Dr. Melina Cavazos

Welcome! My name is Dr. Melina Cavazos, and I am a licensed psychologist at Hill Country Anxiety located in Cedar Park, TX. I specialize in providing services for children, adolescents, young adults, and parents in a range of anxiety-related difficulties, including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Tourette’s/tics disorders, phobias, body-focused repetitive behaviors (e.g., hair-pulling, skin-picking), perfectionism, and co-occurring depression.

I understand that therapy can be a vulnerable experience. My therapeutic style combines warmth and empathy to build a strong and collaborative relationship throughout the treatment process. I help my clients meet their therapeutic goals using highly effective and well-researched approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy, and/or Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT).

I provide a safe and open-minded environment for my clients to be able to freely express themselves while gaining individualized support. My treatment modalities allow for my clients learn, build, and practice effective skills to be able to better manage their own symptoms. With full efforts, clients will be able to apply those skills to a variety of situations over the course of a lifetime!
