I’m really grateful for this group therapy experience. I came in hesitant and unsure what to expect, but it quickly became clear how much value it offered. My therapist Kathy was supportive, attentive, and genuinely present. She listened without judgment, created a space that felt safe and engaging, and brought a warmth and liveliness that made it easy to open up. She shared practical tools and helpful insights that felt relevant not just in the moment, but for real-life challenges beyond the sessions. I walked away with a clearer understanding of myself and a skill set I know I’ll continue to use. I truly feel I benefited from this group and would recommend her to anyone who is serious about healing and personal growth.Posted on Nettie BrickeyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have to say Texas Mental Health Services is literally a life saver! I called them when I was so stressed and at a mental breaking point and from beginning to end, I had support with group and one on one therapy and no judgement whatsoever! I highly recommend them to anyone that feels like they need someone to talk to and not feel ashamed for needing help, I promise you will not be disappointed!Posted on Trevor HarmonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This program has helped me so much. I cannot thank the staff enough for providing great care for helping improve my mental health. If you are seeking help with any type of mental health issues, this virtual based therapy is a great resource. I have to travel for work, so this program worked great with my schedule. It is sometimes hard to admit to yourself that you need mental and emotional help, but the group and individual sessions are welcoming and create a sense of being in a safe place. I highly recommend this program.Posted on Meredith FergusonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The staff has been welcoming and exceptionally kind.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but Texas Mental Health Services in Austin honestly deserves one. When I first came here, I was struggling with anxiety and depression and didn’t really know where to start. The team made me feel comfortable right away — no judgment, just genuine care and support. The outpatient program helped me get my life back on track. I learned real coping skills that actually work outside of therapy, and my therapist took the time to really understand what I was going through. You can tell everyone here truly cares about your mental health and wants you to succeed. If you’re looking for mental health treatment or therapy in Austin, I can’t recommend this place enough. They go above and beyond for their clients, and I’m honestly in such a better place because of them.Posted on omar ramosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
