Therapists in Seattle, WA

You deserve the very best therapist. Therapy isn’t easy to dive into, right? I get that! My 20 years of combined experience as a LICSW, Music Therapist, Somatic Yoga Teacher (for all body types) and Army Behavior Health Provider has given me rich experience with all sorts of unique people, and I’m not your cookie cutter therapist. I’ll be very real and authentic with you. I deeply appreciate pain and trauma, and how it can dismantle your life. And if I’m not the best therapist for you, I will be honest and help you to find someone who is. You deserve to have the life you want again, and I’m committed to helping you get that back.

Living as a human being is inherently difficult: pain, change, and loss are guaranteed. When you couple these principles with the slings and arrows of trauma and the challenges of our present moment on Earth, our identities can become compounded with suffering and confusion. Knotted up in these ways, it can be difficult for each of us to connect in relationships, to feel fulfillment in our work and passions, and to know who we are. Whether we label this with a diagnosis or simply call it suffering, the effects are very real. I suspect you're familiar with this territory.

I believe in a strengths-based empowerment approach, working together with clients to overcome challenges and find solutions. Helping people find their true authentic self and live a life they love is what I love about being a therapist!

Caleb Featherstone received his undergraduate degree in Psychology and his graduate degree in Marriage & Family Therapy. Caleb has since received additional training in treating trauma with eye-movement and desensitization reprocessing (EMDR). He also has extensive experience working in the field of addiction with residential patients at Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services. Caleb believes that we should be the author of own lives and he implements a collaborative strength-based approach, tailoring therapy to each person's individual needs. This centers around the principles of education, support, and empowerment.

Stressors related to work, relationships, medical conditions and other key areas of life occur every single day, and sometimes they may become overwhelming and out of control. Most of the time, we are able to help ourselves out of these types of situations, but there are times when it is too challenging to handle alone. When that happens, we often find ourselves stuck and unable to react, or continue to use solutions that may not be the best for us. It can be very draining and demotivating, and spiraling out of control. We sometimes want someone to find a solution for us, while at other times, we just want someone to listen to us.

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected? I'm here to help. As an experienced therapist, I support adults navigating trauma, faith transitions, anxiety, depression, and sexual health challenges. Together, we'll create a safe space to explore your story, heal, and grow. Let's embark on your journey to a brighter, more fulfilling life!

Reaching out for help can be the hardest part of the therapy journey. Congratulations for taking that first step! I have over 20 years of experience in the behavioral health and addiction field. I utilize a client-centered approach which allows you to take an active role in treatment, CBT, which is used to assist you in developing alternative ways of thinking to change your unwanted behavior, and motivational interviewing, which is a conservation between client and therapist, with a goal to strengthen motivation and commit to change. Feel free to call or email me with any questions!

Glad to offer immediate openings for clients in WA and ID! I will work collaboratively with you to address your most challenging mental health concerns. It is tough work facing and feeling things we typically want to avoid. As we get started, it’s important to ensure that you feel completely safe to bring your full self into session— thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Our time needs to be effective and results-driven, and in my years in practice I’ve built a skillset that utilizes evidence based practices (EBPs) in tandem with your unique strengths and innate talents and adds to your mental health toolbox.

Choosing a therapist can be an apprehensive endeavor, and my aim is to ensure your comfort throughout the process. I provide a free 15-minute consultation to evaluate if our compatibility aligns for the therapeutic journey and to address administrative matters such as fees and scheduling. Regardless of whether you opt for my services or another therapist's, I sincerely hope you find the individual best suited to meet your requirements. During challenging times, guidance and a sense of being understood can provide solace. I advocate for a non-judgmental environment that fosters support and safety.
