Psychoanalytic Therapists in Spicewood, TX

If you have a feeling that you may be holding yourself back from experiencing your full potential because of trauma, difficult to manage emotions, addiction or depression, psychoanalytic psychotherapy may be a beneficial path for you. This type of therapy helps you explore how things outside of your awareness affect your life and is focused on helping you unravel patterns that may be making you feel stuck or alone.

Austin Psychologist provides psychotherapy and testing to help you with many different issues: Are you very successful in school or work, maybe at the top, but something is missing, something is really frustrating, and you’re not as excited in the morning anymore? You want your mojo back! Or, are you stressed about some big obstacle - related to your health or a family conflict - but you don’t know how to solve it? Maybe you’re not getting along with friends, family, or your partner like you used to. There’s some problem that you just can’t solve even though you’ve tried. You ask “What do I do now?”

A few openings available for new clients - Are you someone who has accomplished much, but finds certain parts of your life or yourself increasingly difficult or stuck? Whether you're navigating complex relationships, managing stress and anxiety, or interested in making changes, I work with individuals who are invested in understanding themselves and progressing through the challenges they encounter, both internal and external.

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.

I believe relationships define each of us and form the foundation for our life. I work from a systemic perspective with couples, individuals, and families to create relationships that define not only who we are, but also who we desire to become. I help clients with their relationships, intimacy, connection, communication, and sexual compatibility. I work with a lot of women who have suffered from Narcissistic abuse in relationships and family of origin. I also help those who are confused in their current relationships. I enjoy helping those who have autoimmune disease and cancer redefine their sexuality, relationships and desire.

Congratulations on your journey towards healing and a full life. I invite you to learn a bit more about my practice and the path I have taken to join you. I strive to provide a safe environment for clients to become in touch with their agency, while experiencing difficult life situations. Most of my work is done in the context of the parent/child relationship, when working with young children and families. With individuals and couples, I allow clients to identify their inner strength and insight to foster personal growth, or develop deep meaningful relationships.

I believe in therapy. It helps us become unstuck, freeing us to move closer towards our goals and who we want to be. It allows us to begin healing from our past and transforms how we feel and act in our current relationships. It gives us support in times of crisis and stress, allowing us to become even more resilient in the future. And it frees us from habitual patterns that cause suffering in our lives.

A client once said that on the day of everyone's birth, they should be assigned a therapist for life. At some time in your life wouldn't it be nice to have someone validate you, completely accept you without judgment and be there when you feel you can't go on? Perhaps you'd begin to see your strengths, learn how to think positively and understand that you can move forward no matter your situation.

Relationships are inherently complex, and even our most intimate ones can be confusing and painful. It's my job to help you make sense of the complexity. Rather than focusing on fixing something, I put greater emphasis on understanding and processing your conflicting feelings and desires. When we are able to identify and explore conflicting states of mind, we feel less stuck and more free to make choices that reflect what is most authentic to who we are.

Psychotherapy is the practice of talking things through with a skilled and trusted professional. Conversation lays out a frame of reference for solving problems in one's personal life and eases emotional pain. For anyone who seeks therapy, there is a desire to improve communication, to be better understood and connect with others. Finding the courage to change the way to communicate more effectively can be difficult. Unavoidably, there are times when we lose our way, have misunderstandings, or struggle with doubts about our own capabilities. An experienced therapist can help us find solutions to problems and relief from pain in a nonjudgmental atmosphere.
