Jungian Therapists in Seattle, WA

With genuine positive regard and a creative approach, my practice is committed to fostering awareness, healing and empowerment. The therapeutic relationship ultimately deepens the relationship with oneself and how we navigate challenges in the art of living. I facilitate with getting to the heart of the matter, gleaning meaningful insight, and building upon internal and external strengths. I have worked professionally for over 20 years, supporting a diverse population of hundreds of adults, youth, children, couples and families through and beyond, trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, life transitions and relationship difficulties.

Love. Joy. Ecstasy. Awe. In my 18 years of clinical experience, I’ve discovered that we each have far more capacity for these expansive feelings than we often realize. Whether you are contending with many challenges, or feel ready to fly through the stars, I can work with you collaboratively to shape a life that fulfills your highest dreams, and maybe even soars beyond them. I’m eager to share what I’ve learned about our abilities to break out of old patterns of pain, fear, and shame into fruitful creativity and communion with the most inspiring aspects of being alive.

Hello, I am Virginia (Gigi) a psychotherapist, registered dietitian, yoga and mindfulness teacher. I enjoy working with clients who are interested in deepening self-exploration, looking to improve their relationship with themselves and others, and navigate diverse mental health challenges such as developmental and adult trauma, post traumatic stress, depression, and anxiety. I also specialize and enjoy working with individuals that are challenged with disordered eating/eating disorders and who desire to improve and heal their relationship with food and body.

Welcome to counseling; to be helpful lets regain access to inner wisdom for self advocacy through review of your strength base building practices by use of expressive arts therapy (life has been your stage), explore dreams (Adlerian therapies), explore play& traumas to connect with your inner child/teen or find your inner parent, track sensations with the mind, body and spirit for grounding purposes in our sessions. Welcome and thank you for adding me to your search!

The problems and desires you bring to therapy are invitations to heal and grow. I'll help you respond to those invitations with creativity, vitality, and hope. Jung wrote that "The greatest and most important problems in life can never be solved, only outgrown." Such problems, he continued, "fade when confronted with a new and stronger life urge." I'll help you find those new, stronger, deeper, more authentic parts of yourself, and bring them to life.

My practice is rooted in the idea that symptoms such as anxiety, disruption, or discontent can guide us in life if we step beyond formulas and certainties, toward a more curious and imaginative mode of being. By artfully seeking to understand emotional suffering, and through deepening relational connection, we can arrive at relief and healing. Uncovering and accommodating what has been previously outside of awareness releases meaning and allows for greater freedom of thought, self-expression, and wholeness.

Welcome! I'm Lizette, a therapist who's passionate about creating an intentional and affirming space for all my clients. I specialize in working with girls, gays and theys ages 55 and under who experience the struggles that come along with ADHD. Whether you're dealing with the pressures of societal and family expectations, navigating relationships, or managing the day-to-day realities of neurodiversity, I'm here to support you.

In an out of control world, we all retain the human freedom of turning our attention inwards to find meaning and clarity. We all have times when life feels out of balance and the path forward seems uncertain. Our suffering does not have to be meaningless, it can be our most profound tool for personal transformation.

Certain passages in life call one to walk hand in hand with uncertainty. I offer my clients support and guidance through periods of instability, change, and self-discovery. My approach is collaborative and process based, encouraging a sense of trust, safety, and self-agency. Integrating Jungian, psychodynamic, humanistic, and family systems techniques, I work with each individual to develop their inner emotional resources and natural creative resilience.

Would you like to feel more whole, more at ease with yourself, more alive in your life? Coming to psychotherapy, we find we often don't know our hearts and minds, why we suffer, and what will allow change. I offer psychotherapy for late teens and adults wanting to dive deep for real change - greater awareness, bringing light into the shadows, renegotiating who you are and what it is to be alive. I'm particularly oriented to helping unravel complex trauma histories, and supporting those emerging from difficult families of origin where you weren't seen, heard, or given space to become who you truly are.

