Therapists for college students near University of Texas at Austin

As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado and Texas and a Licensed Addiction Counselor in Colorado I have made the commitment to help others as they face adversity so as to develop a loving and compassionate relationship with themselves. I bring a wealth of experience and specialized training in addictions and mental health to my practice and there is one common theme I have noticed throughout my career, which is our self-talk. We are our own worst enemies, and this wreaks havoc on our self-esteem. My therapeutic approach is person centered, non-judgmental, and collaborative. I tailor my counseling to each individual client and will use several interventions in practice. I am well versed in CBT, DBT, and MI. I also have a background utilizing Positive Psychology, SFBT, and Crisis Intervention. I invite you to a different therapeutic experience where I'll meet you where you are at. By providing a safe and supportive environment, my goal is to provide a holistic and person-centered therapeutic experience where you become empowered to build resilience, achieve personal growth, and become better equipped to navigate life’s challenges with confidence.

Hi, nice to meet you! I believe that everyone can change and grow at any time in their lives. As your therapist, it is my goal to see you become a better and stronger version of yourself. It is my belief that life's experiences teach us things that may no longer be the most helpful or true today; even if they were true at the time in our past. When we don't adapt and remain flexible, we find ourselves in a web of mistaken beliefs, thinking errors and unresolved and unprocessed life problems. As a result, it becomes too hard to find our way and manage life's challenges in the here-and-now. I love to be present and help my clients find a new way and authentically experience change. I've worked with clients from many walks of life and with varied needs. My areas of expertise are in Anxiety, Depression, Women Issues, Life Transition, Christian Counseling and Self-Esteem issues. I use an Eclectic and Holistic approach to help my clients bring out the best in themselves. I like to use humor, challenging questions, and a warm open-minded approach. My favorite activities when I'm not at work are to explore and appreciate the outdoors by traveling, yoga, shopping, and spending time with my family and dog, and trying new exciting restaurants. Selecting a therapist can be difficult because it's not easy to know exactly who you are getting. "Will this person really know what she is talking about? Is she a total Quack? Will she actually be able to help me?" These questions are the norm for clients and uncertainty comes with the territory of what you are searching for. It's my hope that we will make a great team and you will become a better and stronger version of yourself.

Hi, I’m Albertina, but most call me Tina. First, I want to say thank you for being here. Taking the time to look for a therapist is a huge first step, and I’m glad you’re taking it. I am a licensed therapist dedicated to helping people navigate life’s transitions, ongoing stress, and relationship challenges without feeling completely overwhelmed. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, trauma, or the heavy weight of a major life change, I provide a space where you can finally feel heard and supported. Think of me like a "Big Sister" in your corner, someone who is going to listen, keep it real with you, and support you as you figure things out. My approach is collaborative and solution focused. Together, we’ll work on: • Strengthening your communication skills. • Developing practical coping strategies for everyday life. • Building resilience and self-awareness. • Creating lasting change that actually aligns with your personal goals and values. I believe therapy should fit your needs, not the other way around. Our sessions can be as formal or as casual as you need them to be to feel successful. My personal mission is to change the world one person at a time, and I’d love to see if you’re that person today. Reaching out can feel difficult when you’ve been carrying so much on your own, but you don’t have to navigate this alone. You don’t have to have it all together here. Just come as you are, and we will work together to help you become the person you wish to be.

You are here for a reason, and we are all in this battle together. In other words, connected. We need to work together in an effort to get each person through. Therapy is about the journey to the destination. Whether you are someone who's been dealing with depression, anxiety, personality complexes, behavioral challenges, intrusive thoughts, or irregular emotions, substance abuse, trauma, treatment can be the first step in healing. Deciding to engage in therapy is a big decision and I believe the connection to your therapist is extremely important. I strive to create a safe space that allows you to explore your current and past self. I firmly believe that everyone deserves to live wholeheartedly in the present, which is why I will work with you to identify and overcome any negative and overwhelming feelings and/or thoughts. The goal of recovery is always in our sights, we can develop effective coping skills, mindfulness and meditation practices, calmness and relaxation techniques, and resilience training using strengths perspective to achieve optimal health. It may seem too difficult to get to the other side, but you have been brave to get to this point, and I want to hear your story and help you to a better day-to-day life. My passion is counseling and I love to be with clients in their journey to find the path they want to be on so I hope you will let me get to know you and help you. Contact me and we begin your healing journey together. I can’t wait to meet you.

