Depression Therapy in Austin & Round Rock

Many clients feel better with therapy alone; others benefit from a combined plan. We coordinate with prescribers when that serves your goals. You stay in charge of your choices.

You're not a lost cause. Pacing, approach, and fit matter. Trauma-informed, nervous-system-based care often unlocks movement where past attempts stalled — and usually more gently. We go slow to go fast.

Most people see early shifts within a few weeks — sleep, energy, getting through the day. Deeper relief grows as we address roots with EMDR. The pace depends on how much trauma, neglect, or betrayal you've carried.

No. We start with safety and skills. EMDR doesn't require graphic detail to work — we follow your pace.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an eight-phase, research-backed therapy that helps your brain file painful experiences so they stop popping up uninvited. Simple traumas can resolve in a few sessions; complex histories take longer. It's powerful, and it isn't magic — your therapist tailors it to you.

No. You're in full control the whole time — we'll even teach you how to signal us to stop.

You won't white-knuckle through your worst memories. Before any memory work you learn to shift into calm fast and build “resources” to turn the intensity down. That preparation phase can be long if your history is complex — and it's the part most therapists skip.

We're self-pay and provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Our nonprofit sliding scale is on the Rates page.
