Therapists in East Wenatchee, WA

We are currently accepting new clients! My name is Kendra M, I am a therapist at Traverse Therapy Services. My goal as a therapist is to work together with you collaboratively to find treatments and solutions to the issues and needs that you are facing. Whether you feel like you’re not understood or no one truly understands what you are trying to say or are struggling with anxiety, depression or other mental health needs I have experience and success in helping people on their journey to living healthy, fulfilling lives whether it is their first step or their last. My main goal is to support and help you in any way I can.

I love to help people who are straddling cultures and have a complex relationship with duty and autonomy. So many of us have internalized beliefs around what we are supposed to be doing and how we are supposed to live our lives but haven’t had a chance to sit down and workshop whether this is congruent with our overall goals and wants for ourselves. When we don’t take the time and space to heal the inner child and build self confidence to live our best lives, things like anxiety, depression, and emotional reactivity can creep in keeping us feeling stuck.

Sometimes life poses challenges, and we need some extra support to get us through. Are you wanting to make improvements in your relationship? Or maybe with yourself? Are you feeling overwhelmed? Depressed? Stuck? Therapists at SCAW bring a diverse range of academic and clinical training to their work with adults, teens, and children (ages 2+). We provide individual and couples counseling, psychological testing, parent training, PCIT, and play therapy.

I have 20 years of clinical experience in providing evidenced-based treatment. As a Licensed Mental Health Therapist, I work with children, adolescents, adults, & families with a variety of issues and challenges, including trauma/PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting challenges, children emotional & behavioral issues, stress, etc... I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT skills, Play Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. Guided by my client's needs and issues, I use a variety of therapeutic orientations to work with children, adults, and families.

I work toward helping to increase your tolerance for what may seem to be overwhelming by creating a trusting therapeutic relationship in a safe and non-judgmental environment. I believe that establishing a trusting relationship is foundation to provide you with strengths to look inward, recognize patterns of your thinking processes, and explore quality of relationship(s) that you have with yourself as well as with others.
