Find a Therapist in Wharton, Texas.

I mainly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Logotherapy in my practice. With CBT, my work with clients involves using the relationships between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to make your goals happen. With Logotherapy, our work would begin by exploring your values and identifying any obstacles to living a meaningful life. While these are my main approaches, I tend to tailor treatment plans to match each client's goals and concerns.

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.

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.

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 compassionate, holistic, and client-centered. I work collaboratively with clients to explore their unique experiences, focusing on personal strengths and fostering self-awareness. Through a blend of evidence-based therapies, including cognitive-behavioral, narrative, and mindfulness-based techniques, I aim to empower individuals to navigate life’s challenges with resilience. I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can develop deeper self-understanding, improve emotional regulation, and cultivate meaningful, lasting change that aligns with their personal values and goals.

I counsel using a combination of clinical training and experience as well as biblical principles.

Or, perhaps, you need support for something that cannot be changed, such as major loss. Psychotherapy offers a way to first understand what is bothering you on a deep level, understand what the source of the concern is, and then movement toward changing what can be changed. I use a number of professionally recognized approaches to assist you, including supportive therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, family systems understanding, EMDR, and other approaches tailored to your personal goals. During our work together, I offer respectful, compassionate guidance.

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.

Living with a mental health issue can be very difficult and overwhelming, leaving you feeling alone and uncertain of where to turn.
