Find a Therapist in Edna, Texas.

I am here to assist my clients to identify and process emotions, feelings, and situations. I am very patient and I understand that therapy can not be rushed. It is important to develop a therapeutic bond between therapist and client. I want my clients to feel safe, heard, and understood every session. I want my clients to feel lighter and brighter after talk therapy sessions. Please feel free to ask questions or share concerns at any time. I like to start in the present and identify current stressors and issues. Sometimes the past needs to be processed and re-visited, and sometimes past issues may be too painful to process in the present.

There is a great value to having someone who hears you. Your story. Psychotherapy provides an ally. Someone who isn't there to judge, but there to listen and hear Your voice. Your therapist can provide an outside interpretation that is informed by their education, training and experience. Maybe you aren't alone. Maybe you don't have to do it on your own.

Lake Austin Psychotherapy offers general psychotherapy via the narrative perspective of externalization from the problem. Additional subconscious processing with EMDR can facilitate cognitive narrative connections that allow for new, adaptive perspectives to emerge. While past experiences cannot be changed, the story we tell ourselves can always evolve.

My approach to therapy is not a quick fix or a band-aid approach. It is not self-help advice or executive coaching. It is a process of research-proven, emotional surgery that gets at the heart of your issues and heals them at their source. If you’re like many of my clients, you’ve conquered in the workplace and found success. And yet, you’re not at peace with your life. Whether it’s stress, trauma, addiction, strained relationships, or a lack of motivation, something needs to change. Often, my role is to help successful men get their hearts back. I can help you rediscover your purpose, reconnect with what matters, heal your insecurities, improve your relationships, and leave a legacy.

With a holistic blend of therapies, including a focus on Somatic Experiencing, my practice offers transformative support for those navigating persistent mental health challenges. My approach is deeply rooted in understanding attachment dynamics and the unconscious processes shaping our lives, thanks to extensive training at The Menninger Clinic and practical experience in diverse therapeutic modalities like CBT and DBT. I am committed to creating a therapeutic space that fosters self-awareness, resilience, and growth, empowering clients to untangle complex emotional patterns and embark on a path to recovery.

This private practice is focused on helping clients create a balanced and joyful life. Everyone can discover the way that works best for him or her. It appears that we tend to focus way too much time and energy on "right vs. wrong." This seems to only cause more confusion, indecisiveness, and other insecurities. Seeking outside guidance in times of struggle can be powerful and transformative. One of the goals of this practice is to help clients discover a deeper sense of self and acceptance. Another intention of this practice practice is to help clients build and maintain the necessary tools they already have existing within themselves, and lead clients to new discoveries of living life in a more balanced and enjoyable way.
