Hi, I am Dr. Maricon Revis, a licensed psychologist in the State of Texas. I am glad to meet you and pleased that you are choosing your journey towards healing. The greatest joy of being a therapist is truly making a positive impact on the lives of individuals. I am committed to inspiring clients to make healthier choices, create greater happiness, and live a satisfying life. My clinical practice is rooted in a strength-based perspective, and my therapeutic style includes warmth, openness, and collaboration. Common treatments I provide include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Psychotherapy. With comprehensive background experience in counseling and social services exceeding 20 years, I have developed expertise in trauma-informed care, anxiety, depression, grief, and military issues. My focus is empowering clients to use their strengths and gain insight using different tools, solutions, and coping skills.
I am passionate about helping people feel seen, heard, and supported as they navigate life's challenges and discover their inner strengths. My approach is to create an authentic and individual relationship with my clients so they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and hopes without judgment.
I have a very mellow, approachable style, and my main goal is to help my patients reach their goals. Many of the people I work with feel like they haven’t been truly heard before, or that medication was presented as their only option. I take time to listen and make sure you feel comfortable, understood, and involved in your care. I also grew up in an immigrant household, where mental health wasn’t always talked about or seen as an option, and that experience really shaped how I work with my patients today.
Career counseling focused on mental health in the workplace is my specialization. I help college students, job seekers and working professionals who are feeling burned out, anxious, or overwhelmed reconnect with their strengths and bring their best selves to work or school. Many of my clients juggle high expectations, relationship challenges at work or college, and feel stuck, frustrated, or held back by negative self-talk. Together, we work on recognizing these patterns, challenging self-imposed limitations, and building healthier, more confident ways of thinking.

I am a friendly goal-oriented therapist who believes strongly in positive self-reinforcement. I have a Master's degree from La Tech University with a background in private practice for over 20 years.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in Austin, TX
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Austin starts with looking for identity-affirming care. The right therapist should have experience supporting LGBTQIA+ people and concerns such as identity exploration, coming out, family or relationship stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. As you compare options, look for therapists who mention affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or LGBTQIA+-affirming counseling in their profiles. These details can help you find support that matches your needs beyond basic clinical training.
Austin has many therapists across areas like Downtown, East Austin, South Congress, and North Austin, but more options can make it harder to narrow your search. Virtual appointments can also expand access to LGBTQIA+ therapy in Austin, especially if you want a therapist with specific experience in inclusive counseling, LGBTQIA+ couples counseling, or gender-affirming support. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for details about their approach, availability, identity-affirming experience, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Austin can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find Austin therapists who are accepting new patients and match your preferences. You can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific plan, see estimated costs upfront, review therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
