Introducing our new Intern, Kyle Kearns! Kyle is our Graduate Level Clinical Intern working on his Master's in Professional Counseling, at Texas State University. Supervised by Kristal DeSantis, LMFT.
Kyle will be taking short-term clients at a reduced rate of $25 per session for individuals and $40 for couples. He is currently adding new clients to his caseload.
Kyle's Approach:
"I work with couples and individual adults who feel stuck. In therapy, we identify the patterns that keep you from the change you want.
I specialize in working with clients in stigmatized and under-represented relationships: q***r folks, consensual non-monogamy, kink, long distance, poly. Though I use a wide range of techniques, my main approach is somatic internal family systems therapy.
I will help you by creating a supportive space to explore, reflecting back what I observe, and sharing what I've learned from a decade of studying relationships and mental health."
About Kyle:
"I have spent the past 9 years as a researcher studying romantic relationships. While I love that part of my job, it usually takes 5-10 years for research discoveries to make their way into your therapy session (which is too long!). So, I became a therapist to be part of the hard work that couples are doing every day.
I have lived in Austin for 10 years, and I'm grateful for my chosen family here. When I'm not with them, I spend a lot of time with my imaginary friends in books, TV shows, and podcasts. I do my best thinking at the grocery store, the dance floor, or the park."
