Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Puyallup, WA

As we venture through life, sometimes we find that the expectations we set for ourselves, our partners, and the future are constantly changing. My hope is to ease you through life’s transitions while enriching the relationships you have. I believe therapy should be a safe, non-judgmental, and nurturing place to put down the weights and ease into meaningful conversations. I enjoy working together with clients to identify their strengths, explore ways to reconnect with themselves and others to move forward in ways that feel genuine.

People see counselors for many different reasons. Some folks have mental health struggles such as anxiety or depression and therefore come to therapy for treatment and help. Others come to therapy for other life problems such as relationship problems, stressful work environments, worries about their future or their kids, struggles with their faith and spirituality, or grief and loss, etc. Counseling is an investment in the betterment of your life.

My name is Shirley Shen. My theoretical orientation is primarily based on the attachment model, believing that the most innate and important need as a human is that of secure attachment. Disruptions in attachments impact patterns of behaviors through the lifespan and play out either consciously or unconsciously in everyday relationships. Book with me now by clicking on my website.

My name is Melissa Grossman, and I am a licensed mental health therapist for Washington State. My therapeutic approach in supporting clients who are faced with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and more, is based on trust, client-centricity, and mindfulness. I work with clients who are challenged by anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, eating disorders, and stress management.

You're someone who is looking to find just the right fit in a counselor. Maybe you are experiencing grief, or having difficulty adjusting to life changes. Perhaps you have a general sense of dissatisfaction with life, or have specific things you want to work through. Or, maybe you're feeling trapped by anxiety, or past trauma, and you want to feel a sense of hope; to be seen, heard, and understood. There is no "one-size-fits-all" approach to therapy, and the things you may want to work on are important and unique.

At Malagon Healing, we believe in the power of connection and the transformative impact it can have on your healing journey.

Life can be challenging, confusing, and down right overwhelming. Sometimes we bury our trauma, hurt, and confusion attempting to cope, or our ability to cope is inadequate to the challenges we face. You have been making it through life, even accomplishing wonderful things, but often wearing a mask and feeling like you are barely keeping it together. Your resilience is obvious, but maybe you are still troubled by your past and how it has affected who you are. Maybe today’s challenges are beginning to weigh too heavy for you to work through them alone. You have survived, but now it is time to thrive and live your life to the fullest.

Whether you are experiencing internal distress or distress in your relationships, I am here to help you work toward building your desired future one step at a time. Together, let's make this a mindful kaizen.
