Therapists in Austin, TX

Are you ready to take charge of your life and embark on a journey of self-improvement? If so, you've come to the right place. My passion is guiding individuals who are determined to make positive changes and overcome challenges including anxiety, depression, and the lingering effects of substance use or addiction. If you've tried counseling before but didn't feel understood or supported, I'm here to provide the compassionate and non-judgmental environment you deserve.

Congratulations to you! You are already doing the work that can lead to YOU being a Better YOU! You’ve taken the most difficult step and that’s the decision to seek therapy. If you are feeling unmotivated, depressed, or anxious and having problems in your personal or work life, I would like to assist you in acquiring the tools to help you better manage these issues. Even if it’s a behavior you’d like to change, anger you’d like to control, or trauma you’d like to sort through, my passion is to help individuals overcome debilitating issues and begin living the life they deserve.

As a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I am committed to supporting individuals on their journey toward mental and emotional well-being. I have significant expertise in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, spirituality, self-esteem, anger management, LGBTQ+, family conflict, grief, and life transitions. I offer a warm and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and challenges.

It has been a privilege to have shared in the lives and the struggles of thousands of people during the last 30 years. All appointments are online telehealth using Zoom, Facetime or Google Meet. Please visit my websites at www.OnlineChristianCounseling.info or www.ChristianMarriageCounseling.info I work with individual adults and couples. Counseling involves listening, reflecting, analyzing, reframing and desensitizing. Role playing, rehearsal and relaxation training are often used. Healing emotional wounds and restoring damaged relationships are often the goals of psychotherapy.

Is the noise in your head overwheming? Feeling angry, hopeless, or wanting to feel alive; to stop the constant "shit show" you've been living? Maybe you're tired of waking up every single day wanting to stay in bed. I get it; you're frustrated & overwhelmed; feel like you have no control & it's hard to trust or get close to anyone. And your self-esteem, boundaries, & relationships probably suck & that pisses you off even more. The lifetime of hits just won't stop coming. I get it & I can help - w/ the thoughts, images, shame, & demons yelling in your head. I can help you turn that shit off & help make life livable again.

The world we live in is filled with an array of challenges. We wake up everyday and ask ourselves "How do I get through today and make it to tomorrow?". We search for answers that we don't have and use resources to fill the gaps we can't fill alone. People want to be happy and feel a sense of belonging. Apathy, judgement, timidity and reluctance can keep us from reaching these goals and and can keep us from becoming the people we desire and hope to be.

Life is unpredictable, and traumatic events and life changes can cause individuals to feel lost, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. My primary focus is to help individuals identify any areas in their lives that may be causing hindrances to their happiness, personal growth, and overall well-being. I believe that in order to heal, it's important for individuals to gain a better understanding of themselves, their relationships, and how life experiences have impacted them.

If you are looking for a therapist chances are that you are in the midst of a significant loss, personal failure or the painful realization that your life is not what you hoped it would be-- aka the dark night of the soul. It is often these painful circumstances and events that propel us on a journey of self-discovery where we begin to live a more wholehearted and purposeful life. As your counselor, my job is provide you with support and guidance as you move beyond the pain and into your purpose.

Change is inevitable. Pain is probable. Suffering is optional. Many of us already have the strength to manage change but need a little help finding the courage and confidence. That is why I take a collaborative, flexible, transformational, dynamic, and strength-based approach to empower clients to face life’s circumstances. I could help equip you with just tools to tackle your personal and professional obstacles or I can work alongside you and through dialogue help you to develop your own tools for long term sustainable strategies and an independent and purposeful life.

I am currently accepting new clients - Perhaps you're reaching out because life's stressors have become overwhelming, relationships are challenging, or symptoms are too intense to handle alone. I specialize in depth-oriented therapy for adults facing personal, professional, or family challenges. I also work with people who feel generally resilient and successful but are navigating significant or acute levels of stress.

Do you find yourself feeling sad, empty, or unmotivated? Do you struggle with anxiety, anger, or behavior you just can't stop? Do you have a child who is struggling or a marriage that could be better? Life can present many challenges and sometimes we or the ones we love could use some extra help getting through these challenges successfully. With all the therapists and counselors available, it's helpful to have one who has had experience working with your concerns and is available at a time that works for you. As a Christian psychologist, it is my aspiration to help others live the abundant life that is found in Jesus.

Alleviating symptoms while providing an increase in positive thoughts and feelings is a holistic focus towards wellbeing. We may feel stress, frustration, anger, or fear that can cause our lives to become unbalanced. Guiding clients to explore and identify problems while searching for solutions will empower individuals to take control of their lives. Additionally, practicing techniques in finding meaning, gratitude, and hope can influence a person’s sense of confidence in things that are difficult to manage or control. Understanding ourselves may be the hardest thing to do, yet alone, communicate what is really going on.

My goal is to establish quality relationships with my clients in order to resolve issues such as destructive anger, depression, trauma, anxiety, PTSD, and C-PTSD. I can help resolve relational issues between spouses, parents and children or extended family members. EMDR is a powerful tool to help breakthrough negative cognitions due to trauma.

So you're doing the best you can & feeling it's just not good enough. Let's face it, you have limited resources & it's easy to feel overwhelmed by work, family, & society. If your life is out of balance & you can't remember how happiness felt; your procrastination or self medication is catching up with you; or you cannot communicate effectively with your family & the situation is spiraling out of control? It doesn't have to be this way. If you are finally sick and tired of feeling sick and tired...Let me help.

I assist clients dealing with addiction and the related co-occurring issues (anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD/ADD, stress, bipolar, schizo-affective, schizophrenic, etc.). All of my clients have experienced some type of trauma, PTSD, childhood emotional neglect, intergenerational family issues, spiritual emergency / psychosis, etc., and addiction has been the result. Clients who have been impacted are in my estimation actually highly sensitive people and highly spiritual people. I now offer an 11-Session Emotional Integration Training program that teaches you to manage your emotions in a skillful way putting the tools in your hands.

I have to admit...I’m a robber. I rob people of the excuse of why they can’t have something, do something, or be something. Hey! My name is Dr. Antonio D. Specht, Sr. and I’m a Licensed Professional Christian Therapist. I strive to be an example of a mentally and spiritually healthy life and I want you to achieve the same success. I see our daily issues and see the needs for our teens as well as our men to have a safe, fun, and honest place to come where I provide real solutions to your issues.
