Find a Therapist in Mineola, Texas.

Psychotherapy is all about the art and the science of change. In my role as a psychotherapist my role is to gently discover the problems that people come to me for, what they have done to change those problems and what they would like to see happen. I then help them understand the nature of their problems from the standpoint of their thinking, emotions and behavior. I teach people about the neurophysiology of the brain and how that relates to change. Through the use of illustrations, handouts, and metaphors I help them to see that the change they want is possible for them. I give them specific step-by-step directions about how to effect this change and encourage and coach along every step.

Psychotherapy is a collaborative journey towards healing and self-discovery. Our skilled therapists offer a safe and nurturing space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with honesty and compassion.

Whether you're seeking short-term solutions or deeper insight, psychotherapy provides a supportive framework for personal growth and transformation. Together, we'll embark on a path towards greater self-awareness.

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.

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.

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.
