Austin Attachment and Counseling Center
Austin Attachment and Counseling Center (AACC) is an association of independently practicing professionals who provide mental health services to individuals, couples, and families including those with special needs and adoptive families.
We share certain expenses and administrative functions, but each professional is completely independent in providing you with clinical services, and each professional maintains separate records. Insurance options may be different with each professional.
Austin Attachment and Counseling Center was founded by Stephen J. Terrell after his own experience with adopting two children with developmental trauma. His own personal search for help led him down many dead end roads. Today, AACC treats all ages of those affected by trauma and their families. AACC works with Individuals, Couples, and Families both in Central Texas and around the world and provides consulting service and continuing education to professionals.
AACC makes no promises to clients regarding treatment outcomes or length of treatment. Our experience tells us that most clients show improvement after the first session and length of treatment varies depending on the commitment of the family or individual.
We have discovered over the years, that using one treatment approach alone rarely ever works in the treatment of trauma and attachment ruptures. Our therapists bring a wide range of treatment approaches into their practices. These are just a few of those approaches and if you are interested in one that is not listed, please contact the therapist directly to see if they have the training:
