Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Bellevue, WA
EMDR, Lifespan Integration, and DBT all help to heal and restore lives to a place they were meant to be.
Life is unpredictable. As hard as we try to manage our daily lives and our relationships with friends, family, and colleagues, circumstances beyond our control can make us feel lost and isolated, sometimes hopeless. That's why we all occasionally need guidance: to see that there is always hope on the other side of adversity.
My name is Ann Horton, and I specialize in therapies that can help you resolve the personal issues that detract from the joy of your day-to-day life, whether they're born of recent misfortune or deeply rooted trauma.

Hello, I am the owner and Supervisor at Creative Expressions Therapy and I have current availability (Updated August 2024). I believe the therapeutic relationship is invaluable. It is undeniable that the systems we exist in perpetuate dispiriting degrees of privilege and oppression for different bodies, which significantly impact how we relate to our selves and our community. I aim to support you in navigating these systems, to gain insight into the impact it has had on your life, and identify ways to build up and protect your sense of self. I value compassion, equity, creativity, humor, and honesty in my work with clients.

I believe therapy should be a safe and non-judgmental space with a healthy mix of feeling your feelings, accountability, education and humor. My approach is to serve as a partner and guide on your journey to explore and sort the helpful vs. unhelpful in your life. Sometimes this journey will be tearful and uncomfortable, and sometimes we will laugh together at my many metaphors. I am most passionate about working with individuals who feel like they are “not good enough,” worry about living up to others’ expectations or struggle sometimes to get out of bed because their sadness is overwhelming.
