Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Queen Anne, Seattle, WA

As a psychotherapist I believe in creating a safe and welcoming environment for people to feel and express their emotions and dialogue about their realities. Meeting the client where they are at and working together to build insight and awareness towards creating a more fulfilled life is my main goal in therapy. I assist clients who are facing a wide range of issues including: suicidal ideation, grief and loss, trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, eating disorders, and spiritual concerns in taking steps towards healing.

My goal is to create a space for you to bring yourself and be heard. I enjoy getting to know the people I work with and if you choose the work with me, the rich/complicated narrative of how you came to be who you are today. My role is to be present with you and to hold space so that together we can find each next step in your ongoing journey. We can enter this space together and create something new. A different way of seeing, a different path in a stuck area of life or an expanded understanding and grace for yourself. Bring yourself, as you are, with your strengths and stress and struggles.

As a Child & Family Therapist, I help your child or teen navigate through important life challenges. I strive to create a safe space where children can feel comfortable and understood, making it easier for them to engage with therapy in a beneficial way.

Today's young adults have the ability to enact positive change in the world around us. With years of experience in supporting children, teens, and adults achieve their full potential and navigate rough patches, allow me to lend a hand. I view you as the expert on yourself, and come alongside as a coach to support and guide you in your journey. With families and children I utilize a team-based approach. All young adults can use an extra person in their corner to help navigate childhood, and I believe that working as a team with the family system allows for family members to grow and learn together.

I often describe therapy similar to the saying "everyone has baggage". It can be difficult to hold your own baggage while sorting the contents, trying to organize the things inside, or trying to find something you lost. My role is to hold your baggage to allow you the space, time, and understanding to do what you need to with what is inside.

I AM NOT CURRENTLY TAKING NEW CLIENTS! My goal as a therapist is to help you uncover your true potential & lead a life that is worth celebrating. I work to provide a safe and nurturing enviornment where you can receive support, guidance & feedback as I help guide you towards positive change. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand & resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches & techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling &meaningful life.

Greetings. I believe a calm, congruent, and genuine approach in psychotherapy is essential and that your sense of safety in the therapeutic relationship is crucial. I take a respectful and affirming stance toward my clients, and believe that therapy is a collaborative process. My goal is to create a deeply supportive environment of trust and acceptance where we can safely discover and explore.

I am passionate about working with young adults experiencing life transitions. There are many new challenges to be faced as we enter adulthood. Life can often feel stressful, overwhelming, and even hopeless at times. I believe that having a safe, nonjudgmental, culturally sensitive space to process these stressors can be a truly transformative experience. I work alongside my clients to help deepen their self-understanding so that they may feel empowered to create the positive changes that they want to see in their life.

My name is Mallory and welcome to my profile! I like to see therapy as a way to learn about how our brain works and what changes you would like to make. I take a collaborative approach with my clients, we decide on a plan together that would effectively help them approach their goals. I like to give my clients skills to practice during the week in order to help them start to set routines that are helpful. I only offer telehealth services, which means you can bring your pet to give you support during your sessions!

I specialize in individual, couples and family therapy. I often address issues relating to anxiety, depression, self worth and how a physical/mental disability may affect your perception of yourself in the world. I provide a safe, nurturing place to validate your feelings and look at what may/or may not be serving you to be your best self. 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. I have currently added a unique twist to my practice by offering in-home therapy to new moms, families or anyone that has difficulties with transportation.

You deserve a therapist who’s a good fit for you. A nonjudgmental listener who accepts you for who you are while also facilitating the changes you want to see for yourself. A professional who can provide valuable insights within a safe space to share and explore. Someone who sees the value in understanding and processing your personal history without losing focus on the present.

I approach my counseling with a belief that all children and young people have the potential to make positive change for themselves and for the world around them. I adapt my therapeutic approach to the client but often utilize strength-based counseling, positive talk therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to encourage personal growth while I coach and help guide the way. I believe counseling has the power to change the direction of your life, by developing techniques, skills, and perspective that builds confidence and creates social emotional growth that lasts a lifetime.

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I feel uniquely qualified to support other members of the community. Issues related to identity and sexuality, including anxiety, depression, and PTSD are of particular interest to me. I get excited knowing I will help someone come to terms with who they are and how they fit in the world. I have worked in mental health for 30 years, and specifically as an individual therapist since 2017. I approach therapy with a relaxed, sort of informal attitude. I do make the occasional pop culture reference, and often people don't get them, then we have a laugh.Are you an LGBTQIA+ veteran? Come see me!

When too much is too much and nothing seems to be working, therapy is an excellent place to start. We all respond to stress differently. Some common ways are lethargy, persistent thoughts, impulsive actions, body aches, or insomnia. You may apply words like depression, anxiety, or trauma to those symptoms which can feel big and scary. Therapy is where you can fully show up with any of it. Therapy contains the things that feel out of control and once a week or more you have a safe place to bring yourself authentically.
