Therapists in Bell County, TX

You deserve therapy as unique as you are. I am a master's degree (M.S.-R.L.S.) Recreational Therapist (RT) in private practice at Inclusion Therapies. I provide outpatient rehabilitation Recreational Therapy (i.e., Experiential Activity-Based) for mental and physical optimum health (both online telehealth and in-person sessions). At our Lake Travis location, the Center for Therapeutic Recreation Technology (CTRT), we provide techniques including biofeedback, Ecotherapy (Nature therapy), video gaming, and virtual reality therapy. In the greater Austin, Texas area we provide limited Community-Based sessions.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified in EEG Biofeedback. I use cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches to help my clients have more control over their emotions and accomplish their therapeutic goals. However, you are the real expert on yourself and the most important part of the counseling process is that we establish a collaborative therapeutic relationship where you feel safe, not judged and truly understood. Research shows when this type of relationship is formed, therapy is more effective and you will feel more comfortable to engage in self reflection and more likely to experience positive change.

Are you looking for a psychological/neuropsychological evaluation and/or a medication free treatment for attention, sleep, migraine, anxiety, depression, stress, PTSD, headache, or traumatic brain injury problems? Are you a struggling learner seeking ways to improve performance at school, sports or work? Do you have a history of autism spectrum, ADD/ADHD, fetal alcohol syndrome, language and communication problems, Down’s Syndrome, epilepsy, traumatic brain injury, concussion, stroke, memory difficulties, chronic illness, motor and balance coordination, developmental delay, Parkinson’s, or multiple sclerosis?

My primary goal is to help individuals looking for assistance in what can be a very confusing mental health landscape. I provide counseling services for individuals as well as consultation/training services for businesses. Very often, my clients are looking for experience, relate-ability in conjunction with a diverse background to help them navigate the challenges they are facing. GSG Counseling, is a veteran-owned and operated business providing counseling, consulting and coaching services focusing on the betterment of individuals and organizations coping with an increasingly challenging environment.

I have dedicated my life to pursuing knowledge that empowers client's to move away from both past and current sufferings. Life is challenging, please afford me the opportunity to help you navigate and heal your sufferings. Restore peace and tranquility to both your heart and your mind!

My clinical and research expertise includes the range of anxiety and stress-related disorders, especially PTSD, OCD, panic, social anxiety, and generalized anxiety. My approach is non-judgmental, compassionate, caring, and fundamentally science-based. I have extensive training and experience working with clients and their families across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, adults, and Veterans. I am also well-versed in delivering several gold-standard CBT and exposure-based treatments. I view meaningful connections and delivering evidence-based treatments as the most important factors that drive therapeutic change.

I have been successful in the past with all manner of clients through many different settings – male, female, transgender, heterosexual, LGBTQ+, in inpatient, outpatient, technician, assessment, or even consulting settings. I also really enjoy working with teens and adolescents, since early brain-based interventions help everyone succeed even more in their lifetime. I find that my personality and style seem to fit best with clients who feel they are trapped in a negative routine, have no one with which to talk, or no way out of the situation from which they suffer.

Screw it. I'll just come out and say it. Counseling has become too expensive for most people to afford. Getting superior help shouldn't be a trade-off that adds financial stress to those already struggling with other concerns. Though my wife insists that I should get paid what I'm worth, what use is my "worth" if it aids only the privileged few? The fact is that I love counseling. It brings me joy and deep fulfillment. It's fun for me and, yes, immensely rewarding. This is my payment. So, I have decided to work with anyone for any amount. Name your own fee. All I ask is that you bring an open mind and genuine hunger for change.

Do you struggle with substance use affecting every aspect of your day-to-day life? Maybe there's damage to your relationships, ability to function, job, or career. Do you feel trapped by the inability to freely choose your thoughts, emotions, or actions? Is getting through the day without self-medicating difficult or impossible? Do you wonder if it’s even possible that your experience of life could be better? Now more than ever, so many people feel anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about retaking control of their lives because they don't know how; or fear keeps blocking their best intentions. No wonder you’re so stressed.

The person I’m feel best able to work with is someone that has dealt with significant trauma or serious difficulties in their life, due to chronic health or family issues. But they are now interested in working to overcome the impact of these issues on them and their life. Since this person has made an active decision to begin the change process I want to be able to provide support and guidance to them in starting this process. I will work with them to support them in whatever direction they choose to go in their journey. I will also work with LPC-Associates to provide them with competent support, as they start their career.

I’m a bilingual therapist and clinical social worker, LMSW, under the clinical supervision of Katherine Clay, LCSWS. I have experience working with individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, attachment disruptions, past traumatic or adverse experiences, low self-esteem & grief/loss. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy with an emphasis on neurodevelopment.
