Anew Therapy, PLLC
Angela Jensen-Ramirez, LCSW-S, CST
Hi, I'm Angela!
I'm so glad you are taking the time to learn about me and what I have to offer you.
My practice follows attachment-oriented psychotherapy with an integration of intimacy and sexual health for couples and individuals.
I use evidenced-based models, clinical consultation, continuing education, and clinical processing groups to ensure that I am providing my clients with the best psychotherapeutic treatment possible.
I identify with the pronouns she/her/hers.
While I strive to meet all my clients with support and the help they need. My practice is limited in its capacity for acute and emergency crisis. Some local referrals for agencies that are better equipped to help with acute crisis are: https://ywcaaustin.org/ or https://integralcare.org/en/home/.
I have lived in Utah, Washington, California, Oregon, and now Texas. I am thrilled to call Austin my home and am cheering on Austin FC at Q2 stadium!
Lastly, scroll down and meet Mr. Sweenie Todd, my beloved little Dachshund. He's not ready yet to join me in the therapy office...but I'm looking into it.
Counseling With Angela
Couples and relationship counseling make up the majority of my practice. The clients I work with tend to have encountered difficulties in their relationship(s) stemming from negative communication and relational cycles, or are experiencing distress due to trust breeches or implicit/explicit contractual violations in the relationship(s).
I also have specialities in perinatal/postpartum work for women and partnerships that are experiencing adjustment distress, mental and emotional health issues, and stress.
Women who experience pain with sex, loss of libido, or prior sexual trauma that is currently negatively influencing their relationship also fall under my areas of specialization.
Clients who work best with my style tend to have had previous therapy, are in current individual therapy, or are therapists themselves.
Counseling fee:
$175/50 min for Couples, Partnerships, Individuals in person and online
Angela is a private pay practitioner. She is the sole business owner and clinician at Anew Therapy. Angela is happy to assist you with invoices (a.k.a. Superbills) containing necessary information about your diagnosis, session bill coding, and session duration that you can submit to your insurance for “out-of-network” reimbursement if you choose. Angela does not take insurance because insurance companies, as third party payers, will have access to your diagnosis and progress notes.
Angela does offer a slide scale for students in the mental health professions and other mental health therapists.

Mr. Sweenie Todd the Dachshund Dog!
I'm ready to begin
Considering therapy is the hardest part!
Reaching out to a therapist is easy!
There are names for what binds us:
strong forces, weak forces.
Look around, you can see them:
the skin that forms in a half-empty cup,
nails rusting into the places they join,
joints dovetailed on their own weight.
The way things stay so solidly
wherever they’ve been set down —
and gravity, scientists say, is weak.
And see how the flesh grows back
across a wound, with a great vehemence,
more strong
than the simple, untested surface before.
There’s a name for it on horses,
when it comes back darker and raised: proud flesh,
as all flesh,
is proud of its wounds, wears them
as honors given out after battle,
small triumphs pinned to the chest —
And when two people have loved each other
see how it is like a
scar between their bodies,
stronger, darker, and proud;
how the black cord makes of them a single fabric
that nothing can tear or mend.
