How Dr. Austin Can Help

Dr. Austin provides confidential, concierge, membership, personal counseling, and coaching psychological services for clients experiencing challenges in their everyday life. More specifically, Dr. Austin’s primary focus is on individuals, professionals, couples, families and children experiencing issues with stress, self-esteem, relationships, and goal achievement. Most people are born feeling happy and confident. However, at any age, negative life experiences can quickly change those positive feelings into fear and self-doubt. Living with chronic feelings of personal negativity severely restricts both happiness and success. Managing the many challenges in our faced paced lives does not always happen smoothly and can become a source of escalating problems.

When this happens, it is time to reach out to a highly skilled, empathetic and non-judgmental professional who can partner with you in helping finding solutions to your problems and improving your life. The quality of treatment you receive always depends on the knowledge, ability and skill of your clinical psychologist or counselor. The National Register of Health Service Psychologists in Washington, DC lists the names of the most highly vetted and trained Clinical Psychologists in the United States. Dr. Austin is listed there and her number is #43911. Dr. Austin has experience in working with clients from around the world and who have a wide variety of personal, professional and family issues.

Dr. Austin partners with clients and helps them in moving forward and starting the next stages of their lives while they continue to cope with their complex mental and emotional problems. When starting counseling or coaching, Dr. Austin and each client partner to design an Individual Treatment Plan (ITP) based on the client’s personal goals and current challenges. The ITP is frequently modified over the course of treatment as major goals are achieved and each ITP may include a combination of different treatment modalities. Because each client is unique and, individual differences matter greatly, the ITP plays a major role in maximizing treatment success. Clients are often encouraged to keep written records, notes or diaries about what they have done between sessions and discuss important issues at future sessions.


The goal of all psychological services at Allied Counseling is to help every client become more relaxed, happy, creative and successful and obtain the life they deserve. Dr. Austin likes to tell clients that: “The greatest journey of your life is discovering things about yourself you never knew. Dr. Austin encourages clients to think of every challenge as a chance to do things they never thought they could and never let fear hold them back because fear is simply false evidence appearing real.” By the end of treatment, every client will have gained increased confidence to more successfully cope with the choices, chances and challenges they face.

PERSONAL GOAL ACHIEVEMENT QUESTIONS

As you look at the Allied Personal Client Services List, Dr. Austin suggests you ask yourself the following three questions and focus on how they relate to achieving your personal goals.

  1. What is my most troubling problem and how long has it been bothering me?
  2. What would I like to discuss but it is hard for me to say because I fear I will be judged and misunderstood?
  3. Is today the day I am ready to partner with Dr. Austin and change my life?


Always know that you are not alone and Dr. Austin is only one phone call away. 

PERSONAL LIFE SUCCESS COACHING:

Personal Life Success Coaching is not counseling and only deals with a specific current problem or issue. Dr. Austin has experience coaching people of different ages and in many areas of their daily life including: academic success, ADHD, school behavior, job success, parenting, and social skills (friendships and dating). Personal Life Success Coaching is growing in popularity because it helps people stay focused while receiving professional support and guidance in an empathetic, understanding and non-judgmental environment. For Executive Performance Coaching see Allied Corporate Services.
