Eclectic Therapists in Washington

My mission as a therapist is to develop a therapeutic alliance with you. This means I will have to show you my empathy, compassion, dedication and how you can trust me at all levels. I will have to demonstrate my professional knowledge and competency. Once we have that trust between us then our therapeutic techniques can be much more powerful and effective. Working together to accomplish your goals, ease your burdens, and gain you the tools to make your life fruitful and more in your control.

Navigating unexpected situations or traumas, dealing with anxiety/depression can overwhelm our sense of being present in the moment and we may feel trapped inside our feelings. Sometimes difficulties have been present since childhood, left unattended or pushed down repeatedly over the years. Some clients come to counseling seeking ways to deal with a specific trauma, domestic violence, grief, loss, anger, or other distressing emotions, leaving someone feeling isolated, stuck, and without resources. Taking the next step, asking for help inside of counseling, brings you closer to the destination of recovery.

Hi, my name is Heather Gorden, and I am a Licensed Associate Mental Health Counselor. I feel honored you have chosen to work with me as your therapist! I believe in respect, integrity, collaboration, and kindness. This is your journey, and I am here to listen, guide, and encourage you.

Accepting new clients! Taking the initial step to start therapy can feel daunting, but I am here to support you. I work with teens and adults addressing a range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, and self-harm. My therapeutic approach is eclectic and based on individual needs. As a practitioner who has experienced my own healing in physical and mental health, a holistic approach with trauma informed care are key parts of my practice. My goal is to create a safe space for teens to explore their identity and navigate strong emotions and giving adults a non judgmental space to express needs and begin healing.

As a LMFT I have worked over the past 15 years extensively with adults and adolescents experiencing traumas. Trauma can spill over onto family systems, causing pain and suffering to those we love and who love us. Whether our focus together is healing past traumas, unhappiness in relationships, or finding a way to navigate bringing together a new family system - lets start. I strongly believe in the ability of people to heal, grow, and improve their lives within a safe therapeutic environment, to explore their feelings and experiences. I would be honored to be the person you choose to help the healing begin.

Hello there! I have been working with children, adolescents, young adults transitioning into adulthood and families since March of 2019, and I have experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, as well as parenting. Being a nerd at heart, I enjoy connecting with clients over video games and movies with therapeutic approach to help meet their goals in a way that impacts them through their interests.

I believe in the importance of feeling connected in relationships, to our environment, and to ourselves. Addressing the “here and now” that arises during therapy allows our sessions to adapt and work with the difficult emotions or thoughts that come up, in an environment that is judgment free and safe. I specialize in working with those who are experiencing anxiety, depression, agoraphobia, trauma, life transitions, self-esteem issues, grief and chronic pain, among other issues. I am LGBTQIA+, gender-affirming, and enjoy working with clients along the spectrum of neurodiversity and disability.

Life can be difficult and sometimes we can use some extra support.

I provide a safe place to debrief these experiences, identify tools to manage the aftermath, and an avenue to continue serving with pride.
