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

Licensed Professional Counselor @ Amy Serafin Counseling, LLC

“Online psychotherapy for Texans with difficult family dynamics and histories.”

Amy Serafin Counseling is based in Austin and provides services throughout Texas.

I am a dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor, perpetually curious about your stories and perspectives. I don’t operate with a “one size-fits all” or “cookie-cutter” approach to therapy. I’ll meet you where you are, without judgement or agenda.

As your compassionate and empathetic ally, we will explore your emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations to help you gain deeper self-awareness and insight into the relationship with yourself and others.

This work can lead to greater life balance, an ability to hold stronger boundaries, and a deeper sense of worth and lovability.

My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming, body positive, trauma sensitive, culturally sensitive (related to race, ethnicity, regional identity, religion, etc.) sex-positive, and mindful of neurodivergencies and abilities.

Counselor / Psychotherapist

I specialize in helping individuals with life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, personal and spiritual growth.

As a Heart-Centered psychotherapist, I view each individual’s journey through a lens of compassion, curiosity, and acceptance.

I love helping people cultivate a deeper, kinder, more supportive relationship with themselves and helping to shift conditioning and beliefs around this being “overindulgent” and/or “selfish.”

Using an Integrative Approach, I make room for all parts of our humanness, physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual. I work from an attachment-based, and trauma-informed foundation and draw on several therapeutic methods to assist with building tools and resources that are supportive, insight-oriented and focused on creating deep, lasting change. Primary therapeutic methods I draw from are:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Inner child/reparenting work
• Internal Parts work
• Neurobiology
• Mindfulness practices
• Somatic awareness
• Depth oriented therapy
• Existential inquiry
• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

I consider each person’s unique life experiences, worldview and nervous system while exploring and connecting with the resilience, gifts, and truth that lie within their own body and brain. The choice to seek psychotherapy can be a journey in and of itself – it takes courage and strength to ask for support. I’m continuously awed and inspired by my client’s courage, vulnerability, and resilience. Embarking on the journey to be seen, look within, let go of the past, heal and grow, with time, opens more space within our bodies and minds to connect with our true selves and experiences of connectedness, joy, peace, clarity, ease and well being.

I work with clients throughout the state of TX and currently offer in-person and virtual sessions. You can learn more about me and my practice at JenniferPaap.com

LPC-A @ Austin Family Counseling

Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate

I see therapy as an opportunity for people to untangle their thoughts, to be seen and held in their experience, and to explore what’s beneath our behavior. I strive to empower people and guide them on their path. I believe everyone has the innate ability to heal themselves, but we may need support along the way.

My counseling approach is holistic, person-centered, compassionate and trauma-informed. I’m here to help you feel seen and heard, and to reconnect you with your inner wisdom. I strive to meet you where you are at, and collaborate to utilize modalities that work for you.

Others often comment on my strengths in the therapy room as being down to earth and allowing people to feel unconditionally accepted and safe to be vulnerable. I especially enjoy working with highly sensitive people, those who feel misunderstood, grief and loss, self esteem, vulnerability, creativity, intuition, and spiritual awakening.

If any of this resonated, I’d love for you to reach out to me so we can set up an intake and see if I am a good fit for you. I look forward to connecting with you!

Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor
@ Kristin Shanahan Therapy

Counseling, the way I see it, is a process of self-discovery and exploration which requires an open mind, patience and collaboration between the counselor and client.

My name is Kristin Shanahan and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor. I support people in their desire to better understand themselves, often during times of depression, anxiety and life transitions. In a safe, nurturing environment we explore and discover your patterns of behavior and how they may hinder you from living a meaningful life.

In the therapy room, people experience me as relaxed, direct, authentic, dedicated, curious and open to laughter. It is my belief that with compassion and courage, we can experience a greater sense of well-being.
