A small Dallas practice built around couples

Kathryn works with couples who are tired of circling the same conflict and want someone to tell them plainly what is happening and what to do about it. She has nearly two decades in the business, so very little is new to her. Her style is warm and direct. You will get honest feedback and specific, practical things to try.

Her work draws on Gottman informed and cognitive behavioral approaches, applied to the ordinary pressures that wear on a marriage: careers, children, money, extended family and the years that pass without anyone noticing.

Austin works with individuals and couples who want a thoughtful, grounded place to sort out what is happening between them. Her sessions stay focused on stress, communication, grief and major life transitions, with careful listening and useful questions.

She sees clients in the Dallas office and online for clients located in Texas.
