Men's Issues Therapists in Westlake Hills, Austin, TX

Do you need help to build confidence, pursue your passions, or create meaning in your life? Do you want to look at ways you can move past the stuck places and repetitive patterns that prevent you from experiencing more intimate and fulfilling relationships with yourself and others? Does anxiety/depression prevent you from trying? I specialize in helping people move through the parts of their lives that are not working and build new ways of thinking. I am rooted in mindfulness that helps guide my clients to be more self empowered and self actualized.

I offer somatic psychotherapy (touch and tablework) for people who are working on trauma, relationship and attachment issues. This work may also bring up family of origin issues that may also be unresolved. I combine somatic, IFS, and attachment modalities. My somatic training also provides expertise in helping those with chronic illness or pain and how this is related to mental health. Somatic work also is for those with after-effects of surgeries or accidents.

You deserve a therapist who can not only make you feel safe and heard but who you get along with. I see clients for issues such as anxiety, family conflict, relationships, and trauma, and I specialize in working with religious trauma and cult recovery. Lets work together to help you get what you want out of this short life.

Are you tired, overwhelmed, or stressed? Let’s face it—life is stressful! Your kid is having a tantrum in the middle of the store, your boss is breathing down your neck, and you and your partner keep having the same arguments on repeat. Anxiety sucks up energy, makes us irritable, and weakens our immune systems. All of this leaves you feeling frustrated, hopeless, and exhausted. Therapy can help you gain practical tools for improving communication in your relationship, understanding your emotions, and coping with stress. Couples therapy. Family counseling. Parent coaching. Group therapy for men. Not sure where to turn? Call now.

Trouble turning your brain off? Does anxiety get in the way of truly connecting or being present with others? I get it. I can help. Together, we can find the agency you need to take control of whatever aspect of your life that isn’t working for you.

Therapy shouldn't have to be complicated - it's really about sitting down and talking with another person. What is most crucial - perhaps even more important than credentials and education - is that you feel comfortable with your therapist; otherwise, the therapy won't work. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (in Texas and California) as well as a certified alcohol and drug counselor. I have been in practice since 1994 and work with individuals, couples, families, and adolescents.

We have therapists (Licensed, Associates and Graduate Students Interns) who specialize in different age groups (teens, young adults, middle age, and elderly), constellations (individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy), and targets (pastors & missionaries, EMDR, affair recovery, blended families, veterans, grief & loss, etc.). If a client requests to incorporate Christian spirituality into counseling, our therapists are well trained to do so. However, we are incredibly respectful of our clients’ faith beliefs, including those who profess faith and those who do not.

Seeking support after the death of a loved one, or preparing for the death of a loved one, can be overwhelming. The focus of my work is to support individuals, families, couples, and children/teenagers when they are dealing with the challenges of loss due to an illness or other issues related to loss. I strive to help my clients cope with the difficult prospects of loss such as death, suicide, divorce, marital discord, terminal illness, chronic illness, job loss, and the challenges it brings to the client, and their family.

If you are here, you are likely experiencing relationship challenges or may be at a crossroads in an important relationship. You may have tried other forms of therapy but perhaps the changes didn't last or your life circumstances have changed. If this sounds like you, I would love to help you get back on track. I offer either 2 day long relationship interventions for couples or weekly/bi-weekly therapy for individuals, couples or families. My aim is to provide a respectful space in which to explore where things may be getting stuck and help you find a healthier and happier path forward.

She specializes in trauma, anxiety, ketamine assisted therapy, self-compassion/acceptance, and relationship issues. Taylor may be a good fit for you if anxiety or depression are causing daily distress, self-criticism and burnout are impacting work performance, or if relationships feel unmanageable and disconnected. She supports clients to overcome painful past experiences and unhelpful patterns, in order to reconnect with themselves, loved ones, and career in more meaningful and successful ways.

We each carry within us our unique wisdom, strength and resiliency that, with the right support, can become to the keys to our personal healing. Yet we all go through periods where life circumstances- traumas, life transitions, or relationship difficulties- overwhelm our ability to make sense of our experiences. Perhaps your reactions don't make rational sense to you or your loved ones. Maybe old coping strategies no longer cut it anymore. It can be confusing, terrifying and lonely to not be able to make sense of the storm happening inside of us. It can also be a turning point, a moment to expand into a deeper version of ourselves.

In my practice I see clients of all ages, for therapy and testing/evaluations. I specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse/dependence, behavior disorders and family systems issues. Most of my clients present with a combination of symptoms. I tailor treatment to the specific needs of the client and use research proven techniques to meet the needs of the individual, or family, in a collaborative setting. I teach healthy coping skills to address a wide range of symptoms.

HI! I'm Tommy Estes! I am a Combat Veteran and I personally know what it's like to struggle with PTSD and hopelessness. But, I have learned that there is hope and tools to help us process and heal from our struggles. By using the Bowen Family Systems Theory, I will join you in unraveling the roots of long lasting patterns that may be holding you back from living a fulfilling and meaningful life. Our process will begin gently and each new insight will help us move forward at a pace that feels right for you. My goal is to walk and lock arms with you in this journey towards healing.

I believe that the deepest healing happens when therapy is rooted in connection, empathy, and compassion, so my first goal is to create an environment in which you feel understood and supported. Likewise, I believe we are truly whole when our most important relationships are thriving – including our relationship with ourselves. Strengthening these relationships is a primary focus of my therapeutic approach, along with the attainment of embodiment, mindfulness, and freedom. I work from a psychodynamic and experiential perspective to guide you towards an experience of authenticity and alignment with yourself, others, and the world.

I spent a lot of time and energy in my early adult years struggling trying to figure out who I was and why certain things weren't working the way I had envisioned. There was a lot of trying and failing. I was lucky enough to find guides to help me find my voice. Now, I do my best to listen compassionately and deeply so I can ask thoughtful questions that may help you think differently about yourself, your relationships and how you may want to show up differently in your life. I believe you are the expert on yourself. Sometimes it just takes someone to listen and ask good questions to help you (re)discover what's already there.

As a relational therapist, my approach is based in the understanding that secure relationships with ourselves and others are essential to our emotional well-being. In my practice, I use the framework provided by the field of interpersonal neurobiology (IPNB) to explain how our brain, body and relationships work together to create our mind – or lived experience. Because these three systems are different for every one of us, they interact – or integrate – differently, providing us with our own unique take on the world – and on ourselves and our relationships with others.

I specialize in working with men and women in a variety of areas that include relationships, conflict management, infidelity, life transitions, executive coaching, depression and anxiety. My work focuses on identifying areas of conflict that allow you to gain insight and move to resolve challenges effectively and efficiently. You can strengthen your relationships with others by understanding ways to communicate and resolve conflict both personally and professionally. Please visit my website for details. I provide counseling that is authentic, conversational and compassionately direct as I truly care about your success.
