Austin Counseling – North Austin Therapists, Counselors, Life Coaching
Therapy. Counseling. Child Therapy. Couples Counseling. Reading those words may be enough to cause anxiety for some. Others may feel totally comfortable with these concepts. There is no reason to feel apprehension when thinking about pursuing therapy or counseling.
In some families or cultures, this is totally normal and acceptable. In others, it may feel out of the ordinary. Whatever type of background you come from — whether you are originally from Austin, Texas, or a recent transplant — you should not feel nervous in making a call for help or guidance, whether you choose in-person or online therapy.
Everyone needs guidance at some point in his or her life. Perhaps you’re going through similar to one of these hypothetical scenarios:
- A close relative has passed away and the grief is almost too much to bear
- After a recent move to a different city, your once happy-go-lucky child is having a difficult time adjusting to the new school, teachers and classmates
- You want to get married, but want to be as prepared as possible for the commitment
- Your job is unfulfilling, but no other opportunities have presented themselves
- Your spouse has been unfaithful, and you’re not sure what to do
- An activity you once used as a stress reliever has become a serious addiction
Your situation may not resemble anything from the above list, but you undoubtedly have your own challenges and goals. You don’t need to face these things alone. The professional coaches and therapists at Thriveworks North Austin Counseling have experienced great success in helping people living through the similar situations.
Each month, thousands of patients experience how a Thriveworks mental health professional can teach you how to:
- Set and achieve goals
- Work through challenging relationships and other life issues
- Seek inner strength and personal growth
While there is certainly a large percentage of already successful people who seek counseling to reach increased levels of personal growth, a lot of people trying to find a counselor or coach do so as a result of some emotional anguish. If you’re in pain, you don’t want to call office after office leaving voicemails to try to find someone who has current session openings and accepts your insurance.
If you want care and guidance immediately, call us. We can get you scheduled in an in-person or online counseling therapy appointment today. Most first-time Thriveworks North Austin Counseling clients meet with their therapist or coach within 24 hours of initiating a conversation us.
We all know that our physical health is important. We take vitamins, exercise, eat well, attend physicals, but many of us ignore our mental health.
Our mental health should also be remembered and cared for. It is just as important to make sure we maintain balance and equilibrium mentally as well.
When we aim our efforts at becoming a balanced individual, our day-to-day tasks and decisions become more clear, and as a result our lives are happier and more fulfilling — paths to progress become more visible. Understanding that we may benefit from speaking with a professional is the first step in healing and fully functioning.
Making the decision to pursue counseling can cause anxiety and fear. While making this decision can be very difficult, it can also be one of the best and most proactive steps you can take for yourself, your loved one, or your relationship.
While it may be very difficult to make the decision to pursue counseling, it may also be the best decision you can make for your wellbeing. Pursuing care at Thriveworks North Austin Counseling can benefit you as an individual, your family, and your relationships.

Major Insurance Plans Accepted
By Accepting major insurance plans, we make high-quality counseling care affordable in Austin, Texas.”
We understand: You pay top dollar every month for those insurance premiums — and those insurance plans cover mental health counseling services. Why pay hundreds of dollars out-of-pocket when you could be paying a $20 co-pay?
We find it alarming how few counseling practices are willing to serve their valued clients by accepting their insurance payers reimbursements. In contrast to the norm, we accept many (if not most) major insurance plans including Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Anthem, Aetna, Cigna, Tricare, Humana and many more.