As a journey therapist, I am most passionate about celebrating the vision of who one can become. My work is exploratory and creative. Together we will become curious about how you can creatively express yourself and expand. My work bridges the emotional, physical, spiritual and energetic realms/bodies. I'm a best fit for couples/individuals who are well enough to be in the mystery of transformation and exploration while ruthlesly journeying for the treasure, their greatness. My core intention is to support you on a journey toward Joy, Clarity, and Personal Empowerment. Mentoring is available as well.

Sometimes little things pile up and become insurmountable. Tension at work, friction with friends, family, or co-workers, recent or older hurts wear you down. Sometimes big things seem overwhelming. Job loss, a death, medical crisis, or moving stop you in your tracks. Sometimes worry or fear attaches to something specific or feels like it is everywhere at once. The support of a psychotherapist can provide a safe haven in tumultuous times. This is a place where you can hear yourself think, express your feelings, hear your own voice, discover your inner wisdom, come to solutions that are authentically yours.

You may be experiencing a great loss, or even many losses from the pandemic, or feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve your growth. You may be experiencing pain or conflict in relationships, anxiety at work, stress from trying to “balance it all”, or residual pain from the past. There may be a sense of increased collective grief and eco-anxiety. The discomfort brings us back into conversation with ourselves- all the parts. From here we begin the process of healing and meaning making, to come to inhabit your life in a more embodied, present, and clear way.

I am a seasoned therapist with a solid background of training in counseling psychology and I keep a very enthusiastic learning edge on perspectives and developments in psychotherapy. I can always find a way to generate an earnest and stimulative approach to working with clients in therapy. I believe that persons seeking therapy hope to find someone who has a mature range of life experience, sophisticated knowledge of the therapeutic process, a tested repertoire of counseling skills and the ability to provide the anticipatory guidance that fosters self-determination and meaningful life changes. I am confident I have these attributes.

Welcome to what may well be a journey of transformation. As a psychologist, neuropsychologist, and Jungian analyst, I am dedicated to facilitating your psychotherapy or neurorehabilitation. My background in neuropsychology, mindfulness, Jungian/depth psychology, and multicultural perspectives enables me to tailor our work, guiding you through your inner struggles, relationship issues, and brain health challenges (e.g., stress, anxiety/depression/grief, trauma, racial identities, LGBTQ+, life transitions, aging, chronic illness, brain injury/TBI/Alzheimer's). Together, we can arrive at a path of growth that makes sense to you.

My clients are primarily women. Whatever calls you to therapy can be the beginning of new possibilities. The pressures of external stressors, anxiety, depression and patterns of living can let us know that deeper changes are trying to happen in us. But how does an inner world reveal itself and offer its un-lived resources? A therapeutic relationship initiates a process of experiencing more about oneself. Many of my clients have been in therapy before and know that such a process can help release new energy and awareness. Listening to yourself sometimes begins with someone really listening with you.

You hope to ease your distress and experience healing, and ultimately, to enjoy satisfying, fulfilling relationships with others and with yourself. You seek the magic that comes from looking within and cultivating a relationship with your own rich inner world- a brave and vulnerable first step to finding wholeness, relief, and self-awareness. Depth psychotherapy is the process of turning inward and examining unconscious aspects of the self that have influenced you outside of your awareness, a practice that not only alleviates symptoms and suffering, but transforms unhealthy coping behaviors and problematic relationship patterns.

Choosing the right therapist is important. I have twenty-four years experience providing counseling, therapy, and group process in multiple settings. I provide respectful, compassionate, and nonjudgmental psychotherapy where engaging in authentic dialogue can lead to lasting change. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, or stressed, I believe you can change your life and become whole and happy. I provide Jungian therapy to individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief, trauma, and relationship concerns. Inner work can be transformational allowing one to release old ways of being.

The decision to start therapy takes courage. It takes a willingness to walk toward your suffering and reclaim the parts of yourself that have been diminished, shamed, and cast aside. I believe that our suffering has meaning and can be the key to deep transformation and growth. If you are called to walk through the doorway of your struggles and find what gifts and insights are waiting on the other side, I can help you on that journey. ​ Our work will go beyond symptom management, into the deep inner territory of self-knowledge and self-actualization.
