Therapists in Austin, TX

Are you struggling with recent personal or societal events, past or present traumas or losses, life transitions, or general life stressors? Do you need help navigating how to deal with these things in a productive, meaningful, or healthy way? Then you have come to the right place and I am happy you are here. We can expect to experience at least one or all of the above issues at some point in our lives, but we are not expected to endure them alone. I enjoy helping people who are struggling with grief, anxiety, boundaries, life transitions, & illness to name a few; while providing a warm, safe space for you to be authentic and heard.

We all have experiences in life that are beyond our ability to cope. Following such events, many people feel distress for weeks, months, or years after. Are you "stuck" with the thoughts and feelings brought about by one or more traumatic experiences? Have you noticed a change in your mood, relationships, or work-life following a traumatic event? If you're interested in taking steps to change your relationship to your trauma, then we may be a good fit.

How did I get here? Relationship stress, battling an eating disorder or general mental leaves us feeling disconnected, hurt and alone. We find ourselves stuck in negative repetitive patterns of trying to solve the problem but to no resolve. We find ourselves feeling unheard or unseen which leads to wanting to argue and/or shut down/avoid. The more we try to break free from this repetitive coping pattern, the more hurt and alone we feel. We desperately long for comfort and healing. Whether this is impacting how you cope personally or getting in the way of connecting with your loved one - there is help.

I am a fluent bilingual Counselor (EN/SP) capable of helping those challenged by addiction issues to address or recover from them while also managing your relationships with friends, families, and loved ones.

Hi! Looks like you are looking for a counselor. It is important you find the right person. Here is a little information on what I believe and my experience as a counselor. I believe every person is inherently good and is working to become a better version of themselves. Sometimes assistance is needed to facilitate the changes you want to make. That's where I come in.

I believe the transforming power of psychotherapy begins with a connection between you and I. Our conversations create a safe space for you to explore your life and grow in the confidence of your worth, your aspirations, and your life circumstances. From this awareness comes a deeper knowing of yourself and a more effective "hands on" capacity for dealing thoughtfully and constructively with the challenges of life. Together, we define your goals for therapy, and together we create the path to make these goals your reality.

No one else can know how we perceive, we are the best experts on ourselves - Carl Rogers. My view is that you are the only expert on your life; your story is unique and deserves to be heard. I remain committed to understanding the expressions of who you are and who you want to be in supporting you toward your own personal growth and fulfillment. I envision my role as a collaborator with you in supporting your further understanding of self.

Supervised by Sidney Starling M.Ed., LPC-S, LMFT-S. You are taking the first step to your healing process, Congratulations! Thank you for taking the time to focus on your mental health by wanting to explore those areas in your life that have resulted in any kind of emotional distress. I am passionate about supporting clients in overcoming challenging situations by helping them find their own skills and strengths that can facilitate their growth and well-being.

I enjoy working with people who want change, but don't know where to start. I specialize in helping people who grew up in difficult family situations and now struggle with relationships and/or depression and anxiety. We can call it trauma, complex trauma, borderline personality disorder or just being a person in this world. I work with people by thinking about relationships and attachment, and I also use evidence based practices including EMDR for trauma, DBT for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and CBT for help understanding the inner workings of our minds and making changes to how we go through life.

We all encounter major stress and loss and often we recover well on our own. Sometimes life becomes overwhelming, confusing and too big to process alone. You can reach out for support, and you don’t have to do it alone. Through therapy, you have the power to focus on what helps you learn and grow. I am passionate about helping clients connect to their core values in therapy. We'll use mindfulness-based therapies to help you become aware of thoughts and behaviors that prevent you from experiencing a joyful and authentic life. I enjoy using humor, creativity and self-compassion in my practice.

Hello, I'm Sandra Morrow, and I'm here to be a supportive guide on your path to healing and growth. Over the past four years, I've had the privilege of counseling individuals under the expert supervision of Dr. Cameron Ortega. Through this experience, I've developed a profound understanding of the complexities surrounding addiction, depression, anxiety, and various relationship challenges. My passion is rooted in helping individuals navigate the journey of recovery. Whether you're battling addictions, grappling with overwhelming feelings of depression or anxiety, or facing complexities within your relationships.

Sometimes our lives get to a point where we're just surviving, rather than thriving. In survival mode, we cope the best we can - this may mean using disordered eating behaviors, self-harm, substance use, self-criticizing inner talk, or self-destruction. I'm here to help guide you out of survival mode and into your best life. In therapy, we'll explore how you're surviving and how you can thrive. We'll identify changes you want and I will offer suggestions to help you create these changes. We will balance this change with lots of self-compassion.

TEXAS - Statewide Psychotherapy via Telehealth; OUTCoaching & Psychotherapy has the sole focus of working with men who have sex and relationships with men. Our experience has shown that men today are asking questions about how to be a part of the culture of masculinity, image, and success, while striking a balance with emotional maturity, wisdom, and even spirituality. You are making tough choices about your sex and relationship needs. You are struggling with the pros and cons that come with apps and hooking up. For some, addictions and compulsions further complicate it all.

We, as human beings, are all on a path through life dealing with our own unique conflicts (be it interior or exterior) and struggles from our lives before this point. Everyday is a new chance to devote effort in ourselves with a goal to make ourselves better than the day before. We are all striving to be the absolute best version of ourselves we can be, even if your version looks different than the next person's. Even if you are unsure of your own matters of contention and unable to see the prospects of your future, I am dedicated to starting or continuing on this journey with you.

If there's one thing we all learn in life, it's that times of struggle do come. Fortunately, with strength and healing, they also pass. My job is to help others move through life's difficult journeys. Whether it's a distressing life transition, moving on from a previous trauma, debilitating depression, or a desire for growth and change, I can help you begin the path to healing. You possess the strength to live a happy, fulfilled life and working through your thoughts, feelings, and emotions can help you do so.

My overall goal of therapy is holding you accountable in a nonjudgmental way that supports your goals, validates your efforts, and challenges you in a way that aligns with your worldview. I like to offer feedback in an objective way and suggest skills and perspectives that you choose whether or not to implement. The methodology of my approach is conversation; two people in a room trying to figure things out while utilizing various perspectives, theories, and attempts. An emphasis of my time with you is always you; your goals, thoughts, emotions, and beliefs are valuable and I find exploring them in a therapeutic setting helpful.

Our emotions, behaviors and relationships can be overwhelming to make sense of. Having the support of an unbiased perspective can help as we grow beyond the things that cause us discomfort. As a systems therapist, I understand the issues brought into the therapy in relation to the school, work, relational, societal and intergenerational systems involved. Yes, that does mean talking about your parents and how the messages you received in your family have shaped you. It also means talking about the ways culture, race, sexuality, work environments and history affect the ways we feel and behave.

At the heart of my approach is the belief that human beings naturally possess the power to heal, change, and grow. With that in mind, I encourage and support a collaborative process between myself and the client. The purpose of forming this therapeutic relationship is to enable the client to identify the obstacles and resolve the conflicts which interfere with his or her ability to live life fully.
