Therapists in Normandy Park, WA

Are you struggling with unhealthy habits and lack of motivation? Is pain and trauma from the past interfering with your life today? Are you struggling with anxiety, fears, shame, or depression and nothing has helped? Do you just want to feel worthy, confident, productive, empowered, and successful? If you are ready to heal your past, love yourself, and gain control of your thoughts, feelings, and behavior, I can help. Even though I don't accept insurance, you'll discover quicker, more effective, and longer-lasting results with the services I provide with fewer sessions Contact me and let's talk, so you can begin feeling better now.

Do you experience anxiety in your body, causing you to feel tense, panicky, or disconnected from your authentic self? Do you sometimes feel out of control and struggle to manage stressful situations? You may even avoid certain situations or endure them with intense discomfort, leaving your energy depleted. Perhaps you are concerned about your child’s or teen’s anxiety and its affect on their school or home life. Though anxiety is often addressed through traditional talk therapy, a more holistic approach can build confidence to navigate life’s ups and downs with greater ease.

With genuine positive regard and a creative approach, my practice is committed to fostering awareness, healing and empowerment. The therapeutic relationship ultimately deepens the relationship with oneself and how we navigate challenges in the art of living. I facilitate with getting to the heart of the matter, gleaning meaningful insight, and building upon internal and external strengths. I have worked professionally for over 20 years, supporting a diverse population of hundreds of adults, youth, children, couples and families through and beyond, trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, life transitions and relationship difficulties.

I work with clients to process trauma, emotions, and life stressors; cope with and ease symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and post-traumatic stress and expand their window of tolerance/what they are able to tolerate; rewire thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and thereby one’s environment to align with their authentic truth and desires; define and draw boundaries; and identify core beliefs. I love to help women create a life in alignment with their menstrual cycle (intentional scheduling, eating, intimacy, and socializing for optimal energy functioning), as well as help all people structure and deepen their spiritual path.

Sometimes life can feel a bit overwhelming and cause you to feel alone. I believe that asking for help takes courage and is a powerful move in making a difference in your life. You do not have to go through the struggles of life alone. I view counseling as a collaborative process, where you are the master of your life, and I am joining along for the ride. I hope we can work together to find the answers you may be looking for within you. I am here to help with any life challenges you may be going through.

What is your body telling you? Do you or your child/teen ever have that heart-beating fast, sweaty palms, knees shaking, upset stomach, foggy brain feeling? Ever notice these feelings during social events, big life decisions or transitions, in relationships or in particularly overwhelming environments? Do these sensations ever result in feelings of being discouraged, exhausted and preferring to be alone? These are just a few examples of how our bodies can communicate overwhelm or overstimulation of a lived experience. Our mind-body connection can make a huge impact in our ability to regulate and manage these sensations.

Hi there and welcome! My name is Hanna Maple. I am so excited that you are here! I feel so honored to be a consideration in your mental health journey. :) As we navigate through life's many paths, we often encounter barriers to relationships with others and ourselves. Regardless of the situation, I am here to support you, listen to you, and help you reach your goals. You are not alone!

I am an artist/poet turned therapist. My method is to slowly build a therapeutic relationship, uncover strengths, and move toward client-identified treatment goals. I support clients to externalize problematic narratives or inner states they are stuck in through creative mediums. Once clients are resourced and can see, and then interact with their patterns and parts they make changes. Together we discover and incorporate parts of the self that had to go underground due to trauma or oppression. Clients emerge from their work, whole and empowered.

With a background in education, life certificate in school psychology and neuropsychology and training at the University of Washington Medical Center and Children's Hospital Los Angeles, I work with all ages 6-96. My unique interests include Non Verbal Learning Differences and family interventions that assist for a lifetime. Creativity, science, and disciplined application are the tools in a cognitive behavioral, object relations approach that moves the client forward with responsibility, boundaries, and wise choices.

Thank you so much for viewing my profile. I am currently not taking new clients. I wish you all the best and please check back in the future. Are anxiety and emotional challenges disrupting your ability to live in your personal and relationship potential? Would you like support learning to relate with greater compassion and connection to yourself and others? Are you interested in holistic, intuitive guidance to shine awareness on blocks or patterns challenging your well being? Would you like to connect with your breath and body as allies in healing? Are you struggling with infertility? I have been there and can help.

Let's create space for you. Imagine, talk therapy with a focus on the mind/body connection. "Bringing movement to mental health." Together we can build greater self awareness, tools for coping, practice regulating the nervous system, and express what's inside.

Through hypnotherapy and guided imagery, we can work on anxiety, learn stress management, cure seasonal mood disorder or overcome the COVID blues. Living in a state of fear or anxiousness can alter your DNA and accelerate aging. While in a hypnotic state, your body and mind are in such a deep place of relaxation that your organs and cells have a chance to heal. You will leave your sessions feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.

Aloha e. Aaron adapts evidence-based therapy to your culture, religion/spirituality so, therapy makes sense. This is commonly known as, Cultural Psychology. He has over a decade of experience working across cultures with a focus, but not limited to trauma, depression, anxiety, racism, and healing from abuse.

I am driven to help you lead the life you are yearning for. Many of us can feel stuck and overwhelmed with life’s challenges but you are not alone in your journey to making a healthy change. I have over 7 years of experience working with children, teens, families, couples, and adult individuals in reaching their mental health goals. I help people overcome their fears, manage anxiety, cope with depression, and improve their relationships with others. I am a strengths-based therapist who believes in meeting each client where they are and individualizing treatment to meet everyone’s unique needs.

Good Grief. Life’s unpredictability, traumatic experiences, loss and difficult relationships can leave us feeling confused, stuck, anxious, depressed even…hopeless. As a relational therapist, my purpose is to move with you, through your pain, discovering together how the grief you are experiencing might be the precise path towards wholeness & growth. If the entire human project is the process of transforming our suffering into meaning, then this is the hero’s journey. You are unique. Your agonies are unique. Your life story and your longings are unique. Yet, you are not alone. Let's meet the work of discovery...together.

For 28 years, I've worked with clients to support healing around trauma, marriage/partnering, sexuality, grief, depression/anxiety, addictions. Using Somatic Experiencing, family of origin, meditation/movement work, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and Internal Family Systems, I work with clients to help them develop a deeper sense of self, to face life's inevitable challenges with clarity and resources. Clients can repair their marriages/partnerships. Emphasized is the capacity to stay emotionally present, to attune, differentiate, have healthy boundaries, practice dual awareness and have clarity about attachment issues.

Mental health shouldn’t be a privilege. So much of how we feel in our minds and bodies has to do with the identities we inhabit in the world and how our environments do or do not support us. Counseling is a tool that can be helpful when dealing with the natural anxiety, depression, and grief that can arise as a result of living in a culture that refuses to see you or value you. I work with folks through an anti-oppression and somatic (body-based) lens. As a Non-Binary and Queer therapist, I am passionate about the decolonization of the therapy space. The personal is political.

My passion is to motivate, educate and support the deepest level of healing and highest level of achievement available to my clients, personally, professionally and in their relationships. I assist my clients in healing long standing issue as they move through difficult life circumstances with a deeper understanding and appreciation of themselves and others. Utilizing my training in fitness, holistic nutrition, & personal growth combined with over 20 years experience in mental health, I feel uniquely qualified to assist my clients in understanding and healing their "whole being". I'm licensed and have practices in WA and CA.
