Therapists Beginning With N in Washington

My goal is to help you discover your own strength and resilience and to create the life you want for yourself. I think of my role as your travel partner on your journey to knowing yourself and your motivations better than you ever have before. I draw on 20+ years of experience in human behavior, human performance, and organizational behavior from my careers in counseling, business, marketing and sports.I bring to my counseling a diverse multicultural experience having lived/studied/worked in half a dozen countries around the world. I also created my trade marked counseling approach Positive Existential Therapy.

Being a human can be hard work! Day-to-day challenges can range from the simply annoying to the downright overwhelming. By providing a safe and supportive environment, I help clients find answers, expand their perspectives, and build healthy habits. Using a mixture of assessment and therapeutic intervention, I am committed to assisting you in achieving your best life… and who knows, maybe we’ll have a little fun along the way!

Limited New Client Availability on Wednesdays -in person and/or telehealth I offer a phone consultation if you feel that would help you determine compatibility. I work with issues such as anxiety, self -esteem/worth, body image, transition/phase of life issues, relational issues, grief and loss issues, and simple, intergenerational, and complex trauma. I primarily focus with individuals.

Life can be rewarding, fulfilling and exciting and it can also be challenging, lonely and hard. I am here to help you figure our your path to being your absolute best. I am guessing that you want to stop the worry, the overwhelm, and the noise so that you can get back to feeling better, more like yourself. Maybe the isolation and sadness have been hanging around too long? Let's work together to find another way. Are there some relationship issues or stress either past or present that you want to process? I am here to help.

I primarily work with people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and distress in relationships (whether that is partners, family, or friends). My clients are mostly young adults or older, although I am happy to work with younger children in the context of family therapy. Additionally, specialize in working with those in the LGBTQ+, Ethical Non-Monogamy (ENM), sex worker, and Kink communities.

Hi, thank you for stopping by. I am a bicultural LPC intern of color with a passion for empowering people from a social justice perspective. My goal is to help you reach the goal you want to achieve, whether it is to have less anxiety at work, or have better emotional regulation at home with your children. I practice under cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and narrative therapy framework. I am trained and certified with Trauma Informed Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT).

Life has taken an unexpected turn, you’re trying to make sense of it, your past won’t leave you alone, you’re asking yourself “Is this God’s plan for my life?”, “Now what?”, “Is this all there is?” If you feel stuck, discouraged, anxious, frustrated, or confused about your relationships, health, career, goals, faith, or purpose know that you are not alone. We have all been in this place at some point. We will sort through the puzzle pieces that have been dumped out. We can then look at the image on the box together and start putting them in place to make sense of the messy pile and begin to reveal an unexpectedly beautiful picture.

Oriana is a Latinx, first-generation ciswoman who believes we cannot fully know ourselves without first knowing, or listening to, the story of another. In this relational approach, she is motivated to co-create a space with clients that embraces what it “feels like” to be them. In practice, she is adamant that any therapeutic intervention be reflective of the systems and institutions embedded into society around us. We cannot fully embrace complex identities without first recognizing the environments in which they have responded to.

I focus my therapy working with children, teenagers, couples, families and minority groups. I am invested in an approach that emphasizes a more integrative, dynamic, and holistic approach to mental health. I am particularly concerned with the impact of trauma and loss and improving interventions to support trauma recovery for better relationship, physical, and emotional health. My goal as a therapist is not to fix anyone but to help guide you to find the right path that will benefit you and add value to your life.

As adults, we sometimes forget how tough it is to be a kid. Always being told what, when, and how to do things. The pursuit of autonomy can be a time of great frustration, while the pressures of school, social life, and planning for the future can sometimes feel insurmountable. My adolescent experience was no different. My way of coping was to set a rigid trajectory that left no room for self-exploration. This led me down the path to a career I did not enjoy. It was throughout the course of my own therapy that I learned the flexibility of the mind to acknowledge what wasn’t working and to give myself permission to change.

As an LICSW, I believe it is important to decolonize mental healthcare, reduce harm, and create healing. Therefore, I specialize in providing Affirmative therapy to people across the spectrum of gender, kink, neurodivergence, sexuality, and alternative relationship structures. Affirmative therapy promotes recognition of the rich and unique nature of these communities that goes beyond "friendly and well-intentioned" to providing a healing space. I really enjoy working with folx who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ and kink communities and have several years of experience and training in doing so.

I offer therapy to relieve anxiety and depression and discover the underlying causes. I also specialize in trauma and PTSD. If you've seen other therapists without results, it may be because you've only participated in talk or cognitive therapy. I've found that deeply ingrained beliefs and coping mechanisms that develop when we're young are often responsible for dysfunction or repeated negative emotions later in life. I offer therapy to help you discover the reasons for triggers and patterns of behavior and how to change them. Unfortunately, I do not take insurance.

When that gap between how you want your life to be, and how it is right now gets too big, reach out. Look for an ally to create room for you. To listen deeply. To clarify choices. Clear the way to live in alignment with your values. Find strength to navigate challenges. Maybe you seek to be more free or kind in relation to yourself and others; or to find and hold boundaries to increase safety and well being. Perhaps you would like to unburden your mind and body from past distress.

Are working on the same issues and going in circles? Are you in transition and feeling lost? Are you blaming yourself for not been able to reach your goals? Do you want to have clarity and confidence to move forward? Do you want someone who is an experienced coach to guide you through your life journey with ease and grace? If any of these statements resonate with you, contact Nancy!

For the past 25 years, I have worked with individuals with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief and bereavement, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), sleep difficulties, troubled relationships, marital distress, chronic illness, and life transitions. My practice currently focuses on working with clients who have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and other neurological disorders. I also see patients with cancer across the cancer continuum, from diagnosis, treatment, to survivorship or recurrence and end of life. I am passionate about working with both of these patient groups.

I am a licensed psychologist with over 8 years in practice. I work with children, teens, adults, and families on their journey towards hope, healing, and health. I provide evidence-based, culturally sensitive course of treatment and collaborate with providers across settings to develop a comprehensive assessment and treatment plan. I specialize in working with individuals with anxiety related disorders (including OCD, generalized anxiety, phobias), autism, school refusal, and children with behavioral difficulties and their families. Some areas of growth my clients focus on are emotions, education, adaptive skills, and relationships.

I specialize in therapy for children and adolescents who are struggling with emotional and behavioral difficulties at home or school. I offer a warm, accepting environment for children to learn about and express themselves, play, grow, and heal. Our work focuses on competencies and solutions rather than limitations and problems. Through a holistic perspective we work on presenting problems and overall social and emotional development to promote growth and healthy transitions to adulthood. I work collaboratively with parents/caregivers, teachers and school counselors to ensure all individuals in the child's life have the opportunity to address their concerns.
