Natalia is amazing. She helped me deal with my over eating in a compassionate, caring way that…read morenever made me feel judged. She also helped me to connect my over eating with other issues I'd been having in my life, and after only a few sessions I'm feeling much more confident and comfortable with my eating. She helped me realize the damage diet culture does (and even "nutrition-conscious" culture) and I've been able to make peace with food. I no longer obsess about what to eat, if it's right or wrong, or how many calories or macro-nutrients I'm consuming. She really helped me focus on how I was feeling - whether I was hungry, did I actually enjoy the food I was eating - and that really shifted my focus to my body and not to what the world around me thinks or wants. I can't say enough great things about Natalia. If you are an emotional eater, an over eater, or an obsessive calorie counter, she can help you regain control and actually enjoy food again.

About three years ago, I was desperately seeking help for a close personal friend suffering from…read morethe physical decline brought about by years of substance abuse. I turned to Natalia-- someone familiar to me for years as a fellow Yelp Austin reviewer--for guidance. The essence of my quest was to secure counseling resources for the person I cared deeply about. Although substance abuse is not her specialty, Natalia quickly reached out to me to provide several qualified counselors she trusted that might be able to help my friend. If that's where it began and ended, although greatly appreciated, the singular event might not be particularly review-worthy. But what makes it notable, laudable, and five-star is that Natalia went well above-and-beyond a simple list of references. She offered sage advice on the merits of private counseling and the more traditional group therapy approaches. She patiently and gently set realistic expectations for my friend's likelihood of success. She knew I was working through personal pain, and saw that I was a "fixer", so she suggested coping strategies to keep me from losing myself in the morass. She persisted in the conversation with me, even though she probably sensed that I was trying to escape in deference to her time. My friend is with the angels now, but, thanks to Natalia, at least I understand and can live with the choices she made while on Earth and with her passing. I know this is one of my simpler reviews, but I cannot emphasize how eternally grateful I am for all of Natalia's help. When it comes to personal counseling, accept no substitutes. She's the real deal.

I absolutely have no bad things to say about Dr. Susan Wills. I was going through a very painful…read moreseparation from my wife, and decided that therapy might help. Dr. Wills was able to very quickly grasp where I was coming from and help me learn things about myself that I had never known. I made very quick breakthroughs thanks to her advice and everything she said really helped. She makes wonderful recommendations not only for actions in yourself but for resources where you can continue to learn more.

2025 update: I am still not over our bad experience with Susan and would like to provide more…read moredetails. In 2020 we were navigating Covid, 2 kids under 2, and an intense medical journey with our disabled son to find out his exact diagnosis. Our marriage struggled through the typical SAHP vs working parent dynamic. My husband was overworked and stressed from being the sole provider for our family during this difficult time. I was complete overwhelmed by day-to-day life with 2 very young kids plus the added stress of navigating (mostly virtual) specialist Dr appts, therapy (physical, speech, and occupational), and learning everything I could about child development to help my son at home since our access to professionals was limited. Susan sided with my husband. I specifically remember her suggesting I allow him 20 minutes to "decompress from his work day" when he comes home. The final straw was when she suggested once a week or so I tidy the house before he gets home and greet him at the door with a fresh cocktail. This is after the fact that we had told her multiple times we are not big drinkers (which kept coming up since oddly many of her suggestions for spending quality time together included drinking). Gag. My husband was equally mortified by these suggestions (even though they benefit him) and we made the mutual decision to discontinue therapy.

During our time together at a behavioral health organization, she deepened my understanding of trauma-informed care in ways that continue to shape my work. With over 25 years of clinical experience, Seanna brings both expertise and compassion to her counseling practice, helping both kids and adults navigate the thoughts and emotions that may be holding you back from a healthy, fulfilling life. I feel incredibly fortunate to have worked alongside her and can't recommend her highly enough.