While working in healthcare for the past 25 years, I have experienced the value of human connection between caregiver and patient in various roles and settings. Every individual I have provided care for has their own story, a unique set of experiences that has shaped them. Understanding these individual differences helps establish individual plans of care. Upon establishing a therapeutic relationship with my clients, I strive to learn their stories and help them overcome their struggles. I aim to help clients find meaning and purpose, improve their quality of life, and achieve contentment. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I can prescribe medications and provide talk therapy to help treat psychiatric conditions such as depression, anxiety, panic attacks, mood disorders, bipolar disorders, personality disorders, PTSD, sleep disorders, and psychotic disorders. I have named my clinic after “eudaimonia,” which means ‘good spirit’ and is translated from Greek simply as ‘happiness.’ Eudaimonia is described as the condition of human flourishing, and this philosophy of finding meaning and purpose guides the care provided at Eudaimonia Psychiatric Mental Health Clinic.

You don’t have to carry it all alone anymore. I’m Betty Lopez, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, stress, self-doubt, life transitions, and grief. I specialize in supporting first-generation Latinas and adults who feel overwhelmed by cultural expectations and silent pressure to be everything for everyone. Therapy with me is a safe place to untangle old beliefs, rebuild confidence, and learn real tools for anxiety, self-esteem, and resilience. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in CBT, Mindfulness, and Narrative Therapy — always personalized to you. You don’t have to be perfect to start. You just have to show up.

College can be an exciting time—but it can also bring a lot of pressure, uncertainty, and emotional stress. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, academic stress, identity questions, or relationship challenges, you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. I'm here to offer a space where you can be real, feel heard, and start making sense of everything you're navigating. As a therapist, I work with students who feel overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, or unsure of who they are or where they're headed. My approach is down-to-earth, supportive, and focused on helping you gain clarity, confidence, and tools that actually work—without judgment or pressure. If you're looking for someone who understands the unique stressors of student life and can help you feel more grounded and in control, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

Hi, I’m Tabitha Cantu, MSW, LCSW, and I provide virtual therapy to women in university as I understand the challenges college can bring. Many of the women I work with are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, boundaries, life transitions, relationship challenges, family conflict, self-esteem concerns, and the pressures of school, work, and everyday life. As a Hispanic woman who has lived and worked in different states across the U.S., I’ve had the privilege of connecting with people from diverse backgrounds and communities. These experiences have broadened my perspective and deepened my understanding of the unique culture, communities, and challenges individuals face, and shaped the compassionate, culturally responsive approach I bring to therapy. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel heard, understood, and empowered. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, integrating evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies to help clients build coping skills, improve emotional well-being, and create meaningful change. Whether you’re adjusting to college life, managing academic stress, working through relationship concerns, or seeking greater confidence and balance, therapy can provide a space to explore challenges and develop practical tools for growth. I currently offer virtual therapy sessions throughout Texas, New Mexico, and Florida.

Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, trauma, relationship concerns, burnout, or simply feeling stuck, I meet you where you are and help you move forward at a pace that feels manageable.

The goal of our time together will be to help nurture healthy change with you in mind by learning about you as a person and your emotional needs and reducing negative feelings of anxiety, anger, guilt, and shame. Everyone at one point or another has had difficulty in their lives. Sometimes, we are aware of problems that are causing us distress, other times, we just can’t seem to figure out “what is wrong”. My aim as your potential counselor is to provide support, and guidance, and provide a nonjudgmental space for you to seek clarity using a collaborative approach.
