Therapists in Kerr County, TX

I hope you take a moment to recognize how much work you’ve done to get to this place. You’ve survived this long, and you should be proud. For most folks, surviving on its own doesn’t cut it anymore. We need to make some adjustments to sustain a more grounded and full life. I want you to experience collaborative healing that is safe, free of judgment, occasionally humorous, and rooted in kindness and gratitude. I currently practice under Therapy Austin and Central Austin Psychotherapy offering in-person and telehealth services.

Hi! My name is Tanya Martinez-Cardenas. I'm a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor & owner of Unitive Counseling Services (UCS). I am the primary director and counselor at UCS. However, our team consists of recovery coaches, & an EMDR therapist. We specialize in addiction, depression, anxiety, and trauma. We offer Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (KAP). I currently have a Waitlist for new counseling clients; however, I am accepting DOT SAP clients. If you want to book an online DOT SAP session with me just click on the "website" icon here on this page. This is a program for DOT regulated employees who have failed a drug test.

Accepting new clients – Welcome, I've practiced psychotherapy for over 20 years and invite you to explore more about my approach here. If you find that you're interested in working together, please send an email. Perhaps you're reaching out because life's stressors have become overwhelming, relationships are challenging, or symptoms are too intense to handle alone. I specialize in depth-oriented therapy for adults facing personal, professional, or family challenges. I also support those who feel generally resilient and successful but are navigating significant stress.

Maybe you’re hitting up against some loneliness and isolation right now. Or maybe some old burdens are affecting your current life. Lets talk. I don't have any platitudes about positive thinking, but your story matters to me. The thing is, I really enjoy helping people cultivate resilience and self- compassion. Depression, Chronic Pain, Anxiety, Anger that’s hard to control, all these are adversities that we humans grapple with. I've been doing this for a minute. I can say for sure that there is no cookie-cutter solution. It's more about connection. My focus is to create the space for someone to know they aren’t alone in this.

If you're seeking a deeper understanding and improvement in your relationship with yourself and others, my practice offers a supportive setting for personal growth and exploration. We can tackle a variety of issues, such as anxiety, depression, relationship dynamics, & trauma, employing the Internal Family Systems model alongside mind-body techniques. These approaches allow us to delve into your emotional world, aiming for a greater understanding of the different aspects of yourself. This process is about transforming the way you relate to yourself and others, emphasizing the critical importance of your relationship with yourself.

Do you struggle with depression and anxiety? Is your mental health affecting your work, your family or your friendships? Do your thoughts seem to always fall into a negative loop of what could’ve been or what should be? Are you exhausted from trying to fix how you’re feeling with more work, more stuff, more sex, more drinks? Are you tired of laying awake at night unable to turn off your thoughts? Do you feel like you’re doing everything you’re suppose to but still wonder what’s missing? Could life be happier, more connected, less… miserable? If you identify with any of the above, you’re in the right place.

I welcome you to join me in a safe space for compassionate self-exploration. I work with individuals who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, and overwhelming emotions. I specialize in working with individuals who experienced difficult childhoods such as: dysfunctional families, emotionally immature parents, abuse and/or neglect, parental substance use and/or mental health issues, financial insecurity, immigration, or military brats.

Accepting New Clients in Texas and Florida. Welcome! I’m here to help you navigate your life challenges. Are you noticing that life is difficult to cope with because of your past trauma or overwhelming emotions? Perhaps you’re trying to calm your racing heart, stop overthinking, and reduce your anxiety. Are you trying to manage your stress? Control your anger? Or get yourself out of this depressed mood you’ve been feeling for a while? During our one-on-one sessions, we will be busy exploring what is preventing you from living the life you want and reaching your highest potential.

Hi, I am so glad you're here! Before you schedule with me, it is most important that you know my number one priority is for you to get the absolute best care. Are you feeling low-energy? Have you lost hope about your future? Do you want to stop having the same fights OVER & OVER again? I work with couples and individual adults to help them heal from conflict. We will look at negative patterns and find out how we can change negative patterns into positive relationships. You will learn how to manage conflict and decrease anxiety. I will consistently keep it real with you and check that you're seeing TRUE progress.

Are you suffering from anxiety? The physical symptoms can be so difficult, but I have seen clients get relief very quickly once they decide to seek care. My office offers a warm and inviting atmosphere where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. Every individual's journey is unique, and I will provide you with a treatment plan tailored to address your specific needs and get the results that you are looking for.

So you're doing the best you can & feeling it's just not good enough. Let's face it, you have limited resources & it's easy to feel overwhelmed by work, family, & society. If your life is out of balance & you can't remember how happiness felt; your procrastination or self medication is catching up with you; or you cannot communicate effectively with your family & the situation is spiraling out of control? It doesn't have to be this way. If you are finally sick and tired of feeling sick and tired...Let me help.

You're trapped, flooded, and hopeless—cluster f-k. The last thing you want to do is drag it out for months or years, talking about it repeatedly once a week for 50 minutes. Unwanted thoughts, knots in your stomach, debilitating social anxiety, and agonizing relationships - all that shit can be cleared like flushing down a commercial-grade toilet rather than in increments. If you have cancer, it only makes sense to surgically remove the cancer cells first before you start a weekly exercise regimen. The same goes for your problems.

One of my goals is to provide a safe environment so you feel comfortable discussing difficult life challenges. I guide you throughout the therapeutic process to help ease any anxiety regarding therapy. I utilize a strength-based approach to help you find healing through adversity. My work is motivated by my humanistic philosophy that empowerment exists in striving to meet full personal potential. I am passionate about helping others find healing, improve their quality of life, and achieve their therapeutic goals. I am qualified to work with first responders, physicians, military members, and those experiencing complex trauma.

In the face of pain we all have strategies to manage the discomfort, sometimes reacting in ways that feel out of our control. Many of us can experience a punitive, self-judging voice inside our head and disconnection from our body. I believe our symptoms -anxiety, depression, emotional reactivity, struggles with relationships, addiction, and stuck patterns— are our best attempts at self-regulation, adaptations we learned in overwhelming circumstances. These are learned responses that can be unlearned. They're communications from unintegrated/shadow parts of ourselves that can be welcomed as guides (sometimes reluctantly, painfully).

I am passionate about helping others enhance connections in their lives and live more authentically. I support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma by utilizing deep listening, collaboration, mindfulness, vulnerability, and building trust. I offer support around pregnancy, miscarriage, postpartum issues, parenting, divorce, men’s issues, career goals, and intergenerational trauma. Currently, I offer two therapy groups: a group for New Moms (babies welcome!) and a Men's Processing Group.

Change is inevitable. Pain is probable. Suffering is optional. Many of us already have the strength to manage change but need a little help finding the courage and confidence. That is why I take a collaborative, flexible, transformational, dynamic, and strength-based approach to empower clients to face life’s circumstances. I could help equip you with just tools to tackle your personal and professional obstacles or I can work alongside you and through dialogue help you to develop your own tools for long term sustainable strategies and an independent and purposeful life.
