This Isn't a Typical Therapy Space
The environment is part of the experience.
Back Porch Therapy was created as a place to slow down, settle in, and begin again. Set in a natural, thoughtfully designed environment, this space offers a different kind of experience—one that feels more human, more grounded, and less clinical than a traditional office.
Conversations tend to unfold more naturally here. There’s room to pause, reflect, and move at a pace that feels right for you. The setting is intentional—because the environment you’re in can make a meaningful difference in the work you do.

A Different Setting for a Different Kind of Work
Set on the Grounds of the MM Homestead
The MM Homestead is a half-acre pocket of Austin filled with gardens, porches, old trees, and a small collection of animals who have a way of becoming part of the experience. There are places to sit with a cup of coffee, wander for a few minutes before a session, or continue a conversation outside when the weather cooperates. It’s not polished or clinical—it’s lived-in, a little eclectic, and meant to feel more like somewhere you’d want to stay awhile than somewhere you’re waiting for an appointment.
Therapy on a Homestead?
What better place to come as you are? You don’t need to arrive composed, prepared, or knowing exactly what you want to say. Grab a cup of coffee, find a comfortable spot, and we’ll start wherever you are.
