I work with individuals experiencing stress related to work, relationships, or daily life demands. Ongoing stress can impact both emotional and physical well-being, and therapy focuses on identifying sources of stress and developing effective coping strategies.

I provide a supportive space where clients can better manage stress and restore a sense of balance.

Stress
Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety, stress, confusion, sadness, and pain - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. While many of us strive to get rid of our stress, research in psychology shows that a life without stress if fairly boring. I enjoy helping my clients reframe some of their stressors as challenges, learning how to deal with these challenges, and having success stories to lean back on to feel inherently good about themselves. If you live in a state of constant stress, we need to re-calibrate you so your body isn't constantly swimming in cortisol!

Stress
Kevin Brown, Therapy in Mindfulness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Stress is an inevitable part of life, but how we navigate it makes all the difference. Healthy stress keeps us motivated, focused, and engaged, while chronic or overwhelming stress can weigh us down, deplete our energy, and follow us long after the stressful moment has passed. In our work together, we will explore how stress affects you physically and emotionally, develop somatic tools for regulation, and cultivate practices that support balance and resilience. My goal is to help you move through life’s challenges with greater ease, learning how to release tension, restore your energy, and reconnect with a sense of calm and strength.

Stress
Dr. Carolina Castanos, PhD, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Stress is a signal that we are under some sort of threat. Stress is not always bad, it is an excellent adaptive mechanism. When it is there for too long, it generalizes situations, and can be detrimental for relationships, physical and emotional health. I help discover the root cause of stress.

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.
