Male Therapists in Austin, TX
My focus is on meeting the client from a holistic and integrative approach to therapy. There are many avenues to find motivation to achieve optimal health, as well as maintaining gains through recovery efforts. I find great passion in assisting the client to find their true sense of self (authentic self) through self-actualization, which includes self-image, self-esteem, and the ideal self. There's also a desire for positivity and purpose, healthy balanced thoughts, grounding and breathing through mindfulness, replacement of negative behaviors for positive, identifying strengths/solutions, and rewriting the story of their lives.

My ideal client is someone who feels stuck, whether due to trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, or a significant life transition. They seek a space to explore their feelings, experiences, and stories without judgment. They may have experienced childhood wounds, workplace stress, or religious trauma and want to move forward but aren’t sure how. They aim to heal from the past and develop tools to navigate the present and future better. They’re ready to do the work, even if it feels daunting, and they value the process of understanding themselves more deeply.

You’ve tried to cope, maybe even been to therapy before, but nothing seems to stick. You want clarity, emotional control, and to stop reacting so much. You want to feel more grounded, more confident, and more connected to the people around you. You’re ready to do the work. You just need the right support, effective tools, and a clear path forward. You deserve a space that’s structured but warm, direct but supportive.
My style is active, practical, and grounded in what works. Together, we’ll get to the root of what’s driving the anxiety, frustration, or self-criticism and start building lasting change that helps you move forward.

Now accepting new clients.
You're holding it together — work, relationships, responsibilities — but something feels off. Maybe you're numbing out, going through the motions, or just can't figure out why life still feels flat despite doing everything right.
A lot of the people I work with look fine from the outside. Inside, they're exhausted, disconnected, and running on fumes.

Most men I work with don't think they need therapy. They think they need their wife to stop nagging, their business to stop bleeding, or their body to stop holding all the stress they can't talk about.
I'm Patrick Boze — certified addiction recovery coach, master intuitive coach & someone who's personally walked through addiction, grief, career implosion, divorce - to come back from all of it. I work with men on the stuff that doesn't fit in a therapy office: intimacy disconnect, the gap between who they are & how they show up & performance exhaustion.
The question that I get most is, ¨How do you know so much about women?¨

As a therapist, I see myself as a guide someone who walks alongside you as you deepen self-understanding, build self-acceptance, and reconnect with the strengths you already have. My goal is to help you create a more balanced, meaningful, and joyful life. I believe many of our inner resources are already within us; therapy simply offers the space to uncover them. In a safe and supportive environment, we slow down, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most. As you gain awareness of the factors influencing your challenges, you can make intentional changes, align with your values, and move forward with greater clarity.

Therapy looks different for each person. Therapy is relational, meaning the relationship we co-create is what becomes healing. Once we have established where we are going, we will build a map to get there. As we navigate your inner world together, we will encounter mysterious and familiar characters that can give us clues and directions to reach our destination. We will uncover which strengths are supporting you and which barriers are hindering you in this process; which skills you want to cultivate to reach your goal; and what you need to let go of, heal, or change.

Being your best can be hard, especially if you feel different, life isn't working out the way you planned, or the past won't leave you alone. But you don't have to do this by yourself.

Those I work with are often quite stuck. They may even be in crisis. They struggle with anxiety, depression, upsetting or intrusive thoughts/voices, unexplainable feelings in their bodies, painful memories, questions about gender or sexuality, substance abuse, suicide and more. These experiences may interfere with friendships, parenting, romantic relationships and/or work. The symptom, no matter what particular form it takes, is a message that wants to be heard and hopes to be spoken.

If you feel like you’re expected to do it all, and carry more than your share, I may be able to help. Many of my clients feel stuck in one-sided relationships with friends, family, or coworkers, or find themselves repeating painful patterns and wondering, “Is something wrong with me?” Together, we can explore these questions and work toward deeper, more satisfying connections; with others and with yourself.

Life beckons you. Nudges and synchronicities have been grabbing your attention, pulling you towards deeper reflection. You're increasingly seeing and feeling a meaningful interconnectedness between your past, present and future, and between the inner images, intentions, attitudes and beliefs and the outer events and occurrences unfolding around you. Perhaps the land is making her presence known to you, or you feel ancestral presences guiding, protecting or asking something from you. Change is arising. A Journey is underway. The Mystery feels increasingly tangibly present. You may be transitioning through identity, community, place.

You're exhausted. Angry. You look around and feel like the world is run by people who don't care—and you wonder why more people aren't fighting back. Meanwhile, you're expected to hold down a job, maintain relationships, and function, while internally, unprocessed trauma keeps dismantling every good habit you attempt.

You might notice yourself stuck in the same relationship patterns—overthinking after conversations, pulling away when others get emotionally close, or feeling disconnected even when you're not alone. You want deeper, more secure connections, but something keeps getting in the way. In our work together, we slow down and bring curiosity to what’s happening in the moment—your thoughts, emotions, and internal blocks. Together, we uncover how these patterns developed and how earlier experiences may still be shaping how you connect, handle conflict, and navigate closeness and vulnerability today.
