Psychotherapy is a word used to distinguish from other therapies such as Occupational or Physical therapy. Psychotherapy is counseling to help the psyche. I provide both traditional talk psychotherapy as well as creative interventions in therapy. You often hear psychotherapists referred to as a Shrink. I like to think of myself as an "Un Shrink". I like to help you turn your internal thought processes around so that you can live more fully and authentically rather than shrunken. Feeling shrunk hurts and leads to feeling the need for therapy. Feeling full, complete and good enough (i.e. un-shrunk) leads to healthy living.

Talk therapy can be helpful with a wide range of issues. I want to work with you not just to get to the root of the issues that make it difficult to cope with life, but also the secret strengths you have that can make things easier. I am strengths focused, and able to help you with quick, short term advancements. I am also available for long term sessions so we can reinforce the things we learn along the way.

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.

In my psychotherapy approach, I assess possible past issues a client may need to re-visit. Some people have long-standing unresolved issues from their past, which need to be addressed in psychotherapy. Although an individual's past may certainly need to be examined, my main focus in psychotherapy is to improve the person's current situation and move toward a more positive future. Clients can potentially benefit from gaining better control of their lives by improving coping skills, having more positive relationships, and gaining confidence in their ability to be stronger emotionally, physically, and spiritually, I provide a safe and supportive environment in which to examine their lives.

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.

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.
