Holistic Therapy Therapists in Austin

Welcome! I'm Shannon, a therapist who works with women struggling with anxiety, trauma symptoms, and relationship challenges. I tend to be the therapist I personally would want to work with: real, genuine, non-judgmental, and with a touch of humor. I offer individual sessions for folks who want a little bit more than traditional talk therapy. This means incorporating some somatic and evidence based practices (called IFS and EMDR) that help you understand and reprocess your symptoms as opposed to just talking about them on a surface level. Whether you are brand new to therapy or have done it for years, I'd love to chat about your current goals.

I am a board-certified Nurse Practitioner specializing in medication management and integrative mental health care. My approach blends traditional psychiatry with metabolic psychiatry and functional medicine to address the root causes of anxiety, depression, burnout, and mood instability. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, chronic stress, brain fog, and mood changes — especially during life transitions such as perimenopause, menopause, and periods of high stress. Rather than focusing only on symptom control, I explore how nutrition, metabolism, hormones, sleep, nervous system regulation, and lifestyle factors influence mental well-being. My goal is to provide compassionate, personalized care that helps you feel more balanced, resilient, and like yourself again.

I'm Jasmine, a board certified clinical psychologist who helps kids, teens, adults, and families untangle overwhelming emotions and find practical ways forward. I specialize in eating disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, and I love supporting helpers - healthcare workers, therapists, children of immigrants - people who often carry more than they share. I grew up in Texas, trained in New York, and love visiting Rio de Janeiro. The Texas in me brings genuine warmth, the New York in me brings straightforward clarity, and the Rio part of me carries playful, free-spirited energy. This balance helps clients feel cared for while also being gently challenged, with space for both serious work and moments of lightness along the way. Background: Before moving to Austin and starting my own private practice, I worked for 8 years in an academic medical center in inpatient and partial hospitalization for pediatric eating disorders in Plano, TX. Prior to that, I did a postdoctoral fellowship at the Dallas VA, focused on Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy. My internship was at the University of Rochester Medical Center, working with children and adolescents. I earned my doctorate from St. John’s University and while in New York, I did externships at Bellevue Hospital and Zucker Hillside Hospital.

You may look like you’ve got it together, but inside you’re carrying too much. I work with adults, couples, and families who feel stuck in painful patterns, weighed down by past experiences, or unsure how to move forward. I offer trauma-informed therapy in a calm, supportive space where you don’t have to explain or minimize what you’ve been through. Together, we slow things down, help your nervous system settle, and make sense of your emotions so meaningful change can happen. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in research, while always honoring your lived experience. I have extensive experience supporting clients with trauma, family and relationship challenges, and parenting stress. Many of my clients are caregivers, parents, or people who are used to being the reliable one and are realizing they need support too. I believe healing happens in safe, authentic relationships, and I’m honored to walk alongside clients as they build resilience, clarity, and a stronger sense of self. I offer in-person therapy in Northwest Austin and Round Rock, as well as online therapy across Texas.
