I’m dedicated to helping high-achieving, overwhelmed individuals find balance, peace, and a deeper sense of self as they interrupt the High-Functioning High-Achiever Loop they're in. If you’re constantly striving to be “perfect,” struggling to say no, or feeling anxious and burnt out from trying to do it all, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to keep carrying it on your own. In my practice, I support people who are navigating the pressures of perfectionism, difficulty setting boundaries, and the chronic stress and anxiety that often come with it. These patterns often go deeper. Sometimes the pressure to achieve, please, or over-function is rooted in early emotional wounds, especially those tied to childhood experiences or mother-daughter dynamics. You may find yourself stuck, anxious, overly self-critical, repeating painful cycles, or simply longing for a life that feels more aligned and emotionally fulfilling. Rachel Cooper, MS, LPC Associate Supervised by Amber Quaranta-Leech, PhD, LPC-S

Through my own experiences with adversity and life transitions, I understand that setting healthy boundaries can bring both empowerment and grief as we let go of patterns, relationships, and versions of ourselves that no longer serve us. Kammille Harvey, LPC, is a Licensed Professional Counselor who enjoys working with young to middle-aged adults navigating relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, boundary-setting concerns, and women's issues. She is particularly passionate about helping clients understand relationship patterns, establish healthy boundaries, and cultivate stronger, more authentic connections with themselves and others.

Depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, and relationship concerns are the areas in which I specialize. All of your thoughts, feelings, and experiences are considered and held as significant and worthy of exploration and understanding. Change is possible by understanding first what is causing the current difficulty and then within a collaborative, insight oriented and warm relationship that I can provide, work to alter that difficulty. Whether this is the first time seeking help or returning to work on other concerns, my approach is to meet you where you are and with your specific needs.

**ONLINE SCHEDULING, WEEKENDS EVENINGS AVAILABLE** Being nervous about starting therapy is natural, which is why Polly works with each client to establish a relationship of honesty and openness so clients feel comfortable sharing their feelings. There is no magic wand in life, but you don’t have to face challenges on your own. Therapy is a journey. Polly approaches each session as a time to learn about you—what motivates you and what ails you. She understands the importance of each individual’s culture. She works with each client to learn about their heritage, traditions, and lifestyle so she can fully understand you as a person. Together you and Polly will determine the best possible solutions to address your individual needs. A licensed clinical social worker with more than 20 years of experience, Polly works with adults, teens, and children dealing with depression, anxiety, developmental disabilities, adoption issues, and abuse. She also has experience working with veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression, substance abuse, and marital and family issues. She uses Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing approaches, depending on the client’s needs, to address the client as a whole. Polly received her Master’s in Social Work from Southwest Texas State University. Mental health struggles are a common and normal part of life. They don’t define a person; Polly advocates for this. People are not their diagnosis, they just need their needs met and addressed logically. There is a solution for everyone. You don’t need to struggle on your own. Get started to feeling better today.

Many people come to me after years of trying to think their way out of pain. They understand where their struggles come from, yet they still feel anxious, numb, stuck in old relationship patterns, or disconnected from themselves. That’s because trauma isn’t only stored in our thoughts. It lives in the nervous system and in the protective parts of us that learned to survive. As a trauma therapist in Austin, Texas, I specialize in complex trauma, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), dissociative challenges, and attachment wounds. My approach is somatic, relational, and deeply collaborative. I’m a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and Brainspotting to help clients process what happened at the level of both body and mind. We’ll get curious about the parts of you that carry pain and the parts that work hard to protect you, while building your capacity to feel safe in your own body. Healing doesn’t happen on a timeline, and it doesn’t happen through force. We’ll start by building stability and trust, then move deeper at a pace your system can handle. You remain the expert on your own life, and you’ll always have a say in what feels right in our work together. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)-S), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Supervisor (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT)-S), and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), and I work with clients of all ages, as well as couples and families. My own healing journey and my experience as a mother shape the warmth and honesty I bring to every session. You don’t have to keep carrying this alone.

Do you find yourself constantly taking care of everyone else’s needs while losing touch with your own? Do you worry more about how others feel than how you feel? Do you find yourself repeating relationship patterns you understand intellectually, but still struggle to change? Many of the people I work with have spent years adapting to the needs, emotions, or expectations of others. They may be the person who holds everything together, avoids conflict, works hard to keep relationships stable, or questions whether their own needs are valid. Over time, this can lead to feeling exhausted, disconnected, anxious, or unsure of who they are outside of the roles they have carried. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas, and I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating relational trauma, betrayal, family conflict, estrangement, emotionally difficult relationships, attachment wounds, anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions. Some clients are healing after betrayal or rebuilding trust in a relationship. Others are working through the impact of emotionally immature family dynamics, childhood emotional neglect, or patterns that continue to affect their relationships today. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and relational. I believe that many of the struggles people experience today are connected to patterns that developed for a reason. The ways you respond, protect yourself, or relate to others often made sense based on what you experienced, even if those patterns are no longer helping you create the life and relationships you want. Together, we explore the patterns beneath the problem rather than focusing only on symptoms. We look at how your experiences have shaped your relationship with yourself and others, how you respond to conflict and closeness, and what gets in the way of feeling secure, connected, and fully yourself. I draw from evidence-based approaches, including attachment-focused therapy, Gottman Method couples therapy, cognitive processing therapy, and other trauma-focused approaches. Therapy is tailored to your individual experiences, goals, and needs, combining research-supported methods with a deeper understanding of your story. Therapy with me is a place where your experiences get to be understood, often in a way they may not have been before. You do not have to justify your needs, minimize your pain, or carry everything alone. Together, we can work toward understanding yourself more deeply, creating healthier patterns, and building relationships that feel more mutual, secure, and aligned with who you want to become.
