Ana Maria Cabezas
Owner and Founder
I know what it's like to carry a story that shapes everything, even when no one else can see it.
As an immigrant from Ecuador, I came to the United States as a teenager and learned firsthand what it means to navigate between cultures, to feel the pull of where you come from and the push of where you are. My background as a mestiza, my family culture, and my own journey of healing have made me the therapist I am today. I don't just understand cultural complexity in theory. I've lived it.
I founded Austin Bilingual Therapy because I believe everyone deserves access to care that truly sees them, in a language that feels like home. What started with one small office has grown into a team of dedicated clinicians and a training ground for the next generation of therapists. As a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor (LPC-S), I also have the privilege of mentoring and supporting emerging clinicians as they develop their own therapeutic voice. It's work that matters deeply to me.
My approach draws on EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, play therapy, sandtray therapy, and interpersonal neurobiology. I've learned that there is no single approach that fits everyone, so I meet you where you are and we find the path together. I specialize in intergenerational trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and grief.
If you're ready to start, I'm honored to walk alongside you.
