Therapists in Bellevue, WA

Immigration evaluations and teen support are my passions. I enjoy working with people of all races, ethnicities and cultures, and I am passionate in advocating for social justice issues. I believe that when transgressions occur and cause trauma, one should have a place to find safety. I myself have Dyslexia and HSP (Highly Sensitive Personality), which have presented challenges in my life, but I have learned to use them as the gifts that they are. For example, being highly sensitive enables me to be an excellent empathetic listener, and my dyslexia sometimes allows me to see possibilities for growth that others might not.

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!

Our clients are high achieving millennials, identity-developing gen-zers, people in transition, and people who think deeply about themselves and their growth. Our clients are asking: Why do my emotions feel so out of hand? How do I understand my relational patterns? How is my experience of trauma showing up in my every day life? Do I have ADHD? Do I have bipolar? Am I on the right medication? Should I take a break from work? How do I manage difficult relationships?

Queer, Latina, bilingual (Spanish-speaking) therapist, welcoming LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. Are you looking for a mental health service where all the different parts of you are explored? Though traditional talk therapy can be helpful, oftentimes a more broad approach will allow you to heal from past traumas and current life stressors, to be able to enjoy life again. Treatment is never one size fits all, I believe in a broad, person-centered therapeutic approach.

My counseling approach is to first help you clarify your presenting problems from an integrated mind-body-spirit-environment perspective. I utilize mindfulness to help you to develop clarity in the present moment, and with depth psychology, psychodynamic, EMDR, art therapy, Jungian psychology, and focusing-oriented psychotherapy to help you explore and embrace your, SELF, inner wisdom, and unconscious awareness for healing. Through processing unhealed wounds in the past, we can unveil the authentic SELF, and finding life meanings to journey on.

Your life feels like constant struggle, your worries keep you awake at night. Yet, you get up, put your best face on, and pretend that everything is OK. Wanted to get help but you are afraid to show what you are going through. You have been suffering; your relationships are suffering and deep down you know that something needs to change. If any of these applies to you, I can help. Sometimes all it takes finding a safe place and someone who are willing to listen without judgement. I can provide you a safe place and help you find your strength and build skills for a better life.

You may be trying to face your emotional scars alone. Yet together, we can explore these topics that may be difficult for you. I want to encourage your growth in self-compassion and self-worth as we work to reframe your unfavorable coping mechanisms. Life is a journey with plenty of obstacles to overcome, yet taking this step to live differently, with more hope, and to live more authentically, is worthwhile.

My guess is that you’re searching for a therapist because either you or someone you love is feeling stuck—and you’re searching for a way to get unstuck. Feeling stuck is a really helpless feeling—and it can be painful when we feel alone in our stuck-ness. I believe that that pain speaks to our human design for relationship—for a life of connection with God and others. We were created to be in relationship, but unfortunately, our beautiful, yet flawed humanness makes it difficult for us to fulfill this design.

Experiencing stress and emotional pain can be overwhelming. It may be difficult to take the first step and seek help, but you don't have to face these challenges alone. As your therapist, I am here to help you navigate these difficulties. I use an insight-oriented approach to help you make sense of your feelings and behaviors. By exploring your internal world, you gain a deeper understanding of how your past experiences affect you today, and pave a way for change & growth. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions (pregnancy, relocation), concerns about relationships, parenting & identity.

I work with individuals and couples/families that are finding that what they are processing in their lives are no longer serving them. Whether it be for recent life transitions, anxiety, PTSD, or depression; whatever path or experiences you have provides the right tools and solutions for what you want to do next in life. Part of my role is to shed light on what is working, what is not working. Together, what you share and express with me is part of identifying what solution(s) may be best for you and how to align those solutions by integrating them into your lifestyle.

I am passionate about working with Asian Americans and the Chinese population. I have a lot of experience in helping international students and employees navigate life transitions and challenges. My clinical areas of specialty include personal growth and development, anxiety and depression, interpersonal problems, grief and loss issues, trauma, and stress-related problems. I believe the difficulties serve a purpose: to provide us the chance to reveal authenticity and completeness in our life. Life seems to be falling apart when you focus on the broken pieces. I will help you see how they will come together to form the whole.

Welcome to what may well be a journey of transformation. As a psychologist, neuropsychologist, and Jungian analyst, I am dedicated to facilitating your psychotherapy or neurorehabilitation. My background in neuropsychology, mindfulness, Jungian/depth psychology, and multicultural perspectives enables me to tailor our work, guiding you through your inner struggles, relationship issues, and brain health challenges (e.g., stress, anxiety/depression/grief, trauma, racial identities, LGBTQ+, life transitions, aging, chronic illness, brain injury/TBI/Alzheimer's). Together, we can arrive at a path of growth that makes sense to you.

Let's face it, life can be stressful. That stress can become even more pronounced as you navigate new transitions like becoming an adult, moving to a new city, starting a new job, or leaving a relationship. Often times we have the answer but just need help sorting things out. Sometimes family and friends can be too close to help you identify your challenges. Sometimes THEY are the challenge. Working and trying to manage day-to-day responsibilities is no simple task. This is why I a firm believer in therapy.
