Getting to know Mallory Hakes

Hi there, I'm Mallory! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Austin, TX, with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Missouri. I take an unconventional, light-hearted, and honest approach to therapy. **My approach** I understand life is complex and society can feel overwhelming. My goal is to offer a space to grow and develop new coping strategies by challenging unhelpful thinking patterns. I typically use a strengths-based and solution-focused approach. **My focus** I specialize in working with adults experiencing mood disorders such as depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, bipolar disorder, and substance use. I also have experience with individuals impacted by the justice and military systems and the LGBTQIA+ community. **My communication style** I take an easygoing, candid approach with a touch of humor, always maintaining a non-judgmental attitude. I provide psychoeducation and resource information whenever helpful or appropriate. **My journey to mental healthcare** I’ve been an advocate and helper from a young age. My interest began in high school, seeing peers face challenges with substance use and mental health. My own therapy experiences, especially exploring my identity within the LGBTQ+ community, have inspired my work. I'm passionate about helping people discover their authentic selves and foster meaningful connections in an often disconnected world. **My goals for you** Goal setting is collaborative and client-centered. I’ll help you set goals that are actionable and attainable. **My first session with you** In our first session, we’ll focus on building rapport and exploring what brought you to therapy. I’ll ask questions to assess how we might best work together and what your needs are. My goal is to ensure you feel heard, understood, and comfortable.
