"Despite the important role of sex in relationships, many of us were never taught how to enjoy it or how to talk about it with partners! In fact, many of us have internalized unhelpful ideas about sex & performance. Throughout my work, I have learned that many people feel confused, lost & ashamed when it comes to sex. I strive to help everyone achieve sexual fulfillment because it IS a healthy & natural part of relationships & life. I take a sex-positive, non-judgmental approach- "sexual fulfillment" will look different for every person & relationship because we all have our own unique preferences!"

"I enjoy working with people to them to find the opportunity in life's challenges. We all encounter painful situations and it is my hope that through therapy, we can work together to reduce the suffering that often accompanies these. My areas of interest include grief and loss, end of life issues, adjustment to illness (chronic or acute), anxiety, depression, parenting issues, life transitions, relationship conflict, post-partum issues. I draw from a variety of interventions, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based therapy, and solution-focused therapy."

"My specialty is working with teens who experience anxiety and depression. We work through strategies to help manage stress around school and friends. We talk about family dynamics and how to improve relationships with loved ones."

"Aren't we all trying to understand and improve our relationships, our experience of sex & intimacy, and the occurrence of anxiety/fear/stress, depression, self-esteem, difficult emotions, and perhaps past trauma? Or maybe we just believe in ongoing personal growth. Our group therapy practice of qualified and skilled therapists - Dan Fajans, Paige Geisinger, John Buscher, and Justin Pere - specializes in Men's Issues, Sex/Intimacy, and Couples/Relationships, working with men, women, couples and families. We have male & female therapists in our practice, spanning a wide array of experience, training and skills to help you."

" As a Couple and Family Therapist, I am honored to collaborate with clients in deciphering what may be holding you back from the freedom to live a more whole, robust life. A concentration of mine is in working with those who have attentional difficulties or learning differences such as ADHD, whether in a couple, family, or individual setting."

"Let's talk about the F-word....Feelings. I am passionate about emotions. All of us are full of them. The emotions we carry with us as individuals, as well as, what we bring into relationships can be powerful and challenging. I also understand that each of us carries with us an emotional heritage that is unique and has served as a means to support, protect, and empower each of us. "

"Have you struggled to help your counselor understand the true nature of your relationship because you believe one of you may have Asperger's/autism? Most well-intended couple counseling techniques are ineffective with couples like you because they are insight-based and emotion-focused, both of which are challenges for someone with Asperger's. I can offer insight into what it means to be autistic and what it means to be neurotypical, so that you can see where growth and change might be possible. Together, we can identify communication strategies that will be more effective and goals that make sense to both of you. You are not alone."

"Suffering is not evidence of failure. It is evidence of one thing... your humanity. We all suffer sometimes and we all deserve compassion and care simply because we're human. Coming to therapy can be scary. Even as you're reaching out to have a chance at a better experience in life, you want to know that who you are, and where you are now, will be respected and cared for. I believe good therapy can be both challenging and gentle, supportive and enlivening."

"I believe we were all meant to thrive in life, not just survive. Sometimes past losses/traumas or present struggles can cause us to feel like we are barely surviving. Some of our work may be exploring how various thoughts/behaviors may be benefiting or hindering your life. Some of our work may be around finding your voice and having the ability to use it kindly, lovingly and well for yourself and your most important relationships. I believe that the change you are seeking will occur as you discover yourself in a new relationship with yourself and others."

"My professional experience includes adults, adolescents and children. I have 20 + years experience working with individuals, families and groups in a variety of clinical settings with an emphasis in; emotion regulation, trauma recovery, grief resolution and substance use disorders assessment & treatment. I am also a welcoming therapist to the LGBTQ community. I am licensed as an Independent Clinical Social Worker and certified as a Chemical Dependency Professional in the state if Washington."

"My ideal client wants to change. Not changing who you are, but how you are. How you show up in your relationships...how you talk to and relate to yourself in the ways that only you know of...how you make choices that will help get you what you want and where you want to be. I'm a skilled and qualified therapist,, and yet I can't change you - you have to want that change for yourself, and be willing to do the work (and yes it can be work!). My role, among other things, is to help you to know what that work is, how to go about it, and to support and encourage you throughout your process."

"I work well with patients suffering from symptoms that they feel no one has the capability to treat. Many of my patients come to me after they have been to other therapists and have not found relief. My patients come to me for a psychotherapeutic experience different from the usual. The patients who are a good fit for my services are sensitive, intuitive, creative, and have had difficulty reconciling their personality with their personal experiences and the world around them. I am especially skilled at working with acute mental health issues. I have worked at Harborview Medical Center and Fairfax Behavioral Health."

"I take a respectful and affirming stance toward my clients, viewing the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative partnership. I work to create a supportive environment of trust and acceptance where together we can safely explore sensitive or painful aspects of your life; identify and change patterns of thought and behavior that cause you emotional suffering, interpersonal problems, or difficulty functioning; and work to enhance your motivation, self-esteem, and self-confidence. My theoretical orientation integrates cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, narrative, existential, and mindfulness approaches. I work from a holistic perspective that considers biological, psychological, socio-cultural, and spiritual factors in understanding human behavior and experience."

"My practice is about helping people who seek healing in the relationship with body, mind, & spirit, as it affects one's well-being & all external relationships. I especially enjoy working with clients who are willing to take responsibility for their current state of being, those interested in cultivating balance & peace in their lives, & wishing to grow in the authenticity of self while working through the limitations of the ego. Often my clients are interested in developing their spirituality, seeking greater depth in connection with themselves & whatever they call the life force or creator, & my sessions offer them that platform."

"I will help you to have more meaningful relationships in life, utilize your talents and abilities more fully, maintain a more truthful and accurate self-esteem, have more satisfying sexual relationships, understand yourself and others in a more meaningful way, and face life's challenges with greater freedom and flexibility. My specialty is relational psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and groups which aids in transformation for most issues in life: grief, loss, anxiety, depression and transition, to name a few.
