Teletherapy for Washington

Our lives are shaped by the stories that we carry with us. Healing begins when we can safely share them with others. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process in which we get to recontextualize those stories through truthful and empowering reframes. Therapy is best done when we can show up authentically. The therapeutic relationship is arguably one of the most important factors that determine success in therapy. For that reason, I strive to create a space where there is mutual respect, trust, and authenticity.

No one is broken. What does it mean to be you? What are your heart’s secret longings? What are the heavy parts you carry in your body and the hopes that you have yet to speak aloud? Healing is not linear. Let us explore the winding path that is you: in the memories of your past, in your experience of the present, and in the possibilities of the future. I am a transgender-identified therapist who specializes in work with LGBTQ+ people and their loved ones. In addition, I work with trauma survivors, people who have experienced othering, and people in life transitions.

As a human who is part of the LGBTQ and neurodivergent community, I dedicate myself to providing a safe, relatable space, to sit with our vulnerabilities, engage in real communication and experience positive growth. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts, communication struggles, self-esteem concerns, and so much more, I would love the opportunity to work with you.

I offer Individual, Couples & Relationship, and Children & Family Therapy in my practice. My work with you will be centered on supporting you in understanding your experiences and setting meaningful goals that feel right for your life. I am honored to be invited into a healing space with individuals, couples, and families. I know that the act of living is beautiful, difficult, amazing, and complicated. We will sit together in the difficult realities, the illuminating ‘ah-ha’ moments, and through the seasons of what it is to be alive. Come as you are and know I will show up as your advocate and collaborator in therapy.

Do you feel like you have to hide parts of yourself or wish parts would go away? Do you struggle to show up as your authentic self? Are you feeling resentful, lonely, and struggling to connect with loved ones? Are you feeling stuck and overwhelmed? Are your relationships nurturing or have life circumstances left those connections feeling stagnant? I have a direct and compassionate approach working with you so the therapeutic plan will reflect you as a whole person. Our holistic treatment plan will include honoring the client’s racial, gender, sexual, and spiritual identities.

For the last 8 years, I have worked with trans, nonbinary, and gender-questioning adolescents, adults, and their families. I work with folks who are seeking support around gender feelings, gender dysphoria, gender-related trauma, navigating the many aspects of social and medical transition, or are simply wanting mental health support (for anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, etc.) without the added stress of explaining or educating on trans and nonbinary-ness.

Are you going through a difficult time? Struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or needing support while you take steps toward the life you want to live? Then you've come to the right place. I lean toward a collaborative, person-centered, and strengths-based approach. You are the expert in your life and I am here to help you on your journey.

I believe we all are born with the capacity to live full and rewarding lives. In life's many challenges we sometimes can get to a place where we feel overwhelmed or "stuck". Counseling can help get you back on track with facing those challenges and creating the life you want. I can provide a unique safe space to explore your difficult feelings and experiences. That space has the power to be tremendously healing--and within it, I can help you discover new ways of relating to your thoughts, your feelings and the world around you.

Welcome to my practice. I am a clinical social worker and have worked in the mental health field for 18 years. Anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, feeling stuck and wanting to shift patterns are all common reasons people may contact me for therapy. I frequently work with clients to understand their inner world, how their environment has shaped them and to make steps towards healing and long lasting change.

I work with adolescents and adults with challenges, such as self-esteem, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, sexuality, identity, and more. I consider your culture, identity, and worldview in every counseling session. Meeting you where you are currently in life is vital in building a therapeutic alliance. My goal is to create a therapeutic environment that provides unconditional support for you to feel heard in a non-judgmental approach. You are the expert in your journey to healing. Therefore, I trust that you will lead me to the most challenging areas of life.

I embrace all walks of life, and view each story as valid and important. In no way do I have a specific mold I follow, or a mold I want a client to fit in. My process is fluid and dynamic, and it is critical that I have a collaborative relationship with each person I work with.

Being alive in a complex and unknown world is difficult, as humans we are daily managing our emotions, instincts, desires, frustrations, confusions, and joys. This is no simple task, and difficult to do alone. That is where the work of psychotherapy comes in to provide a path forward. By creating a space of acceptance, presence, and honesty together we can move towards building more security and freedom to live and enjoy life.

I am a therapist who enjoys working with couples, individuals, and youth ages 11-17 . Marginalized folx are my specialty: Queer / GNC / Neurodivergent, POC. My goal is to help you find a better understanding of who you are and who you want to become and then together we will chart a path forward. When I work with couples, I consider your relationship the client. My couples therapy work is from an emotionally focused, trauma informed, and attachment style lens. With all of my clients I find it helpful to examine how your historical and present contexts impact your relationship with yourself and others.

I work with a wide variety of folks who are experiencing mental health, trauma, family, and life related stressors. With experience supporting children ages 3 and up, teens, adults, and families I aim to provide holistic services meeting folks where they are at in their journey. My work includes providing affirming services for LGBTQ+ and Non-monogamous folks. I am skilled at providing services for neurodivergent (ADHD/Autistic) folks aimed at increasing self-understanding and coping with the stressors of the outside world.

I specialize in working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, and mood dysregulation. My primary treatment modality is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT therapy). I have been trained in and have utilized CBT and DBT, so I draw skills and approaches from those modalities. One of my biggest strengths as a therapist is providing a safe, nonjudgmental, caring space. Shame is at the root of so many of our struggles. Having a safe, loving space is paramount for an individual to work through their shame. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and provide gender-affirming care. Beware of feeling stuck or trapped. I am here to help.

I am accepting new clients! My name is Em Rose (they/them). As a queer, trans, multiracial therapist, I bring an intersectional perspective to my practice. I am dedicated to providing affirming and inclusive therapy for teens and adults who experience depression, anxiety, the impacts of trauma, and the complexities of queer and trans identities.

Agape Health Initiatives was created to help people achieve enlighment. An individual, regardless of one's past, present, and future, is deserving of the peace which comes from loving oneself and being able to show love to others. Emotional distress in the form of trauma, emotional disturbance, depression, anxiety, hearing voices or seeing things, negative self talk and distorted thinking steals personal peace and stops an individual from being able to obtain the peace which comes from loving oneself and others. My goal is to provide the tools and foster pathways for my clients to create personal peace and fulfillment.

My goal in therapy is to create a safe space where you can be honest and real. It takes great courage to seek help. To heal, grow and thrive people need a truly non-judgmental space in which to explore strengths, weaknesses, fears, past, present, and hopes for the future. I am real, kind, honest, and trustworthy. My therapy practice is rooted in an anti-oppressive, anti-racist, harm-reduction, trauma-informed, relational and person centered approach. I aim to create a safe space for clients to explore their identities and build self-efficacy.

I work with folks who experience challenges, such as trauma, anxiety, depression, sexuality, self-esteem, suicidality, behavioral concerns, and more. I meet you where you are to build a strong collaborative relationship. My goal is to create a space that provides unconditional support and empathy. It is important to me that you feel heard in a non-judgmental approach. I do not see myself as an expert on your life, but merely someone who is crossing paths with you in your healing journey.
