Alice Lazare, LCSW

Affirming therapy for teens and adults in Texas.

Available in-person in Northwest Austin and online across the state of Texas.

I’m so glad you’re here.

I provide trauma-informed, psychodynamic therapy to teens and adults, and to families. I have received training in DBT, and am receiving ongoing training in EMDR. I am honored to sit alongside my clients as they work to build lives worth living.

If you feel overwhelmed by the intensity of your emotions, I might be the therapist for you. Reach out to me if you are someone who wants to understand yourself better, and build healthier relationships. My approach is rooted in curiosity, cultural sensitivity, and positive regard.

I have specific passion for and experience working with queer clients. LGBTQIA+ youth (and adults) and their families are always welcome and celebrated in my practice.

I am warm, empathetic, and engaged. I truly care for my clients, and earning the trust of those who I am fortunate enough to work with, is the greatest professional honor of all.

  • You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

    Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

    You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

    Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

    If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

    Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.Item description
