Therapists in Renton, WA

I have worked with individuals in a variety of settings since 2014. I have served individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds such as military families, minority groups, immigrants, and refugees. Most of my work focuses on helping clients find their strengths and use them to manage life stressors, anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, trauma, and acculturation.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, a challenging relationship, loss of a sense of self, parenting struggles, that affect your daily life, relationships, ability to function, work, career? Do you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated, just getting through the day, answering emails, texts or calls, the thought that there’s no light at the end of the tunnel? Do you question, wonder, hope that life could be better? Now more than ever, people are anxious, overwhelmed, uncertain about overcoming a difficult relationship, working through a loss, finding their place in life.

Nhautrey is the owner of Why’s Words Therapy. Nhautrey works with clients between the ages of 3-70 years old, and has worked with clients from various cultures, ethnicities and backgrounds in the form of individual, family, and group therapy. Are you struggling with anxiety? Fighting to get out of that depressive fog? Maybe you are very clear on what your traumas are, or need guidance in figuring out how your traumas have affected you. Have a kid/teen that is struggling? Maybe you just want to see what therapy is all about. Nhautrey is here to help you piece together those aspects of your life and end the stigma of mental health!

I believe that everyone has their own unique story that is worthy of being told. Some stories hurt more than others and I aim to offer a non-judgmental, safe environment for all who seek my services.

Do you feel like you’re stuck in the past and find it hard to be in the present moment? Are you so overwhelmed by anxiety and burnout that any personal/professional commitment feels exhausting? Has something difficult happened and your heart races or your voice gets shaky every time you talk about it? It’s possible to feel at ease and connected to yourself and others after experiencing anxiety, burn-out, or trauma. I’m passionate about supporting teens, Gen Z, and Millennial women through these life events. I specialize in EMDR therapy for trauma, which helps people heal from trauma that feels stuck in the mind and body.

Currently accepting new clients. Welcome! I have been working in the mental health field for many years, mostly devoted to helping treat anxiety, depression, and family issues. Mental health issues can be frightening and exhausting to deal with, so we will create goals for you to successfully achieve based on your own strengths. I believe we all have the ability within us to help heal our scars, pain, or trauma. We will work together to tap into this potential.

I work with children and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief and loss, family changes, challenging peer relationships and the behaviors that can result from these issues. I have training and experience using Play Therapy and Sandplay, which employ children's natural way of communicating and learning, as well as other therapeutic modalities as appropriate to each individual. My approach is client centered and often non-directive, believing that when children experience emotional safety in a non-judgmental relationship, their inner wisdom naturally emerges to guide their learning, healing and growth.

Immediate openings available! I specialize in perinatal mental health, but enjoy supporting parents all along the spectrum of their journey to growing a family. I have specialized training and experience working with people that are facing the challenges of trying to conceive, pregnancy/postpartum, unexpected birth experiences, parenting small children, and loss. In addition to this speciality, I have focused my work in supporting children and adults around themes of trauma, attachment challenges, mood issues (depression/anxiety), identity exploration, self-esteem, relationships, body image, parenting, spirituality, and grief/loss.

I am Lisa Brawn, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, trained Play Therapist, and am currently pursuing a Geek Therapy certification. I am a Gamer & Geek friendly, LGBTQ+ friendly, Sex-Positive therapist. My focus is on helping my clients navigate their lives and relationships. I treat older children/teens, and adults of all ages. Much of my work has focused on anxiety, depression, trauma & post trauma, relationship and family issues, parenting skills, school difficulties, teen/adult ADHD, life transition difficulties, behavioral issues, and self-acceptance.

I work with adolescents and adults with anxiety, depression, grief, chronic pain, issues of personal identity (race/gender/sexuality orientation), and life transitions (relational/ academic/professional). Navigating into the depths of who we are reveals we are so much more than what we sense at the surface. Having support on our journey can allow us to develop tolerance for our full range of emotions, gain awareness of what we feel in our bodies, discover new insights into past events, expand our ability to discuss fears, increase empathy for ourselves, experience more meaningful relationships.

My therapy work is rooted in a systemic approach with children, adolescents, couples, and families experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, parenting challenges, grief, etc... . Through my own identities and experiences as a 1.5 generation immigrant from the Philippines, being raised in Los Angeles, and as an educator for over 20 years, I understand the impact of harm and losses that carry from generation to generation caused by systems that are not made for us. They surface in our lives and within our relationships.

We are a clinic located in Renton with in person and virtual appointments with openings for children, teens, couples and adults who live in or near Renton and would like to use their insurance. People come to RCC to improve their mental health, increase life satisfaction, and gain self-awareness. The human experience is a complicated one and most of us, at one time or another have found ourselves overwhelmed. When we respond to life's struggles in ways less than successful, we may experience depression, anxiety, or other symptoms.

I have been in practice for 18 years. Life can get messy and complicated, sometimes we just need a little help coping. We all have the potential to be living fully; experience joy even during times of trials. "Meanings are not determined by situations, but we determine ourselves by the meanings we give to situations." Alfred Adler

Are you hoping to better communicate, manage conflict and revamp your connection with your partner? Or are you in the midst of a major life transition? My clients struggle like you. Despite their brilliance, creativity and drive, the pressures of adapting to life's changes or communicating with their partner seem overwhelming. Before my clients came to see me, they figured that it was “too late” to make a change, and their life “is what it is.” They feared that if they took any drastic steps to improve their lives, it would be considered “selfish.” The fear of change, but also the fear of never changing created tension and anxiety.

Hello, we are accepting new patients! Whether you're feeling down or anxious, struggling with hurtful and dysfunctional familial dynamics, having difficulty achieving a healthy work-life balance and/or enduring or wanting to heal from past or current traumas, you have found an ally. Developmental, relational and attachment trauma disconnects us from ourselves, our loved ones and even our spirituality. These types of traumas can leave us feeling isolated, unfulfilled and despondent. We all deserve to feel at peace - and that begins by learning how to heal.

Finding a space where you can be fully accepted and known while being encouraged to meet your full potential is rare. This is the space I strive to provide in my office. My name is Laura Matheson and my passion is partnering with adults, adolescents, children, and families to facilitate them in developing better relationships, overcoming anxiety and trauma, and growing in their areas of strength. Through individual, parenting sessions, evidence based treatments, select toys, games, arts, and crafts I will help guide you or your family to develop effective ways to express emotions and thoughts.

Parenting a child with autism or other developmental delays can be challenging. The usual strategies that work with other children often do not work well at all with a child who struggles with sensory processing differences, anxiety or other issues that go along with neurodevelopment conditions. Expert guidance from our autism specialists can help you feel and be more effective as a parent and fully enjoy your relationship with your child. Our behavioral services (ABA) is designed to accelerate your child's development and build lifelong skills for learning and independence.

I am honored to work alongside children and families to help them thrive. As a Registered Play Therapist (RPT) I believe it is through safe, nurturing relationships that children are free to express themselves through their natural language of play. With compassion and understanding, I use both a child-centered and directive approach, while encouraging outside support systems essential to this work.
