Getting to know Austin Giltus
With 27 years of experience in behavioral health and 18 years in psychotherapy, I am a skilled psychotherapist dedicated to offering comprehensive, compassionate care to individuals and couples. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Loyola College, providing a strong foundation for my clinical expertise. My experience covers a wide range of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, stress management, and mood disorders. I use evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT).
I specialize in treating complex issues like addiction, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, trauma recovery, and personality disorders. I also address relationship issues including intimacy challenges, infidelity, dysfunction, communication problems, and marital conflicts. My expertise in sex therapy helps treat sexual dysfunction, sexual addiction, and porn addiction.
Committed to culturally sensitive therapy, I speak Tamil and Malayalam and understand Hindi and Oriya, enabling deep connections with clients from diverse backgrounds, especially Asian and Indian communities. My experience includes Christian counseling and working with clients from various religious backgrounds, ensuring a holistic approach to mental and emotional well-being. I also offer specialized therapy for LGBTQ clients, addressing issues related to questioning, coming out, and unique challenges faced by this community.
I use diverse therapeutic techniques, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, tailoring treatment plans to each client’s needs. Whether seeking help for mental health disorders, relationship issues, or sexual health concerns, I am here to guide you toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
