Hello, I am Jennifer R. Trefonas, MS, LMHC, MHP. I was initially licensed in FL in 1992, moved to WA 2002; licensed WA 2001.

I wish to serve people of color and other marginalized groups who have experienced chronic oppression and injustices. I would love to work with individuals, couples and families who are ready to step into their power and reclaim their voice. I wish to serve those who are in need of healing and need assistance processing grief, loss, frustration and exhaustion from life's trials and adversities.

I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with master’s of science degree in marriage and family therapy. I am passionate about helping individuals and families with issues in all walks of life. I feel privileged to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families in their struggles, and I find joy in their transformations.

I use holistic approach in my clinical work and perceive an individual’s issues in bio-psycho-social-spiritual model.

As a therapist who specializes in the treatment of both mental health and substance use disorders, my approach centers around the strengths of the client while holding paramount the client's aspirations, needs, and goals. I believe in working collaboratively with clients to identify the issues they deem most important. Please visit my website for more details: www.andrewtherapy.com.

Are you or a family member struggling with depression, anxiety or adjusting to a life change? Recognizing that you or someone in your family might need counseling can lead to feelings of overwhelm, confusion, shame, guilt, and fear. As a client-centered therapist, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental approach in which you can feel safe to begin the healing journey.

Whether your present life feels unmanageable, or past hurtful experiences are still causing you pain, there is hope. Reaching out for help is the first step to making positive changes in your life. As a therapist, my goal is to provide you with a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space in which you can share, explore, and achieve greater self-awareness. Together, we will build on the strengths you already possess to help you grow and find balance. My style of therapy is a conversational, collaborative approach aimed at helping people understand themselves better.

Ever think: "How did I end up here?" or "I never imagined {life event} would happen to me!" You are not alone! We can all relate to these sentiments. Most people do not end up in therapy because circumstances are unicorns and rainbows. Are you struggling with loss, or making meaning out of events that have left you feeling uncertain, shaken, in agony? Do you feel like you are starring in a scene from the film Ground Hog Day, where life is a series of frustrating, repeating events? You can make a successful transition to break this cycle, whatever that personal change is. You will get a sense of control back. A little Zen. Some hope.

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.

Are you feeling "stuck", disconnected, or having trouble with stressors in your life? When we are stuck it changes the way we think about ourselves and how we view the world around us. This leads to disconnection to those around us. Every person experiences blind spots in the narrative they tell themselves, this creates challenges in our relationships with our "favorite people." I invite you, your partner, or children a safe space to reconnect with yourself and / or those around you. Together we will work collaboratively to develop strategies that promote healing, resilience, and personal growth which will increase peace in life.

Take that first step, reach out to me today.

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!

Welcome! As a mental health counselor I provide a secure environment where you can address whatever is keeping you from living a balanced and enjoyable life. We will work together to identify goals, discover strengths, develop skills, and create realistic solutions. My therapeutic focus is around anxiety, depression, conflict, grief, body image, and communication. I blend elements from many techniques to fit the unique needs of each client.

Identifying unprocessed trauma is crucial in treating common to severe mental health issues. Trauma runs on a spectrum from minor to major events and is only relevant to the person who experienced it. What may be disturbing to one individual may not be to the next and vice versa. Trauma can be contagious and impact those around you. Everyone experiences adversity in their lifetime; while there are many wonderful evidence based methods I will use for recovery I find EMDR to be most effective with significantly faster results while being the least invasive.
