Therapists in Marysville, WA

Dream Life Out Loud, PLLC, is a Black woman owned/led virtual mental health practice offering collaborative care across family systems - ranging from individuals, couples, youth, and families. We specialize in trauma-informed, evidenced-based, integrative approaches for healing, wellness, and fulfillment while serving a diverse range of clients from varying socioeconomic, racial, and other demographic backgrounds. The center of our work is advancement of holistic wellness; tapping into ancestral insights of power, spiritual attunement, and mental health approaches rooted in evidence-based research.

As a therapist, I see my clients as the experts in their own lives. My role is akin to that of a guest—here to build upon the tools you already possess while introducing new ones that align with your life goals. I enjoy guiding clients through challenging life changes and helping them break patterns that no longer serve them. My experience primarily lies in working with teens and adults, including LGBTQIA+ youth and individuals with BIPOC identities.

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.

I have immediate availability! Are you a parent who feels at a loss for how to help their child? I offer emotional regulation skills for the child, and effective parenting skills for the parent. Are you ethically non-monogamous? Are you wanting to open your relationship? Do you need extra support navigating polyamory? I offer years of experience and knowledge to help you navigate this sometimes tricky relationship dynamic. Are you in the LGBTQIA+ community? Are you struggling with issues of self-worth or internalized oppression? I strive to help you discover your value and work on helping you love exactly you.

Hey there! I feel so fortunate to have a specialty working with diverse sexualities, gender identities, and relationship structures over the past 18 years. Whether I am supporting individuals and their families with the coming-out process, assisting clients with social and/or medical transition, helping folx design relationships that actually work or creating a space where you can simply fall apart.. my hope for all of my clients is to learn how to love themselves and each other better and resolve differences more directly and fairly. I am extremely interpersonal in my work and if you'd like more clarity around that - just ask :)
