Female Therapists in Seattle, WA

I believe that healing occurs when people are given the space to explore their unique emotional experience to better understand how it colors their worldview, sense of self, and relationships with others. Within a safe therapeutic relationship, I work with my clients to make meaning out of both mundane and extraordinary moments, unlocking their ability to live a more fully present, authentic life.

Being a person in the world today is hard. You might be feeling overwhelmed and stressed. You might be feeling stuck, depressed, or weighed down. Perhaps you have difficulty identifying how you even feel in the first place. Learning how to cope can sometimes seem like an impossible undertaking, but I know that together we can explore ways for you to feel more aligned and energized. I know it can be difficult to find a therapy relationship that feels like a space where you can be vulnerable. I approach our work together with humor, warmth, and realness that I hope will create an authentic space for healing and growth.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who is focused on helping adults who are experiencing distress in their lives. My areas of specialty include, but are not limited to, trauma, Posttraumatic Stress, depression, anxiety, and dissociation. I emphasize an individual's strengths and work to help people feel empowered in their daily lives. I use a variety of tools to do this, including EMDR, DBT, and other evidence based practices.

Relationships are so beautifully complex. The relationship that was created has the power to be your source of joy or your most painful place in life. Unfortunately, many couples decide to stay in their discomfort as opposed to seeking out help and potentially transforming their lives together. If your relationship hit a roadblock, if you feel hopeless for the future, or if you are seeking greater fulfillment in your relationship, I would love to help you.

DO YOU FIND YOURSELF THINKING... "I wish I hadn't reacted that way. ​I feel like I am giving too much of myself to others. I feel burnt out. I wish I had a stronger sense of self. I've heard about intergenerational trauma, but I'm not sure what that might look like." If any of those statements sounded familiar, then you're in the right place. I'm here to help you explore those thoughts and behaviors in a trauma-informed, creative, and individualized way. Let's get curious together.

I believe that most people come to therapy seeking to change the quality of their lives. Some people would like short-term help with a specific issue. Others have less articulated goals and are looking for a deeper relationship that will help effect change over a longer period of time. My role is to provide an open, supportive space for you to explore what kind of change you are looking for in your life as well as to help you realize that change through careful attention, reflection and empathic listening.

Hi I'm Niki! I work with a wide variety of clients including those experiencing chronic illness, anxiety, disability, and mood disorders. My aim in counseling is to create a judgment free space where clients can feel comfortable being their authentic selves in all of their identities. I believe it’s important to meet clients exactly where they are, allowing them to feel heard and supported throughout life's challenges. I strive to create a safe space for emotional expression with clients as well as creating meaningful change in their lives.

I am a bilingual therapist offering services in English and Spanish. I am Latinx therapist that enjoys working with people from different backgrounds through lifes challenges. I have a collaborative and empathic approach to therapy while gently challenging clients. I seek to honor the stories and goals of each of my clients. Together, we can explore narratives surrounding sex and sexuality, navigate through experiences of depression, anxiety, guilt, sexual assault, shame, and discuss matters related to gender expression. My ultimate goal is to empower my clients and provide a safe space where they can feel seen and heard.

Contrary to what movies show you about therapy, I won’t give you unwanted advice or simply nod solemnly the whole session. I bring curiosity, compassion, humor, free expression, and movement to join with my clients and help them explore what healing means to them. I hope to empower clients to access their natural abilities and to gently disrupt the unhealthy patterns we humans often get stuck in using more than traditional “talk therapy” approach. My goal is to facilitate somatic healing, so your whole body begins to feel better as you gain new awareness and get “unstuck” from the patterns you’re ready to release.

I love working with teens (ages 14 to 17) and adults (ages 18 to 50) from different populations and cultural backgrounds who are going through difficult life changes such as independence exploration, career path discovery, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and trauma.

Loss doesn’t only occur when someone dies. At times, the grief that accompanies loss can be debilitating. Whether it is caused by the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, the loss of an opportunity, or the loss of faith in ourselves or our world, grief can make us question everything we know. But you don’t have to go through this alone. Together we can work through the pain of grief to accept the reality of the loss and adjust to living a new and fulfilling life.

My goal as a therapist is to assist clients in living healthy, fulfilling lives. I do this through helping clients identify goals they want to work toward, personal strengths on which they can build, skills they want to develop, and barriers they want to overcome. My work is client-centered and strengths-based, recognizing that change often takes time, hard work, and patience. Thus, I move with clients at their pace, knowing that recovery looks different for everyone and that there isn’t one approach to fit all clients. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe space for clients so they can develop trust and evaluate their life.

Hello, I'm glad you've made it to my profile! I work with adult individuals and relationships, treating issues of relational distress, adjustments to life transitions, struggles with anxiety and depression, and identity development. My practice is founded on the belief that every person has a place in their core where they experience clarity, curiosity, confidence, and calm. And yet, life is difficult. Sometimes we need support to get us back into that place of confidence and clarity—or to find it for the first time. My hope is that our work together can serve as a key support system to bring about the change you’re looking for.

Are you struggling to find balance and communication in your family or relationship? Are you not sure what your next phase of life looks like? Maybe you know exactly what you want but are afraid to commit to it. Has parenting become overwhelming? These are all common issues we face as emotional beings.

I am passionate about providing evidence-based, compassionate care to teens+young adults (ages 12-25) and families. I have worked with a wide variety of clients facing identity questions, anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, adjustment challenges, etc. and create a treatment plan based on each client's unique needs. In our work together, you will learn coping+relaxation skills, deepen your self-compassion, build strength+confidence, and progress towards your personal goals.

I believe that when you have compassion for yourself, a better understanding of your motivations, and a safe place to process your feelings, you can make positive changes and reclaim your mental and physical health. I was trained as a therapist and a dietitian. My training and experience equips me to help you achieve your health goals.

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself or your life’s purpose? Are stress and uncertainty making it tough to envision what you truly desire? I’ll work with you to better understand yourself, leverage strengths, and align with your most meaningful goals. I’m particularly attuned to working with creative, high-intensity, and out-of-the-box thinkers. Constellations of these traits often include aspects of ADHD, giftedness, high sensitivity, and other forms of neurodivergence. I also specialize in issues that emerge at midlife, a unique time in which new stressors and shifting priorities can manifest in unexpected ways.

Accepting clients in 2024! “I got everything I wanted why am I still unhappy?” “Is my relationship worth staying in?” “We can’t seem to get on the same page” these are all things that my clients have said to me and that we have worked together to find answers to. Whether you are experiencing anxiety for the first time or have struggled with it your whole life, you're in a relationship but not sure it’s working out quite like you had hoped, or if you are part of a couple wanting to work on communication and get back on the same page - I can help!

There’s hope for you. I believe in healing. I believe in relationship restoration. I believe in new beginnings. Whether you were hurt by your family, partner, system, church, diet culture, or military conflict, there’s hope for you.
