Relationship Issues Therapists in Hidden Valley, Bellevue, WA

I specialize in helping folks who are navigating difficult situations such as divorce, death of a loved one, family troubles, relationship issues, chronic stress, and low self-esteem. Often these situations can leave you feeling anxious, depressed, frustrated, or hopeless, just trying to survive it all. The good news is that it doesn’t have to be this way. Using mindful, safe, non-judgmental inquiry coupled with practical skills, I will help you to understand and process your own experiences in a way that leads to more peace, ease, and resilience in the face of life’s challenges.

My focus as a psychotherapist is to provide a safe, structured, and supportive environment in which we can work together to discover the underlying issues which affect your quality of life.

I have openings for both in-person and tele-therapy (video or phone sessions) and would be honored to support you during whatever challenges you or your loved ones may be facing. My principle areas of expertise are working with couples, children, teens, and adults experiencing depression and anxiety as a result of stresses in their lives caused by relationship difficulties, family conflict, work/career issues, school-related problems, and unresolved issues from childhood or other trauma.

I help individuals, couples and families deal with the tension that comes with life transitions. My approach integrates counseling and spirituality. It encourages hope and empowerment to the lost, lonely, and left out, allowing them to move to a place of wholeness and healing. Working with a wide spectrum of cultural and religious backgrounds, I have the ability to meet people where they are at in their journey. Over the past 20 years, I have provided pre-marital and couples counseling through various relationship levels including marriage contemplation, pre-engagement, engaged and married to decoupling/divorce.

Taking the first step can feel unsure, but after you reach out and make that call, I will walk with you through what the healing process looks like together - we will figure this out. I specialize in individual therapy and couples counseling, especially when dealing with addiction and/or infidelity. I use well established therapeutic modalities, some Gottman, and the Authentic Self Modality to help you build a happier life. More than anything else, I believe that we can find the answers, together. You can also see me on YouTube by searching: Preston Jones, Infidelity - 6 steps to building a healthier relationship.

In life we have experiences that shape us. Some of these experiences have a major influence as to how we view ourselves and how we view the world around us. These experiences may impact confidence, relationships, and ability to cope. Each day may involve work stress, family stress, relationship stress, financial stress, and ideally we want to find a way to healthily manage all that life entails. We want to learn and find new ways to navigate through our own lives with more balance and positivity.

Clinical Psychology practice with an emphasis on clinical interviewing, psychological and neuropsychological assessment, diagnosis, as well as evidence-based therapies for teens and adults suffering from depression, social anxiety, excessive worry, low self-esteem, insomnia, relationship difficulties, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity. Therapeutic approach combines action with an emphasis on making changes in how one thinks and acts and insight with an emphasis on gaining a greater understanding of the motivations underlying one's thoughts, feelings, and relationship patterns.

As a therapist, I work to develop a relationship of collaboration and attunement to support clients in realizing the change they seek in their lives. I have extensive experience with adults and teens working through trauma, anxiety, and depression, as well as family and other relational issues, work stress and life transitions. I use a variety of practical, skills-based techniques nested in larger life-contexts of family and culture, to explore solutions and rediscover hope. I take an active approach giving feedback, suggesting actions, and assigning homework. Ultimately the client is in charge of his/her own life decisions.

Do you struggle with grief over the loss of a loved one, that affects your day to day life, work, or ability to function? Do you feel down, lost, or numb just trying to get through the day? Or do you struggle with your reactions to people you care about or work with, affecting your home or work relationships? Do you feel that your past experiences are impacting how you show up for yourself or loved ones? Or, are you and your partner struggling through trust and communication, and wanting to find hope together again? Not addressing your grief, trauma, or relationship can lead to the situation worsening. There is hope!

I currently offer Supervision to pre-licensed clinicians in Washington State. For potential clients, I hope that therapy will be a safe place to process life and better understand who you are. My main therapy focus is grief and loss. Many challenges and complications we encounter fall under that umbrella from trauma to fertility to relationship dynamics evolving to identity changing. I'd be honored to walk with you through this season of grief (both death and non-death losses) and the myriad of feelings that come with it. It's okay to ask for help and prioritize yourself. I'm glad you're here.

All of us come up with ways to manage life's stresses. Each one of these strategies was born out of a need to protect ourselves - to survive. Yet sometimes, the methods we relied on to help us out of difficult situations end up being the very source of more difficulties. Perhaps you isolate yourself when relationships get hard and leave loved ones feeling abandoned; perhaps the only way you know how to love pushes your child further away; and perhaps you're an achiever who, when the lights are dimmed and applause is gone, feels endlessly empty and small. Your own stuff is getting in the way of you being who you want to be.

I am a counselor who works with couples, individuals, kids and adults. I work with couples who wonder if the "happily ever after" does exist and couples beginning their married life together and believe that it does. I collaborate with individuals who are finding ways to transform a problem that they have been coping with so that they can live the life they desire. I work with people who have loved someone deeply and are finding that living a life without that person is difficult. I enjoy working with families to help them find peace and happiness in their homes.

I will help you find your own way through the difficulties and crises as they may reveal your longing for more authenticity in life. Anxiety, depression, vague emptiness, sudden anger outburst felt within yourself or in your relationships may be a call for your unlived self so it can be integrated; it doesn't have to be just a problem that needs a fix or correction. This integration is the key to bring completeness and fulfillment in both yourself and your relationships.

Your goals become mine, and together, we'll navigate the path towards a more fulfilling and empowered life.
