Therapists in Austin, TX

I had a psychology practice in Austin for 20 years, relocating to Albuquerque in 2012. As an outgrowth of my continuing work with clients from Texas, I have developed a specialty in providing internet therapy. My specialties include eating disorders, complex mood disorders, personality disorders, recovery from narcissistic abuse, and helping families with "failure to launch" young adults. I also provide consultation to parents who are struggling with an oppositional adolescent or an adult child with ongoing difficulties. I provide both therapeutic and forensic psychological evaluations.

Clients are looking for safety and trust in therapy. They have experienced loss, trauma, changes, choices... in short they have experienced life in its entire spectrum. We all need help navigating our own unique spectrum of life at times and therapy is a great place to get that help! We all want to feel we matter and are heard. We want to feel known to someone. Someone who listens and hears. Someone who may have experienced something similar or worked with a similar issue. Someone who will walk with us through the challenges we are facing. That is what therapy is here for. Are you ready?

Do you feel unsupported? I believe that all humans are born with unique strengths and have the power hidden inside us to live life to its fullest. I am here to facilitate you in the process of unleashing your power to reach your potential in your life. I believe you are the person who is in complete control and in charge of your life and your goals. My counseling practice is directed by the Person-Centered approach, CBT, and EMDR; I use other theories as needed, like TFCBT, DBT, Narrative, and alternative therapies like mindfulness and Expressive Art Therapy. I provide a nonjudgemental safe space for my clients to heal.

Tiffany believes therapy is not a one size fits all and that different approaches or modalities may work for a client or situation and not another. Her therapeutic interests include trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety, postpartum depression, personality disorders, relationships, Narcissistic Personality Abuse Awareness. She has a passion for helping others discover issues related to self worth, coping skills, boundaries, communication, shame, and assist the client in developing the tools necessary to improve such issues.

Are you walking on eggshells in your relationship? Do you feel drained and underappreciated as you try to fill your partner's needs? Maybe your family doesn't feel as close and you feel guilty because friends stopped reaching out. You may feel lost and unsure, stopped taking care of yourself, or don't put your needs first.

At Restoration House Texas, our goal is to challenge and empower individuals in order to promote healing. Our therapists specialize in meeting people where they are and holistically allowing them to elevate to where they wish to be.

My goal is to help individuals and couples achieve peace and contentment by increasing self-awareness and recognizing behaviors that no longer serve them. I make it my aim to partner with clients on their journey, identify their strengths, help distinguish areas for growth, and provide clients with non-judgmental support along the way. I believe that strong and fulfilling relationships with other individuals can help people maintain emotional well-being. I have 20+ years of experience in mental health, including individual, marriage, group counseling, crisis intervention, and substance abuse assessments.

I strive to create a trusting bond with each of my clients as we work collaboratively to address specific needs and explore optimal goals. I combine aspects from psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and culturally sensitive perspectives to help my clients through challenges they are facing while better appreciating who they are. Together, my patients and I will explore the stories and struggles that have shaped them including early familial attachments, traumas, and multigenerational patterns that have had great impact on the present day.

Do you want to live a happy and deeply fulfilling life? Like many, you probably want more for yourself, but you just can't seem to get there. Instead, life is constantly happening to you, and you are left feeling out of control. If so, you're not alone. I understand how overwhelming it is to want to change but not to know how to do it by yourself. I have good news for you! You already have everything you need to live a happy, whole life. You have the strength to overcome whatever challenges life throws at you. No matter where you are in your journey, the next step is easier than you think.

Most of my experience has been with people who are still suffering a lot even though they have tried a lot of therapy and medications. I want you to know I recognize the pain of feeling like nothing can help, and respect the wisdom and willingness it takes to keep trying despite everything you have been through. If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts, painful or unsatisfying relationships, the impact of trauma, or unhelpful patterns in how you try to cope with overwhelming pain, I want to support you.

I am trained to provide psychotherapy from an approach rooted in a psychodynamic, humanistic, and a multicultural framework. I integrate other disciplines, such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI) when needed.

It is a brave and courageous step to start this healing journey. Have you noticed yourself, or child feel overwhelmed? Have you experienced hurt, that causes you struggles in your daily life and relationships? Do you need a safe space to process difficult emotions or issues? Do you need assistance as a caregiver to connect with your child more? I would be honored to help you navigate any of these life stressors. I want my clients to gain as many skills as possible; leaving therapy feeling well equipped to manage any curve ball thrown your way.

I view treatment as a safe space where healing can occur through the process of unpeeling multiple layers of mental and emotional patterns (conscious and unconscious), leading individuals to discover their strengths, true potential and authentic self. In this process, one can feel empowered and inspired to integrate all parts of self, even those hidden from the conscious mind. This delicate work is only possible when trust and alliance are established between therapist and client. The principles guiding this work are unconditional acceptance, compassion and non-judgment.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Texas and New Mexico, offering a personable approach to psychotherapy for Couples & Individuals. I have experience working with all types of mental health disorders in various settings (individual, group, couples, family). My focus is on personal wellness for the individual and the family system. My goal is to work on the issues at hand using the most up to date research proven methods. I am passionate about empowering clients to find their voice & gain insight in a supportive & non-judgmental environment.

I believe that treatment should not simply focus on the problems in your life. Effective treatment should also identify what is working or could work and help you take that to the next level. I seek to empower people with the skills, insight, and wisdom to help themselves. I use a collaborative approach to help people increase awareness of where they have been, who they are now, and where they would like to take their future. I utilize evidenced-based treatments to ensure the highest level of efficacy while tailoring the treatments to the unique circumstances of each individual.

EMDR and DBT trained. Currently training in somatic experiencing. Whether you are looking to make an important decision or become free of unwanted habits, then I am here to partner with you in this process. You have the answers inside and, together, we will find the next step forward. It will take deliberate actions, such as looking honestly at oneself, and a safe space to do so. Regardless of any manifestation of trauma, grief, or mental health dis-ease, you can and will create a life you love by first looking inward. "What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality." -Plutarch, ancient Greek philosopher.

I believe in therapy. It helps us become unstuck, freeing us to move closer towards our goals and who we want to be. It allows us to begin healing from our past and transforms how we feel and act in our current relationships. It gives us support in times of crisis and stress, allowing us to become even more resilient in the future. And it frees us from habitual patterns that cause suffering in our lives.

I support people as they go through some of life's tougher times. I do not "fix" anyone. I help people remember the truth about their worth and value and guide them as they practice living from that truth whether it's for the first time or not. When we get afraid and empty, it is almost impossible to remember this by ourselves, and we need an experienced, knowledgable and loving ally to shine the light for us through the dark and confusing times.

I would describe my therapeutic style as personable, open, warm, accepting and thoughtful. I will always meet my clients where they’re at and include them while creating a personalized treatment plan.
