I believe that without experiencing the full range of human emotions, we do not fully engage in our lives. Therefore, you can expect me to validate your experience, yet also challenge you to allow in all thoughts and feelings, rather than spending your time and energy trying to "get rid" of the painful stuff. Rather, let's see if we can work with it to allow it to be there AND at the same time, not allow it to hold you back from doing your best and being your best. I provide a quiet, safe space in which to explore patterns of responses to discomfort and find new, more productive and life-enhancing responses to that very same discomfort. I consistently push myself as well, to learn about new evidence-based theories, consult with other experienced clinicians in the community, and to live out my professional values. I began pursuing my career as a therapist by obtaining my Master’s in Social Work (MSW) degree from the University of Texas at Austin. After graduating, I worked as a counselor at an Employee Assistance Program helping people solve problems that were interfering with their work and home lives. Soon after, I was fortunate enough to have an opportunity to pursue my dream of working in the field of Eating Disorders treatment and began my role as a therapist at Hill Country Recovery Center, where I ran the Intensive Outpatient Program and managed a caseload of individual clients. I then transitioned to my role as a Primary Therapist at Eating Recovery Center of Austin where I worked with clients struggling with severe eating disorders doing individual, family and group work. I have received special training in Perinatal (pregnancy and postpartum) Mood and Anxiety Disorders and love working with soon to be moms and new moms struggling with their transition to a new role and new responsibilities. You are not alone if you feel anxious, depressed, exhausted, inadequate and confused about how to fit a new baby into your existing life and sense of self. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Texas (License No. 53056).

I am a bilingual therapist (fluent in English, Cantonese and Mandarin) licensed in both Texas and New Jersey. I work with those who are experiencing distress and/or emotional challenges in their lives, either due to a specific life change, incident or ongoing life issues. Today, you have chosen to be here and taken the first step to explore therapy. For some of you, this may feel a bit scary because you are not sure what this is about and how it works. Life is rarely without challenges. There are times when we need to seek out the right therapist who is dedicated to assist us in challenging moments. Your story matters, and I am here to listen to your story.

I especially enjoy working with clients who are building their families through adoption and conception. I love helping parents decrease stress and anxiety by honing their instincts, increasing confidence, and having healthy boundaries.

Hi, I am Dr. Julie Hsu. I am a licensed psychologist practicing in Austin, Texas. Currently, I am providing therapy services exclusively through video/telehealth. My specialities include ADHD, anxiety, and perfectionism. I enjoy supporting clients through transitions, including new parenthood. I also have a passion for working with women of color/global majority, Asian-Americans, and children of immigrants. My experience working with clients has affirmed that each person has inherent strengths and wisdom. I believe people are naturally oriented towards connection and growth. They just need the right space to affirm who they really are and imagine new possibilities. It’s an honor to be a part of the journey. My practice is culturally affirming and responsive. I am committed to ongoing anti-oppression learning, growth, and humility. Therapy with me is validating, grounding, and insightful. My vibe is gentle and nurturing, which I believe arises naturally from my respect and care for my clients. I’m down-to-earth and approachable. I use evidence-based practices and teach practical skills to empower clients. I believe change happens when we develop the ability to listen to what we need in the moment, with compassion. From there, awareness begins to blossom, as we start feeling more connected to ourselves and others. My specialties include: transition to parenthood, including postpartum anxiety; positive parenting support; wellness, balance, and self-compassion; work stress and burnout; anxiety, perfectionism, and overachievers; Asian-Americans, women of color/global majority, and children of immigrants; skills-based therapy for adult ADHD; and young adults and quarter-life crisis. I accept Lyra Healthcare and Modern Healthcare EAP. I am a Psypact provider and can provide telehealth across several different states, including: Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, District of Columbia/DC, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Virginia.

The focus for my practice is reproductive counseling. I help clients facing struggles with infertility, pregnancy and infant loss, and perinatal mood disorders. I work to form a strong relationship with clients to help them understand the many transitions and some loss that accompanies new parenthood or expanding families. I also see clients who have moved on from having children and are now facing the changes that come with peri-menopausal syndrome and menopause. My approach to this work is through a relational approach with some cognitive behavioral and mindfulness strategies. Areas of expertise include: *perinatal mood and anxiety disorders *birth trauma *grief and loss *relationship struggles *anxiety *depression *infertility What is a PMH-C? A perinatal mental health clinician with extensive and advanced training in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders. Elaine earned this certification based upon her 7 years of clinical work experience and training in the field of perinatal mental health and after successfully completed a rigorous certification exam.

Creating a friendly, down-to-earth, and no-nonsense space for healing, I believe that authenticity is an essential component to the therapeutic relationship. I take a holistic approach to counseling and believe that true health and wellness requires balance of mind, body, and spirit. I am passionate about meeting clients where they are, incorporating existential and cognitive-behavioral techniques as well as expressive arts modalities into my practice. Life can be challenging. We all need a safe space to sort through the ups and downs. Let's sit down together, talk it out, have a laugh (if you're up for it), and get you moving in a direction that feels right.
