Hello! My name is Jon Richard, LPC. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works in Austin, Texas. After graduating from the Masters of Arts in Counseling (MAC) program at St. Edward's University, I completed an internship at Capital Area Counseling (CAC) which is the most rewarding chapter of my adult life. At CAC, I discovered my therapeutic "voice" while counseling a diverse sample of the population (those who suffered from addiction, gender dysphoria, divorce, the harsh realities of youth and middle age). By "therapeutic voice" I mean that a person-centered approach was congruent with my easy-going personality. I felt more authentic with clients when we engaged in a loose, organic conversations (sometimes informed by cognitive behavioral therapy). Since that time, I have gravitated toward Solution Focused Brief Therapy (though I cannot market myself as an official SFBT therapist). I find SFBT to be particularly liberating because it leads with inspiring the client by asking them about their desired outcome. Once I learn what difference you would like to notice in yourself, my line of questions will focus on your previous experience with happiness/success. The more vividly you can describe your history with the desired outcome, the more possible it seems. The popular saying amongst SFBT experts like Elliott Connie, MA, LPC is "It's simple, but it's not easy". I cannot promise "easy", but I will say that the journey will be meaningful and invigorating.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like you've lost sight of who you are outside of everyone else's needs? You're not alone — and you don't have to figure it out alone either. As a licensed therapist in Texas with a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and pursuing a Doctorate in Community Care and Counseling, I specialize in working with people navigating anxiety, addiction and recovery, relationship patterns, and seasons of personal reinvention. Whether you're in the middle of a major life transition, working through the weight of past experiences, or simply trying to understand yourself better, this is a space where all of that is welcome. My approach is warm and direct. I'll meet you with genuine empathy, and I'll also gently challenge you when I think it serves your growth. Sessions aren't one-size-fits-all — we'll work together in a way that fits your pace, your personality, and your goals. My training includes Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and addiction counseling, so we have a lot of tools to draw from depending on what you need. I'm particularly passionate about creating a faith-sensitive environment where your spirituality isn't set aside — it can be part of your healing if that's meaningful to you. I also bring a personal and professional appreciation for cross-cultural experiences and the unique pressures of navigating identity, belonging, and community expectations. Having grown up as a missionary kid in East Asia and worked extensively with missionaries and international workers, I understand what it means to live between worlds. Some of the areas I most commonly support clients through include social anxiety, self-esteem, communication and boundary-setting, substance use challenges, and learning to release what's outside your control. If you're in a season of asking "Who am I, and what do I actually want?" — that's some of my favorite work. I believe healing happens in relationship, and I'm committed to walking alongside you with consistency, honesty, and care. Let's explore what's possible together.

Hi, I’m Alex! I’m a therapist who believes therapy should feel like a real conversation: a place where you can talk openly about what’s going on in your life and start making sense of it with someone who’s curious, supportive, and not here to judge you. A lot of the people I work with are thoughtful, self-aware people who feel stuck in certain areas of life....whether that’s anxiety, depression, dating / relationships, family, big life decisions, or just feeling unsure about what direction to move in next. Life can be really hard, and tough seasons often come with a lot of emotions. Therapy gives you a space to talk through what you're going through, make sense of those feelings, and start figuring out healthier ways to move forward. My style is collaborative, curious, and honest. I try to create a space where you can think out loud, explore what’s going on in your life, and leave sessions with new perspective, practical insight, and a little more relief than when you walked in. In our work together, we’ll slow things down and look at what’s actually happening beneath the surface — the thoughts, reactions, and patterns that can keep people feeling stuck. From there we can start figuring out what might need to shift so you can move forward in a way that feels more clear and grounded. If you feel like this might be a good fit, I’d be happy to connect and see how I can support you.
