Therapists in Washington

Now accepting new clients! Hello! I'm Dr. Kristen Moore (nee Bradley). My focus is on adult clients who have anxiety, depression, trauma, or PTSD. I strive to create a supportive environment and work with you to come up with a plan that addresses your concerns where you are right now. I believe everyone has strengths and that sometimes people become so overwhelmed they lose sight of themselves. I'm a guide that helps you find your way back and encourages you to keep moving forward. If you experience insomnia, nightmares, flashbacks, fatigue, sudden anger, anxiety or depression and feel it is time to get control back, call me.

I will assist you in processing traumatic memories, depression, anxiety, anger.

As human being, I know that life situations could be difficult to manage by our own. However, past traumas, bad relationships (toxic/domestic abuse), stress, divorces, financial struggles, mental health disorders, depression, grieves...DON"T have to determine our life moving forward. IT IS POSSIBLE to recover from those big stones that we find in our life path! I love to work with my clients from a healing/recovery perspective and none judgmental attitude to help them get a better quality of life.

Negative self talk has become part of your routine. You feel overwhelmed and when life is unexpected or conflict arises, your mind spirals. You are flooded with emotion, experiencing anger, anxiety, depression and you are ready to stop holding things in and open up in a safe space to be heard. You are struggling to start this journey, yet you are wanting to take that first step. I have created a space for you.

I love my job! I am user-friendly in your difficult time. I specialize in clients experiencing trauma disorders and symptoms related to trauma, including substance use issues. I invest in the sacred trust relationship between client and therapist and provide a non-judgemental, caring, empathetic, safe place where I believe all my clients are capable of solving their own wellness issues by utilizing the tools and experience I bring to them to assist them in building their own solutions. I understand each client is doing the best they can with the tools they have and truly wants to improve their quality of life.

My approach to counseling involves the use of a wide variety of therapeutic techniques. I practice a wellness-oriented systems model (the whole life) of counseling/therapy with emphasis upon effective learning in life experiences and human growth and development.

Life is a beautiful thing until one day you wake up to a nightmare. Feeling anger, anxious, betrayal, broken, defeated, loss, pain, or overwhelmed; unsure how to express your emotions or continue to live. Tired of hearing you are strong when in all actuality you feel yourself suffocating. I have been there and it is valid if you are too. A wise man once told me attack life's trials one nano second at a time and allow no one to take you out of your happy bubble. It's not the misery we face but the steps we take to overcoming those adversities to embrace your greatness. Healing is forever time to be free ReNana Your HeArt with me!

I work from an object relations perspective and draw from a variety of therapies including but not limited to narrative, solution-focused, experiential, and cognitive-behavioral. I work with individuals, couples, and families to decisively identify and treat anxiety disorders, codependency, depression, grief and loss, and marital/other relational issues. I welcome any questions you have about my counseling approach and plan for achieving your desired outcomes. To maximize our time in-session, I often give assignments between sessions such as keeping logs of certain thoughts or behaviors, relevant reading, and skills practice.

The ultimate goal at Harmony in Tranquility: Counseling for the Soul, is to support individuals and families in building healthier and happier lives. Starting internally, creating further external success and happiness. My expertise includes individual, family, and couple's therapy (to include child and adolescent treatment). I believe in the utmost respect of individuals and emphasize the importance of dignity and worth within each person.

Does life feel like your stuck in the muck? Is someone you love acting angry, sad, overwhelmed, or anxious? ​ Sometimes the solution needs more than words...it needs to get to the heart of the matter. Equine facilitated methods are restorative, trauma-informed solutions that bring the heart and the head into balance for life-changing permanent shifts. NW Hearts United's unique EFMHL Programs helps create inner strength, peace and focus. People struggling to cope and thrive are often carrying deep pain, anxiety or anger they don’t understand and can’t explain.

My practice is currently full. I help adults increase a sense of stability and resource in times of shift and change. I offer a safe place for you to bring your experience of anxiety, depression, anger, or your struggles with recovery. I work from the perspective that in order to connect with inherent strength and resilience, you don't have to edit or bypass what you're feeling. It's not one or the other. In addition to my work with individuals, I help couples who are struggling find new ways to connect and live with greater ease and joy.

My ideal client is someone who is courageous enough to seek services, and committed enough to follow through with their established counseling treatment plan needs. Someone who truly desires to get better, and who is willing to put in the work to achieve their goals.

Our subconscious mind holds the memories and perceptions of every experience from childhood to adulthood. As we continue our journey, the unresolved past continues to affect our bodies negatively and influence our thoughts, behaviors, and everyday life on an unconscious level. We may not understand why we feel or react as we do to certain situations or why the same patterns show up every time and unexplained symptoms and circumstances keep repeating themselves. Often this prevents us from moving forward with our lives, achieving clarity and authenticity.

My focus is on the struggling families, providing support and encouragement in reframing the family dynamic, bringing into play the family history and what brought the client to where they are at today; focusing on moving beyond the moment, improving the future. I work primarily with the Department of Developmental Disabilities and custody dispute cases providing Parent Education, Counseling, Anger Management, and Behavioral Support Services for youth.

I've worked with a wide range of age groups, ages 8 and up, from different paths of life and backgrounds. I'm experienced in working through clients' trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, anger, and grief. I enjoy helping clients to overcome challenges and meet their goals at their time and pace. I'm a culturally competent and trauma-informed clinician who is able to provide mindful and conscious practice for the client's needs.

Often, when we feel blocked by experiencing overwhelming negative thoughts and emotions, it can make one feel trapped with no way out. Anger, frustration, sadness and worry can easily pound down confidence and push away people we care about in our lives. My passion is helping you break free from what I call the "dictatorship" of anxiety, anger, depression, past hurts, and work with you to find your personal strength to start living your life on your terms and strengthen connections with others.

I am a solution-focused therapist with 10 years' experience working with Individuals, Couples, Children/Teens & Families. My initial objective is to stabilize whatever situation has led you to seek support. Once in a position of secure functioning, we will identify, understand, and resolve the underlying issues & barriers inhibiting your goals & objectives. I treat clients at all levels; from intensive, in-depth analysis to building parenting, family or relationship skills. My expertise includes all manner of clients, including Service Members and their Families (TBI, PTSD), Individuals, and all Couples. I have experience supporting children with disabilities (ADHD, Autism).

Now accepting NEW clients! Individuals and couples need to discover new ways of dealing with life's stressors. Working from a family systems and trauma focused perspective, clients explore healthier ways of interacting with themselves, friends, family, and work associates. Change occurs when people recognize their relationship patterns. This allows people to improve communications and interpersonal connections. Having worked extensively with Amazon.com, Microsoft, and Google employees and executives from other high tech or start up companies, I help people manage work expectations and develop a healthy home life.

I work with teens and adults who are in search of relief from stress, anxiety, panic, anger, low-self-esteem, depression, and relationship issues such as codependency. In my practice, I recognize that being human is complex. Big and small traumas can hold someone back from taking care of themselves, seeing their potential, forming meaningful relationships, taking aligned risks, and living an authentic life. If you are interested in getting to the root of lifelong patterns and emotional triggers that are keeping you from living your best life, then I would love to join you on your healing journey.
