Grief Therapists in Seattle, WA
As an individual and couple's counselor, I help clients during various transitions in their lives who are dealing with challenges in their relationships, the road to parenthood, as well as grief and loss.
I listen, validate feelings, challenge you to inquire within, and help you to develop new understanding as well as practical coping tools to make the growing pains easier. I offer both practical suggestions and questions and curiosity to help you look deeper at behavioral patterns you are either not yet aware of, or unsure how to change.

Nearly 30 years of experience in the mental health and addiction field has helped me to be able to offer an eclectic approach for each person who walks through the door. When cognitive behavioral therapy is needed for solution focused work, that's what we'll do. When a deep dive into family of origin work is needed, we can make that our focus, using a variety of modalities that speak to the individual.

My training has primarily been with teens and adults experiencing a wide array of topics including sexual abuse, complicated grief, religious trauma, anxiety, family conflict, depression, loss, and identify exploration.
I wholeheartedly believe the greatest and most freeing gifts you can give yourself are self-exploration and compassion. Together, we can work collaboratively to further develop these qualities and foster your innate resilience. My goal is for you to feel safe, challenged, and empowered during our time together. The sheer fact that you are seeking support demonstrates immense strength. As a psychotherapist, I aim to create a non-judgmental, open-minded, and secure environment for clients to explore their feelings candidly and honestly. I utilize a variety of techniques and tailor treatment to the unique needs of the client.

Do you feel stuck, anxious, down, or disconnected from yourself or others? Maybe you’re carrying the weight of stress, life transitions, or the emotional toll of adjusting to a new environment? You might find yourself asking, “Shouldn’t life feel more manageable—or at least more meaningful?” You’re not alone. Many people face moments when everything feels too much, and reaching out is a strong and important first step.

I often work with individuals navigating grief, complex trauma, OCD/intrusive thoughts, religious trauma, and neurodiversity.
I love working with teens. These years are so confusing, awkward, exciting, lonely, & everything in between. I want to hear about the show you're obsessed with & the annoying thing happened today, along with all the stuff you don't talk about because it feels like no one will understand. Therapy is a soft space for you to land and explore at your own pace.

I might be the right therapist for you if you are facing life transitions, strong emotions, grief, anxiety, self-judgment, relationship problems or the effects of trauma.
My favorite work is helping people learn to surf the waves of their emotions. I use experiential, mindfulness-based approaches (e.g., Hakomi, Attachment-focused EMDR, Lifespan Integration). If you've done a lot of insight work about your area of concern, but want to add a somatic (body) and/or spiritual focus to therapy, I might be a good fit for you.

Grappling with anxiety, depression, grief or a significant life transition can feel all consuming.
My approach is patient, compassionate, genuine and attentive. As our trusting therapy relationship grows, so can the potential for insight, new perspectives, self-compassion, confidence, and the courage to try new behaviors. Outside relationships can begin to grow and shift naturally, as can times of deeper connection, peace and joy.

I specialize in mindfulness-based therapies and have worked with folks who've struggled with OCD, Anxiety, Grief and Loss, Depression, Emotional Dysregulation, Developmental Trauma and Relational/Family Conflict.
Think of therapy like we're on a ship together. You're driving the ship and I'm the person with the map. My job is to stand next to you and orient us to what's happening as we find the path towards your goals. We will explore the currents, the weather, and any barriers that are keeping you from the life you want for yourself. Beyond where you'd like to be headed, in this therapeutic space- I invite you to come exactly as you are. There is no one to be and nothing to do outside of attending to the person that you are in this moment. I truly believe such presence is the prerequisite to all personal transformation.

I am a trauma therapist in the greater Seattle area, specializing in work with adults addressing the effects of childhood trauma and abuse, as well as concerns related to relationships and attachment. I view therapy as a collaborative space where complex and difficult experiences can be thoughtfully explored and healing can begin. Life can be unpredictable and overwhelming, and our experiences may leave us feeling disconnected. My work focuses on creating a safe environment in which individuals can examine their experiences, deepen understanding of their patterns and narratives, and move toward a more integrated and fulfilling life.

My focus is on women and gender non conforming people of color, and I have a special interest in processing through grief for those who have experienced loss of any kind.
Using the Internal Family Systems model (or "parts work"), my approach is as a gentle guide towards transformation in the areas of grief and loss, somatic awareness, questions of identity (multiracial identity in particular), family of origin/attachment work, religious trauma, parts work (IFS) and life transitions.

I believe therapy is a tool that can help us find things like joy, self-love, clarity, and fun amidst a world where certain realities are appropriately met with feelings of anger, fear, worry, grief, and pain.
Hi! I'm Fox and I absolutely love what I do. Over the last ten years I have worked with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, shame, self-harm, suicidal ideation, interpersonal relationships, past + current trauma, and those who are exploring sexuality and gender identities.
In session, we are a team: I bring knowledge and tools to help water seeds already planted (and maybe help plant new ones or gently dig out old ones). With couples, my goal is to help each person identify their needs and communicate them effectively so you're confident in the decisions you make moving forward, regardless of the outcome.

Anxiety, stress, and depression; grief and loss; relationship, work, and family issues; a lack of meaning; trauma, fear, and spiritual crises… are deeply painful and often signs of incipient growth.
I use forms of Western psychology and Western / Eastern spirituality to help create contexts in which clients engage with inner sources of healing. They also often gain profound insights into the self. Together we explore options for dealing with challenges and changes, and move forward to increase inner clarity, psychological flexibility, and growth.

Reconnect with who you are beneath who you've had to be. What once helped you get through may now feel exhausting, lonely, or limiting. Over time, this can lead to feeling unsure of what you want or need, or stuck in patterns and relationships that no longer fit.
Many of my client's are looking for a thoughtful, supportive process to make sense of their experiences and rebuild self trust. I offer relational, collaborative therapy for people who want place where they don’t have to perform, explain themselves perfectly, or already know what they need. We move at your pace, with choice and autonomy at the center.
