Jewish Therapists in Fayette County, TX

My approach can best be described as Relational-- I work hard to form a relationship based on the needs of the client.. I try to help you quickly feel at ease and both tell and show me who you are by the way you relate to me. I use this information to help me understand you, and to help you understand how you may come across to others, in a supportive, accepting way, that I hope breeds self-acceptance. I also address depression, anxiety, sex and sexuality, family of origin issues, shame, and self-esteem among other issues.

We often face difficult challenges and personal setbacks in life, but “stress” doesn’t have to become “distress”. You may be balancing a number of stressors, like work and relationships, while trying your hardest to keep anxiety or depression from getting in the way of personal goals. Whatever brought you here today, trying to cope with all everything on your own might feel almost impossibly overwhelming and lonely at times. But you aren't alone: together we can figure out ways for you to balance these stressors and overcome setbacks.

Therapy is a partnership, and we will work collaboratively to achieve your goals. I believe in providing a compassionate and nonjudgmental space for you to process and grow. Everyone’s needs are different therefore I take a highly individualized approach when working with you. My background as a community organizer has also taught me that community care is self-care, and that social justice work is also healing work. Systemic oppression impacts our lives in many ways, and I invite you to unpack those issues in our sessions. Note: My practice is currently 100% virtual.

Working closely with couples, adults, and college students is my passion and it is ultimately what led me to pursue clinical practice. I see clients with a wide variety of experiences, but specialize in: stress and depression, couples seeking to improve their communication/intimacy/relationship, dating and long-term couples needing support during times of change, individuals with high stress careers, LGBTQ+ issues, mindfulness and self-compassion, and goal setting/achievement. I believe in the importance of integrative health, and offer therapy online, in person in Northwest Hills (Austin), and outdoors.

Are you seeking a relaxed, non-judgmental space where you can share your story and move past what’s been holding you back?

I work with adults struggling with relationship issues, such as codependency, conflict-avoidance, and people-pleasing, who want to improve their ability to communicate their needs, set boundaries, and trust themselves. I also help individuals who are experiencing significant life transitions and confusion around their identity, find clarity and richer meaning in their lives. Additionally, I have a passion for supporting those who are confronting cancer or a terminal illness, navigate and better tolerate the uncertainty, isolation and mental turmoil that often accompany these challenges.

Hello! My name is Lesley, and I offer individual and family therapy services to adolescents (12 and up) and adults. Before moving to Austin, I spent several years in Houston, where I completed my Master’s at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work and graduated from Rice University with my Bachelor’s in Psychology. I have experience working with depression and mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, and eating disorders in outpatient, Intensive Outpatient, and Partial Hospitalization settings.

I work with individuals and families to navigate the complexities associated with mental health and substance use challenges. My expertise is in the treatment of anxiety, depression, addiction, and OCD. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in business development for various tech companies in the United States and internationally. My journey through these non-clinical careers gives me a unique ability to identify and treat individuals using non-clinical skills who need direction applicable to their complex journeys.

I love working with children, adolescents and adults who may struggle with anxiety, depression, family issues, or any other day-to-day challenges. My ideal client's goals would be for them to become the best version of themselves and be ready to work in and outside of therapy; wanting happiness, health, and overall a better sense of belonging and direction for their life. I can help by walking alongside of you as your guide, helping you navigate life's greatest challenges through kindness, support, and self awareness.

You might be feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, struggling to deal with intrusive thoughts and anxiety, or have unresolved past traumas that affect your ability to cope in the present. Maybe you feel like there is only a thin skin between you and the world, and distinguishing your needs from others’ desires while setting healthy boundaries in relationships can be challenging. Whatever your experience might be, I’m here with you to uncover more safety, ease and joy in areas that have felt blocked, so your authentic self can emerge.

How do you define adulthood in a modern world? No one tells you how to be an adult. Or maybe too many people tell you too many things. And how do you know when you’ve gotten there? The answer to this question is different for everyone. It’s not surprising you’re feeling lost, confused, anxious, or depressed thinking about adulthood. Our brains continue to develop well into our mid-20s, yet society expects us to have things figured out by then. I know I definitely didn’t! People wait much longer to meet the milestones of previous generations, and then are just expected to know how to navigate everything in the meantime.

I’m here to help you feel less overwhelmed, stuck, hopeless or helpless. To help you quiet your brain/body, organize your thoughts, and figure out not just where all this stuff comes from, but what you can do about it. Sometimes I help people find answers inside themselves they already knew, sometimes I help people get outside of themselves and use insights from our fellow humans, from nature, science, spirituality, philosophy, you name it. I’m a straight talker, AND I don’t judge— literally, I can teach you how to use a nonjudgmental stance— and possibly most importantly, I bring some FUN to this process!

I specialize in guiding individuals dealing with issues including relationship challenges, setting healthy boundaries, managing anxiety, overcoming perfectionism, shedding people-pleasing tendencies, and adapting to major life changes, as well as adult ADHD. In short, many issues that I am personally, as well as professionally, very familiar with! If you're currently navigating any of these aspects of life, I am confident that we can work together to help you rediscover joy and contentment.

I primarily work with Men ages 20-45. I GET it, therapy is hard and scary. There is no way around that. It is very difficult diving into your emotions and sometimes pushing yourself to FEEL can feel even worse... I have been in your shoes. Before I became a therapist, I was right there. What changed my life was finally committing to myself and my happiness. Like everyone, this is a daily battle, but now I have a team of support to make life easier. I offer to be a therapist who can listen, support, and explore your pains, struggles, and parts unseen. I will always be here on your worst days and excited about your best.

Frederick Fox applies his extensive experience in clarifying and creating a path for resolving career, family and communication issues. His goal is for you to increase your sense of control and develop a positive expectation for your life. He goes as fast or as slow as fits your current situation.

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.

Congratulations on taking the first step to a more authentic, self-compassionate, and healed YOU. I work with my clients in a warm, comfortable, inviting, and non-judgmental environment. I like to provide a space where clients feel comfortable processing difficult emotions so they can leave the session feeling a greater sense of resilience, confidence, and happiness. I primarily specialize in grief/loss/bereavement and trauma/PTSD. I also have extensive experience and training in eating disorders, LGBTQ+, domestic violence and sexual violence, depression, anxiety, relationship and interpersonal struggles, and life transitions.
