Warm, judgment-free counseling in Austin, TX 

A safe space to grow, heal, and feel like yourself.

Safe Space Healing Collective exists to give you a nurturing place to sort through the hard stuff, build coping skills, and move toward a life that feels more aligned with who you are. We are for you; moving through hard seasons, big emotions, and everything in between.


counseling shouldn’t mean sitting in a stiff chair, spilling your guts, and then buttoning everything back up to walk back into the world like nothing happened. It should feel like stepping into a space where you can kick off your shoes, get cozy in your own skin, and talk honestly about what is really going on.

Think of counseling like a make-your-own-adventure story: you bring the characters and the plot, and together we look at the forks in the road, gather the tools you need, and navigate the twists and turns so you feel supported, challenged in a kind way, and more empowered to face whatever comes next.

I don’t know about you, but...

What you can expect here

In this space, you are encouraged to be your full, unedited self—messy emotions, big questions, and all. Together, we’ll look at what is working, what is not, and gently create new patterns so you can feel more grounded in your daily life and relationships.

  • A supportive therapeutic alliance where you are listened to and believed
  • Practical coping tools you can actually use between sessions
  • An approach that honors your values, history, and goals

A little about our talented therapists:

ally hoffman, ma, lpc

I’m Ally, a licensed professional counselor and the human you’ll be sitting across from (or screen-to-screen with). I work from an eclectic, trauma-informed lens, primarily using person-centered and solution-focused techniques. I especially love supporting teens, young adults, and couples navigating transitional or trying seasons—those in-between moments where it feels like everything is shifting at once.

I’m here to offer a steady, compassionate presence while we collaborate on what “better” looks like for you.


Outside of session, you’ll usually find me outside with my pup, gardening, traveling, or soaking up time with friends and family—things that keep me grounded so I can show up fully for you.

It is an honor and a privilege to have the opportunity to share your space. Let’s talk!
