Anger Management Therapists in Austin, TX

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.

Hello, and welcome! I am delighted to share a glimpse into my work to support individuals and couples in their pursuit of healthy, fulfilling relationships. I am a dedicated therapist with a passion for utilizing evidence-based methods such as PACT, Collaborative Therapy, and Attachment Theory to promote lasting change and growth. Our work will address the unique challenges and dynamics that arise within your relationships. I also specialize in working with individuals and couples who are impacted by ADHD. As a therapist with ADHD, I understand the intricate ways in which it can impact relationships, communication, and daily life.

I was raised in a very dysfunctional family. While I will not go into details about this, that part of my life; the stress, anxiety, and depression led me to have a strong desire to not only understand the principles behind mental health but help others in dealing with their issues thus allowing them a bit of solace, easing that burden. Counselors, social workers, and psychologists are all people too, we usually are not perfect people trying to lead you down the perfect path. We just want to help ease your mental burden and improve its health. If you’re having problems with mental health, I would like to assist you.

My ideal client is someone who has self-esteem issues. As a therapist I enjoy imparting positive feedback to my clients to help them see the value of themselves as an individual and to boost their perception of self. I treat the following issues: abandonment, abortion, adoption, aging/geriatric conditions, anger, blended family issues, bullying, caregiver issues/stress, co-dependency, commitment issues, communication problems, compulsive spending/shopping, control issues, divorce adjustment, emotional abuse, grief, LGBTQ issues, military/veterans issues, PTSD, women's issues, and workplace issues.

I am a trauma and attachment therapist. I am currently utilizing telehealth and in-office visits. I specialize in trauma and post-adopt family work, but also enjoy working with individual children, teens, adults and therapists. I have 26 years of experience in community mental health and with a Foster Care Agency .I believe that all family members deserve to feel safe, trusted, loved and understood. My passion is helping traumatized, abused and neglected ones heal and thrive.

Let's face it: We have ALL experienced some type of negative situation in our lives. Whether it is divorce, death, or other traumatic experiences, you do not have to deal with these challenges alone. Maybe you are having issues in your job or relationships? Perhaps you are having a hard time functioning from day to day or experiencing behavioral issues in school? Regardless of the circumstances, my goal is to walk with you through these difficult times and assist you with discovering healthy coping skills and maintaining a positive lifestyle.

Whether one seeks relief from anxiety, trauma, relational impasses, or life disillusionment, therapy can help. It is unfortunate that insufficiently engaged approaches to therapy, prohibitive rates, and the unconscionable reluctance of most clinicians to accept insurance fail so many clients, who in good faith seek to discover a healing of heart and mind. As a psychodynamic therapist, I view my role as an empathic change agent employed to help bring about a fuller knowledge of self and a more liberated experience of life and relationship. I also supervise highly promising interns from NWU available for as low as $15-30 per session.

Aberrations in the human condition can be very complex with roots that extend throughout the bio-psycho-social context. It often takes more than one treatment modality. I approach each client with an open mind to discover what will work in each client as I see them. Each client is given resources for self-discovery, self-healing, and self-empowerment.

I believe it is a privilege to partner with clients and help them navigate their lives. Whether they are struggling or are just ready to do things differently, they don’t have to do it alone. I enjoy meeting people where they are and providing a safe space for them to explore their thoughts and feelings in order to understand their situation better. Using my expertise gained over 17 years of counseling, I am honest and compassionate which allows others to be truthful with themselves as they work toward greater self-awareness, growth, and self-acceptance.

I am a therapist trained to listen, nurture and work with you. This might be repairing relationships, healing from trauma, recovering from addiction, managing anxiety or depression.  I see clients both face to face in my office as well as online within the state of Texas through HIPAA-compliant confidential video. Clients come to therapy when life is not working. Joining with a therapist allows patterns to be investigated and altered, insight to be gained and distress to be tolerated. With guidance, clients set goals for therapy and I work to meet those goals. They are a benchmark for progress.

Do you struggle with substance use affecting every aspect of your day-to-day life? Maybe there's damage to your relationships, ability to function, job, or career. Do you feel trapped by the inability to freely choose your thoughts, emotions, or actions? Is getting through the day without self-medicating difficult or impossible? Do you wonder if it’s even possible that your experience of life could be better? Now more than ever, so many people feel anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about retaking control of their lives because they don't know how; or fear keeps blocking their best intentions. No wonder you’re so stressed.

Sometimes we all need extra support or a safe place to turn when life seems overwhelming or confusing. Therapy can offer that support and provide a place to talk about things that may be difficult to share with anyone else. Whether you are struggling with life changes, feelings of sadness and anxiety, a sense of "stuckness", or ready to heal past traumas, therapy can and does provide relief and a new way of living.

Hello! I received my Masters Degree in Counseling at the University of North Texas in Denton Texas. I come from a cognitive behavioral orientation although I also use gestalt therapy. I have treated mental health and addiction issues for 29 years. I have worked with a variety of populations including people with grief issues, HIV and AIDS, dual diagnosis (addiction with a mental health disorder), couples, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression and PTSD. I have experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I currently have a private practice in Meridian Texas. I practice exclusively online.

Finding answers, resolutions, and ultimately healing in the middle of some of life's most difficult times can be challenging. Help is about being guided to internal solutions that may be hidden by the intensity of the pain or the complexity of the challenge. Austin Counseling Associates can help. As practitioners of counseling arts, we are deeply committed to being present, connected, creative, and caring. Through the use of these attributes, we seek to guide clients down a path of discovery...a path to healing one's self. We are currently accepting new patients for individual, couples, and family therapy.

When I do my work, I am always asking myself the question, "What is it that this particular person needs in order to grow?" If I can provide you with an environment that helps you experience growth you will feel better. Personal development is what makes us happy and gives us hope. Most people come to therapy because they are hurting, stuck, and don't know what to do next. I will do my very best to help you find your unique self that you have either lost or not yet found.

I have been in private practice for 16 years and offer psychotherapy for adults 21 and over. I work with a broad range of issues including depression, anxiety, OCD, loss and relationship concerns. I incorporate faith-based principles as desired and am inclusive of all backgrounds and orientations. Typically, I work from a cognitive-behavioral approach and I include other theoretical frameworks to provide more effective outcomes. It would truly be my honor and privilege to help anyone seeking growth and fulfillment in life.
