If you’re feeling worn down by anxiety, anger, or drinking more than you want—or stuck in cycles of codependency or conflict at home—especially in blended families or across different faith traditions—you’re not alone. Sometimes abandonment or attachment wounds make closeness feel risky, and arguments can escalate into aggression that leaves everyone hurting.
I love working with individuals and couples, including premarital and interfaith partners, who are ready to turn pain into clarity and connection. You bring wisdom from your lived experience; I bring steady support and practical tools. Together, we’ll move at your pace, without judgment, and create space for safety, dignity, and growth.
I’m Melissa Austin, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with 20 years of experience. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) with a strong relational lens through Couples Therapy and Conflict Resolution Therapy. We’ll calm anxious thoughts, address addiction and alcohol abuse with compassion, build skills for anger management, repair trust, strengthen attachment, and help your blended family communicate more clearly.
If this resonates, I’d be honored to talk. Reach out to schedule a first session—I offer therapy in English—and let’s take the next step toward the relationships and life you want.
