Serving East Austin · Telehealth + In-person
Therapist for East Austin
Secure telehealth anywhere in Texas, plus in-person sessions at our Northwest Austin office about twenty minutes away.
Finding a therapist in East Austin usually runs into the same wall twice. The practices with the shortest drive have the longest waitlists, and the ones taking new clients are somewhere you'd have to fight traffic to reach. Neither is a reason to keep putting it off.
Haven & Harbor works with clients across East Austin, Mueller, Cherrywood, Windsor Park, North Loop and Springdale. Most meet by secure video. Some come in person to the Northwest Austin office, roughly fifteen to twenty minutes up 183 or across on Lamar depending on the hour. You can mix the two week to week.

How Brittany works
Brittany Zientek is a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of trauma-focused practice, trained in Internal Family Systems and Trauma-Focused CBT, with somatic tools when the work calls for it. Sessions are unhurried and paced to what your nervous system can actually integrate. She does not offer EMDR and refers out when EMDR is the right fit.
