About Dr. Holcomb’s Practice: Austin Family Mental Health

My Take on Drug Reps

  • Drug reps and Corporate sales people are not allowed anywhere near Austin Family Mental Health
  • Psychiatric medications are some of the most effective and safest in medicine.

They are tremendously helpful to alleviate the symptoms. However, I am deeply skeptical about the pharmaceutical and insurance industries and try to practice free of their influences.
I am the sole and independent owner of Austin family Mental Health. I opened the practice in 2006 with the intention of providing professional psychiatric care, free of corporate interest. We continue to take as many insurances as possible to Keep the cost low and to provide access to as many people as possible.

A Little About Me

I’ve been a board certified psychiatrist practicing full-time in Austin since 1998. I was fortunate enough to receive great therapy training in my psychiatry residency program. I learned that when you really listen to somebody’s story, there are no mysteries how they come to cope and feel the way that they do.

What I Believe

Good care addresses the source. That involves good therapy and as few pills as possible. The most productive and rewarding part of my practice has been doing group therapy with my patients. This has been very enriching for myself and the clients, and has led to daily group therapies.

My Team

Austin Family Mental Health provide’s a fair deal and a secure environment. Our psychiatric nurse practitioners are highly qualified and have great interpersonal skills.
I’ve learned that you can’t have a good medical practice without excellent management. Our current management and staff are highly professional and provide top rate customer care.