Seanna is an amazing person and therapist - one who is truly committed to her clients, her…read morecommunity, and her field. I have followed Seanna's work for over 20 years, and I can say without doubt she is an elite-level therapist. She is not only extremely skilled in her methods, but compassionate and caring beyond belief. She is bright, down to earth, and has a way of putting people at ease in her life the moment you meet her. As a person, she is wonderful to speak with in any capacity, is honest in the most helpful ways, and makes people laugh with her fun sense of humor. I have been so personally moved by the work she has done over the last few decades and consistent success she's had with her clients, that I was drawn to serve as a large donor to her previous mental health care organization, which she led as a C-suite executive and founder of the Trauma-Informed Care Consortium of Central Texas. I'd highly recommend Seanna without hesitation as a therapist for any friends, family members, and loved ones.

My personal experience was pretty bad. She made false assumptions and accusations right from the…read morestart in an email chain with my wife and I. After seeing her one session, she was telling me what I should be doing and what I wasn't doing. She was not asking questions, she was telling me and making accusations, presuming a lot of information and knowledge we hadn't discussed. I let that go, because I needed help. But I should have stop seeing her right then. She continued to seek to use the consoling session to accuse instead of to inquire. It felt like I was being cross examined in a legal case, instead her trying to establish trust and make it a safe environment to help me work through my issues. I wouldn't recommend her. I got very defensive after that, because I did not feel safe, I felt attacked. She couldn't separate herself from our situation, by her own admission, when a consoler is telling you that, run. That means they have their own issues they haven't worked through. It's one thing to have a bad, but professional consoler, than it is to have an unprofessional one that is bringing their on emotional baggage to each session. She even attempted to psychoanalyze my very recently deceased mother's personality traits to abstract some mental diagnoses, and then turn that around against me. My mother passed 01/22/17. She was unprofessional almost from the beginning and ending with her becoming emotional involved and bringing her own emotional baggage to our consoling sessions. She was not helpful, I think she even made the situation worse.

At that first appointment we we sitting at opposite ends of the couch, as far from each other as possible. Cathy put us at ease right away. She listened and didn't judge us. We both walked away from the first session drained, but relieved that we had found the right person to help us through our struggles. It wasn't always easy, but definitely needed. We were able to apply techniques she gave us to keep disagreements from escalating into screaming matches. Now when we meet with Cathy, we sit next to each other, and even hold hands. We both feel like we found a friend in Cathy, and would highly recommend Head to Heart and Cathy Teague. She has been a blessing to us.

Highly advise against using their services…read more We originally contacted this Round Rock location due to it being close and easier to work into our schedule without having to account as much for the travel time. We left a message and were soon called back by a counselor from from the Ceder Park location. This was confusing since they have distinct numbers and we certainly dialed the Round Rock location. We let the counselor know this, but rather than get us back with the Round Rock location, she assured us that the travel time would be nothing. However, she had no idea where exactly we live or what our schedules were like and what constituted "nothing". It really felt like I was talking to a salesman who didn't want to let the commission go. All that aside, we decided to see if we could make it work. We tried shuffling some things around, but ultimately, it was going to be difficult. And to us, we didn't think it would be a big deal getting in contact with someone at the Round Rock location. After letting the counselor know that we were going to need the closer location, she told us she would refer us to someone there. This was several weeks ago and we have yet to hear back. Given the type of service that people are seeking from them, this sort of mishandling borders on malpractice. Even if you manage to get in the door without this blunders we ran into, I doubt that you'd be getting the best service.

I can't say enough good things about Lisa Young. Working with her has been incredibly helpful,…read moreespecially during the postpartum period after having my baby. She created such a safe, non-judgmental space where I felt comfortable exploring emotions and thoughts that came up that I honestly wasn't expecting. She helped me gently unpack why certain feelings surfaced postpartum and guided me through understanding them instead of feeling overwhelmed or ashamed by them. She never rushed the process and always met me where I was emotionally. I felt truly heard, supported, and validated in every session. If you're navigating postpartum changes, big life transitions, or just trying to understand yourself better, I highly recommend Lisa Young. She's compassionate, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about helping you move forward in a healthy way.
