I specialize in Family Based Treatment (FBT), and cognitive behavior therapies (CBTs) for anxiety and depression, especially Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I am an experienced licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in the assessment and treatment of eating disorders, anxiety, depression and relationship issues. I also teach emotion skills classes. I am also a registered dietitian (RD), which enables me to provide nutrition assessment and counseling for persons with eating and weight concerns or eating disorders. I support and guide families through relational conflict, psychiatric illness and loss. I enjoy working with males and female children over age 12, adolescents and adults.

I can best describe myself as a Competency-based, Cognitive- Behavioral, Family Systems therapist. Practically speaking, that means I have great respect for the challenges we all face in our lives and consider most so called "problem-behaviors" as logical adaptations to difficult situations that simply have outlived their usefulness. Therapy sessions strive to identify out dated problem solving strategies and replace them with newer more effective solutions. While I utilize a number of treatment techniques, I rely most heavily on Cognitive- Behavioral, Skills Training and Family Systems approaches.

For children I engage via experiential, therapeutic games, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT).
I am accepting new clients. My clients are adults, children, and families. Adult clients are usually motivated to enter therapy by intrapersonal or interpersonal issues. Children often present internalized or externalized behavior problems and are brought into therapy by a concerned caregiver. Children may be depressed, withdrawn, angry, defiant, or underachieving. Therapy with children is very different from therapy with adults and requires an approach that is developmentally appropriate. I provide a confidential, safe place to explore psychodynamic issues and collaborate on approaches that feel right for you.

For this reason, in my work with adults, I largely use a combination of Cognitive behavioral therapy and Restoration therapy.
Finding a space where you can be fully accepted and known while being encouraged to meet your full potential is rare. This is the space I strive to provide in my office. My name is Laura Matheson and my passion is partnering with adults, adolescents, children, and families to facilitate them in developing better relationships, overcoming anxiety and trauma, and growing in their areas of strength. Through individual, parenting sessions, evidence based treatments, select toys, games, arts, and crafts I will help guide you or your family to develop effective ways to express emotions and thoughts.

I am trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness.
Immigration evaluations and teen support are my passions. I enjoy working with people of all races, ethnicities and cultures, and I am passionate in advocating for social justice issues. I believe that when transgressions occur and cause trauma, one should have a place to find safety. I myself have Dyslexia and HSP (Highly Sensitive Personality), which have presented challenges in my life, but I have learned to use them as the gifts that they are. For example, being highly sensitive enables me to be an excellent empathetic listener, and my dyslexia sometimes allows me to see possibilities for growth that others might not.

Areas I offer testing for include: ADHD, Autism Spectrum, Learning Disorders, Dyslexia, Intellectual Disability, Behavior Disorders, Personality Disorders, Mood and Anxiety Disorders, IEP or 504 plan, school placement, giftedness, and testing for qualifying for state services.
My philosophy is that "knowledge is power" and I believe that every predicament can be an opportunity to learn and grow, but most importantly, the first step is to identify the problem accurately. As a Clinical Psychologist, I am passionate about helping my patients gain insight about their mental and emotional strengths and vulnerabilities through an objective and comprehensive evaluation by using standardized measures. Once all the information is gathered, I will offer extensive feedback regarding the results and make recommendations to help you or your child get the treatments or services needed. I work with ages 4 - 59.

I focus on helping people understand how aspects of their personality have developed so they can better understand their current thinking and behavior.
I believe people change when they are truly ready and searching for a counselor is the first step towards making the changes you desire. I want you to feel progress as quickly as possible and I believe my job as a clinician is to help you develop a closer relationship with yourself so that you will be more in tune with how difficulties in your life develop and impact your well being. We will work together in a safe and non-judgmental environment to develop goals, increase personal awareness, and reduce distress so that life becomes more manageable and fulfilling.

My therapeutic approaches include CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), CPRT (Child-Parent Relational Therapy), EFIT (Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), with a culturally appropriate framework, congruent with clients’ level of acculturation and desire to reach equanimity.
I love counseling, coaching and consulting. In delivering these approaches to enrich my clients’ lives, different modalities are used. These include and are not limited to cognitive behavioral, emotionally focused individual therapy, and humanistic/existential format – pinpointing where the client is at, promoting an understanding of their subjective experience while also honoring their past experiences. For some, recognizing and bringing awareness on how those experiences influence their present lives cultivates healing- one goal being maximizing an individual’s potential to enrich their lives according to their core values.

I was trained in the Psychodynamic theoretical lens and I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Systems, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Humanistic theories into my work with clients.
I believe that having a compassionate and non-judgmental person to talk to can feel like a breath of fresh air. If you are feeling ready to begin exploring your thoughts, feelings, behaviors and experiences in order to gain insight and find solutions, I would be honored to help.

A few modalities I practice are Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
Life never goes the way we plan, especially during adolescence and young adulthood. It feels like you know everything yet as time goes by, you realize there is so much more to learn. Once you think you have it figured out, life happens and your path completely changes. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Washington State, I offer Individual Therapy to Adolescents and Young Adults. I support clients experiencing challenges with academics, socializing, communication, problem solving, and time management. We will work together to determine your strengths and how to help you move towards positive change.

Trust, initially, is not earned, it is a risk. And so it means if you experience distrust upon our first encounter, well then you might just be a member of the human race. The safer someone is, the more likely they are to venture into trust, and so this is the primary specialization of therapy, to create a space that is safe. There are varying degrees of safety, but for the most part it comes when: you can be yourself, feel acceptance and positive regard, do not have to protect yourself from abusive behavior, experience confidentiality and kindness, a willingness by someone to help, and that the person before you is authentic.
