Seattle, WA 98118
I work with individuals from teen through older adulthood who are navigating anxiety, depression, and life adjustments.
Lashon specializes in anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders. He believes that our family dynamics and social interactions shape how we relate to others — often creating patterns that feel familiar, even when they’re not helpful. By exploring your communication style and the ways you build relationships, Lashon helps identify the areas where you feel stuck so you can begin the process of meaningful change and improved quality of life. Lashon values a collaborative approach. When clients understand and actively participate in their care, they work in true partnership toward achieving their desired outcomes.

Counselor, MA, LMHC
Seattle, WA 98136
Despite your best efforts, life is unknowable - you can't always predict or be prepared for what comes your way. Difficulties are inevitable. When they occur, you might need help sorting out what's going on and what to do next. The good news is, therapy helps. When you're feeling miserable, unlovable and afraid, therapy helps. When you find yourself asking the question "why me?", therapy helps. When you're ready to step into your life and take charge of it, instead of having it take charge of you, therapy helps.

Is traditional talk therapy not working? I'm Angharad Caceres, and I'm an art therapist. Engaging with your creative self can help you discover and process your emotions. Struggling with life changes? Grieving the past, people you love, the end of relationships? Grappling with self image, self concept, daily life? Making art can give you perspective, help you process trauma and grief, promote calm, and help build your self confidence. Art experience is not a requirement, the creative act is deeply personal and individual, there are no rules on what it should look like, and art therapy is all about the process, not perfection.

Sometimes you don’t know why, but you recognize you are more stressed than usual, worrying more, taking more risks, withdrawing from activities, or aren’t as present in relationships as you’d like to be. Sometimes you know why, but you don’t know what to do about it. Sometimes you know what to do about it, but you find yourself stuck. Regardless of where you might fall on this continuum, we can find a path forward together. I work 1-on-1 with young adults and adults struggling with alcohol and/or drugs, mental health, and co-occurring disorders. I have a particular interest in working with people struggling with substance misuse.

Pre-Licensed Professional, BA, BS
Seattle, WA 98109
Hello! My name is Rachael and I am a graduate intern at Satya. My background is in community nonprofit and I decided I wanted to be a therapist after seeing all of the barriers to mental health care that people across different identities face. With this experience, I try to base my practice in social justice, cultural sensitivity and trauma informed care. I operate from a feminist perspective in that I believe that lot of the issues we face today- from anxiety to depression and beyond- are caused and/or exasperated by the systems we create and live in.

If talking about sex feels awkward, you’re not alone, that’s where we'll start. Maybe your sex life has become confusing, unsatisfying, infrequent, or nonexistent. Maybe your sexual identity/preference has evolved. Conversations about sex turn into arguments or get avoided altogether. One of you may feel rejected or hurt, while the other feels turned off, pressured or overwhelmed. I blend attachment theory, EMDR, sex therapy, Gottman principles and Emotion Focused Therapy to help people understand the root cause, identify triggers, & rebuild intimacy and communication. I am BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, ND, Poly/Kink affirming.
