Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in Seattle, WA

You are not alone in your journey, other people feel this way, it is normal.There are reasons why you feel they way that you do. There is hope for all of us to feel better and live the life that was intended for us. I can help you explore those reasons that are keeping you guarded. You do not have to worry so much all the time. You can learn to trust yourself and the world again. Life is beautiful.

I believe that we all have tremendous potential for healing and improving our relationships with ourselves and those around us. From the time we are born, we are met with messages from society at large, the families we grow up in, and the systems and institutions we interact with that inform how we see ourselves. But what if some of that information is flawed? Figuring out our own truth can be incredibly challenging when we have been working with bad facts. I provide my clients with a non-judgmental space to see themselves with clear eyes, and increase safety, harmony and understanding in their relationships, to reach their goals.

Loss doesn’t only occur when someone dies. At times, the grief that accompanies loss can be debilitating. Whether it is caused by the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, the loss of an opportunity, or the loss of faith in ourselves or our world, grief can make us question everything we know. But you don’t have to go through this alone. Together we can work through the pain of grief to accept the reality of the loss and adjust to living a new and fulfilling life.

As a licensed mental health counselor, I work to provide a safe place for my clients to explore their stories, learn about themselves, and progress towards their goals. When therapy concludes, my hope is my clients have a stronger sense of self, more authentic relationships, and a greater understanding of their life's potential and impact. In order to do this, I utilize psychodynamic and existential psychotherapies in collaboration with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).

I support individuals, couples, and families through periods of stress or transition, whether they feel overwhelmed, stuck in negative patterns, or just want to explore and grow. My style is warm, genuine, and down-to-earth. I listen closely, tune in deeply, ask guiding questions, and offer compassionate yet candid observations and a space to explore. My approach is collaborative- honoring clients' feelings, beliefs, and experiences as valid and true and recognizing the powerful wisdom and resilience that all of us possess. My goal is to help clients utilize their strengths and resources to create a life that's nourishing.

I am a Washington State Approved Supervisor and currently have a limited number of openings for clinical supervision. Are you having trouble moving forward and feel tired of being stuck? Psychotherapy can offer you a space to pause and explore your thoughts and feelings and gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships.

*Currently accepting new clients* I believe that our lives are constructed through stories, and the messages we take from these stories might be helpful or hurtful. I will work with you collaboratively to identify, clarify, and create the change you are looking for in your life and relationships. My goal is to create a space that is warm, welcoming, and accepting. I work with people who wish to clarify and express their emotions, deepen intimacy in relationships, and shift their connection to people in their lives. Whether you are building a relationship, working through hurt, or deciding to part ways, I am here to support you.

I have several years of counseling experience across mental health clinics, rehab centers, and K-12 schools, I've had the privilege of supporting folks of all ages, from little kindergartners to wise elders. My belief? It's all about walking alongside you on your healing path, whether you're a kiddo adjusting to a new school or someone navigating life's challenges later on. So, let's take that first step together. I'm here to support you every step of the way.

I have a passion for working with people experiencing life transitions, including divorce or loss, forming new step families, co-parenting, or struggling with parenting concerns. My approach is to explore problems systemically, viewing each client within the context of the world around them. In therapy sessions we will explore trans-generational patterns of behavior that exist within you, and within your family of origin and your family of choice.

I work with adults primarily on issues related to trauma. Trauma often involves lack of control over a situation, so as part of the work, I help my clients regain their sense of power and choice in our sessions. Safety, non-judgement, and kindness are valued in my practice as the foundations of the therapeutic work, and I encourage open communication about the client’s experience with therapy. I offer a flexible approach to counseling because I believe that what works for some of my clients may not work for others, and we learn what that looks like as we work together.

Each person faces their own set of challenges to navigate their path towards personal growth. With a non-judgmental and empathetic stance, I create a safe space where individuals, couples, and families can explore their thoughts, experiences, and feelings openly. My approach is rooted in compassion, transparency, and collaboration, ensuring that clients feel heard, understood, and supported throughout their therapeutic journey. By working together, we can uncover underlying issues, develop effective communication strategies, and strengthen familial bonds.

If you are here that means you are likely seeking support for something in your life that feels difficult, overwhelming, confusing, or painful. My work is to offer you a safe, kind, and accepting space to further explore your internal and external realities. Together we will be curious about your unique life experience, the impact of your experience, the struggles and conflicts you may be facing, and what you need to thrive. I believe therapy is the process of uncovering who you were meant to be before the world told you who you should be or wounded you with its expectations and cruelty.

Hello. My name is Ronnie Kaufman and I've been in the mental health field for over 40 years. I have a Masters degree in Social Work and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My clients tell me that I make them feel very comfortable and safe talking about things they never would have imagined discussing with a complete stranger. I believe that individuals and couples have within them the potential and resources to cope with life's problems. I also operate from the assumption that how we think, feel and behave is usually rooted in our role in our family of origin and is brought into play in our current lives.

These emotional and behavioral patterns seem unshakeable; they show up in relationships and keep you from feeling the joy and genuine connection you desire. You may be able to logically trace these patterns to an origin in childhood trauma or internalized oppression, but in the heat of the moment, it’s as if your body goes on autopilot, and the cycle repeats once again. These patterns have been creating stagnation and isolation that are getting too painful and exhausting to cope with anymore. As a therapist, my goal is to help you transform these patterns so that you can experience a greater sense of agency, belonging, and ease.

Much of my practice addresses individuals with multicultural identities who have been impacted by childhood trauma and other complex traumas.

Taking take both a experiential and narrative approach to listening and understanding your story, I am passionate about working with individuals, families, and teens. I'll help you explore your inner strengths and resilience, and together, we'll find a path forward towards healing.
