We all find ourselves in circumstances at one time or another that call for adjusting to change or making decisions, whether it's charting a path through grief and loss, developmental transitions, job loss, recovering from trauma or the challenges of parenting. Therapy can be helpful in sorting through confusing thoughts and feelings, gaining insight, establishing a course of action amongst different choices, and building confidence through experiencing a deeper understanding of yourself, all in the context of a caring relationship.

Life is wild, being a person is hard and everyone deserves support. I am a Mental Health Counselor who works with individuals (18+), couples and polyamorous partners. As a writer and former journalist, I am compassionate, nonjudgemental and curious. I see beauty and humor in the hard and I believe our struggles can help us find meaning, build connections and foster growth.

I work with individuals who needs support in managing mood, anxiety, OCD/ rumination, and complex trauma. I always place one's struggles in context of the whole person and their relationships past and present. I strive to be authentic as a therapist and create space for you and your unique experiences to emerge in a way that builds trust, honesty, and genuine collaboration.

As a licensed psychologist, I have been providing therapy for over 20 years helping individuals and couples to heal, and to create joyful, meaningful lives. Informed by psychological theory and research-supported treatments, such as DBT, and EMDR, as well as alternative methods, such as yoga, spirituality, and mind-body approaches, I will help you access and utilize your own deep wisdom and understanding to address your unique struggles and needs. After treatment, my clients report not only a reduction of symptoms but also an increase in motivation, ease, purpose, and connection.

My practice is currently full. I help adults increase a sense of stability and resource in times of shift and change. I offer a safe place for you to bring your experience of anxiety, depression, anger, or your struggles with recovery. I work from the perspective that in order to connect with inherent strength and resilience, you don't have to edit or bypass what you're feeling. It's not one or the other. In addition to my work with individuals, I help couples who are struggling find new ways to connect and live with greater ease and joy.

In my experience, things can start getting better fast, long before the problem is solved. Rated in the top 1% of psychotherapists on LinkedIn, I'm warm, practical, experienced & hard-working. I'll help you tackle problems related to trauma, difficult childhoods, bad bosses, relationships of all sorts that just don't work well, and the distress of having repeated disappointments in life. I'm interested in helping make real change, and not just developing interesting insights (although they can be useful too.)

I am an experienced Seattle psychotherapist with a practice in Madrona counseling couples, individuals, and families. I create a supportive, accepting environment for people to regain hope and create positive, lasting changes in their lives. I believe the key to life-altering therapy is an honest, warm and trusting relationship with your therapist - a place both laughter and tears are welcomed. Most of my clients come to therapy to reduce the suffering in their lives, connect better with the people around them, and cultivate passion and purpose. We work together to develop healthier coping skills and relationships and ultimately more contentment and peace.

My work with clients focuses on relationships. I have over 40 years of experience with couples, individuals and families. I specialize in couple therapy but work well with individuals and families.I am active as a therapist, and will be direct and clear about the patterns I see. I will come right to the point, but with care and compassion. I will meet with you in my office or by video. I work with with a range of clients, including straight, gay and lesbians. They may be married, co-habitating or single. Issues include attachment, commitment, betrayal or "heating-up" a partnership gone cold.

Being human is challenging. Am I enough? Too much? Feelings of anxiety and inadequacy can interfere with one’s ability to connect with the self and others. Personal growth requires integration of the mind, body, and soul. Understanding past wounds, exploring difficult emotions and identifying behavioral patterns are steps to creating more fulfilling relationships and providing relief from pain and hurt in one’s life. With empathy, acceptance, and openness, I aim to be a guide along your path toward self-discovery, authenticity, and belonging. *I am an LGBTQIA+ Kink/Poly Ally, I believe in social justice and racial equity.

You wake up in the mornings and don’t feel rested. You're feeling irritable and you've been arguing with your kids or partner.

Anxiety and overwhelm weigh heavy on you, but you’re holding it all in so you can prioritize your family's needs. You're struggling, and you feel burned out. It’s time to do something about it and put yourself first

​ Hi. I’m Hao Zheng. You can call me Daniel. I’m a bilingual (Mandarin) Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adolescents and adults, experiencing anxiety, depression, burning out, and other unstable moods. I was born and raised in Beijing, China, and moved to Texas when I was 18 years old. I have been studying and working in Texas for more than 10 years, which makes me have a better understanding of the cultures on both sides. I am passionate about Logotherapy, which helps people focus on the future and on their ability to endure hardship and suffering through find personal meaning in life.

Seeking out counseling is a courageous act of support that you give yourself and is a challenging and rewarding process that is full of support and deep exploration. I am excited to talk with you about what you are experiencing and how to move forward through the challenges you are facing today.

Many clients come to therapy for multiple reasons; most clients are seeking when the "anxiety" is too much to endure. I provide therapy for individuals-(children, adolescents and adults), couples, and facilitate process groups. I also am a multicultural educator. I help individuals cope with mechanisms that will help find ways to make different choices and re-invent ourselves; so we then become the architect, the planner and the builder of our lives, throughout our lives. I provide workshops and presentations that deal with undoing multiple oppressions in both queer and communities of color.

It's no small thing to ask for help. At whatever pace feels comfortable we'll look at your situation and try to sort out what might be keeping you from the kind of life you want. Together we'll map out short and longer-term goals, developing tools to help you cope with things that right now might feel too big to handle. I strive to create a safe place to be curious about what things in your life are working and what things may need to change.

Overwhelmed with racing thoughts, responsibilities, having to deal with other people, or life in general? Exploring how counseling can help is a brave step! Change is an ongoing process that can be challenging and exhausting. I help you navigate this progression while creating a safe and supportive space to explore and create new ways to transform the areas you have trouble with.

Are you struggling with thoughts, emotions, memories, grief, loss, trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, panic, anger, feeling stuck, or worried about your relationships? My therapy practice is based on a belief that everyone has a unique history with many experiences that shape and transform our ways of being and interactions. Each person is beautiful and whole with a powerful story. So many factors impact our development, how we see ourselves, and how we relate to one another. Sometimes it can be difficult to know who we are, who we want to be, or how to take the next step.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stressed-out or depressed? Do you find you keep repeating the same patterns in your life? your work? your relationships? I can help transform your limiting beliefs into an empowered life. I work with a process that is very powerful and I have seen very positive changes in my clients. You don't have to stay stuck and unhappy. You could live a life with meaning and purpose. If you are you experiencing a painful breakup? I work with Individuals and Couples to Uncouple Consciously. I help you heal your resentments and angers.

Just about everyone experiences difficult times in their lives. Sometimes these are temporary, such as during or after a life transition, and sometimes these are more chronic where we become stuck. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, work or school concerns, or something else, I imagine you are seeking help because you are not feeling the way you wish to feel. I also imagine that you have hope that it can get better.

Are you stuck in repetitive, unhelpful relationship patterns, impacting various aspects of your life? Together we can work to uncover the roots of what is happening. These behaviors often stem from a desire for safety and connection but hinder growth. Yet, everyone can evolve and thrive. Through collaboration, we can work together to understand the causes, paving the way for healthier relationships and a more satisfying life. I offer a safe space for exploration, whether in-person or through telehealth sessions, with evidence-based tools and approaches such as EMDR, EFT, and relational psychodynamic therapy.
