Teletherapy for 98103

I am a believer in the power of therapy for everyone. We all need a safe place to vent, feel validated in our experiences and be able to process the difficult parts of life. I have been working as a counselor for over 8 years and have found that through humor, collaboration and understanding- we can make incredible leaps towards healing and becoming our best selves. I look forward to guiding you along this journey.

Navigating Relationships can be a difficult process that requires guidance and support. When our relationships are struggling and we are feeling let down by our partner or friends, it can take a toll on our mental health. It is my desire as your therapist to offer guidance and support to help you find ways to help your relationships grow and become more fulfilling. It is my passion to help and empower others to extend the same love and empathy they would towards others onto themselves. We all need reminders that our needs are just as important as others, and it is my goal to support you in that practice.

Are you unable to shake anxious or depressed feelings? Are your personal relationships less than ideal? Would you like to be happier? Sometimes it's difficult for us to see the patterns that keep us stuck. I will listen with compassion and acceptance, and together we will unravel your experiences and make sense of your story. Using talk therapy and newer, innovative therapies it is possible to let go of thinking and behavior patterns that keep you from feeling joy. It's time to start enjoying your life.

I have been a child and family therapist since 2009, and volunteered in the field of grief and loss for 14 years, working with grieving children (ages 3 to 18) who lost a loved one. I'm client-centered and strengths-based, and believe my job is to try to understand how my client's brain works, to best assist each individual understand her/ himself. I have learned from the last 9 years working with a wide variety of amazing individuals that I must be very creative and flexible. I'm grateful for how much I have and continue to learn from my clients.

Hello! Welcome to therapy. I’m Madeleine. If you are seeking therapy, you may be struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, family/relationship issues, or perhaps you just need someone to talk to without fear of being judged. I use a collaborative approach and believe that you are the expert in your own life. We will work together to identify any patterns of behavior that you feel are interfering with your life, discuss the ways your family, environment, and society may be reinforcing these, and develop the skills to alter or cope with these patterns more effectively.

I work with families, adults, and children with a primary goal: to experience meaningful relationships and fully participate in their families, schools, and communities. We offer a personalized, neuroaffirming service plan for each individual and specialize in social and emotional growth.

The current focus is on time-effective cognitive-behavioral, psychosomatic and depth psychology approaches individually tailored for each patient.

It takes courage to ask for help. Life seems to throw us one challenge after another and we can feel weighed down by the stress of daily living. Sometimes we can lose sight of what makes us feel special and valued. I am here to work with your individual needs. Feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, and loneliness can leave us feeling disconnected from others. If we do not take the time to understand where these feelings stem from and how they affect us, we cannot begin to heal and feel whole again. I value you as an individual and want to understand your unique experiences. I want to help you to feel safe and accepted at all times.

My name is Em Purington (they/them), the therapist behind Phenomenal Play PLLC. Whatever brings you to therapy, I am honored to hold space for you and explore your world with you. I love working with clients of all ages. Together, we will develop a strengths-based plan based on specific needs, goals, strengths, and abilities. I want my clients to feel empowered and in control of what we work on.
