Therapists in Seattle, WA

Whatever you are going through, you shouldn't have to go through it alone. Sometimes, we encounter barriers that can keep us from living the joyous life we deserve. Maybe those barriers include: depression, anxiety, or trauma reactions. Perhaps you need help on building your skills, strengths, resiliency, and emotional awareness to cope with the various challenges throughout life. Or, maybe you want the tools to align your life with your values and vision. Even though painful, difficult experiences are inevitable, that does not mean we can't live our best lives, or be our most authentic and fulfilled selves.

Life can be difficult to navigate and it can feel like everyone has a different opinion on what we need to feel better. My goal as your therapist is to help you find your own way. No matter what your current struggles are, it is my belief that aiding you in discovering what helps you as an individual is going to be the most beneficial. I will explore your strengths, patterns, and barriers in order to identify your unique path towards change and healing. The clients I generally see are teenage, adolescent, young adult, and adult (16-50).

As a therapist, my role is to support you in navigating life, relationships, and mental health in ways that center your needs and values. I do this through an intersectional and strengths-based approach. My therapeutic approaches integrate themes from a range of frameworks including narrative therapy, mindfulness, DBT, social justice, trauma-focused, disability justice, and CBT (cognitive-behavioral therapy). You are welcome to bring yourself as you are without judgment​ and will be met with acceptance and empathy.

My approach to therapy is person-centered, holistic, and strengths-based. I believe clients are the experts of their own stories, and my role as a therapist is to create a safe space for individuals to explore intersecting aspects of their identities. Therapy is not about asking “what’s wrong” and instead about building upon existing client strengths in order to create a meaningful and rich life. My toolbox consists of a variety of counseling modalities. I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dreamwork and Dream Arts Therapy.

Welcome! Reaching out for help can feel difficult. The stress of everyday life- work, school, family, finances, relationships, etc. can feel difficult to manage. I find it is important to build a strong therapeutic relationship built upon trust, empathy, and compassion. I am here to offer an inclusive, non-judgmental, safe space where you feel comfortable to explore areas of your life that feel complex or troubling.

As a licensed psychologist for 36 years, I have worked with a wide variety of clients, helping them to successfully move through their challenges and achieve their goals. Examples of these goals could be symptom relief, improved marriages/relationships, working through problems with teens and parenting, personal growth, improved relationships with friends or colleagues at work, increased satisfaction with feelings about yourself or your direction. My style is highly engaged and interactive. I will provide a safe/caring environment, focusing on your strengths as well as your areas of pain and distress.

Are you navigating the complexities of life transitions, grappling with challenges like the uncertainties of adulthood, aging or the ups and downs of teenage years? Are you experiencing shifts in your relationships, thoughts or career? You aren’t alone. Life is full of change which often brings up difficult emotions. Through therapy, I offer a safe and confidential space where you can explore your emotions, build up your strengths, and feel self-empowered. My goal is to guide you as you navigate your evolving life be it parenting stress, relationship changes, career shifts, health trials or other demanding challenges.

As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Washington State, and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in California, I enjoy working with blue collar individuals, first responders, active and former military, college athletes, and adults of all ages who are seeking help navigating the struggles life throws at us. My ideal client is anyone looking to face and overcome life’s stressors, depression, anxiety, anger issues, addictions, and/or crisis of faith.

Hello! Embarking on a course of therapy can feel incredibly vulnerable. The demands placed on your time, energy, trust and finances are significant. On top of that, many people come to therapy after having already experienced a variety of invalidating interactions when attempting to open up to others. For that reason, I am particularly sensitive to the importance of hearing your story with curiosity, empathy, open-mindedness and humility. Therapy works best when you are in the driver’s seat and my role is to support your agency by guiding you towards making the healthiest choices possible based on YOUR identity, values, and needs.

Do you struggle with a life-debilitating issue, family chaos, adjustment issues, or self-esteem? You've come to the right place. Life's hurdles can be easy to overcome with someone by your side and with easy access to care. With Heal to Glow Counseling and Therapy, I empower clients who need the privacy, comfort, and convenience of online services.

I love working with teens, younger and middle-aged adults, and males from different populations and cultural backgrounds who are going through difficult life changes such as independence exploration, career path discovery, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. I believe healing takes place in a safe and supportive environment where individuals can be their true selves. The way I do therapy is based on the value of learning “Once we learn something you can’t unlearn it”, and growth “by learning what skills you have or want to learn to become your true self”.

Hello! I’m Dr. Bobbie Sue. I have had the pleasure of working as a Clinical Social Worker since 1997. I have a PhD in Social Work and Social Research and have a particular interest in the area of resilience and using strategic techniques to increase and support personal growth and optimism.

You're struggling with past traumas. Maybe you don't even realize that a lot of your frustration, anxiety and depression and current struggles are linked to past traumas. It can be overwhelming dealing with intense emotions and identify the why behind it to change your life. I would love to work with you and address some of the emotions and struggles that you have been dealing with. Have there been some past events in your life that have fundamentally changed you as a person?

Whether you would like to: process trauma or burdens and possibly release them; grow towards less shame and more self-love; increase understanding of next steps that are most congruent and life-giving for your personal and or professional life; or discuss tools to support the most effective communication and relating in your relationships; all are welcome. I draw from more than 14 years in psychotherapy, education and spirituality; and I bring respect for all identities, histories, heritages and overall social locations including the path of immigrants, individuals with H-1B visas, refugees and asylum seekers.

So often we experience stress, fear, sadness, and other conflicting emotions that lead to the development of dysfunctional, maladaptive behaviors and emotions. These patterns influence our own self-worth and can influence our ability to form relationships with others. I work to foster a safe environment for you to be able to identify and process through your emotions and make changes in the way you cope with those emotions. Creating this clear understanding can help to strengthen your relationship with your inner self, and to better communicate with others to manage relational conflict.

I support clients with a wide variety of concerns including relationship issues, grief and loss, anxiety disorders, LGBTQ sexual identity and orientation, self-esteem, PTSD, depression, family concerns, and other life changes and stressors. I utilize various modalities of therapy including psychodynamic, CBT and solution-focused/skill building therapies. I work with individual adults, children, teens, families, and couples, as well as adults with developmental disabilities and delays.

I am a Licensed Associate Social Worker & Independent Clinician in Washington State. I am experienced in working with adults who are struggling with anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions.

I work with individuals aged 13 and up who are struggling with anxiety, depression, psychosis, personality disorders, chronic health conditions, grief and loss, and suicidality. I seek to help people who are dealing with these issues create a place of peace and safety within themselves so that they might learn to love life and endure loss.

I will actively use my training and experience to help you meet your needs & goals. Successful treatment is a direct result of mutual efforts, honesty, respect, and collaboration. Life is full of transitions. Many transitions require skill to navigate. Some happen easily and others require thought, planning and occasionally outside help. I regularly help people manage depression, anxiety, life & work transitions, relationship problems, the processing of and recovery from trauma, and developmental issues throughout the lifespan.
