Heinig Health and Wellness Counseling
Psychologist, Ph.D. Clinical Psychology, M.S. Health Psychology, M.A. Clinical Psychology, PSYPACT Providers
We provide evidence-based treatment for individuals navigating obesity and weight-related health concerns, drawing on health psychology principles to support sustainable behavior change and overall wellness. Our approach focuses on the complex interplay of emotional, behavioral, environmental, and physiological factors that influence eating, activity, and health habits. Through psychotherapy, clients develop practical skills for improving self-regulation, addressing emotional eating, building healthier routines, and strengthening motivation. We emphasize a compassionate, nonjudgmental framework that supports long-term well-being rather than short-term dieting, helping clients create meaningful and lasting lifestyle changes.

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 substantial 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.
