About Healgood

Healgood is a small group practice in Austin, TX. Healgood prides itself on providing clients with quality, individualized mental healthcare based upon empirically-backed, holistic approaches that considers biological, psychological, environmental, and socio-cultural aspects of our clients' lives. 

At Healgood, we believe that high quality client care starts with our therapists and our team culture. We aim to understand and support the "human" within the clinician - we want you to make time for yourself to spend with family and friends, tend to self-care, and participate in life fully. We are also dedicated to providing our clients with the best mental healthcare possible. This means we engage with our clients and colleagues in an authentic and connected way. 

While our clinicians work collaboratively as a team and with other providers of mutual clients, they are also capable of working independently and taking initiative. They accept direct feedback as offerings and opportunities for growth and are dedicated to continued growth as a human and a therapist. They value connecting with the community by attending networking events, connecting individually with other providers, attending or hosting trainings/CE events, and generally being involved in our community. We aim to create a work culture that prioritizes clinical skills, compassion, camaraderie, and fun. Our team truly values collaboration, growth, and the art of therapy.
