In Person Therapists in Broadmoor, Seattle, WA

Therapy is an opportunity to engage in a healing relationship unlike most others. The focus is on you: your feelings, your thoughts, your strengths, and insecurities. My job is to support you as you work your way toward understanding, accepting, and growing into yourself. Psychotherapy involves exploring feelings, perceptions, and beliefs about oneself and others, understanding how and why self-defeating or painful patterns of living have developed, and discovering how to modify them. I am committed to helping you discover and speak the truth of your experience, including parts of you that may have been left unspoken and unlived.

Deep inside of you is the awareness of what you need to heal. I help facilitate and unearth that inner wisdom with individuals, couples, and groups. Together, we'll practice tuning into your own unique embodied awareness. From there, we can translate that increased clarity into tangible action that aligns with your greatest, most authentic wellbeing. Our bodies exist within larger systems — many of which can disconnect us from ourselves and each other. We'll look together at the messages we've internalized from these systems in order to unearth the ones that are no longer helpful.

Are you going through a major life transition, such as a recent move to Seattle or a change in the status of your -or a loved one's-job, relationship, or health? Major transitions in life, whether seen as positive or negative, can stir up a lot of mixed emotions and bring up old issues from the past. I am experienced in helping people during times of confusion, grief and loss, depression and anxiety, and struggle with old traumatic injuries. I can help you find compassion, open insight, and create value and meaning from this time of transition.

I offer down to earth, relational counseling. I will meet you with warmth and curiosity, humor and heart, right where you are. I'm here to help as you gather the courage to face your challenges whether that's as your companion, your coach, your consultant or your cheerleader. I help teens, adults, couples and families to address the issues keeping them from reaching their full potential by engaging in honest and direct, yet loving conversations. I help set boundaries and clarify relationships so individuals know where they stand and can gain clarity on what they need to do to reach their goals.

Psychotherapy is meant to address the roots of mental and emotional struggle, rather than just symptoms. In my practice, we can explore your strengths and challenges, discovering over time what motivates you, what may be contributing to your difficulties, and what helps you thrive. You will have the opportunity to get to know yourself and find ways of living that feel satisfying and fulfilling. My approach is intended to help create more room for your experience and navigate your thoughts and feelings with understanding, compassion, and skill.

I am inspired by our ability to withstand and get through tremendous pain. Yet, in a cultural system that perpetuates trauma and oppression, it can be difficult to embody the sense of whole-ness that we desire. I want to walk alongside you in reclamation of your resiliency and vibrancy, finding your most alive self. Whether you are dealing with mental health issues related to trauma, oppression, isolation, relationships, impulsivity, grief, or other life pains; I want to center what matters to you, hold what you have to say with compassion, and help you rediscover a fullness in being alive and in your body.

I work with people to find a path to less stress, more enjoyment & pleasure in life. Working together we can develop & enhance the experiences of your life to feel more whole and fulfilling. Create a life more satisfying; transmute stress causing difficulty into energy for working towards your goals. Sometimes we are stuck in life situations that block creativity and success. Goals often include happiness, pain relief (physical, mental, spiritual, emotional), finding passion, achievement, self-awareness, productivity, insight, more socialization, healthy relationships (a new one), freedom, joy, meaning, and contentment with life.

Overwhelmed with racing thoughts, responsibilities, having to deal with other people, or life in general? Exploring how counseling can help is a brave step! Change is an ongoing process that can be challenging and exhausting. I help you navigate this progression while creating a safe and supportive space to explore and create new ways to transform the areas you have trouble with.

I am a doctor of clinical psychology who specializes in the treatment of PTSD, Mood Disorders, and in particular Bipolar Disorder. I also treat moral pain, or the distress felt when one's actions or circumstances are not aligned with one's values. While I provide a warm and safe therapeutic environment, I am also confrontational when needed. Driven by an appreciation for seeing people step into their full potential, I am unique in my integrative embodied approach. Augmenting gold standard methods like EMDR and IPT, I draw upon my extensive education in Yoga and Alternative Medicine. Expect to do more than talk therapy!

