Therapists in Washington County, VT

Welcome! Seeking therapeutic support can be both an amazing and an overwhelming journey. You may have a need to find your way and to reclaim your voice to better understand who you really are. You may want to let go of what's not working for you or you may want to recapture what was lost or taken away. Together we can explore your unique situation and explore your life's purpose.

I believe the healing power of therapy lies in the strength of connection and trust within the therapeutic relationship. I strive to create a safe space in which individuals and couples can show up, just as they are, while learning to grow into their strengths and foster self-understanding and compassion. I also support clients in seeing themselves within the larger context of their lived history, and the wider social landscape.

If you are here, you might be a creative person who feels stuck in your ability to move forward and actualize your full, unique potential. "Stuck" might take many forms –depression, chronic anxiety, trauma patterns, miscellaneous self-sabotage, or issues in relationships. Maybe you've been through (or are in the middle of) a challenging experience that you have yet to fully digest. Maybe your ways of being are at odds with "normal" systems and structures. Whatever it is, you want to make the shifts that let you bloom more fully in your life. I help you nourish your gifts and cultivate resilience in the face of life's challenges.

*TELETHERAPY ONLY. Listening to you in a safe, supportive space, I can help you through a crisis and find solutions together, whether it’s you, a partner or a child who needs help. I can assist with grief, trauma, relationships, anxiety, depression, addictions, IEP planning, ADHD, learning or behavior problems, among others. You may be feeling hopeless or overwhelmed. I know seeking therapy may not be easy. Taking the time to find my profile and read this is already a significant step toward change. (Please note: my number may show up on caller ID as private; some phones may not accept my calls.)

As an agency we have been supporting people via online sessions, with everything that falls “outside the box” for many years. Well our whole world just changed with this pandemic, and everything now falls under that category. Let us help you navigate these uncharted waters. No matter what challenge this all is bringing up for you let us support you in finding a way through this and finding your inner strength during this time.

My passion comes from helping people move past the losses and traumas of their past and into a rich and full life. Trauma and the losses we experience in life can wound us on every level - physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. My desire is to see you pick up the pieces and create a beautiful life beyond the struggle of grief, anxiety, postpartum difficulties, infertility, disordered eating, childhood abuse, and other painful life events. My approach is one of compassion, honesty, and a little bit of sass - to help you rediscover a life of passion, beauty, joy, fulfillment, and empowerment.

I focus on helping you to make positive changes in your life and remove barriers that you feel are holding you back. I specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, codependence, and substance use issues. I provide a comfortable environment where we will work together and help you become more mindful and motivated, improve your thoughts and behaviors, and feel less stressed and anxious. I have flexible hours and my office is conveniently located in downtown Montpelier.

Are you looking to make positive changes in your personal, relationships, or work life? Feel better mentally and physically? Quit smoking, lose weight, or generally feel more confident and fulfilled? Stress and anxiety can be challenging hurdles to overcome without the right tools. It’s easy to look around and see others seemingly at peace and living their lives to the fullest while you feel like you’re barely treading water. You would like to change your behavior, beliefs, or thoughts, or perhaps resolve emotions that weigh you down but have yet to be as successful as you would like.

Are ADHD-like symptoms stressing you out - whether you're in college or an adult? Do you crave practical, strengths-based solutions for "under-performing" (by your own definition)? Let's talk! I coach high-functioning college students and adults who are struggling to meet academic, professional, or emotional demands in their lives. Together we'll de-shame executive function challenges, situate EF in larger social contexts, build on your specific strengths, and develop a holistic personal toolkit of creative, pleasure-centered productivity habits. Do what matters most - by your own definition.

I offer general counseling services to adult individuals and couples, covering a wide variety of issues and emotional stressors, some specific and some undefined. I recommend meeting perhaps more than once then deciding together if I may be helpful.

My specialties are: anxiety, mindfulness techniques and spirituality. I believe that the mind, body and spirit are deeply connected, and I combine my training in psychology with my experience as a massage therapist, herbalist, and reiki practitioner to address all of these aspects of healing. My counseling approach is relational and strengths-based. Together, we will build a safe and trusting relationship to explore what you need to heal. We will draw from a variety of modalities to address your needs: supportive talk therapy; body-centered awareness; self-care bodywork techniques; mindfulness; and more.

As a fellow queer nuerodivergent geek, it can be challenging to find mental health professionals who understand the importance of fandoms, videogames, cosplay, and other geeky interests in the therapeutic space. Sometimes it feels like speaking another language. However, here the geeky is celebrated for the strength it has brought and looks at how to transfer those strengths to other areas such as working with anxiety, exploring one's gender identity, or learning to set healthy boundaries with others. I view our time as a place to explore parts we don't often give space to in our regular day.

Our natural state is wellness. Yet many of us feel sick in our souls. Empty and discouraged, we seek creative bandaids to contain our despair : pursuits of money, relationships, sex, achievement, adventure, good works, productivity. Even health practices can become compulsive activities that fail to mend a persistent sense of inner broken-ness. Mindful Psychotherapy cultivates inherent wellness in the midst of life difficulty and opens the potential for real and lasting change. I am now honored to offer Mindfulness for couples as a certified Dialogue Therapist, a powerful time limited intervention : https://young-eisendrath.com/d

For over 25 years, I've worked with a range of issues, including depression, anxiety, and grief. I listen carefully and work to help my clients understand their patterns, such as repeatedly thinking, feeling or doing what they often would rather not. Respecting the need for confidentiality, empathy, honesty and humor, I encourage the exploration of conscious and unconscious thoughts/feelings and help to identify how significant past experiences have influenced the present. Working through issues, using insight and the therapeutic connection, strengthens self acceptance, fulfillment, and success in relationships, school and work.

Hello, I am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP). Many of us experience symptoms of unresolved trauma and/or chronic stress and want to feel more ease and connection while experiencing a greater sense of safety and belonging. Many of us want to live into our full potential and/or authentic selves. Somatic Experiencing (SE) offers a gentle pathway to re-inhabiting or connecting to our bodies at a safe pace to address symptoms that may include anxiety, overwhelm, feeling stuck, fatigue, insomnia, numbness, fear/hyper-vigilance, anger, chronic health issue, and/or pain.

In my practice, I have successfully helped many people overcome, or cope with, insomnia (CBT-I), circadian rhythm disorders, CPAP desensitization, nightmares, chronic pain (CBT-CP), nicotine addiction, chronic illness, terminal illness, diabetes, obesity, nutritional difficulties, and more. My goal is to help clients improve their quality of life by limiting the negative impact of their health-related challenges so they can spend more time focused on, and engaged in, what they value

Kate Morris is a clinical social worker and founder of Among the Trees Counseling and Wellness.

My work is organized around the principle of post traumatic growth (see Tedeschi & Calhoun). Extensive research has demonstrated that those people who have been traumatized who get better change 3 things: relationship with self; relationship with other people; relationship with philosophy or religion. I help the wonderful people who work with me make those changes.
