Therapists in Austin, TX

PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. Have you reached the point where that self-critical voice in your head seems to be doing more harm than good? Do you long to feel more connected to others, but find it difficult to sustain joyful, thriving, relationships? Are you tired of having anxious thoughts or low mood rob you of experiencing joy in the present moment? Are feelings of sadness over past or recent losses making it hard for you to function as you normally would? Do you sense that healing wounds from the past could liberate you to flourish more now?

Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are. So who do you ultimately want to be? What is going on in your life to cause stress or strife? What can we change or take out to improve things? Are you communicating effectively with your adolescent or loved ones? Life can throw many different obstacles that cause stress, anxiety, depression, and a breakdown of relationships. One of the hardest relationships for parents or caregivers can be the one with their teenager. As a marriage and family therapist I take a look at your entire life and not just the person itself to facilitate change.

My goal is to help you discover your true self and lead a life worth celebrating. While difficult situations or experiences are an inevitable part of life, you and I can work together to resolve and overcome your challenges. I am committed to creating a safe, welcoming, supportive place where you are treated with kindness, acceptance, and respect. You are given permission to be just as you are, while working toward the growth and happiness. I believe every human being is deserving and capable of self-confidence, inner peace, self-love, and healthy living.

We are a team of highly-specialized therapists who are committed to serving your individual and relationship needs. We have a combined 40+ years of experience and a wide array of specialties and certifications. We provide the most up to date and effective therapy because our clinicians are highly trained in relationship issues as well as sexuality issues. Most couples therapists do not receive any education in sexuality. We are a diverse team which only strengthens our ability to serve all communities. We continuously seek advanced, expert training opportunities in sexuality and relationship issues.

I believe the transforming power of psychotherapy begins with a connection between you and I. Our conversations create a safe space for you to explore your life and grow in the confidence of your worth, your aspirations, and your life circumstances. From this awareness comes a deeper knowing of yourself and a more effective "hands on" capacity for dealing thoughtfully and constructively with the challenges of life. Together, we define your goals for therapy, and together we create the path to make these goals your reality.

The foundation of my approach is curiosity. My individual therapy style is relational, nurturing, and insightful. Whether working with young people or adults, I strive to provide them with individual tools to transform into more openhearted and authentic versions of themselves. My maxim: You can heal so many parts of your life by approaching it with a curious heart and open mind.

Hello there! I'm so glad you found me. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, non-judgmental space for you to be curious, grow and to start the healing process.

My core values are centered on professional integrity, relational ethics, respect for diversity, equity, and inclusion, and a commitment to continuous self-development. I provide individual therapy, group therapy and even equine facilitated psychotherapy those who qualify.

It can be very frustrating to be misunderstood by your spouse or your partner. You probably have a hard time communicating with each other.

You may even feel defeated because of the frequent arguing and worried about the future of your relationship. You know its time to get some help.

I am an open-minded therapist accepting the diversity of client lifestyle and gender.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, a survivor of religious trauma, and someone who suffers from a chronic physical illness, I know that life is full of ups and downs. These ups and downs shape us into who we are, for better or worse, but that doesn't mean you can't make positive changes. In the past couple years I had the privilege to work with a therapist who helped me work through the best and worst parts of who I am and become proud of who I am. That is why I want to be your therapist. I want to be able to provide you with the opportunity that I had, the opportunity to become the best and most authentic person you can be.

Are you ready to let old patterns go and bring new energy into your life? Are you on a healing journey, but find yourself stuck in a particular area of your life? I believe that pleasure is a vital component of happiness, and that through therapy individuals and couples can learn the right tools to achieve mental, emotional, spiritual, and sexual health. I help folks explore who they are in a safe environment that is supportive of each person’s path to self-love and acceptance. I work with couples to address communication issues and help them to build stronger, more intimate connections.

We are passionate about helping people create and live their best life and we believe everyone can experience their dream life when they have support and a clear direction.
