-Personal Insight

-Work-life balance
-Communication skills
-Flexibility and freedom from perfectionism & people pleasing

People come to counseling and coaching for many reasons but some of the issues that my clients have addressed with me include:
-Eating Disorders, emotional eating and disordered eating

-Weight management
-Over-exercise, exercise addiction, and exercise aversion
-Anxiety related eating concerns, e.g. OCD, rigid eating, rule-based eating, fear of food

Ten years from now, you might miss this chapter more than you know.

The people around you. The small routines. Even the things that feel uncertain.

Give yourself a second to notice the good that’s already here. 🤍

The holidays can be beautiful.. and overwhelming.

If you need to step back, slow down, or protect your peace this season - it’s okay.
You don’t have to say yes to everything, keep up with everyone, or push yourself past your limits to make this time meaningful.

Resting is not being difficult.
Saying no is not being ungrateful.
Pausing is allowed.
Your wellbeing matters just as much as the traditions, expectations, and to-dos.

Give yourself permission to move through this season gently.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) can quietly creep in as the days get shorter.

If you’ve been feeling more tired, low, unmotivated, or disconnected lately.. you’re not imagining it. SAD is a real, seasonal shift in mood that affects many people each year.

You might notice changes in sleep, energy, appetite, or interest in things you normally enjoy. None of this means you’re “failing” - it means your brain and body are responding to less light, colder weather, and disrupted rhythms.

You deserve support, warmth, and care this season. You don’t have to push through it alone.

A gentle reminder that your softness is a strength, your feelings are valid, and your sensitivity is a superpower, not something to shrink.

When you’re a therapist but also… a human. 🫣

A helpful reminder for anxious minds: our brains are wired to overestimate danger and underestimate our ability to cope.

When anxiety paints a catastrophic picture, pause and check the facts. More often than not, the reality is far gentler than the story fear tells.

If you’ve been affected by the government shutdown or recent SNAP benefit disruptions, you’re not alone. We’ve gathered a list of local and national resources offering food assistance, financial support, and community aid.

Everyone deserves stability and support - especially in times like these.

Healing rarely looks like a straight line. It’s the quiet choices, the tiny pauses, and the gentle self-compassion that add up. 🌱

Save this as a reminder that you’re doing better than you think.

Because every great therapy team deserves a sitcom-style intro 💫

Meet our clinicians — dedicated, compassionate, and maybe just a little too good at smiling for the camera.

A haunted house, but it’s your therapist saying, “Notice what’s coming up for you right now.” 👻

Facing your fears doesn’t always mean ghosts and goblins-sometimes it’s sitting with hard feelings, setting boundaries, or speaking your truth.

From all of us at Discovery Counseling Austin, wishing you a spooky (and self-aware) Halloween!

As we “fall back” next weekend, consider it an invitation to slow down too. 🍂

The shorter days and longer nights can shift our energy and mood - and that’s okay. You don’t have to keep the same pace all year. This season is about grounding, rest, and small moments of warmth.

Take time to check in with yourself. How can you give yourself a little more grace, light, or rest this week?
