Therapists in Gig Harbor, WA

Currently accepting new patients, Saturday and evening appointments available. My practice focuses on working with individuals who are processing significant transitions within their lives, particularly those related to developmental processes such as career change, retirement and family care-giving challenges. With an emphasis on creating meaning and exploring new potentials, our work together will help you act intentionally rather than reacting in response to old patterns that may no longer fit the person you are becoming.

I like people and enjoy getting to know and understand them. There are many ways we can get stuck or get weighed down in life issues. It is exciting for me to assist others in finding ways to get on with living. I believe this occurs when a client feels comfortable in the relationship with their therapist. As a therapist, my first task is to provide a safe environment for a person to experience themselves in new ways.

I meet with individuals, couples, families, and run groups. I generally work with folks who complain of depression, anxiety, grief and loss, stress management, anger management, trauma/PTSD, interpersonal conflict, parenting challenges, spiritual challenges, frustration tolerance, and some health challenges to include nicotine addiction. I also provide in-home nursing-aid care, DD respite care, and tutoring. A client is encouraged to boldly explore their own thoughts and emotions in a safe, warm and collaborative therapeutic environment and find new solutions, skills, insight and awareness around life's challenges, both within the person and the persons' life experience

I am accepting new clients throughout WA state for diagnostic assessment, after which I can provide links to medication providers, therapists, or TMS.

When you contact my office, please request an "assessment with Dr. Reynolds" and our staff can assist you with navigating insurance benefits as needed.

Good therapy is based on a good therapeutic relationship. There are no "right" answers; only answers that are right for you. Together, we can focus on how you see the world and how the world sees you, improve communication, and identify self-needs, rediscover your unique gifts and role in life, and create and maintain healthy boundaries.

I believe in empowering people to reach their full potential by providing services that are strengths-based, practical, holistic, and focused on promoting long lasting change. I work using a style of fostering trust and authenticity,starting where people want and ending when people feel their life and issues have changed and their happiness enhanced. I believe the relationship in counseling is the core issue in treatment. This is particularly important in working with children and adolescents where no work could be done without building a warm, honest, and caring connection. I believe healing comes through the mind, body, spirit connection.

Hi, my name is Carla Grace. My therapeutic style is interactive, inclusive and supportive. I facilitate my client's exploration of the root of traumatic events from a nurturing and empowering perspective. I view the healing process as a sacred and vulnerable experience and create a safe and empowering environment for exploration and healing. Initially, I help the client create supportive scaffolding by identifying and implementing healthy effective coping skills and identifying triggers. It is a privilege to walk alongside a person through their healing journey.

We all want to be seen and understood and at the same time are afraid of what we and others will find. We don't trust ourselves or our decisions. We suffer from anxiety, depression, traumas and a myriad of other relational issues. In counseling we learn to understand ourselves and others by telling our stories well. As a greek philosopher once said, "An unexamined life isn't worth living". When we learn to examine ourselves with curiosity, compassion, and truth our life becomes clear hopeful and fullfilling.

A DYNAMIC APPROACH TO INNER CHANGE - By combining conventional therapy with different modalities of working with the subconscious, I offer resources for those situations where you have previously done therapy without feeling much movement or change. Because the subconscious is in control 95% of the time, I offer a different approach to work through issues much faster. My experience has been that it does not need to take a long time to heal if given the right resources. If you desire change and create a more peaceful life, call and we can set up a consultation at no charge or obligation.

Have you ever wondered why certain life patterns have been so hard to turn around? Perhaps you struggle with money problems, feel hopeless, suffer from weight problems, or addictions you can't seem to beat. Psychological and physical ailments such as these, as well as self-doubts, often originate from past events of which you may be unaware. They don't have to remain a mystery-or have power over you anymore! Real lasting change comes not only from an understanding of those events, but from creating corrective emotional experiences that allow you to release those old, unproductive patterns.

As a Transpersonal Psychotherapist, and fundamentally client-centered, I believe in an inherent tendency and ability for people to grow and learn about themselves and the world around them. I also believe each one of us has an inner wisdom to tap into. A client is encouraged to boldly explore their own thoughts and emotions in a safe, warm and collaborative therapeutic environment and find new solutions, skills, insight and awareness around life's challenges, both within the person and the persons' life experience. I meet you where you are at, conforming my therapeutic approach to your presenting needs.

Trauma leaves us feeling broken, ashamed, and disconnected from our true selves. You may be fed up with feeling triggered in everyday situations, isolated from friends who can’t understand, or guilt over what happened to you. It may even feel like this will last forever. Either way, you’re ready for some relief and actual change. You’re ready to enjoy deep relationships without your past getting in the way. You’re ready to rediscover your true self. Most of all, you’re ready to love yourself again & to face your future with a sense of hope.
