Jewish Therapists in King County, WA

Hi. I'm Anna. I work with many different kinds of people, but I specialize in working with queer, trans, Jewish, and neurodivergent clients especially, as well as those who have experienced trauma. I currently have availability, so please reach out. I especially enjoy working with people who are seeking to understand themselves more deeply or who are struggling with their identity or the roles in their life. My approach incorporates all of your experiences, both recent and in the deeper past. During our work together I will encourage you to follow your thoughts and feelings wherever they may lead.

I moved to Seattle in 2017 after spending the previous ten years on the East Coast in New York City and Washington, DC. I grew up in Omaha, Nebraska as a Jewish gay kid who always felt “out of place” in a community where these identities were largely invisible. I also lost my mother to cancer at the tender age of 16 while attempting to accept my gay identity. As a therapist, these experiences have helped me develop resiliency and to better understand how oppressive systems can create feelings of loneliness, isolation, despair, and hopelessness.

Are you seeking your truth? Feeling stuck? Do you want a therapist who really gets you? Or perhaps you are part of a relationship or polycule, seeking to work on your communication in a non-judgemental environment. I am an art therapist and counselor working with individual adults and relationships from a person-centered lense. I am an artist and a DJ. I am a queer, anti-Zionist, Jewish trans woman. I know how important it can be to have a therapist with lived experience off the beaten path. I support people in the process of living their truths, creating the life and relationships that are genuine to them.

Hi! My name is Ruth, she/they and I identify as a jewish, queer, latinx individual. I specialize in LGBTQ+ issues, adolescents and children, family issues, anxiety, depression, OCD, behavioral issues, addiction issues, and have experience with neurodivergent individuals on the autism spectrum. My therapeutic approach is very client-centered. I enjoy meeting people where they are at and finding out what areas of their lives they would like to grow in. Being in therapy for the first time or for the hundredth time can be a challenge. My goal is to alleviate that challenge and help people become the best version of themselves.

It's been my honor to work for the last decade with people struggling with eating disorders, and I'm passionate about exploring the expansive possibilities of healing. Recovery is "non-linear," so each person's process has its own complexities, timing, and map. But many courageous people have gone before in this process, so that we have an ever-deepening understanding of how to achieve lasting freedom from EDs. I offer ED care to adolescents age 13+ using the FBT model and to adults of all ages using an integrative approach. I also specialize in working with chronic illness, disability, and Jewish teens and adults.

Are you finding yourself burnt out? Feeling stuck, isolated, or traumatized by current or historical events? We feel the pressure to better this world, but struggle with feelings of hopelessness and powerlessness. At times like these it is vital to reclaim spaces of joy, safety, and connection within ourselves and the world around us. I am a queer, Jewish, immigrant with firsthand experience of needing to reclaim self within larger narratives of oppression and isolation. I know that this process can often involve navigating trauma and grief. None of us can do this alone.

During our work together, we will be doing just that - working together! In our sessions I'll help you to identify what you (and your partner, if couples therapy) would like to see improved and how you visualize yourself, your relationship, and really your life by the end of therapy. From there I help you to recognize patterns, beliefs, and behaviors that may be keeping you stuck. My approach to helping you in this process is through a ‘person-centered’ therapeutic lens, as I trust that you are the expert in your life and that I am here to help you to understand your potential for positive change and to help facilitate that change.

I meet clients who may feel mistrustful and hesitant about seeking mental health services for valid reasons with a trauma informed approach that is collaborative and respectful of their identity.

Current openings! Many people think their problems aren't bad enough to seek help and continue suffering in the status quo - but if you're reading this, you must be getting exhausted! You might be wondering why you have such big reactions to minor inconveniences, or why things seem to come easy for everyone else. You've probably tried all the "self care" and are frustrated that you're still struggling. I have a particular interest in working with late or self diagnosed neurodivergent women and chronic illness sufferers. If your anxiety or pain is increasing, or you just have a sense that things are "off," maybe I can help!

