When I arrived, he reassured me of any concerns I had and explained how my treatment would go. We started with X-rays, he took a day to review, and then at my next visit he walked me through my treatment plan and we immediately got started. My longest visits were the first two and now I'm in and out in less than 5 minutes. Pain is a horrible thing. It's really hard when people don't listen to you or believe you. You start to question your own sanity. The issues I've been experiencing have been happening for so many years, I can't even count. I've truly noticed an improvement since I've been seeing Dr Schroder and I plan to stick with my treatment plan. I know I'm in good hands and I hope you'll consider him if you're looking for a chiropractor. He's simply fantastic and you can tell he truly cares!

He takes the time to understand what's going on and approaches each visit thoughtfully, making sure I feel comfortable throughout the process. You can tell he truly cares about his patients and focuses on long-term results--not just quick fixes. I always leave feeling better and more informed. So grateful I found him--highly recommend if you're looking for a chiropractor who really listens and takes the time to get it right!

Excellent Couples' Counselor!…read more Rich Armington is a fantastic resource for the Austin community. As a couple, we found our sessions with him to be both productive and illuminating. Rather than handing us solutions for our problems, he equipped us with tools to find our own solutions. With his warm, wise, and respectful demeanor, Rich creates an easy, safe space to work in. This feeling of safety precludes defensive posturing, and, combined with his systematic, unwavering methods, enabled us to work deeply, and quickly. His listening skills are exceptional: he notices every subtle shrug of resistance or tiny tense note and gently ferrets it out for investigation, thereby grounding our conversations with the clarity of the present moment. Perhaps more importantly, Rich guided us to tune in to these subtleties ourselves and become better listeners and communicators. We are both grateful to Rich: he helped us to strengthen the communication and understanding in our marriage, arming us with effective tools with which to tackle the ongoing challenges of how to integrate our individual needs into a mutually satisfying sense of "us."

I have worked with Rich off-and-on for about ten years on several issues - marriage counseling - a…read morevery difficult work relationship - and the emotional after-effects of a life-changing illness. Through each of these challenges, and with Rich's insight and guidance, I have found clarity and peace, come to know myself deeply, reached comfortable solutions, and recognized my inner strength. Rich provides a very safe and comfortable environment; he is compassionate, patient and strong; he listens very carefully and keeps one on task. I moved from Austin and am not currently working with Rich, which I miss very much. At the same time, I am able to remember and draw from the sessions we've had and from the lessons and tools I have learned from him. I am very grateful to Rich, and I highly recommend him.

BEWARE: please read this whole review before going to them!…read more DISCLAIMER for Current Patients: If you need to login to your patient portal, here is the link: https://pp-wfe-102.advancedmd.com/153661/account/logon It is extremely hard to locate the patient portal online, it's nowhere on the website, and does not pop up in searches, so make sure you save that link or bookmark the tab. If you don't, you won't be able to get to it and see your account, billing, balance etc. Here's my experience: I went to Anew Era for 5 years. My psychiatrist was knowledgeable, understanding, and helpful. I was manually paying my standard balance each month. And the office people were great. But this place changed in early 2025. Suddenly, my psychiatrist of 4 years was gone, I started getting auto-billed really high amounts I'd never seen before with no explanation, and I was matched with a new psychiatrist I did not choose for myself. I was done when my balance showed $100 right before an appointment--an amount I've seen countless times before. I didn't pay it ahead of time, so they cancelled my appointment, which is completely understandable. But a few days later, I went to pay that $100 balance, and it had jumped to $400. Mind you, I hadn't had an appointment in those few days, the office told me there would be no late fees applied, and my medication was not refilled. How does my typical $100 balance suddenly soar to $400. I have never been charged that much before, so I checked my payment history and it was wiped clean. Why could I not see my previous statements all of the sudden, when I was able to for the past 4 years? I was going to call the office about it, but remembered when I called and asked about odd amounts they auto-charged me for in the past, they were rude, defensive, and wouldn't explain those strange charges. Keep in mind that for four years, my insurance did not change and I made consistent manual payments without a single issue. So recap: out of nowhere, my psychiatrist was gone without a word. They start auto-charging my card without my consent and prior notification--and the amounts are astronomically higher than anything I've paid over the last few years. On another note, the office people who answer the phones are just so awful to deal with. They're always angry, dismissive, not helpful, and rude to the patients for no reason. (I can only assume they're fed up because their phones are ringing off the hook due to all of their company's mistakes, billing discrepancies, sketchy practices, and lack of communication with patients) But office people, do not take your frustrations out on the patients, look at the bigger picture: the company you work for is causing all of these issues that you then have to deal with over the phones. I can only hope most of them are getting new jobs at a reliable company or health group, because they are not having a good time at Anew Era. Don't go here :)

