Infertility Therapists in Alki Beach, Seattle, WA

Accepting New Clients. I'm so glad you're here. If you are feeling the urge to seek out therapy, I admire you for taking the leap. Sometimes, the hardest part of therapy can be searching for a therapist or making that first appointment. Going through therapy is a journey, and together with support, I am confident that it will be an experience you are proud of. Let's work together to create a story that fits exactly where you are in life.  ​ ​

Supervision provided for LMHCAs. I work with kids and families on issues of attachment after adoption, trauma, related behavioral problems, emotional regulation, identity and separation issues. With kids I use a variety of play and art therapy techniques. Infants and very young children are seen with their caregivers. With adult adoptees I help to recognize old patterns, gain awareness about internal conflicts, tolerate and overcome the threat of change, and awaken to new and more satisfying possibilities for thinking, relating and living. EMDR and/or Somatic techniques for trauma. Safe and Sound Protocol is a service I offer.

I enjoy helping people recover from the effects of trauma in their lives in order to feel safe in the world, and attached to themselves and their loved ones. My specialty is in Lifespan Integration, an effective tool used for trauma reprocessing and attachment repair. I work with survivors of childhood trauma, PTSD, and people navigating infertility , pregnancy, and postpartum transitions.

I can help you find purpose and clarity in your personal life and in your relationships. You deserve to make fulfilling changes in your life and to feel better connected to the ones you love. Whether you are attempting to gain insight individually, want to feel better connected as a couple, or wish to improve your family and interpersonal relationships, I would be honored to support you in your goals.

Hello! My name is Christine Paprocki, Ph.D., a clinical psychologist licensed in Washington State, specializing in the treatment of anxiety disorders in individuals and relationship distress in couples. I take a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach, meaning that I will work with you to examine connections between patterns of thinking, behavior, and emotions that can contribute to difficulties you may be experiencing. In treatment we set specific goals, track symptoms to better understand their impact on you, and discuss exercises to apply skills learned in therapy to your daily life.

You can succeed in life especially in love, marriage, and family! Even though you may be experiencing great pain because of personal trauma and/or relationship conflicts, you can turn things around. However, you may need assistance from a trained, compassionate professional to help you, either as an individual or with your loved ones, to restore trust, friendship, joy, and deep love.

Relationships can be hard, especially the parenting one. My style of therapy is based on the latest research in how the brain (neuroscience geek!), body, and emotions work together. For 20 years, I've partnered with individuals and couples, facilitating thriving relationships: parent-child, partners, co-parenting couples, divorcing couples. The most important relationship is the one we have with ourselves. I can help you explore relational wounds and teach you new skills to experience more satisfying relationships. Let's talk and see if we're a good fit.

I will actively use my training and experience to help you meet your needs & goals. Successful treatment is a direct result of mutual efforts, honesty, respect, and collaboration. Life is full of transitions. Many transitions require skill to navigate. Some happen easily and others require thought, planning and occasionally outside help. I regularly help people manage depression, anxiety, life & work transitions, relationship problems, the processing of and recovery from trauma, and developmental issues throughout the lifespan.

We all struggle from time to time, it's part of being human. While we often wish our difficult feelings would just go away, these periods of struggle can be an invitation for growth. Therapy will help you get through a difficult time and as you do you will gain the knowledge and tools necessary to make lasting positive change in your life. I help individual clients who feel stuck or dissatisfied with some aspect of their life increase self-awareness and self-compassion and decrease unwanted symptoms such as anxiety, depression and negative thoughts. ​​www.nancycasecounseling.com

As of 12/01/22 I am currently taking new patients via Zoom.

I work from an anti-oppression, inclusive-feminist lens. I believe that counseling is a journey to self-discovery that you are choosing to stop taking alone. Everything you need is already within you; sometimes it just takes a little guidance -- someone to walk the path with you -- to really make the changes you want to make in your life. I specialize in clients under the "Big Rainbow Umbrella" (LGBTQIA+), trans/non-binary, non-monogamy, and kink/BDSM.

No matter what you are going through, know that I am here to listen, support you and help you figure it all out! Welcome to the newest generation of self care and mental health- this is easy, accessible, no-stress, stigma free help for whatever you are going through. Feel free to wear your sweatpants, sit on the couch and have a session on your phone or lap top. Prefer in person? No problem, come visit my office in a charming 1900's Craftsman home near the Junction in West Seattle! Check out www.nostressnostigma.com for details!

I believe that therapy is fundamentally about growth, learning to embrace challenges in life, and finding your authentic self. It is my passion to develop a genuine relationship with my clients where we can safely have difficult conversations, resolve conflicts, and experience your authentic self, including your pain.

I offer Individual Psychotherapy, Couples and Family Therapy to help people heal and develop skills for improving relationships and communication, find new ways to cope with stress, depression and anxiety, and create healthier and more adaptive patterns. My treatment approach is psychodynamic and client-centered, offered in a safe, compassionate and supportive environment. Attachment and family therapy can help strengthen bonds by resolving old patterns of interacting, and creating space for healthy, rewarding connections. I will listen and provide guidance and encouragement as you develop and achieve your goals.

I believe you know yourself best, but may need to make time and space to reconnect with you. I apply an integrative, holistic approach that examines each person's experience while taking into account the context in which they exist. The foundation of my work is establishing a brave space of safety and trust, while embracing compassion, empathy, non-judgment and openness.
