Delynn P Mackenzie
Counselor, MA, LMHC

My practice is currently full to new clients except for supervision clients. I have been practicing since 1996. I spent eight years at Northwest Youth Services working with teens and their families. I have been in private practice since 2003 and work with individuals, couples and teens. I have a dynamic personal style and use a variety of approaches to help clients improve. I use psychoeducation and a systemic perspective, which looks for the patterns in our behavior. I take on-going training in improving marriage. I have been trained in EMDR, TFT, and other "power therapies" for people with PTSD or long standing trauma.
Jupe Johnson
Counselor, MA, LMHC
Verified
There are times in life when we find ourselves wondering what we can do to handle certain challenges. Sometimes, a bit of help is needed to move on from difficulties, transitions, relational issues, and unexpected events of our lives that challenge us. It is possible to find opportunity and healing where none was thought to exist before. We can gain new insights, and grow from our experiences. Jupe can be helpful as you explore and accept what is and eventually grow and heal in your life. There are always choices, and always room to grow, heal and change.

Counselor, MA, LMHC

Change is inherently scary, so we resist it. And yet it is the one constant truth about life. You are courageous for taking this first step toward change that you choose in your life. Whether you are seeking to heal trauma, break out of unhelpful patterns of behavior, improve your relationship satisfaction, or deepen your understanding of yourself, I am here for you. I am particularly excited about helping clients experience freedom in their bodies in order to reclaim (or claim for the first time!) a life full of joy.
Danae Armstrong
Counselor, MA, LMHC
Verified
I am a passionate licensed mental health counselor that believes in helping others to foster growth and achieve their goals. I believe in taking risks, being vulnerable and shooting big in life. I am trained in both evidence based and person-centered practices. I work with my clients to create a plan for their therapy experience that is meaningful and works towards results. I work with individuals 12 years of age and up, couples and families. For clinicians newer or returning to the field, I offer a package supervision plan that includes billing and practice setup.

Counselor, MA, LMHC

So many people struggle to find happiness and balance in their lives and relationships. I can help you identify and remove the blocks to your happiness, whether they be inside of you (your thoughts, expectations and anxieties) or outside (toxic relationships, cultural barriers, etc.). I can also help you address and face the fears which hold you back, identify relationship patterns which keep you from getting what you want in love, and help you think outside the box to create novel solutions to your struggles.
Marion Murray
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Verified
As a LMFT I have worked over the past 13 years extensively with adults and adolescents experiencing traumas. Trauma can spill over onto family systems, causing pain and suffering to those we love and who love us. Whether our focus together is healing past traumas, unhappiness in relationships, or finding a way to navigate bringing together a new family system - lets start. I strongly believe in the ability of people to heal, grow, and improve their lives within a safe therapeutic environment, to explore their feelings and experiences. I would be honored to be the person you choose to help the healing begin.
Matt Meyer
Counselor, MC, LMHC

***I am currently accepting new clients.***It can be hard to find the right counselor! Where does one begin? I have helped hundreds of clients overcome depression, anxiety, trauma, and a variety of complex issues in a private practice setting for over a decade. I appreciate authentic and honest clients that are interested in doing hard work to change their lives. Therapy is always designed to get you to your goal.
Kendall Cline
Counselor, MA, NCC, LMHC
Verified
Restoring balance and healing our self-limiting beliefs really is possible. Often, our life stressors point to where we need to heal. My passion is working with folks who are motivated for that change. I work with brain-based psychotherapies of Brainspotting and EMDR to treat anxiety/depression, grief and loss, PTSD, past traumas or current triggers, abuse, concussion, birth/pregnancy issues, chronic pain, sports performance, performance expansion and more. We'll explore the origins and impacts of distress, develop self-compassion and grounding practices, process trauma and negative thoughts, and re-regulate your nervous system.
Amy Prieb
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CMHS
Verified
The quality of our personal relationships is one of the most important things in life. Relationships of all types--romantic, parental, friends, co-workers, etc.-- have the capacity for both tremendous joy and tremendous aggravation and heartache. My speciality is working with couples to help improve romantic relationships. Humans were created to be in relationship with one another and whether I am working with an individual, a couple or a larger family unit, the client's ability to maintain healthy relationships with family and loved ones is a primary focus.
Sarah Bulger
Counselor, MA, LMHC
Verified
I provide therapy for children dealing with emotional and behavioral issues, adolescents dealing with life transitions, and adults seeking emotional support and guidance. I have a strong passion for the work I do. Clients find me warm, caring and genuine. I create an atmosphere of safety that allows space for sharing and exploration. I will stimulate, challenge, and support you throughout the therapeutic process. I come from a family systems orientation. I like to involve parents when working with children and adolescents, taking care to maintain the child or teenager’s sense of safety and confidentiality.
Sheree Campbell
Psychologist, PhD
Verified
You’ve felt different from others most of your life. You’re tired of being told you are too sensitive. You feel too much. You require so much more alone time and downtime than most people. You have struggled to fit in, trying to please others, but this has sometimes caused you to feel deeply hurt. It’s exhausting and lonely being the person others often seek for support without reciprocating. You’re an old soul and you see the world differently. But the world seems so unkind in return. You’ve given so much and worked so hard but continue to feel unseen by those you care about. I see you.

