Jungian Therapists in Austin, TX

I am experienced at helping to transform depression, anxiety, relationship problems, addictions, and other struggles through a variety of active techniques: Psychodynamic therapy with a Jungian orientation, expressive arts therapy, imago therapy for couples, action methods for groups, and mindfulness processes. With leaders and organizations, I use a dynamic set of processes that help to transform conflict and develop emotional intelligence and authenticity. I also am a licensed LPC supervisor and train facilitators to use these techniques with their clients.

My goal is to create a safe and comfortable space where clients can articulate their inner experience through both words and symbols. Deeper and clearer understanding unfolds as we engage in the therapeutic process with both a playful curiosity and a nonjudgmental attitude. I listen deeply and empathize with clients, while simultaneously encouraging them to confront the unhealthy roles, ineffective patterns and behaviors, and difficult emotions that are keeping them stuck in their lives. I believe that psychotherapeutic work profoundly transforms our inner worlds. It is truly a gift to be witness, partner, and guide on this journey.

I am a professional creativity, leadership, and career coach, consultant, educator, and facilitator based in Austin, Texas. My areas of focus in coaching include mindfulness, creativity, organizational psychology, existential issues, spirituality, and life transitions, drawing inspiration from humanistic, existential, positive, transpersonal, and Jungian depth psychology. I help individuals and organizations tap into their innate creativity for greater insight, innovation, collaboration, and resilience. While my Ph.D. is in psychology / creativity studies, I am not a therapist or clinical psychologist, so I cannot accept insurance.

Hi. I'm Andy. Welcome to a transformative journey of self-discovery and personal evolution. In other words, welcome to truly knowing yourself. Together, we'll begin a quest to confront the complexities of the human psyche and the challenges of our modern world. Drawing on the profound insights of Jungian psychology and the pragmatic wisdom of existential philosophy, our sessions are an exploration of meaning. With over 8 years of experience as a therapist and 20 years as an Austinite, I specialize in guiding individuals through the complexities of creativity, relationship dynamics, spiritual trauma, and existential questioning.

As a psychotherapist in the South Austin area, I counsel adults, with a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, trauma, and grief and loss. It is my desire to facilitate your transformation, healing, and growth toward wholeness. I will encourage, and often challenge, you to discover and listen to all aspects of yourself, enabling more authentic expression, expanded creativity and intuition, and connection to your life passion. I desire to create a physical and emotional space for you that is warm, accepting, and non-judgmental. I also work with clients as an InterSpiritual Guidess.

Men's lives are complex today. The identities we grew up with seem out of date and unaccepted. Are you cut off from your feelings and estranged from the fullness of life? Are you anxious or depressed? Do you only feel comfortable in your world of work? Is the external thing or accomplishment you’re chasing no longer giving you meaning or purpose? Are you having problems in relationships with those you care about? Perhaps you find life dry and difficult but cannot put your finger on why. I understand these harsh realizations and can help you overcome them. Helping men make positive change is the collaborative goal of my practice.

It takes courage to reach out and make the call to get help.I know this is often a critical time in a person's life, a time of crisis and/or confusion.It is also a time for growth. I provide a safe, accepting, and supportive setting in which to explore your experiences and emotions both in the past and present. I work with individuals, couples, and families, on issues such as grief, depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, trauma, life transitions, careers and creative blocks. I have experience with, and enjoy working with, people of all cultures, ethnicities and sexual orientations.

The source of everything we’re seeking, is in ourselves. Are you ready to create a sacred space in your life that involves integrating mindfulness of body intelligence as a primary tool for unconscious material to show up and possibly be healed and integrated by using breath, spatial awareness, consented therapeutic touch, movement, sensation, and imagery? By tapping into the innate intelligence of your gut, heart, and mind centers, YOU CAN absolutely reconnect with your inner guidance system which already contains everything you need to thrive. Let's collaborate to unleash your potential for conscious personal development!

Sometimes life robs us of our light. It can happen gradually or suddenly. We might not even know why the light is gone, only that it’s not there anymore. My goal is to enable you to search for and take hold of that light. I work primarily with depression and anxiety as well as spirituality, processing trauma, and family dynamics. I specialize in adolescents and young adults transitioning into new life stages, and adults of all ages who feel stuck in life.

Feeling stuck, angry, depressed, or confused? Are you fed up, with yourself, your partner, or family members? Are you struggling financially? Are looking for a different career or starting one? Are your struggling with school or college? Do you have feelings and thoughts that you do not understand, and don't feel comfortable talking to friends or family about them? These are common experiences for many people in our complicated society. Sometimes people "act out", fall into addictions, just shut down, or make bad decisions. They want change, but are not sure how. That's when counseling and analysis can really help.

Life is everchanging. My clients are experiencing challenges that require them to change in order to go forward. Some clients are interested in dreams and personal growth over time. Others want some immediate support to help them sort out the difficulties they currently face: whether it be the loss of a relationship, a career, a difficult illness, or some other major change in one's orientation to life. I have a depth and breadth of experience working with people of all stripes and in both law and social work: that is, people who have been stuck in some very difficult places. I value individuality and wholeness--not perfection.

My approach is rooted in the belief that no matter what a person has going on, there is always an internal compass guiding them towards integration. In our sessions, we will incorporate Jungian/depth psychology, IFS/parts work, relational psychoanalytic theory, attachment, polyvagal, & mindfulness (MBCT). We can also incorporate creativity therapy and embodied dreamwork.

Depression, anxiety, relationship issues, loss and grief, mid-life crisis, disappointment and stagnation are only a few of the reasons an individual seeks counseling. My therapeutic approach in working with an individual is to explore the meaning of life-altering events and to bring understanding and enduring ways to cope. I focus on strengths in the individual and work in a warm, non-judgmental way that feels safe. My role is to provide empathic listening and support while acting as a guide in removing the barriers and patterns that have developed over a lifetime.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor with special training and interest in areas of marriage and relationships, postpartum depression, separation and divorce, parent-child relations and women's issues. In my practice I strive to create a compassionate, respectful and trusting environment in which clients feel comfortable to explore their individual experiences. I conduct individual, couples, and family therapy, which includes practice with adults, adolescents, and children.

What is your life trying to tell you? Whether you're struggling with a life transition, failed relationship, grief and loss, anxiety or depression, it's an opportunity for growth. Although growth can be difficult, it can also be extremely rewarding. I primarily work with individual adults dealing with relationship issues, life transitions, grief & loss, aging parents, personal & professional development, anxiety and depression. Working collaboratively with clients is important to me and for those looking to go deeper outside of session, I provide homework and reading resources.

I look for clients that are serious about change, tired of the dead ends and ready to step into a new life path as their best selves. My practice offers tools for trauma, depression, anxiety, and also works to progress life's bigger picture, and aid the search for direction and purpose that we often feel is missing. This toolset includes EMDR and Internal Family Systems, as well the creation of a healing space to reflect. We can bring about hope to the stuck parts of our worlds, and gain an edge to finally be fully present in our own lives and relationships again. Email is preferred to take the next step and see if we fit!
