About Charles Austin

I am licensed in New Mexico and Texas as a LCSW (Clinical Social Worker) with 35 years of professional work experience. I have developed and directed outpatient and inpatient rehab programs and now I’m in private practice in Santa Fe. I have experience in helping clients with addictions, stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, depression and values clarification . I also have experience working with life changing stressors that can appear overwhelming at times. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage as I know from my own personal recovery experience. I am here to support you in achieving greater life satisfaction and success of your personal goals.
