Find a Therapist in Kerrville, Texas.

Psychotherapy is the process by which we learn about ourselves and how to overcome difficulties in the context of a caring, supportive therapy relationship. I practice from a family systems perspective, which means we look at the individual in the context of their most important relationships. Though family members may not be present, we all have important people in our lives, and it is important to deal with them in forgiving, assertive ways with good boundaries. Cognitive behavioral therapy deals with our thoughts and subsequent actions, and generally feelings improve when our thoughts and actions are healthier. Progress can be made toward a more satisfying life through therapy.

You can freely explore your ideas and feelings in the private, compassionate setting of our psychotherapy sessions. We will identify and address underlying issues using individualized strategies, promoting self-awareness and resilience. Together, we'll create useful coping skills and confront unproductive mental habits. You will be given the tools you need to manage life's obstacles with newfound clarity and purpose thanks to this method. Our therapy relationship will provide ongoing support and encourage constructive change, ensuring that you always feel heard and understood on your path to mental health.

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 psychotherapy is rooted in fostering a therapeutic alliance built on trust, empathy, and active listening. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in depth. Through a client-centered and integrative approach, clients will benefit from tailored interventions and techniques that address their unique needs and goals. I strive to empower clients to gain self-awareness, develop coping strategies, and facilitate personal growth.

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.

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.
