Integrative Psychotherapist & Relationship Counselor @ Head + Heart Integrative Psychotherapy

Are you ready to navigate the challenges of being human with greater resilience? As an integrative psychotherapist and relationship counselor, I specialize in supporting adults, couples, and groups to heal relationships on all levels. Including their relationships with stress, chronic illness/pain, family of origin issues, and trauma.

Combining research-informed practices with revolutionary brain + relationship science, I work from an integrative “head + heart” approach that incorporates mind, body, and spirit to help you increase resilience, release emotional baggage, and ignite holistic healing. Hence, the name of my practice – Head + Heart Integrative Psychotherapy. I believe that only by working from a holistic perspective can we truly experience deep healing and lasting change.

My practice of psychotherapy and counseling integrates relationship science (Attachment Theory, Systems Theory, Gottman Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, and Relational Life Therapy), neuroscience (Interpersonal Neurobiology, Polyvagal Theory), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, Somatic therapy, EMDR therapy, depth psychology and parts work, and trauma-informed interventions.

I am now accepting new clients for secure online therapy for Texas residents and offer free 15 min phone consults. You can learn more about me and my practice at www.headandheart-therapy.com

LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

I use depth-oriented and experiential modalities to get to the root cause of issues and facilitate change, including Existential Therapy, Relational Therapy, Mindfulness and Parts Work. I view people as a whole, recognizing the connection of mind, body, emotions and soul. The goals are to increase insight and integration of parts of yourself you may avoid or be unaware of, so that you can transform your challenges into wisdom and live a more authentic life. We’ll look at life history and habits, including how your patterns show up in your relationship with me.

I work with adults and adolescents (13+) in person and virtually. Work with adolescents may include work with their caregivers to help facilitate change in the system. I enjoy working with many topics such as: life changes, grief, anxiety, depression, spirituality, highly sensitive people, the search for purpose/identity, relationship patterns, mind-body connection and complex trauma.

All are welcome – regardless of background, beliefs, identity, appearance, etc. I am a trauma-informed practitioner. I do not assign diagnoses or label people.

Outside of work, I love nature, music, movement practices and photography.

Life’s disruptions can leave us feeling emotionally and physically stuck, pulling us out of alignment with who we truly are. When we’re operating from a place of survival, it’s difficult to experience the joy, connection, and sense of possibility that make life meaningful. My therapeutic philosophy is simple: humans were made to do more than simply survive – we were made to thrive. Healing isn’t about becoming someone new, it’s about reconnecting with the parts of oneself that have always been there beneath the weight of stress, trauma, and life’s challenges.

I blend Ivy League training with real-world clinical experience and genuine compassion to create a space where my clients feel deeply seen, understood, and supported. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Fordham University and my Master of Social Work from Columbia University. I also hold a Level II certification in Usui Reiki and have received training in Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). My work is grounded in an integrative approach that honors the connection between the mind, body, and spirit.

I have a special passion for working with high-achieving adults whose perfectionism was shaped by having to grow up too soon. In practice, this looks like supporting clients who had a parent struggling with chemical dependency or severe mental illness, experienced a high-conflict divorce, or found themselves taking on adult responsibilities as a child. These clients often may identify as the “responsible one,” the “mom” or “dad” friend, or the person everyone assumes has it all together. On the outside, their lives may look successful, but internally these clients feel exhausted, disconnected from themselves, or unsure how to slow down. Together, my clients and I explore the patterns that once helped them survive and create space for a life that’s driven by authenticity rather than obligation.

Outside of the therapy room, you’ll usually find me spending time with my fiancé and our Bernese Mountain Dog, Topanga, practicing yoga, reading, or knitting. I am now accepting new clients in person in Austin and virtually throughout Texas and offer complimentary 15 minute phone consultations.

Psychiatrist @ Integrative Psychiatry-Austin

Integrative and Holistic Child, Adolescent and Adult Psychiatry

Dr. Qazi Javed is a double board certified integrative medicine physician practicing Adult, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.

His practice seamlessly blends conventional psychiatric care with other evidence-based treatment models, including psychotherapy, orthomolecular medicine, nutrition, functional medicine, herbalism, and mind-body approaches.

Dr. Javed believes in the value of connections in creating and enhancing overall well-being. As human beings we have connections both with ourselves and with the world outside of us. Disharmony in any of these connections causes suffering, whereas harmony results in joy.

Attempting to understand this can lead us towards healing.
