Therapy in Austin, TX
Individual Therapy
Beginning therapy is a meaningful step, and often a vulnerable one. At Moving Parts Psychotherapy, we offer trauma-informed therapy in South Austin in a space that is warm, nonjudgmental, and deeply respectful of your story. Many people come to therapy carrying experiences they’ve never shared out loud, unsure of where to begin or how they’ll be received.
Our role is to meet you with care and curiosity, offering a supportive environment where you can explore what you’ve been holding and begin to feel some relief. Therapy here is collaborative and personalized. We move at your pace, honoring your strengths while integrating therapeutic tools and approaches that align with your goals.
A collaborative, trauma-informed approach
Individual therapy at Moving Parts Psychotherapy is grounded in interpersonal neurobiology – an understanding of how experiences, especially distressing or overwhelming ones, are stored in both the brain and the body.
Sometimes these stored experiences show up in ways we don’t consciously connect to the past: a racing heart, sudden shutdown, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, or difficulty in relationships. These responses are not personal failures; they are your nervous system doing its best to protect you.
In therapy, we gently bring awareness to these patterns, helping your system feel safer and more regulated over time. Many clients begin to feel lighter simply by naming what they’ve been carrying and having it received with care.
Benefits of Individual Therapy
Individual therapy can be helpful for a wide range of concerns, including:
Anxiety and stress
Depression or low mood
Trauma and unresolved past experiences
Relationship difficulties
Life transitions or identity exploration
Emotional overwhelm or feeling stuck
You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting. Therapy is a place to slow down, reflect, and discover what healing might look like for you.
