Therapists in Castle Rock, WA

Accepting new clients! My practice as a social worker and therapist is grounded in the belief that the most effective treatment, and transformative healing, takes place within relationships- in the therapy room, and in our communities. Nurturing a therapeutic alliance rooted in connection, safety, and radical acceptance is central to my approach. As a saathi (companion, ally) on your healing journey, I am here to offer care and support as you process and integrate your experiences, navigate current challenges, and develop your innate strengths along with new skills.

Hello and thank you for reading! I am accepting new clients of all ages who are seeking virtual therapy anywhere in the state of Washington. I often work with queer and trans clients and those struggling with complex trauma. I am experienced in working with neurodivergent clients, teens and young adults, polyamorous clients, and formerly incarcerated folks.

Do you ever worry that you're 'too much' or 'not enough'? Would you be happier if you were different? Those feelings are common, especially for people of marginalized identity. In the therapy space, my goal is to deconstruct narratives about what you're 'supposed' to be and instead, help you love who you are right now. I specialize in supporting individuals as they navigate the complexities of LGBTQ+ identities, trauma, alternative relationship dynamics, and intersectionality.

Welcome to counseling; to be helpful lets regain access to inner wisdom for self advocacy through review of your strength base building practices by use of expressive arts therapy (life has been your stage), explore dreams (Adlerian therapies), explore play& traumas to connect with your inner child/teen or find your inner parent, track sensations with the mind, body and spirit for grounding purposes in our sessions. Welcome and thank you for adding me to your search!

There are many reasons someone seeks therapy. Whether it is from years of not feeling good enough or a life changing event, I can provide clarity, help you develop a better understanding of yourself, as well as help you to process trauma. By building an understanding of each part of the self and how the mind and body interplay, we can lessen traumatic and unwanted responses and build self-reliance and self-worth. I have a collaborative, holistic, and solution minded approach to therapy. I specialize in working with those who are neurodivergent and/or members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I utilize the relationship between the body and

The most important stories inside of us always find a way to speak. Sometimes they speak loudly, and sometimes just a whisper; in the thoughts we have, the way we feel, the way our bodies feel. Your anxiety, your memories, your relationship struggles, your deep identity questions. These stories live in our bodies, often uncomfortably or distressingly. In therapy, we can attend to these stories with compassion, and learn to understand how every part of you belongs to your whole self.

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.

Are you feeling stuck in your life, and seeking transformation to help you heal, thrive and live a more fulfilling life? I specialize in working with individuals struggling with obstacles to fuller living: be it experiencing anxiety/panic or depression, living with trauma, body image issues/eating disorders, or experiencing marginalization due to one's identities or background. I offer an inclusive and affirming approach in working with clients from all walks of life. A life lived more richly and authentically is possible, and I'm here to support you with this journey of self-exploration, self-care and growth.

Identifying unprocessed trauma is crucial in treating common to severe mental health issues. Trauma runs on a spectrum from minor to major events and is only relevant to the person who experienced it. What may be disturbing to one individual may not be to the next and vice versa. Trauma can be contagious and impact those around you. Everyone experiences adversity in their lifetime; while there are many wonderful evidence based methods I will use for recovery I find EMDR to be most effective with significantly faster results while being the least invasive.

Hi there, thank you for checking out my page! I am a couples and sex therapist that enjoys working with a number issues couples experience, commonly including communication difficulties, how to talk about and understand boundaries, and sexual exploration. If you and your partner (or partners - I work with non traditional relationship structure too!) are struggling to share and hear one another in your needs or heal from past hurts I would be honored to guide you through the process. Together, we will explore how unmet needs have become relational issues and rewrite your story to one of emotional understanding, compassion, and love.

We all have the capacity for healing and personal empowerment but life can get in the way! You want to detach from painful past experiences, start liking yourself again, and start really living your truth. Your relationships keep feeling hallow and disconnected. Worry about rejection or safety feels normal. You're barely keeping up with things, let alone trying to add in a therapy appointment each week! But you can feel it. You just can't keep avoiding these simmering feelings anymore because they keep coming back, they just keep coming back. I'm glad you are here, you're in the right place.

Pull up a bean bag chair, grab your favorite fidget, and let's talk. Maybe you describe your life as "a lot," and struggle to find the spoons to get all your stuff done as well as make meaningful change. Maybe anxiety takes up so much space in your day that it leaves little room for the things you want. Maybe your story includes trauma, and that burden is getting so heavy, it hurts. You want to pursue fulfillment, satisfaction, meaning, and peace in your world. If any of these or other painful places in your heart are true, I would love to get a chance to walk alongside you and find what you're looking for together.

We are living through challenging times and many of us are becoming aware of the things in our lives that aren’t working for us any longer. Some of us may be impacted by old wounds that never had the chance to fully heal; some of us are realizing we aren’t living our lives in a way that aligns with how we want to live. We believe that every person has the capacity to heal and live a life of meaning and positive well-being but that often, many of us do not have the support or skills that we need to make changes in our lives.

I am interested in supporting you through transitions, trauma, and life changes that can be difficult to navigate. I utilize a trauma-informed approach that is grounded in social justice, lived experience, and uplifting community. I have primarily worked with youth and also have experience working with LGBTQIA adults and survivors of assault through therapeutic groups and advocacy work. I am committed to supporting those who have been marginalized and believe that healing and justice is necessary for our communities.

Do you feel isolated? Do you simultaneously want connection and feel that you have a hard time trusting people and opening up to them? Do you have a tendency to intellectualize your problems? Is it sometimes hard for you to feel your feelings? When you do feel them, do you often feel sad or anxious but are usually able to redirect and feel “fine”? Do you cope by focusing on external goals and hobbies? Do you wish that you could feel a deep and lasting sense of security, peace, and belonging?

Hello and Welcome! My name is V (they/them), and it's an honor to join your mental health journey. I provide psychotherapy for artists, entrepreneurs, and high-performing professionals on the Kitsap Peninsula and the Greater Seattle area. Are you an artist wanting to uplift your craft, prepare for a project, or confront creative blocks? Perhaps you're an entrepreneur looking to overcome a scarcity mindset or a high-achieving professional wanting a kinder relationship with yourself? Therapy is a courageous act of self love so it's essential to have a trusted therapeutic companion by your side.

Sometimes in life we find ourselves dealing with issues we never imagined would happen. We struggle in relationships or we struggle at work. Sometimes we don't know why we're feeling the way we are- and that's ok too. Throughout life we face a variety of struggles psychotherapy helps you know you're not alone. My goal is to help you find hope, your direction to authenticity and healing beyond the struggles you're holding.

I’m a queer, mixed-race (SE Asian & Hispanic), neurodivergent, nonbinary femme passionate about helping clients access their creative healing energy to best help clients engage in authentic living and loving with themselves, others, and the world around them. I believe healing exists on a spectrum and hope to help clients find deeper understanding and healing through authentic connection, curiosity, and conversation. My approach is non-judgmental, non-linear, client-centered, educational, trauma-informed, and intentional. I offer an intersectional, anti-oppressive, holistic, and creative experience in therapy.

Life can be a real struggle especially when we are out of balance or out of alignment with our own values, passions, and goals. Many folks I work with struggle to prioritize their own needs and desires, may be disconnected from what they those even are. Whether through childhood or relational trauma, internalized habits of masking neurodivergence or marginalized identities, or a deeply compassionate nature, the cost of this often burnout, depression, anxiety, and disconnection.
