Austin Relational Wellness

Meet Riley Weeden, the newest member of the Austin Relational Wellness team! Riley works with couples and individuals who long to feel truly seen and heard in their relationships. She brings warmth, curiosity, and a deep belief that meaningful change is possible. 🌿

Her specialties include:

🩵 Couples stuck in conflict patterns or negative cycles

🩵 Individuals navigating perfectionism, people-pleasing & self-sacrifice

🩵 Anxiety, attachment wounds & complex trauma

🩵 Neurodivergence, body image & disordered eating

Before becoming a therapist, Riley studied Behavioral Neuroscience at the University of San Diego, and it was there that she became fascinated by the science of relationships and how essential human connection is, not just for survival, but for meaning and fulfillment. That curiosity led her to St. Edward’s University here in Austin, where she earned her Master’s in Mental Health Counseling. She now practices as a couples therapist using primarily Imago Relationship Therapy.

A few fun facts: Riley loves to golf, is a Reese’s Book Club devotee, and she’s never far from her puppy Nico. 🐾
