Somatic Therapists in Bee Cave, TX

Are you riddled with anxiety, stuck in recurring, unhelpful patterns within your relationships? Is the grip of fear, anxiety, and depression leading you into a shame-induced spiral, hindering your ability to engage with life and connect with others? Perhaps you're grappling with uncertainty, unsure of your thoughts, needs, or the path forward. Trauma can cast a long shadow, leaving us feeling despondent, drained, and isolated. It can push us towards negative coping mechanisms, prompting us to shut the world out. In some moments, you might feel like you've lost a part of yourself, but you are not alone. You deserve to be truly seen.

I bring compassion, curiosity, and sensitive expertise to my work with adults. A mindful approach allows for attention to the present moment as the foundation for insight and change. Are you finding it difficult to prioritize or care for your mental health? Do you have a history of trauma? Encountering overwhelming life changes? Struggling with chronic pain? My broad experience can be the key to making sense of your world and regaining your equilibrium. In addition, I bring my life experience and work as a professional counselor to offer supervision to LPC interns using the Integrated Development Model and a Psychodynamic approach.

It is an honor and a privilege to journey alongside you as we work towards understanding the barriers that are preventing you from meeting your goals. I use an integrative approach of empirically based clinical techniques that are client centered. I work to meet you where you are. Together, we will dig deeper and look at the root of the problem. As we journey towards your goals, I will offer support, encouragement, and tools to help facilitate lasting change.

I specialize in working with individuals who want to boost mood & energy, overcome anxiety, manage stress and life changes, and improve relationships with friends, family, and oneself. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, difficult life changes, relationship problems, lack of balance, high stress, or problems with self-esteem, we will work to collaboratively figure out what you need in order to cope better with stress, enjoy life, stop focusing on your distress, relate better to the people who are important to you, and make healthy choices.

When people understand how trauma has changed them they can begin to change themselves. In therapy, you will discover the faulty thoughts and behaviors that persists and replace them with healthier alternatives. Therapy works best if its molded to your unique past, culture, attachment style and personality type.

Hi! I'm Ashton and I'm glad you found me. I specialize in helping couples and individuals who are finding that their relationships are a big stressor in their life. Many of the clients I see are seeking counseling to improve communication skills and increase enjoyment and connectedness in their relationships. Clients who work with me often need help working through relationship betrayals and hurts that inevitably happen in relationships, but that can leave you feeling stuck. I use therapeutic modalities that help couples and individuals move past relationship patterns that no longer serve them into more stable ways of functioning.

I welcome all those seeking a space to process, reflect, and deepen into the questions that call. I help clients through life transitions, grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. I especially enjoy working with individuals navigating childhood wounding and couples looking to increase secure attachment. Psychotherapy can offer a unique opportunity to explore your current and past issues in a collaborative, non-judgemental, and nurturing environment. I strive to offer a safe and creative space where we can work together to help you make positive movement towards living a more rich and authentic life.
