Therapists in Mukilteo, WA

I offer tools and support many have found useful in enhancing the quality of their lives. Work-life balance, self-esteem, marriage, relationship issues, as well as executive and life coaching are the focus in my practice. I have worked in the community mental health and corporate settings for over 25 years. Please contact me if you feel ready to get going in a more positive and productive direction in your life by learning skills that will show you how to make choices that will get you there.

I am a spiritually-oriented psychotherapist who brings energetic depth and heart-felt attunement to each client. If you struggle with low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, problems with authority, parenting issues, difficulty with intimacy, perfectionism, addictions, feelings of isolation, rage/anger, numbness, or "living like a zombie," I invite you to contact me so you can begin to rekindle and conduct the force of your inner light. I am comfortable with your fullest expression of difficult emotions and will help you to experience yourself as inherently worthy of safety, respect, and intimacy with others.

Welcome! I am so glad you are here! I am passionate about client care and developing a therapeutic rapport. I believe our emotional health depends on our abilities to embrace our feelings, move toward social interest and attaining goals of self-worth relationships, work, and life in general. Our emotional and mental health suffers when there is inconsistencies between the image we have of ourselves and the world around us. My goal is to help clients gain accurate perceptions of who they are in the world and the world around them by giving clients the support and tools needed to traverse the difficult terrains of life.

I have many years of experience working with children, teens, adults and families in varying situations. I have an extensive background in working with children, teens, families, LGBTQIA+ folks, adults, and those who are retired. I have done work around complex trauma, stress, depression, anxiety, transitions, self-esteem, parenting issues, as well as a specialty in grief/loss, anticipatory grief, end of life, hospice and chronic medical issues.

Why go to therapy? You might seek therapy when experiencing emotional pain or stress, even confusion about a situation or about yourself. Life challenges can pile up and seem overwhelming. Worry can interfere with relationships, work, and sleep. One goal of therapy is to relieve stress and every session should offer greater understanding of issues and relief in some way. Maybe you feel all alone with your concerns—it’s normal to feel that way. Therapy offers a place of understanding and acceptance, a place to be heard, and for you to feel safe with all of your feelings and thoughts, even those that you might feel are strange.

I have been in the mental health field since 1995. Because of my many years working with people in crisis, I have become skilled in sifting through the confusion and disorder that is often present in difficult situations, to find out what the primary issues are.

My passion is to empower others to build self-confidence through therapy. Through self-confidence, you can learn how to care for yourself in ways that help you grow using self-compassion and maintain your mental health.

We are a group of therapists that believe therapy is an important life choice that people make when things get tough. This courageous decision must be honored with compassion, empathy, and sincerity. We are passionate about helping and sharing in the journey towards greater health and happiness. It is important to feel safe in therapy, and thus feel free to say what is on one's mind and in one's hearts while always being met with compassionate understanding. We believe that every person deserves safety, dignity, and peace of mind. We love working with people who are seeking to live their best life

Hi there! I am currently accepting new Telehealth clients in Washington and North Carolina. Learning to trust someone is hard, but having to face difficult experiences alone can be even harder. I am here to help you make that journey (feel) easier, and help you grow at the same time. Using a holistic, person-centered approach, I will learn what makes you who you are, and will develop a unique treatment plan tailored to your needs. I enjoy working with individuals and couples, people of all orientations, and with military members and their families. I value support and validation but encourage solutions and change.

My approach to therapy is informed primarily by Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and trauma informed care. Stemming from the knowledge that you are the expert on you and provide a mirror for you to gain more self-awareness, and skills in which to grow and change. Being a trained Drama Therapist I will offer drama, art, and movement therapies in our work together if it will help you with your goals.

I will bring my experience, as we collaborate together on your goals while you set the pace. I'm a good fit for clients who are ready to explore their thoughts, feelings, & behaviors & seek to take personal responsibility for their needs & relate to themselves & others. I specialize in helping heal from trauma. I have experience working with PTSD, anxiety, depression, social anxiety, building of social/communication skills, building healthy & effective boundaries & rewarding relationships. Heal, move forward & grow to your full potential.

Hi, thanks for being here! If you haven't been feeling like yourself & are in need of additional support, you're in the right place. I'm passionate about helping those struggling w/ anxiety, depression, high stress/overwhelm, & trauma. I am ADHD-affirming. I will work with you to help you regain a sense of balance, find peace and joy in your life again, while reducing shame/guilt & confusion surrounding your current life challenges. We will also work towards creating a growth mindset through self-compassion & the use of tangible coping skills.

I work with people coping with trauma and stress, especially stressors related to substance use, family of origin, parenting, relationship issues, and abuse. The cumulative worry, grief, exhaustion, and loss of hope that so often accompany these challenges can leave you feeling overwhelmed and alone. In our sessions, we will work together on short-term relief, along with deeper explorations oriented towards lasting change. New ways of relating to yourself and others bring about new experiences that reignite your sense of hope and nurture change. I offer calm, thoughtful, nonjudgmental support to you and your family on your journey.

My passion is holistic and transformational psychology: unite mind, body, emotions and spirit. Although classically trained, I now live my clinical truth: transformational psychology and spirituality, intuition, mind body healing, energy, newer trauma treatment methods, reworking core-beliefs, and potent interactive guided imagery I've developed my entire career. My intention is: heal core issues; shed limiting negative thoughts and emotions; live personal truth, the calling in one's heart, and assist the Grand Transformation on our planet. This combines with newer views of science and psychology, consciousness, quantum physics, energy, ancient wisdom, spirituality, trusting inner knowing and direct experience.

Do you struggle with your mood, a life transition, addressing addiction, managing a chronic illness, or recovering from trauma? Or do you feel overwhelmed, unable to help a loved one in the midst of significant problems? The good news is you are not alone. Deciding to reach out and get help is an important first step to changing patterns, healing wounds, and restoring relationships.

I provide psychotherapy to individuals and couples. I also do hypnotherapy and psychological evaluations. My theoretical orientation depends on your needs and the type of therapy you are seeking. In order for psychotherapy to be effective, there must be openness and trust, commitment to change, and an attitude of collaboration between client and therapist. Together we will explore the problems that led you into therapy, discuss your past as it is relevant to your present situation, and establish goals for your treatment.

If you have struggled with trauma related to childhood abuse, dysfunction, attachment issues; and/or interpersonal violence (domestic abuse, sexual abuse) I can help! I also specialize in helping clients diagnosed with BPD unpack and heal their underlying trauma. In working with me, you will learn how to HEAL your trauma without constant use of coping skills to dull the pain. First session is free.

Life can be difficult, painful, wonderful, confusing, and more. As a therapist it is my goal to provide space in this complicated world for people to feel seen and heard, learn about their difficulties and create positive change. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. I am most interested in helping clients understand how environmental dynamics of past and present have come to impact a person, then learn to shift from unhelpful to more helpful patterns of living. Those I have worked with often tell me that I am honest, caring, silly, and “down to Earth”.

Welcome. I am so glad you are taking steps to care for yourself. Whether you are looking for support during a stressful time in your life or healing from unresolved trauma we will work collaboratively to create in you a solid emotional foundation. I believe we all have the answers we need to let go and move on with life. We will work together to explore the sources of your discomfort and find ways specific to you to release the impasses that have held you back from being your authentic self. We will gently address your needs to become more self-empowered and confidently advocate for yourself taking charge of your emotional health.l
