Teletherapy for Lower Queen Anne - Seattle, WA

Sometimes life can feel a bit overwhelming and cause you to feel alone. I believe that asking for help takes courage and is a powerful move in making a difference in your life. You do not have to go through the struggles of life alone. I view counseling as a collaborative process, where you are the master of your life, and I am joining along for the ride. I hope we can work together to find the answers you may be looking for within you. I am here to help with any life challenges you may be going through.

Life comes at us fast and we’re not always ready for it but that’s okay! I believe that we all crave connection with our peers, friends, family, and partners. And when we aren’t working on those connections, we’re working to build our connection with ourself. To fully work through that and make progress, I use a direct approach in helping clients address concerns that may arise from their connections with others or with themself. I believe that the most progress can be made when it’s accompanied with empathy and unconditional positive regard - two pillars of therapeutic work to foster growth and a sense of safety.

Are you struggling to show up in the present? Do you ever feel 'haunted' by past experiences that foreclose your way toward the future you want? I have met such roadblocks myself and believe that building a healthy interpersonal relationship in therapy paves the road to unlocking your goals & desires. I have specialties working with queer women & femmes in addressing anxiety, t/Trauma processing & recovery, sexual assault, and identity exploration.

Hi there! My name is Tyah Young (she/her) and I am a licensed mental health counselor associate. I am a queer identified, anti-racist, therapist of color who is committed to increasing access to mental health therapy particularly for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ individuals. I am passionate about working alongside individuals in the therapeutic process and empowering them to take steps towards healing. I consider every individual to be the expert of their story, and I endeavor to partner with my clients to get an understanding of their needs within the context of their lived experience. I hope to help you feel seen, heard, and validated.

I help adults and couples who feel lost, disconnected, or stuck in old patterns that no longer serve them. My clients are ready to understand themselves more deeply, pursue meaning, and relate authentically. I can help you embrace your strengths and gain clarity about underlying wounds that affect your thoughts, emotions, and relationships today. Through collaborative exploration in a safe space, we'll partner to process your past, connect insights intellectually and emotionally, and take steps towards the life you want.

Making the decision to seek therapy is brave. It's my hope that I can make the process of connecting with a therapist as easy as possible. I have a hands on approach in therapy and feel very enthusiastic about meeting you where you're at. I specialize in working with folks who are experiencing infertility, have a history of (or newly discovered) anxiety, navigating life transitions, or experiencing grief and bereavement. Although, there is no bad reason to seek therapy and I love working with a wide variety of concerns. Whatever motivated you to explore therapy, I'm glad that you're here.

I am a licensed psychologist who is skilled in Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. I also integrate client-centered, existential, and gestalt approaches, and tailor them to client’s unique needs and goals. My specialties include relationship difficulties, depression, career concerns, work stress, anxiety/panic attacks, identity issues (sexual, developmental, racial), and cross-cultural relationship.

I am a clinician focused on both deep emotions and practical coping. My therapy style is to collaborate with Clients to find out what works for you the best. It usually arises naturally from our body as body is the container for whatever we've been through. I believe psychotherapy can foster our personal growth and empower us to reclaim our capability to nurture and take care ourselves. I am specialized to work on perfectionism, professionalism, depression, anxiety, panic attack, trauma, stress, autistic spectrum, emotional regulation, relationship, family of origin, and cultural/racial issues.

Execs, managers, busy professionals struggling with Stress. Anxiety, Burnout, unhappy with your life and or feeling stuck in your relationships or career. High demands taking their toll? You’re used to being at the top of your game in your career, but confronted by these challenges you never anticipated. If you are a professional of color, international or recent immigrant you face additional challenges of bias, prejudice and microaggressions in the workplace. Reclaim your happiness, energy and empowerment? Be your best self in your personal & professional life.

Welcome! Looking for a therapist can be daunting. I applaud you for taking steps to help yourself. My clients typically come to me because they are suffering from high levels of stress or anxiety. They feel overwhelmed and panicky, are not able to stop worrying, or feel irritable and angry. Often they are puzzled by the intensity of their own emotional responses and they blame themselves for “overreacting”. Sounds familiar? There is nothing wrong with you. Your past memories, likely traumatic ones, may be intensifying your responses.

I am a Korean transracial adoptee raised in the Pacific Northwest, and grateful to be living and on the traditional land of the Duwamish people. Passionate about supporting individuals seeking holistic emotional and spiritual healing. Client led and centered, I aim to create a safe space to support you through your personal journey of healing. Believing in the power we receive from: understanding our stories/history, embracing our power, self-love, and receiving the gifts of our ancestors, while integrating therapeutic modalities such as CBT and EMDR (trained in both). Offer free 15 min consultations for adoptees offering resources.

As an organization we recognize that QTBIPoC folx tend to experience disproportionate amounts of mental health disparities due to large gaps in our current mental healthcare system. Here at MEND we believe that part of addressing those gaps is through the consistency of our intersectional feminist lens. In an effort to promote equity, we are expanding our team and client population to include members who hold identities that have not traditionally been offered at MEND. And while we center supporting QTBIPoC folx, we also offer services to those who do not hold these identities.

My therapeutic approach focuses on fostering healing and growth and emphasizing the value of relationships and connection. I strive to create a collaborative and empathetic safe space in which clients feel valued and empowered to explore their experiences. Approaching sessions with genuine curiosity, I aim to provide a therapeutic relationship that inspires clients to engage in opportunities for mutual growth, authenticity, and connection. Therapy can be the space for us to cultivate belonging and resilience. You are not alone; we can do this together. My goal is to understand the client holistically,

I help my clients address their anger, relationship conflict, trauma, codependency, depression and breaking cycles of generational trauma. Together, we can figure out what to do with the resentment, frustration, or loneliness you might feel. I will bring into session my honesty and respect for you. I believe you deserve a place free of judgment or expectations. In that safety, my clients will often interact with the root of the conflict in their lives, their patterns, and their emotional experiences.

Therapy is hard to define. We each carry our own singular experience into the process: our unique histories, our complex tapestry of relationships, our love, our pain, our wounds, and our scars. Therapy is as unique and complex as each of us, thus we each experience it in our own way. I believe our complexity is a gift, although at times our lives can feel like a mystery, even to ourselves. We feel stuck and confused, unsure of how to heal or grow, and we wonder if we can ever truly thrive. Many of us wonder if there’s a recipe for our healing and growth, or if perhaps there’s a map we could follow, if only we could find it.
