My Background<\/h3>\n
I grew up in Waco, TX, and earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Brigham Young University. I completed my clinical internship at SUNY Upstate in Syracuse, NY.<\/p>\n
Since 2001, I\u2019ve worked in private practice, helping adults navigate life with more clarity and self-compassion. In 2018, I founded Creative Solutions Behavioral Health to expand access to care \u2014 including secure, teletherapy services across PSYPACT states.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m licensed in Texas and Pennsylvania and hold APIT certification, allowing me to see clients in over 30 states. Click HERE<\/a> to see if your state recognizes my license<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n I\u2019ve been married for 28 years and have two daughters, and a mini-golden-doodle, who keep life moving and meaningful. I\u2019m a bit of an introvert who loves quiet conversations, good books, and time outdoors. I lift weights for stress relief and dig in the garden for perspective. I’ve dabbled in a bit of background acting and do voiceover work as well. Faith is a grounding part of my life, and I\u2019m happy to integrate spiritual concerns into therapy when that\u2019s important to you<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Footer” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ background_image=”https:\/\/www.creativesolutionsonline.org\/rebuild-csbh-sit\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/psychologist-05.jpg” parallax=”on” overflow-x=”visible” overflow-y=”visible” custom_margin=”2px|40px|40px|40px|false|true” custom_margin_tablet=”0px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”|20px||20px|false|true” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ width_tablet=”” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”20px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_heading title=”Currently only accepting clients to wait-list for teletherapy appointments.” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h2″ title_font=”||||on||||” title_text_align=”center” title_text_color=”#E02B20″ title_font_size=”27px” title_line_height=”1.5em” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Taviraj|300|||||||” text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”1.6em” header_2_font=”Taviraj||||||||” header_2_font_size=”46px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”|30px||50px|true|false” custom_padding_phone=”|30px|||true|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”off|tablet” header_2_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_2_font_size_phone=”30px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”] (512)-798-3444<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ text_font=”Taviraj|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1em” header_3_font=”Taviraj|600|||||||” header_3_text_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.36)” header_3_font_size=”18px” header_3_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”|-20px|60px|-20px|false|true” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”||30px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”] contactjlt@creativesolutionsonline.org<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Taviraj|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1em” header_3_font=”Taviraj|600|||||||” header_3_text_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.36)” header_3_font_size=”18px” header_3_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”|-20px|60px|-20px|false|true” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”||30px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”] (ONLINE APPOINTMENTS ONLY)<\/p>\n 1464 East Whitestone Blvd, St 1901<\/span><\/p>\n Cedar Park, TX\u00a0 78613<\/p>\n <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ text_font=”Taviraj|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.5em” header_3_font=”Taviraj|600|||||||” header_3_text_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.36)” header_3_font_size=”18px” header_3_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”|-20px|60px|-20px|false|true” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”||30px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”] Mon – Th: 8am – 4pm About Me – Jennifer Tzoumas, PhD Therapy is personal.

I mean, if I am picking a surgeon, I really don't care too much about his friendliness as I am not spending much time chatting with him or her. I want to know about the surgeon's technical skills above all else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But picking a therapist is much different. You will be working hard at learning how to approach your struggles differently, and that requires a good cooperative partnership with your therapist. After all, you will be discussing perhaps some of the most personal or painful parts of your life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It is hard to get a feel for someone just from their profile, so you may want to just contact me<\/a> to speak on the phone for a few minutes. In short, I believe the therapy environment should be a good combination of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although your therapist is not just a \"paid friend\", you should feel as comfortable talking with me as you would a close friend, while knowing that I will be adding years of experience and training to that discussion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Surprisingly, I am not an expert in all things (see the humor there?), and will let you know if I think you need additional or alternative experts to advise you.
