Welcome to a Journey of Healing and Growth
Are you seeking a path to inner peace and lasting resilience? Hi, I'm Kim, and for nearly two decades, I've guided individuals just like you toward a stronger, more authentic self. In a world saturated with external pressures and the constant search for validation in others or technology, my deepest passion is to help you cultivate a compassionate and unwavering friendship with yourself – an inner sanctuary you can always rely on. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, carrying the weight of depression, or navigating the lasting impact of trauma. My goal is to create a safe,
non-judgmental space where you can explore these challenges and discover your innate capacity for healing and finding peace.
I’ve spent my career supporting people through some of their hardest moments—crisis units, inpatient care, disability rehabilitation, and corporate healthcare. Being a foster parent gave me a firsthand view of how families cope under intense strain. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, I specialize in the mental‐health impact of chronic illness, disability, and identity shifts. I believe people are more resilient than they realize, and the right support helps them access it.
Hi, I’m Elizabeth Gyang, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Master of Science in Nursing. I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a supportive and judgment-free environment.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, eating disorders, mood disorders, and other mental health challenges. My approach is personalized, collaborative, and focused on helping each individual achieve emotional wellness and improved quality of life.
I believe every person deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to empower you and your family with the tools and guidance needed to navigate life's challenges and build lasting resilience.
I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing and wellness—one step at a time.
Seeking help can be the first step to acquire greater understanding and insight into our lives and relationships.
Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, or major life transitions begin affecting every part of your life. You may be exhausted from trying to hold everything together, questioning your next step, or feeling like you've lost touch with the person you want to be. Change doesn't happen overnight, but it can begin with one conversation. I partner with individuals experiencing depression, grief and loss, relationship issues, identity issues, and trauma so they can rebuild confidence, strengthen their relationships, and create a life that feels more balanced, connected, and fulfilling. Working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families, I strive to create a compassionate, collaborative environment where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to grow.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified School Counselor with experience supporting individuals in both clinical and educational settings. I earned my Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies with a minor in Bilingual Education and my Masters of Education in Counseling from The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.
I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care. As a Doctor of Nursing Practice and Board-Certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I approach every patient with respect, empathy, and a focus on safety. My clinical decisions are grounded in current research, best practices, and your individual needs.
I believe in a collaborative and transparent treatment process. I value open communication. I want you to feel comfortable discussing your symptoms, concerns, and goals so we can work together to create a plan that truly supports your mental health.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Austin, TX
Finding family therapists in Austin starts with identifying what your family wants help navigating. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, family of origin counseling, and communication patterns across generations. A family therapist is trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare family counselors in Austin, read each therapist’s profile for training, listed specialties, and experience with family dynamics that match your needs.
Austin has many therapy options, from central neighborhoods to South Austin, North Austin, and nearby areas, which can make it harder to narrow the list. Consider whether in-person sessions near home, school, or work fit best, or whether virtual appointments make it easier for more family members to attend. Family therapy may include the full family, smaller groups, or individual members at different points. Reviewing a therapist’s bio can help you understand their session structure, approach, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before booking.
Austin Texas therapy can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway lets you search for family therapists who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person options, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
