      <image:title>Home - Hi, I'm Ariana Freshour, MA, LPC, NCC I'm an Austin, Texas-based therapist working with adults, adolescents, and children ages 10 and up, in person and virtually. I specialize in anxiety, life transitions, ADHD, grief, and relationship challenges, using an integrative approach that blends CBT, solution-focused strategies, and client-centered care. With 8 years in private practice and a decade of experience supporting youth in school settings, therapy with me feels like a real conversation, not a script. Schedule your free 15-minute consultation below.</image:title>

      <image:title>Services - Teletherapy</image:title>
      <image:caption>For those who value convenience or have a busy schedule, teletherapy offers a flexible way to access therapy from the comfort of your own home. I use a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform that allows us to connect virtually through video or phone. Teletherapy is available to anyone located in Texas and offers the same quality of care as in-person sessions, no matter where you are.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Services - Individual Psychotherapy</image:title>
      <image:caption>In-person therapy is a chance to sit down and explore what's been weighing on your mind. Whether you're an adult navigating a major life transition, an adolescent working through school or relationship challenges, or a parent seeking support for a child ages 10 and up, individual therapy gives you a focused, supportive space to feel understood and develop practical tools for your well-being. My goal is to create an environment where you gain insight and confidence in navigating life's challenges.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Services - Walk and Talk Therapy</image:title>
      <image:caption>If you find sitting in an office setting challenging or want a refreshing approach to therapy, walk and talk sessions could be a great fit. We'll meet in a comfortable outdoor setting where movement and a change of environment often help ease tension and encourage more natural conversation. Many clients find they feel more relaxed and open during walk and talk sessions. These can be used on a regular basis or as an occasional alternative to in-office appointments.</image:caption>
