Underwood Counseling & Consultation, PLLC takes an approach to treatment that is an integrated wellness model. We have worked extensively in the treatment of performance based anxieties, co-occurring chronic health conditions, & severe mental health diagnoses as well as in the treatment of trauma & adverse life events. We use research supported treatments such as EMDR, CBT, ART & Family System therapy.

My patients benefit from psychotherapy with me because I show them not only how to feel better but get better. Getting better means learning how they make themselves upset and how to stop doing this even when life and people are blocking them. I teach skills for directly changing self-defeating behavior. I give patients tools for self-direction and emotional responsibility. I send my patients emails to prompt them to think differently between sessions. I help them to transfer the skills I teach from my office to their home and work environments. I teach people how to maintain and extend treatment gains so that they do not need to be in psychotherapy forever.

Psychotherapy can provide a setting for you to sit, talk, think, and feel. As you do so in a supportive and understanding space, you will be able to develop more mature conclusions about your circumstances. For example, you might begin to see areas where you have relinquished your power and in so doing, reclaim your power. Psychotherapy provides a unique opportunity to identify your patterns, develop self-awareness, and make new choices.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy is about gaining self-awareness. When we can identify negative self-talk, we can begin to challenge it and replace it with healthy, positive self-talk. When we understand communication and relationship patterns, we can learn to set boundaries and create new patterns of behavior. When we learn that we are engaging in people-pleasing behaviors, we can explore why and then begin to seek validation from ourselves rather than someone else. Everyone has value.

The goal of therapy is to stop the behaviors that have had devastating effects on you and those around you and to create more of what you do want in your life; healthy relationships, meaningful time with family and friends, increased productivity at work, feeling comfortable in your own skin, and sustained peace of mind.

Using psychotherapy, or talk therapy, we will work together to tackle a broad variety of mental and emotional difficulties. Psychotherapy can help reduce your mental health symptoms such as depression and anxiety. I will deploy psychotherapeutic skills to help clients function better, regain a sense of control, and improve their mental wellbeing.

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.

I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which is a present focused psychotherapy and uses elements of traditional psychotherapy where the historical data is relevant to the present circumstances, thoughts and feelings that are being addressed. The client sets the agenda collaboratively with the therapist during each session. The client gains the tools over the course of therapy to use for a lifetime. Many clients see results quickly with CBT, and most see substantial results in 15 sessions.

psychotherapy is a transformative process that offers people a safe and supportive place to explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences. As a trained therapist, I am here to partner with you on your journey to enhanced self exploration as we work to tackle the challenges and wins you have along the way. In my sessions, you can expect to feel validated and heard as well as challenged (in a good way) so that you can bring your best foot forward into work, relationships, and adjustments to change. I am eager to get to know you and find out what strengths you bring to the table!

The pursuit of happiness can sometimes seem to be a non-reality to individuals with extenuating circumstances in life. Adverse childhood experiences many times have a negative impact on how we view the world. We develop anxious attachments, avoidant attachments, and a combination of both. Our subconscious thoughts of what we experience in our childhood are usually the culprit of our low self-esteem, lack of assertiveness. and overall pessimism of the world. We give our clients the opportunity to explore these past realities with a listening professional ear. We process through these experiences then provide a professional psychoanalysis. From there, we work together to improve your outlook.

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.

I create a safe environment for clients to be open and process their emotions. I will walk with you to identify experiences that may impede your sense of self. Many clients I see are working through issues related to family of origin. Once these issues are identified we begin to understand the underlying cause of our behaviors. The pain of childhood wounds, traumas, and old patterns and beliefs can negatively affect all aspects of life. I believe everyone has an inner knowing and the ability to heal. I will assist you to understand the dynamics of your family of origin so you can move forward in your life with courage.

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.

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.

Psychotherapy is collaborative effort between you and I, so that we can help you change your life. You bring your experiences and situations to me, and I give you feedback that can help you reach your goals. We will look at your thinking and I will show you how this impacts how you feel and the decisions that you make. We will also look at problems in your life and create solutions to these problems. Then we discuss how you can apply new decision-making patterns to other similar situations as they arise. Call or e-mail me today to set up a consultation to learn more about how psychotherapy can help you with your current situation and problems.
