Family Systems Therapists in Olympic Hills, Seattle, WA

I provide therapeutic services for adults, adolescents and children. I incorporate aspects of applied behavior analysis, cognitive behavioral therapy, psycho-education, and family systems theories. I work with a broad spectrum of people with diverse neurological makeup including but not limited to those diagnosed with developmental disabilities, ADHD, Autism, Depression and Anxiety.

Accepting in-person clients at Mindful Therapy Group's Fremont location on Tuesdays to Fridays. One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your story and how you came be the way you are today. Are you a creative person who feels stuck with the rigid expectations of school or work stressors? Together, we can identify your internal strengths and what motivates you to form a path to healing and anxiety relief.

My training is in systems therapy, which examines the many facets of our lives interact. In therapy, we often look at how surrounding relationships and past experiences effect our current beliefs and values. If emotions and mood are difficult to manage, or there is difficulty adjusting to developmental and life stage changes, I offer support and tools to work through this. These challenges often arise for young adults, new mothers, managing intimate relationships and employment transitions. Too often, grief and loss bring up painful struggles for individuals and families. Therapy can be helpful in these most challenging times.

I provide therapy to people who wish to make lasting positive changes in their lives in a warm, safe environment. I have extensive experience working with people who have loved ones who have completed suicide and/or are working through other complicated grief issues. I am a certified hypnotherapist and EMDR trained for PTSD and trauma. I am experienced helping with self-esteem, personal development, marriage or premarital counseling, depression, anxiety and divorce recovery. Other areas I work with are Crisis Management, Anger Management, Traumas, Adult ADD/ADHD, Sleep Disturbance, Career Counseling, Social Discomfort and cultural issues.

I work with parents and caregivers who are motivated to improve relationships and restore harmony to their lives. Do you wish your kid(s) would just cooperate? Are you tired of yelling, using bribery and/or punishment? Perhaps you've tried one or more of the popular parenting approaches, but without lasting success. Parenting children and adolescents is hard work, but it can also be fun and rewarding. I help parents who love their children, to like their children.

I render counseling services that range from group therapy sessions to couples' sessions. You can also see me for family therapy sessions, individual sessions, intakes, and/or psychoeducation courses for a variety of mental health issues. Just to name a few!

Hi there, How could I be of service to you? Throughout my many lessons taught and learned, I’ve realized that life is a school and earth is a classroom of many lessons. I’ve learned to cooperate with the ebb and flow of life and to co-create with the universe. It is my intention to align with other souls who are in a place within their life in which they aspire to grow and expand within. It's time to make the necessary changes in your life now. Reach out, I promise, you are in safe hands...

Hey there- I hope you and your family are remaining safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. I am an adolescent and adult therapist specializing in ADHD, anxiety, trauma, and adjustment issues. Please take a look at my website and reach out if/when you are ready. https://www.milanotherapy.com/

I believe my job as your therapist is to create a safe place for you to be understood and accepted. Therapy can be a powerful place to create meaning and connection, growth and change. Together we can explore what this looks like for you. I will always offer a warm, empathic listening environment and you will know I authentically care about you and whatever you are facing.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Do you feel stuck, confused, and unsure of your true purpose? Have difficulty communicating with confidence? Have a strong need and/or calling to explore your inner Self and discover who you truly are? Suffer chronic illness or repeated relationship, health, or job problems? Feel uninspired in a job/career that no longer serves you? You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning!

I work with adults who struggle to fit the mold of what's expected for them - by the people in their lives, by dominant cultural narratives, or by their own internal messaging. There are so many stories of who we are "supposed" to be - it can be overwhelming and disheartening to be met with struggle everywhere you turn and to not feel like you're living your most authentic life. While I welcome clients of many different backgrounds, I have particular experience working with clients experiencing chronic illness & pain, anxiety & depression, low self-worth, indecision, and disconnection from others.

We believe there is rich cultural, spiritual, and experiential wisdom within individuals, couples, families and communities and seek to promote a sense of empowerment for our clients. We see each person as possessing agency, deep wisdom, and inner resources for healing. We work to provide tools to help clients reconnect, restore, rebuild and develop further capacities for growth, healing and harmony within themselves and their relationships. We value the time, investment and labor of our clients and our team, believing in the power of mutuality and that wellness is collaborative.

I offer individual and group grief counseling to grievers. As a suicide-bereaved mother myself, I offer traumatic grief counseling to parents and other grievers. Because child loss can be so isolating, bereaved parents often find companionship in a group to be a comfort on this difficult lifelong path. While religious/spiritual notions can be a support, often they are not. As people of conscience, we can lean into what comforts and release what is no longer helpful; sometimes clients grapple with their changing beliefs in sessions. Traumatic grief often leads to changes in beliefs and I companion that exploration. I am a humanist.

I have been practicing as a mental health counselor for nearly 20 years, serving as a mental health counselor, counseling center director, and teaching college-level human development courses. I have also served as a domestic violence advocate and instructor within the Department of Corrections. I have expertise in not only addressing mental health concerns, such as depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, parenting, and managing stress, but also helping people with college and career success, career exploration, and decision making, whether it's the beginning of your career or your next career opportunity.

The best way to check me out is to peruse my website (www.drcat.org). If you'd like a "Cliff Notes" version of my style as a therapist, here it is: I believe that YOU are the first, last, and final authority about what is right for you. My job is to help you access and trust your own knowing and help you have the best time possible while doing your work.

Whether you are struggling emotionally, spiritually, or in relationships, with God’s help through Christian counseling, you can experience meaningful change. I offer a compassionate, faith-based approach to help you overcome challenges and achieve mental, physical, and spiritual wellness. If you’re dealing with symptoms related to anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, abandonment, relationship problems, grief, or other concerns, I would be honored to walk with you. Through guided, professional support, my hope is for you to find balance, peace, and strength in Christ.

Are you struggling with daily tasks? Do you want more out of your relationships? Does it feel as though your heart is heavy? Struggles like this can require a helping hand and therapy can be the step you need. Therapy has the potential to empower and guide growth to overcome the challenges that life brings. It has the ability to bridge tough conversations, acknowledge the impact that the greater society has on us and unpack the emotions that feel unexplainable. Soon that checklist can feel smaller, relationships feel more fulfilling and that weight a bit lighter.

No one has the blueprint for this becoming. Maybe life is overwhelming, you are struggling to start and finish tasks, or thinking you are not good enough. You notice that you are thinking is negative, you feel stressed often, have difficulty concentrating or focusing, and are not sure how to take the first steps to feel better. Maybe these challenges are impacting your well-being, relationships, work, or school. I provide therapy to empower my clients to tackle life with confidence. Clients see me to feel supported in their journey, learn new skills and tools, and tackle life with confidence.

I help individuals create meaningful change in their lives by providing the relationship, container, and opportunities for clients to heal through trauma, anxiety, and depression. In doing so clients are able to live more full, authentic, and genuine lives free from the past and grounded in the present. I enjoy working with adults who are dealing with or have experienced trauma, loss, oppression (internal and external), sexual identity, anxiety, and depression.
