What you need is as many four-inch thick bass traps as you can possibly manage. You can make a room like that suitable for mixing, but you'll need to line every corner with bass traps, including wall-ceiling corners and even a few wall-floor corners if possible. If you cover the entire rear wall behind you with four or more inches thick, all the better. If you do all of that, you will take this room from terrible to "not too bad at all."

Do your best with the acoustics, but don't get down on yourself when you have problems with your mixes translating to the real world.. I would hate to be wrong about this. Please someone come in and tell me how a 6' x 9' room with a cubic volume of approximately 432 feet can work and not have insurmountable bass/midrange problems.. From my studies, rooms with cubic volume less than 1100 feet are not suitable..
