LCSW, 9 years of experience
I'm Cali Keating, LCSW ADHD-CCSP. I'm based in Austin, Texas and see clients in Texas and Florida. I'm an ADHD, OCD, and autism therapist and I have ADHD. I help neurodivergent clients take care of themselves. I’m here to help you go from avoiding discomfort to feeling sturdy and tough when you approach challenges. I use evidence based practices to teach you strategies that will work for your brain.
In our first meeting, I will interview you to get the information we need to make a detailed treatment plan. You will be clear on what you want to change and what success looks like.
I am not a "sit and nod" provider, I will speak up, give feedback, and make sure you leave session with a new perspective.
I work with neurodivergent clients who want to take care of themselves. I can help you get back in the driver’s seat. You can feel confident in the structure that makes up your life: work/school, finances, relationships, self-care. We’ll use a blend of discussion and tangibles to figure out your boundaries, self-care, and increase your self-esteem.
Externalizing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors as "parts" can help clients increase self-knowledge and self-esteem. I used IFS to help clients with anxiety, OCD, and ADHD be kinder to themselves.
ERP helps clients with OCD learn to embrace uncertainty and feel tough and brave enough to stop safety behaviors. I help OCD clients learn to relate differently to intrusive thoughts and reduce compulsive behaviors.
Motivational interviewing helps clients who struggle with procrastination, self-care, and low self-esteem take charge of their environment. I help clients with ADHD learn self-care skills and increase self-confidence.
