Brainspotting Therapists in Austin, TX

Have you lost your way? Do you feel misunderstood? Do you feel alone? Perhaps your life was headed in one direction when you were hit by the unthinkable that suddenly changed the entire trajectory of your life and now you feel lost, alone, and without direction. Or perhaps you are in a relationship with someone that you love that has gradually become mentally or spiritually abusive and you have lost the person inside yourself that you used to be. My role is to give you a safe place to process your story, aloud and uncensored. I will listen for the themes of your journey and help you identify what you still need for your new path of hope-- whether it's practical tools, life-giving relationships, new perspectives, or spiritual healing. I will be there to support you, as you take one step at a time to walk the path of life in the freedom that God desires for you.

You may find yourself having the same conversations over and over, feeling misunderstood, or noticing distance where there used to be connection. Maybe communication turns into conflict, or things go quiet and unresolved. Intimacy may feel strained, inconsistent, or absent altogether. You care about the relationship, but something isn’t working—and you’re not sure how to change it. This is a space grounded in intention, honesty, and meaningful connection. You can speak openly here, be challenged with clarity, and begin developing the skills needed to create lasting change in your relationships. We understand that talking about relationship and intimacy concerns can feel vulnerable. You don’t have to navigate that alone. Our role is to meet you with respect, professionalism, and directness—guiding the conversations that are often difficult to have, but necessary for growth. You can expect a calm, steady presence and an approach that balances emotional insight with practical tools. This is not about perfection. It is about taking responsibility, increasing awareness, and learning how to show up differently—for yourself and within your relationships.

If you are looking for guidance with anxiety, fears, depression, or trauma and ptsd, it takes courage to ask for help. Admitting you can’t do everything on your own, is the first step toward achieving wellness in a fast-paced, demanding world. You are an expert on your situation. You understand it better than anyone because you are always in it, but when was the last time you stepped away to look at it from a new perspective? My approach is focused on helping you feel that you are whole, capable, enough, and doing your best - because you are. Maybe, you just need some new skills to cope with all that goes on in your life. What you have learned in life never covered this. Or, perhaps, you've been feeling stuck in the same cycle of symptoms and are ready to try new skills to gain relief. We will work together to implement practical skills, create new habits, and get you moving again. My approach is more active. I will be an active participant in your healing journey. Together, we will identify your most important goals and needs and work on a plan to get you there.

Seeking help can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. I take the time to truly understand you and your symptoms. Together, we will explore your options, make necessary adjustments, and check in regularly to ensure your treatment aligns with your goals. At Relief Mental Health, you are more than a diagnosis, and medication management is more than just a prescription. It would be a privilege to walk beside you and work together to help you feel better with care that is steady, supportive, and designed entirely around you. If you are ready to take the next step, please let me know how I can best support you.

I take an integrative, holistic approach that blends evidence-based psychological methods with mindfulness and body-based practices. I help clients process trauma, difficult emotions, and life stressors by working with both the mind and body. My work may include Brainspotting for trauma processing, cognitive-behavioral strategies for shifting unhelpful thinking patterns, and developing greater acceptance of difficult thoughts and emotions. I view therapy as a collaborative process, combining my clinical training with your knowledge of your own experiences.

Austin's explosive tech-industry growth has brought an influx of young professionals navigating burnout, identity shifts, and the pressures of rapid lifestyle change in an increasingly expensive city. The city has a large LGBTQ+ community and strong demand for affirming therapists specializing in gender identity, relationship dynamics, and life transitions. The University of Texas and major hospital systems including Ascension Seton and St. David's HealthCare provide supplementary mental health resources alongside the city's growing network of private practices. Many Austin therapists offer telehealth, making it easier to find care across the wider metro and surrounding Hill Country communities.