Excellent collection of mental health professionals. Depression, social anxiety, spousal abuse,…read moreobsessive procrastination, anorexia, grief, et al. They provide tools to help clients grapple with all of these issues. If I could offer more than five stars, I would attach as many as possible to this review. Outside of their counseling expertise, they have great administrative staff. Many payment options available. I needed receipts to submit last minute before my FSA money was deleted. They mailed them the day I called and I got them the very next day!!! No charge to me for the postage, which was greatly appreciated. Seriously. A lot of other offices would have been like, "You can drive over and pick them up at our front desk."

This is just regarding Diana Schaefer. The facility has been beyond kind and helpful, and I hope to…read morefind a therapist here that fits my needs. -- Years and years ago, a therapist told me I was a whore for kissing a boy on the first date. I thought that would forever be my worst story of therapy gone wrong, of a therapist superimposing their own beliefs and issues on me. Diana hit a new record. She "fired" me as a client and pulled wildly unethical moves before doing so. I wholly believe that there is a time to part ways when therapy isn't serving the client or when a client is rejecting help from the therapist to everyone's detriment. Therapists have just as much of a right to end the relationship as clients do. The reason I'm writing this has nothing to do with the farewell and everything to do with how it was handled. I have an eating disorder. I made it clear from the start that I didn't care that she didn't specialize in them. I'd had enough therapy around eating disorders and wanted to take a new approach. I also told her in our first session that if she thought it wasn't a fit to have open communication because I would be doing so. I've played the "suffer through a relationship that isn't working" game too much at this point in therapy. We had weekly sessions for months. I thought many of them were helping. But then I told her how many calories I consumed during the week. That was undeniably the point where she flipped. We talked for a month or so more. She started talking to my dietician more. That seemed logical to me. And then she started telling my therapist I needed to go to treatment. Asking her why she hadn't suggested it or wasn't pushing it on me. (She has.) I am in no way a high risk anorexic. Perhaps treatment wouldn't hurt but my life right now prioritizes above something that isn't necessary. She pressured me and I said no, several times. And then the day came where she let me tell her about my life before interrupting and starting the conversation of removal of services provided. Like I mentioned, that alone wasn't the issue. What WAS the issue was that she had also called my dietician and tried to pressure her into leaving me. To the point of my dietician's discomfort and recognition that abandonment on that level would be detrimental and more harmful that good. (How Diana didn't see that, I don't know.) She gave me an ULTIMATUM of treatment or no therapy. She told me I COULD NOT go to therapy ANYWHERE until I dealt with my eating disorder. (And no, this wasn't just in reference to being cognitively unable to proceed with EMDR.) She wouldn't give me referrals. She made fun of the shirt I was wearing that day that said, "Mental health is health," because I wouldn't go to treatment. I was in utter shock during that last session so I didn't really have responses beyond saying no to treatment and that I understood where she was coming from. But none of those things are okay and I should have said that to her then. I regret that. Fuck that. I deserve therapy. Everyone does. She clearly spooked when eating disorder stuff came up, was not educated on it, and chose to bully and threaten me instead of just saying, "I'm not qualified in this topic and don't feel comfortable proceeding." Period. Period. Period. If you don't fit in her little box of qualifications, stay away. And if you pick up any of her own anxieties, leave. It's not worth wasting your time.

From our initial 90 minute consultation, which was so generous, I connected with him instantly. He's not just woo woo but also very smart and methodical. We uncovered in the consultation alone a huge blocker for me in my career - basically there were two paths I couldn't decide between and he helped me to see that there was good parts of both that I wants to integrate. I'd been struggling with fatigue for weeks and this seemed to be an unlock in getting me excited about my future again and moving forward! In the hypnosis session, he said from the start we'd keep going until it was over, even if it took longer than 4 hours. We actually went a full 6 hours - I went through some deep traumatic stuff which I think neither of us expected to show up. I'd been dealing with all kinds of digestive issues for 3 years and I think that was what we processed largely. I got what I was looking for, and I truly believe there's no way out but through. Kudos to Alex for encouraging me to keep going with the difficulty even though we could have tried to glossed over it. We did eventually get to the part where I was speaking directly to some sort of true self/inner knowing at the end, which was fascinating. I'm grateful for my session with Alex and recommend him to my friends!
