping couples build a strong and lasting relationship with each other based on communication, transparency, and respect. I have experience providing therapy services to individuals, couples, children, and families experiencing mental health and relational concerns such as depression, anxiety, premarital counseling, relational conflict, and communication problems. I am a compassionate therapist who works collaboratively with my clients. I strive to help others tackle whatever life throws their way.

Working closely with couples, adults, and college students is my passion and it is ultimately what led me to pursue clinical practice. I see clients with a wide variety of experiences, but specialize in: stress and depression, couples seeking to improve their communication/intimacy/relationship, dating and long-term couples needing support during times of change, individuals with high stress careers, LGBTQ+ issues, mindfulness and self-compassion, and goal setting/achievement. I believe in the importance of integrative health, and offer therapy online, in person in Northwest Hills (Austin), and outdoors.

Hello! I’m Caitlin and I am so glad you are here. I absolutely love the mind-body connection and believe that you cannot treat the mind apart from the body and spirit. I believe we often focus on healing physical symptoms without diving into root causes and what is going on inside of us. I am passionate about understanding ourselves as holistic beings made in the image of God, with the belief that our unique life experiences can have a significant impact on us in the here and now, but that Jesus gets the final word and real healing happens through Him.

Life can be difficult—full of struggles, challenges, changes, and the unexpected. We keep these events in our minds, whether at the front to consciously influence all of our decisions, or packed away in a box in a corner, to be dealt with ‘in the future’. When your box begins to overflow or you realize that it is time to open it, I’m here to help you unpack, sort, and re-pack the box. My goal is to help you regain control of the box, so that the box no longer controls you.

My passion is working with people struggling with some of the many challenges that life brings. Whether struggling with adjusting to new life changes, dealing with chronic anxiety and depression or other psychiatric issues, I would like to help clients to be able to gain the tools to be able to manage their situations and be able to live a more fulfilled life.

Currently accepting new clients. Feel free to contact me by phone or email. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I recognize that everyone goes through times in their life when they need to reach out for help. My goal as a counselor is to cultivate a warm and safe environment that offers a space for growth and positive change without judgement. I utilize an integrative approach, incorporating elements of multiple theoretical approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Existential Therapy. I believe in meeting the client where they're at in life, and showing respect for the hard work that they put into their recovery.

We as individuals have busy lives and sometimes our mental health gets forgotten or pushed to the back of the priority list. My approach and experience is to help clients feel empowered and become aware of the areas they have control in and choice in their lives. I am accepting clients of all ages, sexual orientation, identity, religion, etc. I provide individual therapy, group therapy, family and couples counseling.

Anxiety, depression, grief, & chronic pain are experienced by many people. We know that continual stress negatively impacts our health, families, relationships, & jobs. Counseling can help you release the hurt, anger, pain, & sorrow to reveal the amazing you that has been hidden beneath the emotional turmoil. Integrative & non-pharmaceutical interventions, including learning new coping skills, support you in finding the path to the person you want to be. Counseling is a journey well worth taking, offering gifts in the process, often including revitalizing new meaning & purpose in your life.

Like an oasis in a desert, our private practice exists to support your meaning-making process so that you can experience the healing transformation from merely surviving to purposeful thriving.

The first step to getting healthier is often asking for help. When looking at mental health, however, that can be scary and overwhelming. Many people have tried to express their struggles, only to be met with shame. We get stressed, we lash out at ourselves or others, then sit in the shame and guilt that follows. Maybe you struggle in relationships, regulating your thoughts and emotions, or experience self-defeating behaviors. To move towards growth and progress in any area of life, you must feel accepted, cared for, and supported.

I look at mental health from an integrative perspective. People are best understood and change is best maintained by taking into account all aspects of a person including physical health, genetic influences, cultural identities, behavioral patterns and past experiences. My therapeutic approach emphasizes an appreciation for the complexity and uniqueness of all of my clients. I provide a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and actions, so that you can better understand yourself and obtain direction on how to grow. I will collaborate with you to create an individualized treatment plan based on your specific needs.

What if I told you that you can have the life you desire; deep, meaningful, and authentic? I can help you bridge the gap between where you are and where you wish to be so that you can not just survive, but rather thrive in your life. You can change your life, have healthy relationships, and live the life you imagine if you are willing to do the deep inner work. I acknowledge you for being here and taking this first step towards your preferred future. I believe in your capacity for growth and change, and in your ability and capability to create the life of your dreams. It is my pleasure to help you get there.

If you would like to feel more at home within yourself, more connected in your relationships, and more in touch with life’s little moments, join me to see if we can collaborate toward crafting a more enriched life for you. I provide an open, warm, and safe place for you to gently and compassionately unfold the layers of self-limiting habits, beliefs and behaviors so you can enjoy life more fully.

Hi! My name is Maria Quadri. I have a Master's Degree in Counseling from University of Houston Clear Lake. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (License # 79415) and a National Certified Counselor. I am very understanding and open about cultural identity and finding your own purpose in life. I value cultural differences and that is what has molded me into the person that I have become today. My goal is to provide therapy in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. I am a firm believer that we pave our life's path and I am honored to be part of your journey.

Hi ya'll :) I provide services to people who seek my help. Even if it's to get you to another provider who fits you! I want to work with folks who are open to doing the work - which is a hard thing to do. I validate that. But let's do this if you have the space. I provide including both psychotherapy, as well as brief assessments for WPATH letters for life saving, gender affirmative health care + GHAC letters to appeal insurance denials of coverage for GAHC (don't back down!). You don't have to be LBTQISP+ for me to care about your well-being. If you imagine a fit, please reach out and we can figure it out together.

I believe in mutuality. I believe that all persons deserve it in relationships, even when things feel too complicated. So I naturally prioritize a collaborative, exploratory, and enlightening relationship for healing - both in psychotherapy and in evaluation. When I work with any age or circumstance, I try to understand words, thoughts, behaviors, and meanings. These all can lend themselves to strengths or difficulties, so we work with these to bring about desired change.

Are you struggling with recent personal or societal events, past or present traumas or losses, life transitions, or general life stressors? Do you need help navigating how to deal with these things in a productive, meaningful, or healthy way? Then you have come to the right place and I am happy you are here. We can expect to experience at least one or all of the above issues at some point in our lives, but we are not expected to endure them alone. I enjoy helping people who are struggling with grief, anxiety, boundaries, life transitions, & illness to name a few; while providing a warm, safe space for you to be authentic and heard.
