Therapists in Seattle, WA

Als deutschsprachige Therapeutin mit über 20 Jahren Erfahrung verstehe ich, dass es für deutschsprachige Klienten schwierig sein kann, in einer fremden Sprache über ihre Gefühle zu sprechen. Deshalb biete ich eine warme und unterstützende Umgebung, in der Sie sich auf Deutsch oder Englisch ausdrücken können. Mein Ansatz zur Therapie ist kollaborativ, das heißt, wir arbeiten zusammen, um Ihre Ziele zu identifizieren und einen Plan zu erstellen, um diese zu erreichen. Ich spezialisiere mich darauf, Menschen zu helfen, die unter Angstzuständen, Depressionen und Beziehungsproblemen leiden.

Have you been feeling detached from your life? Are you ready to feel more connected but unsure how to get there? Perhaps I can be of service. Contact me so that we can start exploring patterns that are no longer serving you. Whether it is learning to sit with uncomfortable emotions, processing grief and loss, or developing tools to handle depression and anxiety, my goal is to support you in your process. I am licensed in both Washington a Oregon and work via Telehealth (virtual counseling). Please know that I currently see clients via secure online portal and do not offer in office sessions.

I work with individuals and couples who are looking to get more out of their lives. Choosing the right therapist for you is important - email, text or call to set up a free consult to see if we're a good match to work through your issues. With couples, I help increase communication and understanding of each other using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman. My areas of focus for individuals include work issues, depression and anxiety, grief, navigating American culture, and sexual issues that get in the way of committed relationships.

Are you going through a major life transition, such as a recent move to Seattle or a change in the status of your -or a loved one's-job, relationship, or health? Major transitions in life, whether seen as positive or negative, can stir up a lot of mixed emotions and bring up old issues from the past. I am experienced in helping people during times of confusion, grief and loss, depression and anxiety, and struggle with old traumatic injuries. I can help you find compassion, open insight, and create value and meaning from this time of transition.

Hi there, I am Vanessa, a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) and certified nutritionist (CN) who works with adult individuals and couples in Washington. I graduated from Bastyr University with a MS in nutrition and a MA in counseling psychology. I utilize an integrative approach and aim to create an honest, open, and supportive environment for us to explore your current concerns and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. My hope is to support you in finding your own personal values and meaning in life, and process hardships you may be facing that challenge your ability to be and feel like your authentic self.

Do you feel like crying and don't know why? Do you feel like there are so many new things in parenthood and it is overwhelming? Are you having a hard time connecting with your newborn and feeling guilty? Pregnancy and postpartum can be a challenging time for mothers and fathers. Depression, anxiety, and OCD are the most common struggles new parents face in the first year after giving birth. I support individuals and couples processing their own trauma, fertility issues, pregnancy loss, complications in pregnancy, birth trauma, NICU experiences, and more. I also offer pregnancy and marriage planning, and ongoing couples therapy.

The gift of meeting ourselves… in life, we sometimes have to endure extreme stress in difficult circumstances, and we are meant to continue to grow by making meaning and increasing the love in our lives. As an Army Veteran, I feel called to serve the veteran community, as well as others with difficult life experiences. My focus areas include trauma and PTSD, emotional imbalances, self-esteem, grief, and transitions. I draw from my spiritual path as well as personal experiences to connect deeply, and to honor each individual’s journey to healing.

Do life's questions take hold of you? Does life itself become questionable? You may struggle to articulate this, let alone discuss it with others. It may seem unspeakable. Yet we need companionship to uncover and address our deepest questions. They cannot be answered bluntly. They have to be lived, and that takes courage, dialogue, and time. I offer attention, patience, and trusting relation as a way to explore your questions and the concerns in which they are rooted.

My people are the ones who were picked on or picked last. I love working with geeks, devs, tech leads, managers, engineers, and scientists. Helping people find sense and meaning in a life filled with mindless meetings, unending emails, and open seating is my calling. I get the people whose fun became work and then the joy was replaced with worries. Whether they are hopefully going to board game meetups to make friends, getting bad reviews from direct reports, or trying to juggle multiple partners, I can help them find a path through the struggle. These are people who want life to be better, but can’t seem to crack the code.

Emotional pain, fear, and problems in life can propel someone into therapy. Distress can feel deep-rooted, and in actuality, often does reflect early, 'ancient' issues. I believe that also in our deepest roots, we may tap into powers of resilience and of amazing, unique selfhood that nourish us in development toward our human potentialities. In courageous exploration of, and work through life's challenges, we can find, and bring to light, marvelous, hard-won gifts of self-actualization, and well-being.

Do you want to master your goals with confidence? Create meaningful and positive relationships? Discover your authentic self while establishing trust with those you know and love? Experience more insight, more productivity, and more balance in your life? These are all attainable with the right set of skills and a mental health professional to support you on your path. In therapy, we will address your goals collaboratively and with compassion.

I work from a holistic, trauma-informed lens and offer a unique combo of talk and somatic therapy. A deeper level of healing can be achieved when we tap into the innate wisdom of the body to cultivate body-mind integration. My somatic approach is informed by yoga therapy, Polyvagal Theory, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. Together we get to know and befriend the nervous system and build new pathways toward connection and safety. My therapeutic yoga offerings support every-body. Clients are empowered to reclaim a greater sense of choice and respect for their bodies as they develop their resiliency.

Are struggling to find a therapist who understands the intersection of race/ethnicity, culture, and sexuality and gender and your mental health? I am an experienced counselor who specializes in understanding and helping you. I identify as a gay, poly, Korean American counselor (he/him).

I graduated from a M.S. mental health counseling program at Eastern Washington University in 1995, got certified and ran a private practice in Seattle from 1995 through 2003. I worked in an outpatient community clinic, an inpatient psychiatric hospital, at retreat centers, and at a college counseling center until starting work on a PhD in Religious Studies and Psychology. I worked, studied, and lived in Europe, East Asia, and Africa before teaching 10 years at San Jose State University, so I am comfortable and confident working with very different sorts of people and I want everyone and anyone to feel welcome and at ease in my care.

I love to work with female, male, and LGBTQ professionals who experienced hurtful childhoods or abusive relationships and struggle to let go of the past, feel "like they are not enough", "have to prove their worth", or "settle for less". I love to help clients understand why they continuously attract "the wrong partner" so they can make different choices, move on from hurtful relationships, and attract more suitable partners. I welcome polyamory, kink, and sex-positivity. I enjoy helping clients get past traumatic experiences so they can feel safe in their bodies again and courageous about taking up space in their lives.
