Relationship Issues Therapists in Mead, WA

I deeply enjoy being a therapist and working with all types of people. Relationship issues and eating disorders are a couple of areas that I specialize. I have an attachment focused approach that integrates several interventions such as ACT, DBT and mindfulness.

Are you wanting to reclaim your authentic self? You want to be more in control of your anger and emotions, not be taken for a ride again and again. You "know better" yet are frustrated that you keep doing the same thing. Or maybe you're in a relationship that's disconnected and you want to revive the love and intimacy? These can be challenging issues to face alone. Unfortunately, many people learn to tune-out or dissociate in these situations, which can cause more difficulty and lead to feeling stuck or hopeless. I focus on integrative practices that address your mind, body, spirit and emotions - it's not all in your head.

You have your own personal journey that has brought you too today. Each individual, couple, and family have unique circumstances and personal aspects to bring to the therapy process. You are recognizing it would be helpful to talk with someone that can help sort out the thoughts, emotions, and life situations that led you here. Working together we can determine what is significant to your journey. We will build a relationship that is safe and open to explore vulnerable aspects of your life that will lead to personal insights, improve coping skills, and create lasting change.

Are you experiencing difficulties within your relationship? Are you a loved one of a family member struggling with substance abuse trying to find your place? I work with individuals and couples looking for a place to grow individually or to connect more in their relationships. I assist clients identifying negative patterns, aiming to foster a relationship to help them feel less alone, lost, or frustrated with their current issues. My work is highly attachment-based, a framework that focuses on the impact of early relationships on an individual's emotional and psychological well-being and how that shows up in the present.

Tharseo Counseling Services was founded around one idea: hope through a relationship with Jesus Christ. With hope comes the possibility of change, growth, and purpose. Without it, we can feel isolated, burdensome, and despairing. Tharseo exists for two reasons: First, to help the hopeless find their source of hope in Christ, which allows them to walk securely through life with conviction and purpose. Secondly, Tharseo assists those already with that hope to navigate obstacles that threaten to misalign them from their known purpose. We do this by integrating biblical principles with practical application.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, lonely, sad, overwhelmed or confused? Feeling like you have lost yourself, or perhaps never knew who you were to begin with? My role is to fully understand who you are and where you are at in life, and use my 25 years of counseling experience to work with you and that knowledge to get you back to enjoying your life.

My experience is primarily with children, young adults and couples. I also work with depression, anxiety and traumatic experiences. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy and have extensive training in couples counseling techniques. I enjoy humor and like to use it in therapy when appropriate.

If you have a desire to make changes, but aren't sure where to start or don’t feel like you can do it alone, therapy can help! Stressors like communication issues or strife with your partner or family, anxiety or conflict at work or church, and past abuse or other traumatic experiences can all weaken the body's ability to be as effective through life. Having an intentional time each week to focus on yourself and your connections and stressors is what therapy can offer. It's a time to pause, reflect, and dive deeper into what's weighing you down and shore up what matters most to you.

Welcome! My name is Conner. I am passionate about stories, life being the greatest of them all. Sometimes along the way you feel stuck, trapped in a world that feels exhausting, confusing, even unbearable. These feelings may be new to you, whereby you find yourself in uncharted territory at a critical moment in time, unsure of what to do. Or perhaps you have found yourself in this position previously, wondering why these feelings keep resurfacing. The best part about this story of life is that what happens next has yet to be written.

Connecting with others in a positive holistic way can be a key to helping you experience a healthier and happier life. Choosing someone to empower, educate, and walk your path with you is an important step to gaining that experience. I approach counseling with the belief that YOU have the strengths and inner-knowledge you need to reach your goals. Healthy connection is the key to a happier life and I incorporate a holistic, mindful and nature-focused practice to facilitate your connection to yourself, others, and the world around you! I am here to assist in facilitating change and healing by encouraging connections in your process!

Are you frustrated and feeling hopeless in your relationships? Do you argue with your partner without solving or even understanding what the problem really is? I specialize in working with couples who are struggling to connect. If you are desperate for communication and building trust, counseling can make a big difference. Whether you are looking for an individual, couples, or a family therapist I can be helpful as you discover new answers to the frustrations that have become exhausting. Let me help you focus your energy on actually solving problems, being understood, and feeling peace in your life.

At times the challenges life puts before us can become overwhelming. I believe that by working together we can overcome these challenges. I have had over 25 years experience working with children, adolescents, young adults and families. I have focused on depression, anxiety, grief/loss, obsessive compulsive disorders, stress management, PTSD and a variety of other behavioral and emotional issues. In my practice I utilize a variety of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

Hello, my name is Benjamin Menard. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker beginning my private practice in Spokane. My specialty is non-directive play therapy for children ages 4 – 12. I use this client-centered approach with the theory that children use their play to communicate more effectively than language and typical talk therapy. I see play therapy as a way to meet children where they are and learn from them about their world.

I am experienced in individual and family therapy and utilize evidence based practices along with empathy, collaboration and humor to address your unique concerns, needs and circumstances. I have a wide range of experience with many different issues, including depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, trauma, grief and loss, relationship struggles, behavioral issues and parenting skills. I primarily work with clients from school age to middle adulthood.
