When Life Feels Unsteady, Find Your Anchor.

Practical, down-to-earth counseling that helps build clarity and confidence through life’s challenges.

Hi, I’m Austin.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) providing counseling services to teens and adults all throughout Washington state. I’ve been practicing in the mental health field in a variety of capacities for the past 8 years. My background in community behavioral health has given me the opportunity to work with people of all ages and across a wide range of experiences and diagnoses.

I’ve also served in leadership roles, providing supervision to mental health professionals supporting high-risk youth and families in their communities. Alongside this work, I’ve been a communication educator, training individuals and organizations in Motivational Interviewing and exploring the ways our communication can foster connection and lasting change.

I started Anchor Point Mental Health to support people with navigating all the stuff life throws at us. Whether you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or simply tired of carrying everything on your own, my goal is to help you slow down, make sense of what's going on, and explore new ways of moving forward.

Specialities

Men's Issues

Many men grow up with the message that they should handle things on their own, push through, and keep moving. But carrying stress, frustration, self-doubt, or loneliness by yourself can take a toll. Therapy offers a space to be honest about what's going on and figure out how to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.
Stress/Burnout

When life starts feeling like an endless list of responsibilities, it's easy to end up running on empty. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by work, family demands, or just trying to keep up, therapy can help you slow down, regain perspective, and find a healthier, more sustainable way forward.
Anxiety

Anxiety can show up as constant worrying, overthinking, trouble relaxing, or feeling like your mind never shuts off. Together, we'll work to understand what's driving the anxiety, develop practical tools to manage it, and help you feel more grounded in your day-to-day life.
Depression

Depression often looks different than people expect. It can be feeling stuck, disconnected, exhausted, irritable, or simply not enjoying life the way you used to. Therapy can help you make sense of what you're experiencing, reconnect with yourself, and begin taking steps toward feeling better.
Relationship Issues

Relationships can be one of the most rewarding (and challenging) parts of life. Whether you're struggling with communication, recurring conflict, trust, boundaries, or feeling disconnected from the people who matter most, therapy can help you better understand relationship patterns and build stronger, healthier connections.