I am a relationship and sex therapist who works with couples, groups, and individuals. I offer therapy in person in Seward Park, and online. My goal is to create an warm environment that centers your unique lived experience - you are the expert of your life. I hope to support your goals for therapy such as increasing connection, intimacy, knowledge of self, acceptance, growth, and healing. I work with all gender, sexual, romantic and relationship identities. I am sex positive and HAES-aligned.

Accepting new clients in late May 2024. I help women "grow the good" and specialize in serving mothers, special needs parents, and those who work in the caregiving professions. My behavioral health services might be a good fit if you're seeking nonjudgmental emotional support while strengthening coping skills and connecting (in ways that work for you) with the natural world.

Accepting New Clients with weekly availability! I offer therapy that is compassionate, non-judgemental, and accepting of who you are and what you are carrying in the present moment. My work is creating a warm environment to explore different layers and parts of yourself, interpersonal relationships, goals and desires, as well as body-based mindfulness practices to process emotions in other ways besides talking. As a queer therapist centered in liberation frameworks, advocacy, and justice, I recognize how systemic oppression effects our mental health.

Hello! Adulting can be really overwhelming sometimes. I work with clients during various transitions in their lives who are dealing with challenges in their relationships, the road to parenthood, as well as grief and loss. These are not easy stages of life – working through differences with a partner; challenges with fertility, pregnancy, or the highs and lows of parenting; or adjusting to the loss of a loved one.

Do you feel like an outsider? Do you want to feel secure letting someone else help carry your worries? Are you ready for help with organizing the slurry of overwhelm, burnout, shame, trauma, bullying, stress overload, or anger? Many of us - myself included - aren't inherently good at knowing "how to human," and many of us weren't taught how to feel safe with our emotions - big or small. Let's work together to tackle the hard stuff in a validating and warm environment with no judgement.

Traverse Therapy is currently open to new clients! My name is Alexandra. Taking the initiative to seek a therapist is an excellent way to support your mental health. We all experience times when we could use some extra care, whether it's dealing with social anxiety, relationship struggles, life transitions, or feeling stuck. My therapeutic interventions are rooted in strengths-based and trauma-informed care, and my goal is to empower my clients to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives by equipping them with the necessary skills and support to overcome their challenges.

Bring gritty emotional honesty, a kind, sharp eye for themes in your life and your sense of humor. We'll work to understand nuances of your unique situation, utilize insights from your relationship history and symptoms and experiment with patterns that hold you back. I love to help mid-life adults with life transitions. My French Bulldog joins us! (We are both GLBTQ+ friendly.) Most people get stuck analyzing problems and are slow to take action OR they leap to action before gaining insight. I'll help you strike the right balance, so you create lasting change.

It takes a lot of courage to begin therapy. That is why I use a warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative approach. I hope to create a safe therapeutic space to help you feel supported while you take steps towards desired change so you can live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. I believe in the profound impact of relationships and connection on our lives. Yet, when things aren’t going well in this area it can be all-consuming. Specializing in working with both individuals and couples, I address issues like anxiety, perfectionism, and burnout, and work to enhance intimacy and satisfaction in relationships.

People often say (and studies show) the most healing aspect of therapy is feeling heard and understood by the therapist. I work with adults and teens seeking support, clarity, calm, and insight navigating the stresses, fears, and uncertainty of life. In sessions clients often say they feel understood and more clear about how to proceed. My intent is to provide a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space for you to process what is going right and what areas you need to change or see things differently in your life. Therapy with me is insightful, mindfulness-based, and helps you move forward in your life.

I strive to provide compassionate care to anyone who wishes to be in therapy. Everyone is deserving of care and support throughout their lives, and I want to be a part of your support system. I enjoy working with people from all different backgrounds, individuals, and couples, but as a queer person, I particularly enjoy working with queer people. I look at the world through the lens of intersectional feminism as well as anti-racism and queer theory, which is reflected in my therapeutic practice. I am in the process of earning my certificate in Gender Affirming Care in order to provide the best care that I can for all of my clients.
