Therapists in Ferndale, WA

Opening 1 additional Day of appointments - 9 openings available beginning in October. With grace, and humor, we'll work with you to address challenges impacting your health, happiness, and relationships with others. It's our philosophy that whatever affects our emotional health (isolation, depression, anxiety, trauma) will affect our physical well-being (appetite, sleep, weight gain). Not too many people enjoy change and these past few years have been nothing but a roller coaster! I'd enjoy the opportunity to talk with you and understand how you're doing. How have you been affected by changes? Is BreakThrough! right for you?

Hi, my name is Alagna (pronounced Ah-lah-nya), I work with individuals, adolescents, couples, and families interested in finding meaningful support as they navigate personal and relational challenges. I take a deeply systemic approach to therapy, considering you as an individual and conceptualizing the influence of familial and social systems in your life. I view healing as a holistic journey encompassing awareness, reflection, and embodiment. I take special pride in working with folks who have experienced complex family trauma, or sexual trauma, or feel a sense of existential meaninglessness in their life.

If you want to just talk, then we'll do that. This is your path to healing. Come as you are. There's no art experience required to benefit from art therapy.

I provide trauma-informed integrative care to individuals with a history of trauma, childhood trauma, neglect, and/or abuse, PTSD, C-PTSD, traumatic grief, and intergenerational trauma. As a whole, I work with individuals who come into therapy with a specific goal to address anxiety, mood, or ADHD symptoms to improve daily functioning. During our work, we often find that there is an undiagnosed, misdiagnosed, or unattended history of trauma that compounds mental health symptoms and overall functioning. We work to address symptoms and stabilize functioning through evidence-based interventions, along with process-based therapy.

Struggling with a sense of disconnection from oneself and others, placing personal needs last on the to-do list, and questioning whether life could be more fulfilling or joyful are common feelings. Nowadays, many individuals are experiencing anxiety, feeling swamped, and facing uncertainty about managing their relationships, careers, and overall lives. Neglecting one's needs and not allocating time for self-care can result in enduring problems for both mental and physical health. It is my belief that living a better life shouldn't be this difficult.

My commitment is to you, believing in you and working at your pace to ensure a more positive journey in this (often times) challenging world.
