ABOUT GOT YOUR SIX COUNSELING
Got Your Six Counseling was founded in 2019 to offer military service members, first responders, and their families the care they need and deserve. Our mission is to provide comprehensive support that acknowledges the unique challenges of these demanding roles, offering both in-person and telehealth services to ensure accessibility and convenience.
Our entire team is dedicated to making the process as simple and effective as possible from beginning to end. Whether you're seeking individual therapy, relationship counseling, or support for your family, we're here to help you navigate life’s challenges with resilience and strength.
Got Your Six Counseling is now under the leadership of Melissa Austin, LSCSW, a dedicated clinician who is a veteran and the spouse of a law enforcement officer. Melissa and her family have called Southeast Kansas home since 1989. She graduated from Pittsburg State University in 1994 with a bachelor’s in social work and later earned her master’s in social work from the University of Kansas. After working in medical social work, Melissa began her career as a therapist at Crawford County Mental Health.
As a veteran herself, as well as the wife and mother of veterans, Melissa understands the unique stressors that come with military and first responder life. Creating a safe environment to work through these challenges is of the utmost importance to her. Melissa is honored to continue the work that Got Your Six Counseling has been known for, providing the support you need along your journey.
