Is stress, anxiety and depression plaguing you? Do you feel more disconnected than ever in this post-pandemic world? Have you ever been curious about what therapy with horses might be like? I'd love to offer you the experience of something different, through a felt experience of change either through in-person talk therapy or equine assisted psychotherapy (I also offer Telehealth!). Therapy can be a place to feel safe, seen and find pathways to new ways of being in the world. I hope to meet you soon!

My goal is to work with you in a partnership to create solutions that are specific to your unique needs. I'm a believer that the opposite of depression is not happiness, but resiliency. We can work together to explore your depression, anxiety, or shame which are often the result from a trauma, or series of traumas. I have found that the most effective therapy has an individualized focus and is a collaboration between you and me. The focus will be to help you explore possible alternative ways of thinking and behaving - the building blocks of change.

In my two decades as therapist, I have been honored to witness people move through incredible challenges and sometimes transform the trajectory of their lives, Just as our bodies send healing to our physical wounds, we hold inside us all we need to be move through tremendous struggles to emerge whole. Our innate capacity to heal is in all of us. It is outside of our awareness because our minds are full of noise. I help my clients become inner explorers. I help them develop a lens of self-compassion, freedom from judgment and gentle curiosity about themselves. When we are at peace within ourselves, everything is possible.

My practice centers around teaching people principles on how to access their own innate psychological health, and how to utilize this understanding for their own well-being. This can include a healthier concept of self, a more productive way of viewing difficulties and overcoming challenges in life, and how to establish more meaningful relationships. I help client's suffering from depression, anxiety, attention issues, addictions, emotional regulatory disorders and relational conflict learn skills such as CBT, DBT, 3 principles training, and mindfulness to help better their lives. Teaching new skills is an integral part of my practice.

I love what I do! I connect well with my clients, and I particularly enjoy working with individuals struggling to make the transition from adolescence to adulthood - no matter the age. This is often a challenging time during which counseling can help assess expectations and establish boundaries for yourself and with others. I also connect well with individuals working in high tech that are transitioning in various areas of their lives. I am happy to consult with you and answer any questions you may have about the counseling process.

Are you looking to make big changes in your life or maybe you are just wanting to feel better on a daily basis? I offer evidence based therapy for those who are busy professionals or lead lives with demanding schedules that don't permit for the traditional model of months or even years of ongoing weekly therapy. Whether you seek this help for Trauma, interpersonal relationships, depression, or other difficult life situations, I am here to partner with you on the journey of healing. My passion is using the powerful techniques of EMDR Intensives with clients who are ready to live without their distressing clinical symptoms.

Does it feel like you are stuck? Are you sick and tired of feeling confused, lonely, worthless, lost, broken? Is it hard to even get out of bed since your loss? Does transitioning to the next phase in life seem out of reach? How determined are you to find love again? How desperate are you for a solution to feel the same way you once did? If you are reading this, then now is the time to take a new journey for yourself. You are ready to dive deep within to determine your self-worth. You can heal from your grief/loss/divorce/breakup!

I believe that it takes tremendous courage for an individual to reach out for counseling. People often take this step when they are feeling stuck or stagnant, unable to find relief and solutions on their own. I view my work with my clients as a partnership: I bring clinical knowledge and experience to the alliance and my clients bring their strengths, their inner wisdom, and their readiness to explore. While working together I provide a safe, comfortable and informative environment in which the client can find healing, seek solutions and create strategies that will bring about lasting change.

Hi - thank you for taking time to read my profile. If you choose to work with me, I will make every effort to help you feel comfortable and safe, yet challenged to make positive changes in your life. Sometimes trying to handle life on your own can be difficult - especially when you are emotionally close to your situation. With what we're collectively going through, things you were dealing with prior can feel even more intense. In exchange for your willingness to reach out, I will work to offer you support, guidance and a new perspective.

Thank you for stopping by. For more info about my services, please visit www.MyAustinTherapist.com. A psychologist for 20 years, my goal is to help bring positive change to all aspects of your life and your future. It may be through helping you feel good again, improving your self-esteem, developing better relationships, leading a more rewarding life, or achieving your goals; to be empowered, cope with stress or help with identity development.

Have you found yourself in a difficult situation, relationship, or divorce with a narcissist? Are you have difficulties with moving forward in your life or feel depressed or anxious? Have you experienced loss or an event that you cannot seem to move past? Do you need someone who will listen to you and understand your emotions?

I firmly believe we are created to live life in the present with joy, peace and love. However, we are inundated with media, messages and influences that leave us stressed, anxious and overwhelmed. We strive, push, and repeat unhealthy coping patterns. It is exhausting! Eventually, you find yourself lashing out at your loved ones, becoming judgmental, staying busy and disconnected, blaming others or being mad for reasons you can't remember. The patterns and ways of being can change, but it takes more than talk therapy.

You care so much about your child. They are your top priority. You may be at your wits end or nervous about what is going on with your child. You would do anything to see them happier and thriving in all areas of life. I've helped many families with behavioral, social, and emotional concerns. I help build coping, self esteem, and resilience skills. I believe in involving the parents and helping them learn new strategies because this will bring more lasting results for the child/teen. I finished my Bachelors in Counseling in 2000 and Graduate degree in Counseling in 2013. I have worked helping children for 19 years.

I enjoy assisting with goal clarity and quickly identifying the necessary action steps to achieving client goals. By focusing in on the crucial specifics of the goal, success and emotional relief are easier to achieve. With honest self-reflection and a desire to make behavioral and/or cognitive changes, my clients are able to reach new levels of satisfaction. I believe that by utilizing one's own strengths and preferences, with a dose of humor tossed in, most clients will be able to feel empowered to manage and solve most of life's problems with a hopeful attitude right away.

Seeking help is a huge step & I'm so glad you're here! Is anxiety, depression, or stress weighing you down? Are problems with your partner, children (young or adult), or others causing you grief? Do you work so hard but still seem to get triggered and wounded? If you seek to break unhealthy patterns and beliefs from the past, want to move into the life you desire, get in touch with or expand lost parts of yourself; there is a way, and you do not have to do it alone! Whether you're healing journey is underway or you're just getting started, I would love to support you in walking your path and create the space you need for healing.
