Hi, I’m Austin.

You are unique and your therapy experience should be too. I customize treatment plans based on your needs, capacities and goals. I believe in your ability to create a life that feels authentic for your experience. You may not always believe in yourself, but I already do. I know you can overcome anything and integrate new skills into your coping strategies.

I specialize in nontraditional relationship styles, so I don’t need a vocabulary lesson. I focus on the logistics of your dynamic(s) and honor the intriciacies of your relational context. I am proud to provide an affirming, safe space for queer and trans folx, poly practitioners and kinksters, and brands of neuro-spice!

My approach is direct and designed to identify patterns, challenge pre-exisiting beliefs and repair relationships. By understanding the cultural, systemic and relational influences on your life, we can find the keys to reframe ideas and patterns that are no longer serving you.

I am Level 1 trained in Relational Life Therapy and fully trained in the Intensive Relationship Model by the Lombardi Center. I have a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with an Emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. I also hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication from St. Edward’s. I am a Liscensed Professional Counselor Associate supervised by Carissa Cano, LPC-Supervisor.
