Psychotherapy is the process of responsible change through a variety of resources. If simply wanting something different in your life were enough, your transformation would already have happened. Most of us need insight on how to make a difference, whether in relationship to others or in our own personhood. While change is hard and most humans don't do it easily, an experienced guide shines a light on new paths for living a more fulfilling life. With 30 years experience, a trove of techniques and skillful presence, counseling individuals and couples to grow into new ways of being with self and others is a lifelong calling I'm privileged to share.

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.

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.