Therapy is hard to define. We each carry our own singular experience into the process: our unique histories, our complex tapestry of relationships, our love, our pain, our wounds, and our scars. Therapy is as unique and complex as each of us, thus we each experience it in our own way. I believe our complexity is a gift, although at times our lives can feel like a mystery, even to ourselves. We feel stuck and confused, unsure of how to heal or grow, and we wonder if we can ever truly thrive. Many of us wonder if there’s a recipe for our healing and growth, or if perhaps there’s a map we could follow, if only we could find it.

Thank you for visiting the referral website and researching this important decision. You have accomplished the difficult first step to creating change in your life. As a therapist I draw from the best evidence based practices to provide a holistic treatment approach for my clients.I work with children, teens and young adults. With all clients I aspire to create therapeutic relationships founded in connection, understanding, acceptance and compassion. I would love to sit down with you, your child or family and listen to whatever struggle you are facing and work collaboratively with you to reach a solution.

Life is hard! Coping with unexpected challenges, parenting, dealing with memories we wish we didn’t have, learning about a new diagnosis or condition, starting a new career or job, all of these things push us out of our comfort zones and we struggle to deal with them. It is totally normal to feel like your world is a bit out of control at times and that you’re not sure what to do or how to do it. People like you reach out to me because they’re tired of their current state of mind, tired of feeling trapped in negative thought loops, and they’ve decided that now is the time for help.

UPDATE: We are currently accepting new patients who are open to working with graduate level students under the supervision of Dr. Holcombe for significantly reduced private pay fees of $75.00 per individual session.

Greenlake Wellness Group is a collaboration of licensed therapists and associates meeting a range of patient needs in a unique, inspiring atmosphere. Depression, anxiety, and trauma can slow us down, but they don't have to stop us. We provide emotional support around relational stress, transitional needs, and the places where you feel stuck. If you're ready to learn about how these symptoms are actually working to tell you something more about yourself, then we can help. We work with highly motivated, hard working clients as they reach for their goals.

I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist with a private practice in Seattle’s Madison Park neighborhood offering individual, couples and family therapy. I’ve worked as a therapist since 2000 in a variety of settings, including private practice, outpatient clinics, group homes, detention centers and intensive outpatient programs. The foundation of my practice is rooted in building a rapport—based on individual connection, trust and mutual respect—with each of my clients. I use an integrative, biopsychosocial approach to develop an understanding of who you are as whole person.

I HELP INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES NAVIGATE CHALLENGING TIMES : Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed and anxious? Are you struggling with family of origin or relationship issues? Do you want to rebuild your new life or perhaps a new career, but don't know where to start or paralyzed by fear? It is imperative to tackle the root causes of your suffering in order for you to move forward. When your regular support system is not enough, it may be time to talk with a professional. As an experienced psychotherapist and coach, I can help you move past self-doubt and fear so that you can be excited about living your life again.

I support people to come home to life and liberation in their bodies. I believe that we heal through the body and that the body is the most direct route towards feeling more alive, more connected, and like your contribution to this world really matters. It is my hope that our work will leave you feeling more free, alive, whole, and capable of having authentic connections with yourself, your body, and others. Through our body-based somatic work together, you will identify what truly matters to you and gain practicable skills that will help to align your actions with your vision for your life.

I'm a culturally informed therapist committed to helping people develop new approaches to difficulties so they leave therapy more at peace and connected. In addition to what brings them to therapy, many of the people I work with feel like they don’t quite belong. They worry about other people's judgements. They may believe that they are not as competent as the people around them. Or they question their ability to be a good partner, parent, or friend. Sometimes they just feel lonely. Therapy is a place where we can make sense of all these experiences and develop tools to move forward with greater confidence and integrity.
