Therapists in Richland, WA

Welcome. I'm so glad you're here. Taking this initial step to reach out and pursue therapy is a powerful act of self-love. I wholeheartedly believe that you have inside of you everything that you need to change, grow and heal. My role is to facilitate and support that natural resource as we work together toward your goals. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents dealing with anxiety, depression, healing from trauma (past or present), navigating a difficult life transition, or those wanting to learn more about their own emotions and relationship patterns. I only see teenagers age 15 and up.

I work with adults with a wide variety goals aimed at addressing their mental, emotional and physical health needs. Clients are often struggling with depression, anxiety and a general feeling of being overwhelmed. I also focus on clients who are seeking to improve their physical health and help them to do the mental and behavioral work necessary to change their eating habits, lose weight and improve their health.

**AS OF 04/23/2024: CURRENTLY ACCEPTING A FEW NEW CLIENTS** Trying to focus on one task at a time can be challenging and sometimes boring. Emotions then take over and you find ways to release that tension in a negative way. During this time, it can cause conflict between family members, peers, and/or significant others. These negative thoughts/actions are easy to express and obvious strengths are pushed to the side. Having someone who has gone through this personally/professionally can provide active solutions, which can help develop a sense of ease and comfort within the family and individual.

Since I was young mental health was always a topic in my home, so becoming a 3rd generation therapist was not surprising to those around me. When I realized prioritizing self-care, setting boundaries, & naming feelings were not normal dinner table topics, I wanted to change that. I am passionate about destigmatizing mental health and making tools more accessible. My goal is to empower my clients to use their innate gifts and strengths to conquer anything that comes their way. Taking the first step is brave, but continuing to show up and work towards your goals is courageous.

I work with teens and young adults. We would be a good fit if you’re looking for support with: depression, anxiety, anger, mood instability, self-esteem, creating healthy relationships with others (parents, partners, & peers), teen dating violence, self-injury, or life transitions. Additionally, I treat adult survivors of intimate partner domestic violence. The focus is on personal empowerment finding increased awareness about abuse, clarity, and improved safety.

Life can be hard. Therapy helps! I work with those dealing with long-term health issues, cancer, and grief and loss. I offer individual counseling for many other issues, including navigating major life transitions, depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma and childhood physical, sexual and emotional abuse, issues of self-esteem/self-worth, geriatric mental health, and family of origin issues.

I offer HIPAA-compliant telehealth sessions for residents of Washington and Idaho who are 18 and older.

You’ve grown up wondering if you’re weird, wrong, or at fault. You feel like you don’t align with your family, your assigned gender, or traditional relationships. You wonder if you speak the same language as others in your world. You’ve tried to fit in, get things done, and meet others’ standards, but have always felt like you’re missing the mark. You feel stuck, like everyone else knows something you don’t. Now, you want guidance, support, and a deeper understanding of yourself and your ideal life.

I believe that you are the expert of your life and have strengths that will help you reach your goals. I am here to support you in your growth, through your transitions and through the tougher times. Using a Strengths Based approach we will work together to identify the best tools that you need to get to where you want to be in life. Each person is unique and I don’t believe that any one modality is a “one size fits all”.

My Counseling Approach is based on a professional, honest, and consistent relationship with my clients. Through Cognitive Therapy clients will learn how to develop coping skills to live and enjoy a better quality of life. Clients will also learn how to accept and embrace life's turning points and become empowered to lead a more positive and productive life.

Our time is valuable and it’s important to me that the client feels that value when ending each session. This is the client’s time to enter the space in a judgement-free, safe, and confidential setting. It’s a place to take a bit of a break from needing to be the one who has the answers in high-stress and intense scenarios. It’s also a space where to take the time - at your own pace - to process through trauma or any other stressors you may be facing. Life can be hard. But we can still find joy, fulfillment, and hope for the future. In order to get there, let’s first talk about it.

My name is Mallory and welcome to my profile! I like to see therapy as a way to learn about how our brain works and what changes you would like to make. I take a collaborative approach with my clients, we decide on a plan together that would effectively help them approach their goals. I like to give my clients skills to practice during the week in order to help them start to set routines that are helpful. I only offer telehealth services, which means you can bring your pet to give you support during your sessions!

It is of my personal belief that within most of us lies the resources to live a happy life. Unfortunately, things such as trauma, environmental stressors, or a lack of skills can get in the way of our ability to access these resources. Think of the last time you felt an overwhelming sense of peace, whether that be while soaking in a beautiful scenery, or watching children play. This "peace," or what I call "True Self," is within all of us.

Make a choice, to take a chance, and create a change. I am here to help you see the light in a dark world. Do you feel overwhelmed at times? Do you struggle to regulate your emotions? Do you struggle with time- management, organization, relationships, and staying present? I am here to guide, support, and empower you to be your best self! Life can be very trying and we could all use some sunshine! I am here to listen. I am here to help you problem solve and create the life you want to live.
