Hi, I’m Angela, a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Maryland and Tennessee via telehealth. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and specialize in working with children ages 11 and up, teens, and adults. I support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, ADHD and ASD and life transitions, and I have a warm, grounded style that helps clients feel safe and understood. My background includes extensive experience with youth and families, and I integrate evidence-based modalities such as CBT, Exposure-Based approaches, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and trauma-informed care.
Life has a way of throwing "unexpected" transitions our way—whether you’re a young adult finding your footing, a couple trying to bridge a growing gap, or a fellow veteran transitioning back to civilian life. As a proud veteran of the United States Navy, I bring a unique perspective of discipline, resilience, and service to my clinical work. I hold a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Texas and have spent a decade supporting diverse populations, including first responders, civil service members, and families navigating the complexities of depression and relationship conflict. I'm here to ensure you feel seen and supported as we turn life's surprises into opportunities for growth.
I work with neurodivergent women, especially moms, who have trouble turning off their brain and connecting to their feelings. Many of my clients are people pleasing, perfectionistic, and struggle with their relationships with others. As someone with 10 years experience studying and practicing in the mental health space, I can tell you that having a sense of belonging and connectedness is the single greatest predictor of mental wellbeing.
Genuine belonging and connection to self or others may be difficult because you're carrying guilt, shame, self-blame, or the pressure to hold everything together. You may look “fine” from the outside while privately feeling overstimulated, burned out, or feeling a lack of purpose or direction.
Therapy can be a place to stop performing, slow down, and connect to yourself, so you can show up in connection and belonging with others in a genuine way.
SOME WEEKEND AND EVENING AVAILABILITY.
Hello, and thank you so much for reaching out. I am a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor and have practiced mental health counseling for 6 years with a Master of Arts degree in Counseling. I specialize in helping those with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and help learning self-care methods. People tend to see me as direct, compassionate, and insightful. Please reach out for any questions or information. I look forward to serving you. :)
Hey there! My name is Zach Meyer, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. At heart, I'm passionate about serving others, and that is exactly why I'm here. I believe that intentional, trusting relationships are foundational in our growth and healing. For nearly five years, I've had the privilege of partnering with adolescents and their families to build those relationships that foster growth and healing while navigating challenges with anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns, and life transitions. I work best with people who want to actually move forward: adults and teenagers dealing with anxiety, stress, anger, grief, identity questions, or just the weight of everyday life that keeps piling up.
Licensed Private Counselor, MS, MEd., LPC, EMDR Trained
I am a Licensed Private Counselor serving clients in Texas. I believe all experiences in our lives whether good or bad can help a person grow by equipping themselves with knowledge and skills to better understand who they are as a person. All information about a person is important and can be used as a steppingstone toward wholeness and healing. I have worked with children, teens, adults, and people with special needs.
I'm a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years of experience working with adults navigating some of life's hardest seasons — infertility, adoption, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and the kind of grief that doesn't have a clear name yet. I'm faith-integrated in my approach, which means I honor the role spirituality plays in your life without ever making it a requirement. My clients describe me as warm, easy to talk to, and refreshingly direct. I don't do one-size-fits-all therapy — every treatment plan starts with your story.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Austin, TX
Searching for therapists in Austin starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Austin has a broad mental health community, with therapists across neighborhoods like South Austin, Mueller, Zilker, and North Austin. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match what you want to address. Provider bios can also help you understand a therapist’s approach, including cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, couples therapy, or other styles of care.
In a major metro like Austin, having many options can make the search harder to narrow. Start with the practical details that shape whether a therapist is a usable match: appointment times, whether they are accepting new patients, location, and format. Some people prefer an in-person office close to work, school, or home, while others choose virtual sessions for easier scheduling. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns like Austin counseling, couples therapy in Austin, or relationship counseling.
Therapy in Austin can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer sense of what you may pay before you book. Headway makes that process easier by helping you search Austin, Texas therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed bios, see estimated costs after adding your insurance, and book directly when you are 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.
