Colors Of Austin Counseling
We are social justice oriented in our practice and inclusive in our work within the community. Our goal is to reduce the barriers that exist when it comes to mental health support and to provide high quality clinical services to all regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, ability and/or socioeconomic status.

Real change happens when we are able to sit with the discomfort. When we speak truth to bullshit. When we, as mental health professionals, have conversations about race with clients. When we acknowledge our imperfections, and when we listen to and believe Black people's stories and thoughts. We understand the importance of amplifying voices of the Black community.
Services
We all have periods of times in our lives where we experience struggle. The intensely painful feeling that we are unworthy of love and belonging and the constant comparison between ourselves and others can make navigating life difficult. We all need someone who will listen, validate and be a part of our many emotions depending on what's happening in our lives at this very moment.
Starting at a young age your child is becoming aware of their feelings, thoughts, and needs. They are exploring social expectations and how to appropriately engage with others. It can be overwhelming to observe your child struggling to manage their behaviors. Therapy can provide a safe space for your child to process, learn and practice the tools to manage stressful and complex situations.
Being a teenager can be extremely difficult and emotionally draining. On top of the physical changes that happen during these teen years, there are daily peer pressures and high expectations that they are constantly facing that can make getting through each day a great task. The good news is that it's possible and it's also an exciting time to be a part of a teen's development and growth.
Each family has their own unique dynamic. It's not always easy being part of a family, it can be messy and chaotic. That doesn't mean it always has to feel that way. Being taught the skills to repair relationships and resolve conflicts will leave your family stronger and closer as a unit.

Your therapist will work with the whole family to facilitate stronger relationships, while providing a supportive environment for each member to work on enhancing positive communication, conflict resolution techniques, and supporting one another.
Relationships are meant to be beautifully complex and multifaceted. They evoke feelings of joy, safety, love, and harmony along with frustration, confusion, secrecy, and sometimes downright anger. Just as each of us evolve as humans, relationships too evolve over time; we sometimes lose sight of the initial spark that ignited the flame within the relationship.

Report
This is the first time I've had therapy that I feel like I've been making progress with--I usually have a really hard time opening up to them or am too difficult to work with. I've felt super understood as a chronically ill trans guy, and like this counseling office has been willing to work with me when it comes to how being sick makes scheduling a nightmare sometimes.