If you’re reading this, you are courageously contemplating changes in your life. Perhaps you’re looking for relief from anxiety, trauma or depression. Or maybe you’re experiencing grief and loss, conflict in your relationships, troubles with work, or just a gnawing feeling that you’re missing out on something in your life. I congratulate you on considering therapy. It’s not easy to be vulnerable with someone you don’t know. Yet the power of being witnessed, heard and understood can be transformative.
Jeffery J. Roskelley
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LICSW
Verified
Thoughts, feelings and behaviors, which we often aren't even aware of, can keep us cycling in painful patterns of suffering, and may deepen those patterns over time. Through exploring our experience in a safe and compassionate space, we have the opportunity to see more clearly the patterns that aren't supporting our wellness or allowing us to live in line with what's truly valuable to us, and learn tools that move us toward a more fulfilling existence, regardless of how difficult our life circumstances may feel to us.

Are you starting to think about some changes in your life? Are you questioning yourself about your career, or relationships? Do you have a health issue such as ongoing illness, chronic pain or autoimmune disease that makes it challenging to live fully? I work with adults who are struggling with life transitions due to a change in their life or health situation and want support in adjusting to change, so they’re looking for a therapist who understands their situation and partners in developing a personalized therapy experience.
Davia Monet
Counselor, LMHCA
Verified
Across my varied caseload, the common aim of therapy is to develop a greater capacity for my patients to be present with what's going on for them, and determine how to cope. In growing attention to one's needs and particular inner/outer world, we collaboratively find ways to live in a more attuned and meaningful way. My patients are often young adults and teens processing complex trauma, identity, and living with the uncertainties of this world.
Kirsten Byrnes
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LICSW, MSW, MHP
Verified
Serving as a community-based mental health therapist for many years, I am looking to provide accessible virtual/telehealth (therapy from your home!) in both Washington State and Vermont. I resonate working with adolescents, teens, young adults, and adults that are seeking professional guidance during life’s toughest times to come out the other side not only healthy and well, but happy and thriving.
Jerry Saltzman
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT
Verified
My practice is based on the premise that any issue presented in therapy has deep emotional and psychological roots. At times these roots are recognized; mostly, not. The clients who achieve the highest degree of success in terms of resolution of presenting issues, personal growth, life satisfaction, and relationship enhancement are those who are willing to overcome resistance and emotional discomfort in order to root out the painful, dysfunctional origins of their presented issues, The courage, persistence, and resilience displayed during their therapeutic journey serve them well.
Claire Foden
Counselor, MA, LMFT
Verified
The therapeutic relationship can be as important as any relationship that we have in our lives, and I honor my role in that relationship. My approach to counseling is fluid and functional. There is an intersection, in mental health, between what we do and how we are. Both are essential to our health and ability to achieve our goals. Through a healthy, aligned therapeutic relationship, we can engage in reflection and transformation in how we engage with ourselves and the rest of the world. I feel grateful for the vulnerability required to seek help and support on this journey.
Veronica Garaycoa, M.S.W. HP
MSW, HP, LICSW
Verified
Our subconscious mind holds the memories and perceptions of every experience from childhood to adulthood. And as we continue our journey, the unresolved past continues to negatively affect our bodies, influence our thoughts, behaviors and everyday life on an unconscious level. We may not understand why we feel or react as we do to certain situations or why the same patterns show up every time and unexplained symptoms and/or circumstances keep repeating themselves. Often this prevents us from moving forward with our lives, achieve clarity and authenticity.
