I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in clinical neuropsychology for children, adults, and seniors. I bring a compassionate, yet scientifically-based, approach to the assessment of intellectual, academic,sports, cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning. I specialize in traumatic brain injury, stroke, post concussion care, ADHD, PTSD, and cognitive learning disorders.

Overthink much? I'll help you reduce your anxiety and teach you how to manage your OCD brain. I use a variety of modalities, including narrative therapy, mindfulness, and inner child work. We know that the body keeps the score. You will feel your anxiety before knowing what you are anxious about. I'll help you become aware of your thinking. Once we know the triggers that produced those negative, intrusive thoughts, we will examine why our conscious thoughts provoke such big emotions. Hint: those big emotions are rooted in your childhood and live in your subconscious. That's why little events feel so darn big.

I collaborate with clients to resolve problems in living, to promote emotional growth and to facilitate personal and professional success. My therapeutic style is warm, direct and interactive. I believe that each of us can make mindful choices to create a gratifying life, to care for ourselves, our families and relationships. We can practice skillfully and create meaning in the difficulties and catastrophes that can complicate our course.

Recovery can simultaneously be the most rewarding and demanding part of your life. It can leave you feeling exposed and raw at the end of the day even though your recovery has shown you are resilient. Recovery from alcohol and other substances involves daily hard work and at times can feel monotonous. Anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and other life struggles just seem to add to an already daunting process. The fear of relapsing into old habits and behaviors can be all-consuming and can cloud your reasons for exploring sobriety in the first place.

Are you struggling with relationships? Do you suffer from deep anxiety or depression? Do you feel stuck or alone? Through my facilitation and guidance of the therapeutic process combined with the safety created in the space between us, we can work toward healing. Therapy with me is highly relational, as I recognize the importance of establishing trust and safety in order for therapy to happen. As a therapist, I utilize an integrative, holistic approach, with IFS, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Attachment theory as anchoring modalities. My areas of focus include generalized anxiety & depression, relationships & trauma.

I have been in the social work field since 2004 and bring a wide variety of professional and personal experience to my practice. I am a provider best described as empathetic and dedicated, who makes appropriate use of my sense of humor. You can expect that I will seek to learn as much as you're willing to share and to creatively tailor your experience to best serve you. My versatility and knowledge make me a holistic therapist. My non-traditional upbringing taught me sensitivity to every family’s situation. My practice is shaped by my belief that being real is better than being perfect.

The focus for my practice is reproductive counseling. I help clients facing struggles with infertility, pregnancy and infant loss, and perinatal mood disorders. I work to form a strong relationship with clients to help them understand the many transitions and some loss that accompanies new parenthood or expanding families. I also see clients who have moved on from having children and are now facing the changes that come with peri-menopausal syndrome and menopause. My approach to this work is through a relational approach with some cognitive behavioral and mindfulness strategies.

The core issue that we focus on at Glasshouse Effect Psychotherapy is trauma. When defining trauma, I like to quote Gabor Mate who states that Trauma is not what happens to you, it is what happens inside you. The traumatic event may have been the abandonment that happened years ago, but the trauma itself is the crippling fear inside when someone we love doesn't respond quickly enough. Unfortunately, we can't change the past, but we Can change the ways it affects our present and our future. I hope to offer you closure by helping you understand the How and Why of your trauma.

Many of my clients have difficult family relationships, struggle with boundaries, and are working on finding love within, rather than externally. I help them discover how to create a life with more love, more patience, and more peace. It is possible to live more in line with your values, to connect more fully in relationships, and to understand yourself in new ways. I believe that people change when we feel safe.  Through a genuine and trust-centered therapy relationship, we create room for self-acceptance and your life can improve.

I help people recover from traumatic events and hurtful relationships. I enjoy working with adolescents to adults figure out what they want out of life, and remove the things that are holding them back. If you come from a messed up family, you will find that I offer unwavering support in an environment where you are deeply valued and exceptionally safe. I enjoy working with couples and individuals in nontraditional homes and relationships, parents at the end of their wits, couples about to call it quits, people recovering from religious abuse or neglect, and artists, musicians, and creatives.

Finding answers, resolutions, and ultimately healing in the middle of some of life's most difficult times can be challenging. Help is about being guided to internal solutions that may be hidden by the intensity of the pain or the complexity of the challenge. Austin Counseling Associates can help. As practitioners of counseling arts, we are deeply committed to being present, connected, creative, and caring. Through the use of these attributes, we seek to guide clients down a path of discovery...a path to healing one's self. We are currently accepting new patients for individual, couples, and family therapy.

I believe we all have good intentions. I've been working in counseling for 15 years, and I've found that everyone is trying to do what they feel is right. Unfortunately, experiences that shaped us and the environment in which we were raised can lead us to question what we believe to be right. This confusion can lead to depression, anxiety, attention deficit, and addiction. I love working with clients who know what they want to do and who they want to be, but are struggling to make that happen. Contact me. Let's work together to create your best, most authentic self.

Welcome, my name is Bryan Adkins and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Texas. For over 12 years, I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in the Inpatient, Partial Hospitalization, and employer settings. I specialize in several areas including anxiety, depression, coping skills, anger management, and self esteem, amongst others.

Hi! I'm a relational therapist, meaning I work with adults to improve the relationships in their life. This can be romantic relationships, parenting, work/peer relationships, family of origin (parents/siblings), in-laws, and/or friendships. I’m passionate about helping people build and strengthen their relationships because I know, personally, how dysfunctional relationships can impact your daily life. Whether you are faced with childhood trauma, marital issues, unhealthy boundaries or lack of intimacy (to name a few), I'm here to sit with you as we navigate through the waters.

I firmly believe that every one of us is born with inherent worth, strengths, and gifts. Sometimes what happens to us on life’s journey interferes with our ability to see those. Sometimes our self-worth seems elusive or lacking altogether. I have a passion for helping clients reclaim that self-worth and capitalize on those valuable strengths and gifts. Whether you have been struggling with substance use, behavioral addictions, compulsive behaviors, codependency, anxiety, depression, or any of life’s challenging transitions, I would love to help you break through those self-defeating thoughts and counterproductive behaviors.

My clinical and research expertise includes the range of anxiety and stress-related disorders, especially PTSD, OCD, panic, social anxiety, and generalized anxiety. My approach is non-judgmental, compassionate, caring, and fundamentally science-based. I have extensive training and experience working with clients and their families across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, adults, and Veterans. I am also well-versed in delivering several gold-standard CBT and exposure-based treatments. I view meaningful connections and delivering evidence-based treatments as the most important factors that drive therapeutic change.
