Sex Therapy in Austin, TX

The sexual part of your life is not where you want it to be and you are desperate for change. You and your partner are worried that something might be wrong with you or your relationship. You don’t know where to go for help. This sexual issue is keeping you from being happy and you and/or your partner are depressed and anxious all the time. You think about this all the time. You feel like you don’t know enough about sex and you certainly don’t know how to solve this problem, even though you have tried. No one taught you how to have a healthy and positive sexual identity, so how are you supposed to know how to fix this?

You are here because you are feeling ready for something more- something truer, and you finally realize your desire for authentic and joyful connections with yourself and others is worth pursuing.

It's time to clear away stale patterns that no longer serve you, and learn how to create and live your own unique, brave, and meaningful life. You're ready to take the first step towards change, I am here to explore with you how you can claim a life that is your own beautiful creation.

Lisa provides a warm, non-judgmental, and safe space for clients. She believes that all people have the power to grow and change and that making the choice to come to therapy is a bold and brave one.

I help individuals and couples take deeper responsibility for what they're building on their side of things, which can lead to more agency to change unsatisfying, disappointing, and difficult dynamics. Your relationship and sexual life are windows into your personal development - where you get dysregulated (withdraw or push others to conform) is where you can learn to step more inside yourself, soothe yourself, and look at the deeper, real choices you have in front of you. When you take more responsibility for yourself, your communication improves, and what you are building becomes intentional, rather than reactive.

I love to work with people that experience oppression including people of color, women, people with gender fluidity, sexuality fluidity, any spirituality, & people with physical or medical limitations in life. I am a social justice warrior and always love for my clients to enrich my life by sharing their lives with me. I use somatic work, attachment-based techniques, art interventions, mindfulness, coping skills, & distress tolerance skills. I believe strongly in attuning to the body, utilizing the body’s internal compass.. You hold all your own magic, I don't hold anyone's magic but my own. We work to dust it off & let it flow!

Brooke graduated from Mississippi State University with a degree in Human Development and Family Science. In her prior experience as a Child Life Specialist, she explored her passion for helping others by guiding patients and families as they work through physically and emotionally difficult experiences. She also spent many years as a teacher and a school counselor, where she was struck by the frequency and depth of issues her students faced regarding sexuality and sexual health. When she discovered Respark and the Sexual Health Alliance, it became immediately clear that helping clients through sex therapy was Brooke's calling.

COUPLES and TRAUMA expert. Are you willing to engage in a collaborative and dynamic approach that moves you closer to the life you want?

I believe relationships define each of us and form the foundation for our life. I work from a systemic perspective with couples, individuals, and families to create relationships that define not only who we are, but also who we desire to become.

I work with a lot of women who have suffered from Narcissistic abuse in relationships and family of origin. I also help those who are confused in their current relationships. I enjoy helping women who have autoimmune disease and cancer redefine their sexuality , relationships and desire.
