Therapists in Everett, WA

As a National Certified Counselor, I will explore your concerns and assist you in uncovering deeper issues that might be hindering or influencing your relationships and your worldview. Given the unique challenges that each person encounters, which demand subtle and distinct methods of intervention, I trained in both contemporary research-based therapies, as well as traditional techniques (Psychodynamics), so I can offer a variety of tools. “Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.” -- Dr. Viktor Frankl (founder of Logotherapy).

I am a licensed clinical social worker (with a doctorate from Columbia University) with over 40 years of practice experience with children, families, couples, and adults. My approach to our work is "psychodynamic" and I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship. I am open to consultation, crisis intervention, short term therapy, and more intensive, insight oriented treatment. The "ideal client" is the one who is willing to work hard. So am I!

I am passionate about helping people to promote well-being and to manage emotional distress and psychiatric symptoms. I enjoy using psychological theories and mind-body interventions to help children, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds to improve their physical and mental health. I have helped people to reach their physical health goals, heal from trauma, make career and life transitions, grow in marriages and relationships, and build mood and anxiety management tools. My sessions focus on sharing information and skills to address your unique needs and life circumstances. We will develop a treatment plan together.

Let's get started, call me so you can start getting relief from your pain, confusion or fear. I provide psychotherapy and counseling for adults, teens, children and couples. A sign that therapy would be helpful is the presence of recurring pain in relationships, lack of intimacy, loss of friendships, work or career dissatisfaction, shame, physical symptoms or lack of meaning in your life.

Neurofeedback (NFB) relieves anxious, intrusive thoughts with no drugs, no side effects. NFB calms the nervous system, improves sleep, enhances focus which leads to more ease.

I use state-of-the-art technology that triggers the brains neuroplasticity = brain's ability to heal itself. Kids love it. Symptoms of ADHD, autism, sensory issues, rage, depression often resolve. NFB is a breakthrough therapy resulting in greater focus, resilience, joy. www.healthgrades.com/providers/carolyn-hallett-xvqpd

We are all alive and trying to learn something about living; we live the way that we feel. We do this automatically (and whether we know it or not) in relationship: in relating to our self and to others. Therefore, my philosophy is everything is emotional and relational and mindful; everything matters.

Do you or your partner identify as neurodivergent (ADHD, autism)? Are arguments and lack of intimacy making you contemplate divorce? Has infidelity or betrayal trauma caused pain in your relationship? Communication difficulties, anxiety, and breaches of trust can create barriers to intimacy. Working with a specialist who understands the impact of neurodiversity on relationships can help you both thrive. If you have trouble expressing your needs or understanding your partner, I will help you embrace your strengths and learn strategies to become closer and learn to connect on a deeper level. You can have the relationship you desire!

I can help you feel happier & less stressed, improve your relationships, and manage your health issues. If your child, teen, or young adult struggles, I can help them thrive at home, school, & work. I offer individual, family, and group parenting therapy. I've provided psychotherapy for 20 years, and trained at the UW (internship), UC Berkeley (PhD & MA), & Harvard (BA). I'm interactive, practical, and will tailor my approach to you. We'll sort issues, identify priorities, make plans, and achieve goals. I'll teach you effective, evidence-based tools that you can use to live with more ease and success.

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.

Changes and transitions in our lives can provide opportunities for growth and insight. My approach is tailored to each client's need- whether you have a specific goal or are simply in need of a supportive space. Everyone has inherent strength that can be drawn upon. Our work together will center around diminishing the struggles that you feel and increasing your enjoyment of life.

Sometimes in life we all need a “companion on the journey,” someone to partner with us and help make sense of our experience, ease our pain, and support our goals. As a therapist, I am committed to providing a safe environment where individuals can identify their strengths, recognize unhelpful patterns, and live into their goals. Working from an integrative, client-centered approach, I seek to support individuals wherever they are on their journey and my approach is holistic, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I value cultural humility and look forward to working with people of all backgrounds, identities, and walks of life.

I have been providing psychotherapy and consulting services since 1993 for adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families.

(2) Treatment of chronic pain, quality of life issues, and psychology problems due to debilitating or acute illnesses, such as cancer and auto-immune diseases. (3) Personal growth, spiritual development, and wellness counseling. (4) Sports psychology to improve performance and motivation. (5) Cognitive, personality, learning, and pre-surgical assessments.

I specialize neuromodulation therapies. My emphasis is on the interaction of our relationship, the integration of brain, mind and body. What brings you to search for a skilled professional to be present to your inquiry? An inquiry perhaps ignited by an ineffable experience, invoking you to reshape your life, or perhaps an inner call to open deeper connectivity and understanding beyond the multitude of daily cyber interactions? What do you require most to navigate your life through the labyrinth of work, relationships and community? I am available to explore your questions with you, and to support you to awaken to your own potential.
