In Person Therapists in Tumwater, WA

All are welcome at Abundance Family Therapy! Everyone has times that seem too hard to bear. Life can seem pretty heavy at times, and we just need our load lightened. Sometimes the heaviness comes from feelings of anxiety, depression, life transitions, loneliness, spiritual challenges, communication issues or even relationship fractures. If you find yourself feeling the weight of these things or perhaps other things in your life, please come on in and let me help lighten your load. Although experiencing these feelings or situations remind us, we are human, it is the overcoming that brings peace and growth.

I work with Anxious & Depressed people, People suffering from past trauma, struggling parents and a little bit in-between. Visit our website to explore other counseling options. My practice is here to help you overcome challenges and get you back to living life. Counseling is offered face to face or online (teletherapy) video. I understand that the thought of finding a counselor you trust & feel comfortable with is difficult. Will you join me in helping you achieve your goals?

My ideal client wants to feel more in control of their emotions and reactions. They are engaged and motivated to lead a more fulfilling and balanced life where they can pursue their passions and build meaningful connections without the weight of past traumas or current life circumstances holding them back. They want to reclaim their sense of self and find joy and contentment in their daily life (i.e., less time in therapy and more time living their life).

Accepting new clients. Life can be hard, challenging, and at times can feel truly hopeless. There are times you may experience life controlled by intense emotions or paralyzing anxiety/fear and detached numbness takes over. Traumatic memories that are overwhelming, causing insomnia or night terrors. Relationships suffering from conflict, lack of intimacy, and distraction are inevitable. Teen conflict, locked in power struggles without solutions that result in endless frustration dominating your time. There IS hope! Learn to implement key changes and create shifts to overcome even the most challenging obstacles.

I offer therapeutic companionship for adults who are experiencing grief and loss, anxiety, depression, self-doubt, burnout due to performance and perfectionism, relational troubles, and creative blocks. I am an apprentice to grief and intrigued by the relationship it has with being alive. I am here to bear witness to that grief and honor it rather than "fix" it. We will focus on identifying the conditions necessary to help you life a wholehearted, self-led and textured life, where you get to feel the full range of emotions.

If you notice yourself struggling with a specific area of your performance, such as confidence, focus, leadership, resilience, consistency, or you’re trying to generally grow and improve areas of your life, or even working through change, our work together will be transformative. I am a Mental Skills Consultant, meaning our focus together will be directed at improving your life through mentality in an Evidence-Based practice. It will not be clinical or focused on disorders, however, I will provide tools and support to manage, prevent, and cope with many disorders if needed.

Whether a major life event that has thrown you off track, or over time you have realized that you are not where you want to be in life, therapy can help. It is common to find yourself feeling lost, unhappy, overwhelmed, or disconnected at various times in your life. Therapy can provide you with insight to find new ways of dealing with things that bring about positive changes, quicker than you realize may be possible.

I believe that your experiences do not determine who you are, but help shape the view you have on the world. You are not wrong, bad, broken, or needing fixed. It is okay to ask for help understanding the thoughts and feelings that can be painful and confusing.

Accepting new clients! Growing through curiosity is at the forefront of my practice. I believe that all clients come to therapy with a goal in mind – to reduce discomfort in their lives, manifest change, implement better boundaries, build self-esteem, or become a better version of themselves. Whatever the goal is – I am here to help. Growing through curiosity invites clients to think outside the box and develop strategies for solving their own issues.

At Mind Over Matter Hypnotherapy we take a client centered approach to our sessions personalizing each session to the wants and needs of our clients in order to get directly to the root of the issue.

I work best with clients facing life transitions, trauma, and interpersonal issues. I believe I can help those who seek developing skills for resilience and a greater understanding of their situation. I aim for healing, better communication, and life fulfillment. Embracing a holistic perspective, I employ strategies for emotional well-being and meaningful connections. My approach focuses on interconnected well-being and interdisciplinary therapeutic techniques, guiding people towards their counseling goals.

I'm here to offer a safe, comfortable, accepting environment to process your goals, needs, and challenges. I affirm and celebrate everyone's identity and values. Your goals are the ones that matter in therapy. I want you to be comfortable while connecting with someone who authentically cares about you. I believe we are all doing the best we can. Whether age 2, 102, or anywhere in between, I am here to support you. I love working with children, teens, and adults both on and off the autism spectrum. I have also worked as a grief counselor with Hospice, and walked beside many people on their journey of grief.

In the field of mental health, we talk a lot about issues and disorders. But that overlooks an important question: What does it mean to be mentally ordered? What would a mentally ordered life look and feel like? What would be different? If you have been stuck in a rut (or find it hard to get out of bed), if you have been unable to stop doing things in ways that don’t work, or find you get in your own way and find it’s time to develop more workable ways of seeing and acting, therapy can help with that. In my practice I utilize approaches that include CBT, trauma and attachment, acceptance and commitment, and evolutionary practices.

Therapy is a healing journey you decide to take for yourself, like a road trip or a walk in nature. You chose your path. You decide turns, destinations, stops, starts and what to say and do along the way. I am here helping you navigate your healing journey in therapy. I will be your guide providing you with routes, options and tools to support you. Life can be hard, unexpected and busy. I provide a safe, private space using ‘talk therapy’ to discuss things challenging you or your struggles. We work on solutions together, as you and I help you work toward the goals you want to achieve by using your natural gifts, strengths and gr

There are countless reasons people consider engaging in therapy. Managing the complexities of everyday life can often leave us feeling isolated and inadequate. Learning to make meaning of our challenges without judging ourselves can seem impossible. Do you feel as if you are caught in a situation that is no longer sustainable? Are you eager to learn new strategies that will promote change? The psychotherapy process is an excellent option to help manage everyday life and can help you to sort through the challenges so you can experience life in a more authentic way. It is time to rediscover your inherent gifts and strengths.

I help parents and caregivers seeking a better relationship with their 3 to 12-year-old children. While working to help children learn to manage their emotions, I include parents/caregivers to help them understand their child's behaviors. Understanding why your child behaves in a certain way will allow you to respond to them in a more attuned, empathetic, and responsive way.

I am a psychotherapist who works with grief, life transitions, and chronic pain. With my background as a medical social worker in both hospice and home health, I have seen how my clients’ experiences were often isolating and mentally draining. The losses that come with any life changes, even “good” ones, are not always obvious. In order to help my clients create a path forward, I take a constructivist approach and pull from a variety of modalities, including ACT, narrative therapy and attachment-based therapy. If you think I would be a good fit for you or have any questions, please feel free to reach out for a consultation.

Hi! I serve adults and young adults over the age of 13 dealing with many different life challenges and choices.

I specialize in Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar I/II, and PTSD/C-PTSD with competencies in additional areas and populations - please reach out to see if we're a fit.
