Therapists in Issaquah, WA

If you are in a moment of trying to navigate emotional pain, you are in the right place. Reaching out for support takes courage and wisdom. With all the demand on your time, energy and attention, there is an unreasonable expectation for you to have to take care of everything, both in your external life (work, relationships, finances, etc) and internal life (your emotions, thoughts and patterns).

Are you feeling stuck in your relationship? Do you feel paralyzed by anxiety and worry? Have you tried to fix things yourself and feel frustrated with the results? I am dedicated to helping clients who are seeking more connection in their marriage and who want to make life more manageable. My typical clients are those who struggle with anxiety and/or sexual dysfunction. This includes issues of sexual desire, arousal, orgasm, or out-of-control sexual behavior/addiction.

As a mental health counselor, I work with adults ages 18-65 who are seeking to make positive changes in their lives. Whether that is managing symptoms of mental health like anxiety or depression, processing trauma, or unforeseen life circumstances, together we can develop a path of success.

Improving yourself can be a rewarding and lifelong positive enhancement. My role as a Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) is to help you in this journey. I believe that every person has room for improvement and seeking professional mental health counseling is a great step to take to improve yourself. I practice from a strengths perspective, helping you realize how to use what you do best to your maximum benefit. I also enjoy helping individuals who are not coping well in the context of their relationships with others and their families. I hope that my knowledge, professional training and life experiences will benefit you.

I am so excited to provide support and encouragement with you in whatever stage of your life journey you are on. ​As a therapist I work with individuals, couples and families. My specialties consists of clients with child welfare, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, life transitions, trauma whether past or current, life stress, work stress and relationship issues. The population I serve varies from ages 6 up to the geriatric population. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, “talk therapy”, motivational interviewing, client-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, strength-based therapy and group therapy.

I see therapy as a collaborative process. It is a journey of exploring the different parts of yourself to better understand who you are and where you want to go. Maybe you feel stuck or overwhelmed in life and are looking for support. Through therapy we have the opportunity to journey together to help you move toward growth and healing. My desire is to help you find your authentic and best self.

I believe a person is often presented with challenges in his or her life and that sometimes we need help in facing those challenges. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples to overcome these obstacles and find solutions that lead to a balanced life. These challenges often arise from relationships, both personal and professional, from past experiences, from depression or anxiety, as well as from physical challenges such as chronic pain or illness, among many other factors.

As a clinical social worker, I believe that each person’s individual life experiences influence our ability to interact, trust, and form/sustain close, meaningful relationships with one another. And one of my greatest passions is partnering with people who want to take ownership over the happenings in their life. When we work together you can expect a safe space to explore your unspoken thoughts, doubts and fears without judgement.

Eastside Insight is the psychotherapy practice of Rose Gillis. Eastside's name, logo, and motto reflect the belief that the elements needed for overcoming an issue are already within. Pulling this intelligence into consciousness is a form of learning called insight. When insight becomes blocked then a relationship with a confidant, who doesn’t feel burdened by your troubles, can help in the process of bringing your truth forward into awareness. It is important then to find a therapist who you connect with, is objective, and supports your needs. The website eastsideinsight.com was created for you, with this pursuit in mind.

Hello! I love to help teenagers & adults with their challenges. I became a therapist because as a kid, my parents didn't see how badly I needed someone to talk to about what was going on. In the same year, my parents went through a long separation & divorce, we moved out of my childhood home, & I started at a new school where I didn't know anyone. I was struggling with feeling depressed, anxious, lonely, & suicidal. I wish I had someone that I could have trusted, who would see the strengths in me, help me work through my feelings, & help me to believe in myself & how awesome life can be again. I'd love to be that therapist for YOU!

It can feel overwhelming juggling multiple demands at home and in the workplace. We can experience great amount of stress from different life transitions. As a clinical social worker, I believe everyone can learn, grow, and work through challenges.

Each of us have our unique history and background that shape our experience and life decision. Every individual develops unique coping skills that help them get through tough times and that they are experts of their lives. I believe individuals seek therapy to work through their hard issues, learning new ways to cope with life challenges, develop positive relationship with others, and finding meaning in life. I am a multicultural Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist experienced working with children, youth, adults, parents/caregivers, and families.

Individuals, couples and families are all seen as my ideal client. I typically see clients from the ages of 13 and up, but I do make some exceptions. Clients who are having difficulties with communicating their emotions, identifying their strengths and their core self, or having dysfunctional dyadic or family patterns are clients who I know I can help. Clients coming regularly and genuinely working with me to accomplish the goals we set out at the beginning of therapy are ideal. If you want to better yourself in any way, shape or form, I will be the person who will try my best to help you become the better self you aspire to be.
