Therapists in Seattle, WA

I enjoy working with children, adolescents and adults in both individual and family therapy. I work well with clients with trauma, anxiety, depression, those facing life transitions or grief and loss. I have recently published an eBook on anxiety for teens, But Breathing Doesn't Help! Unlocking Teen Anxiety by Understanding Your Body, which can be found on Amazon, or for direct purchase at https://wendynystrom.selz.com/

Hello, I am the owner and Supervisor at Creative Expressions Therapy. We are a small, but slowly growing practice with current availability. We believe the therapeutic relationship is essential for growth. We focus on getting to know the way you experience yourself, your world, and others around you. The systems we exist in perpetuate dispiriting degrees of privilege and oppression, which significantly impact how we relate to our selves and our community. We aim to help navigate these systems and gain insight in order to make meaningful change. We value compassion, equity, creativity, humor, and honesty in our work with clients.

Are you struggling with navigating feelings of anxiety, depression, suicidality, substance abuse, attachment trauma, or self-harm? I am passionate about supporting people of all ages to heal from difficult or traumatic past experiences as well as supporting clients navigating life’s unpredictable challenges. I enjoy working with helping clients navigate emotional regulation, and becoming more self-aware and empowered.

I specialize in working with children, teens, and adults who might be struggling to make sense of the complicated world that we live in. Despite our connectivity, it seems that we live in a time in which individuals and families are more isolated than ever before. I truly believe that we all need and desire a village — a network of support and care to help us when needed. It is my aim to be that extra form of support. I am here to help individuals and families navigate the more difficult hurdles and to find ways to work towards creating more peaceful, authentic, and connected lives.

I have a passion for working with young adults 18-35 and adolescents 13 and older, who are exploring their identities and trying to create their place in the world. Whether this includes healing past trauma, increasing coping skills or changing relational patterns, our work together can address a variety of topics, like increasing healthy coping strategies for anxiety and depression, breaking the cycle of perfectionism and self-judgment, increasing self-compassion, LGBTQIA+ identity exploration, family of origin issues and learning how to set healthy boundaries in relationships.

Whatever you bring to the table, I begin each therapy journey by developing an understanding and warm relationship where I encourage imperfection to show up so that you can be deeply seen and known. Most importantly, I work to meet you where you are and tailor my approach and interventions to your individual needs. Together, we build a safe and compassionate space where you get to honor your story and find the healing you're seeking.

I work with clients who are dealing with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, challenges with self-worth and unhelpful thinking, trauma, PTSD, relationships and feeling stuck. I help clients realize their innate wisdom, achieve their goals - whatever they may be, and find new ways of being in a world that is constantly full of challenges. I also work with parents who are struggling with their roles as parents, dealing with guilt and shame that oftentimes comes with parenting and help to find positive solutions with childrearing.

My professional orientation is very eclectic. I combine a Jungian philosophy with CBT and DBT interventions with a client centered approach that involves a caring and insightful focus on self, others and community. My intention is to collaborate fully with each individual and to assist him or her in changing the trajectory of his or her life in a positive way. I view self discovery as an essential part of our unfolding experience together and value our time together. To become an agent of change in one's own life takes tremendous courage and strength; I can help facilitate this.

My therapy practice is centered in helping people discover the strength they already have, but have been struggling to use. Therapy can be useful for anyone, but sometimes finding the strength to seek out help can be the hardest part. I use a non-judgemental, empathetic, and casual approach with my clients to meet them wherever they are in their lives. Together, we establish goals and solutions. I work with those who are struggling with self-expression and effective communication as well as those who are having difficulty with identity exploration within and outside of relationships.

I offer individual sessions tailored to your unique needs, with a focus on creative solutions that promote healing and growth. Over the last decade and more, I have worked in mental health and behavioral health fields, with the majority of my time working with adults and children with developmental disabilities. I have also experienced my own interesting journey navigating relational trauma, chronic health issues, and learning that I have ADHD at 30 years old. I know first hand many of the struggles disabled and neurodivergent people face and I use this experience to help my clients better their own lives.

As a licensed mental health clinician, I am here to help you achieve personal empowerment in all areas of your life. I will help guide you in addressing issues that may be present in your life, that you feel, might be holding you back from reaching your goals. I offer help with navigating anxiety, depression, phase of life transitions, parenting, sexuality, gender, chronic pain/illness, perinatal mood disorders and more. I am an LGBTQIA+ and gender affirming therapist navigating gender identity, inclusion and equity. Let’s work together to actively identify and start living by your own personally empowered best life!

I will support you in leading the life of your dreams, understanding that the change we do together in therapy is a microcosm of the change that occurs in our communities!

Traditional psychotherapy works toward congruence in a persons thinking, emotions, actions, and life choices. Body-oriented therapy understands that the body is also profoundly affected by our life experiences. Identifying and releasing attitudes and old images held in our physical structure adds an important component to therapy. This promotes lasting change, allowing for free flow of life energy from within us so we can more fully realize our life, our joy. I am also founder of the Seattle School of Body-Psychotherapy, and enterprise of Body-Psychotherapy of Seattle.

I am an artist/poet turned therapist. My method is to slowly build a therapeutic relationship, uncover strengths, and move toward client-identified treatment goals. I support clients to externalize problematic narratives or inner states they are stuck in through creative mediums. Once clients are resourced and can see, and then interact with their patterns and parts they make changes. Together we discover and incorporate parts of the self that had to go underground due to trauma or oppression. Clients emerge from their work, whole and empowered.

As a woman with ADHD, do you feel that your ADHD is impacting your relationships, self-esteem, goals and/or work? Do you find yourself saying sentences like, ‘I should…, ‘Why can’t I just...’, or ‘If I wasn’t so lazy…’? What if you could find strategies that could help you manage the things that feel like they always are falling through the cracks? Women with ADHD often experience ADHD differently than the stereotypical symptoms. What if you could find validation and understanding of your experience? Whether you have been diagnosed with ADHD for years or just starting your journey, your ADHD doesn't have to feel like a burden.
