What Embrace Therapy is all about.

A little about us…

Embrace Therapy Austin was created in an effort to provide the Austin community with a space for folks from diverse backgrounds, and unique experiences, who have experienced not feeling seen by previous therapists.

Clients who work with us…

Clients who work with us can expect a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free space. Embrace Therapy is a gender-affirming and LGBTQ+ friendly practice.

We help clients by seeing their experiences through the lens of feminist theory. Feminist theory in therapy means that we approach problems clients may face as being affected by the systematic oppression women, people of color, and the LGBTQ+ community face. By acknowledging the power our society and culture have over how we view ourselves, we can begin to dismantle those messages and beliefs. What is left afterward is the true image of who we are.

As Sex-Positive therapists, we view sex and sexuality as fluid and as unique to an individual as their fingerprint. We all deserve to experience pleasure, intimacy, and sex. We encourage clients to explore ways of asking for what they want from their partner(s) and how to get the pleasure they want.

As a Health At Every Size practice, we view eating disorder treatment and treatment of disordered eating and body dysmorphia through the belief that all bodies are worthy, and that food is an integral part of our lived experience and we deserve to have a compassionate, healthy relationship with it.
