Are you ready to embark on a journey toward healing, self-discovery, and positive change? My name is Caitlin Hargrove, and I’m honored to be your trusted companion on that path.

I’m a dedicated therapist based in the heart of Austin, Texas, with a passion for helping individuals like you overcome life’s challenges and find their inner strength. With years of experience and specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) and EMDR 2.0, I offer a unique and effective approach to therapy.

EMDR operates on the belief that our mental health symptoms stem from traumatic memories, which are stored differently than non-traumatic memories. Picture it as these memories being “frozen” in your mind and body, keeping you stuck. EMDR’s role is to thaw these memories, stimulating your brain’s information processing abilities, ultimately “unfreezing” the memories, and enabling the release of the emotions and sensations that have been trapped with them.

Whether you’re grappling with a specific, deeply painful memory or experiencing mental health symptoms without a clear cause, EMDR allows us to navigate these challenges by reprocessing past memories. As we delve into this work, it’s common for repressed emotions, traumatic memories, and buried difficulties to surface. I’m here to guide you through this uncharted territory, providing a safe and supportive environment for your journey. However, therapy doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom! With EMDR 2.0, there is lightness and playfulness introduced in the healing process, making it a more comfortable and engaging experience.

In addition to EMDR, my approach incorporates elements of various other therapeutic modalities, including mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and sometimes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Always, I maintain a non-judgmental, warm presence and unconditional positive regard for you.

If you’re ready to make positive changes in your life and embark on a journey towards feeling better, I’m here and eager to work with you.

I offer both in-person and telehealth appointments and have afternoon and evening appointments to accommodate your busy schedule. I also offer a free 15-minute phone call to answer your questions and see if we would be a good fit.

Fee: $125 per 50-minute session
