Therapists in Washington

Hi there! I specialize in helping people navigate the dark difficult edges of life. Darkness might express itself as depression, anxiety, persistent grief, a sense of isolation, suicidal thoughts, a feeling of being stuck, or... a whole mess of things unique to you. ​In therapy, we work together to build a container that can hold the inevitable fear that comes with exploring dark edges, and the rejected, heavy parts of ourselves that seem to keep getting in our way. It turns out, witnessing and caring for these troubled parts of ourselves, opens up possibility for deep joy, curiosity, emotional courage and life shifting compassion.

I am an integrative and culturally sensitive driven therapist who works with teens and adults to unlearn systemic inequalities and process intergenerational trauma, grief, and anxiety, so you can confidently befriend your feelings, navigate life transitions, step into authenticity, and feel more at home in yourself. Often times when we are going through something difficult, it can be hard to see our way out. This may lead to spiraling thoughts, a lost sense of security & safety, thinking "I'm not good enough", consistently feeling on edge, and feeling disconnected from ourselves and others.

Carrying the weight of anxiety, grief, disconnection from those around you, maybe even from yourself, can be overwhelming at times. It can be difficult to navigate these things alone. I believe in the power of the therapeutic, client-focused relationship as a catalyst for exploration and healing. My work with clients focuses on guiding people as they process life transitions, challenges and new opportunities. I walk alongside you in making a shift in your mindset to a place aligned with your core values and truth. I maintain a holistic perspective integrating mind, body, and spirit to empower every client in reaching his/her goals.

Engaging in therapy is an act of bravery and self-love. I have immediate in person, telehealth, & weekend availability. I offer a safe and sex positive place where you will feel seen and heard. My approach is collaborative, non-judgmental and gently direct. I work with clients who may be healing from trauma, experiencing grief and loss, exploring their identity, or grappling with anxiety. I tailor each session to the unique needs of my clients. If you suffer from awful panic attacks, I'll give you strategies to tolerate and manage them so you can stop canceling plans at the last minute and gain control over your anxiety

Are you interested in living an authentic life and being true to the visions and callings of your heart? Sometimes that's not easy when unhealthy learned patterns and/or limiting or negative beliefs get in the way. Our work together can be a catalyst which calls out your inner strengths and resources providing the ultimate guidance to experiencing more happiness and contentment. Life doesn't move in a straight line, instead the path twists and turns providing obstacles and hurdles. It's these challenges that present a doorway to living a more authentic life. You are not alone.

If you are here that means you are probably seeking support for something in your life that feels difficult, overwhelming, confusing, or painful. My work is to offer you a safe, kind, and accepting space for you to further explore your internal and external realities. Together we will be curious about your unique life experience, the impact of your experience, the struggles and conflicts you may be facing, and what you need to thrive. I believe therapy is the process of uncovering who you were meant to be before the world told you who you should be and wounded you with its expectations and cruelty.

You are likely seeking relief and clarity to thoughts, behaviors, and feelings that are not working for you. Simply put, something is stuck. I work with people to transform painful and frustrating experiences. For some, this looks like grief work. Others explore relationship struggles. I work with clients to bring awareness to their body, mind, and spirit to assist them in growing a deeper sense of their stories and desires. My ultimate goal is that you will have a growing sense of what it means for you to engage your world with a deepening sense of aliveness.

Do you wish to develop a deeper relationship and connection with your body, breath, and your emotions? I can be a guide and support in your development. Whether you are struggling with fear, loss, grief, anger, trauma, relationship or other issues, a good portion of our exploration together will be internally focused on your felt experience. Deep wisdom and resources reside within you, and we follow together your curiosity about your own experiences. With a conscious presence, usually a slower pace than we are accustomed to, we can begin to explore and understand the meaning of these experiences.

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.

Hello! My name is Tammy Ferguson and I have been a psychotherapist for over twenty years. I am passionate about helping people heal and grow. I believe when we are given the proper "container" or safe space, we are more likely to be able to access our inner knowing that can potentially lead to deep healing. I like to work with individuals who are wanting help navigating relationship issues, life transitions, grief, and/or trauma. In addition, I work with people who are dealing with spiritual issues such as religious trauma, deconstruction of faith, deconversion an/or spiritual abuse.

At its core, I believe therapy to be about creating space for change. People come to therapy for a variety of reasons—seeking support and healing, desiring change, looking for relief from pain. With a relational and trauma-informed lens, we’ll look at how you landed here, in an effort to find new ways of being that may be kinder to yourself and more congruent with a whole and healthy life. I work with teens, adults, and couples on issues of trauma, anxiety, grief, relationships, life transitions, and identity formation. I have focused much of my work supporting women recovering from trauma.

Have you been feeling stuck and overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, grief or trauma? Maybe you're feeling depleted and disconnected from life and yourself. Whether you're grappling with painful experiences or burdened by the stress of it all, you don't have to face it alone. Therapy can be a guiding light back to peace and greater well-being. With dedication and the right kind of support, change and relief are possible.

Therapy is a messy, beautiful adventure of healing, growth, and self-discovery. My greatest desire is to empower you to use life’s challenges to discover your inner strength, wisdom, and sense of purpose. I am passionate about working with people seeking transformative growth and meaning in life. I specialize in supporting adults healing through trauma (esp. childhood/complex trauma); grief; life transitions (e.g. midlife crisis, end of life); and topics related to spirituality such as psychedelic integration, spiritual emergency/awakening, and near-death experiences.

I specialize in grief and loss, medical trauma, PTSD, anxiety and shame issues. I have over 22 years experience working in both the mental health field as well as hospice and palliative medicine. My work with clients is marked by curiosity and compassion. I believe that grief is something that cannot be fixed, but it can be navigated and supported. I serve my clients by providing education, empathetic listening, and strategies for coping with grief. If there are elements of trauma within one's experience, I use Lifespan Integration as a means help the brain rewire so that the triggers are no longer too activating.

You're pretty much a survival-mode expert. You take pride in your robust ability to show up and take care of the shitty parts of life. You've managed and masked well until now. Suddenly your quirks have become magnified, old wounds re-triggered, and the shame and blame intensified; you can't hold it together much longer. Time’s passed and your ability to cope has too - only secretly.  You’ve got no one left to talk to because you’ve convinced everyone you’re “fine”.  You find yourself escaping to the bathroom to cry because you feel so overwhelmed. You're lost, stuck, sad, and lonely. You wonder how to take any kind of action...
