Connect with Oppositional Defiance therapists in Washington

Seeking mental health support can be both difficult and empowering. If you're facing life challenges that leave you feeling depressed, anxious, and overwhelmed—whether dealing with past trauma or wanting to develop more effective parenting skills—I would love to work with you toward developing healthy steps using practical tools.

I consider myself a problem-focused therapist, meaning I listen carefully to your unique situation and guide you toward a balanced and proactive solution. Many times, there are no solutions, only different perspectives. CBT, REBT, DBT, and SYSTEMATIC DESENSITIZATION modalities work well in many situations.

I work with individuals facing life challenges, transitions, or struggling with health, mental health, relationship, work, parenting, or family stressors. I specialize in Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Loss, Divorce, and those making significant behavioral changes including Weight Loss and managing Addictive Behaviors.

Do you feel stuck in old patterns or disconnected from your emotions? I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, and I am proud of you for getting started!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps adults navigate OCD, ADHD, ASD, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, and substance use concerns. I use evidence-based, collaborative therapy that emphasizes practical skills, emotional regulation, and lasting behavioral change.

I am down-to-earth, very inquisitive, and love problem-solving.

I have 20 years of experience with severe, acute and chronic mental illness and personality disorders. I work with veterans, first responders and domestic violence survivors as well as anger and behavioral management.

I assist those who have lived experience with trauma, oppression, relationships, addiction to substances or gambling, and whatever difficulties or pain you may be experiencing. I appreciate being in a position to help others navigate the healing and therapeutic process. I use culturally relevant approaches in my clinical work.

Welcome, I’m really glad you’re here. My practice is centered on creating a warm, judgment‑free space where you can slow down, breathe, and feel genuinely supported. I’m dedicated to helping you secure your mental peace, untangle what’s weighing on you, reconnect with your strengths, and move toward a life that feels grounded and meaningful.

Growth and transformation happen within relationship to each other. Together, we will expand the parts of you that are awake and nurture what is longing to be expressed. In a grounded, vibrant, and safe space, we will build a solid foundation for lasting life long healing and integration.

With support, you have the capacity to bring peace into your own life. I work alongside individuals, couples, and families to equip you with tools for sustainable mental health success. We'll prioritize your goals using evidence-based interventions, addressing boundaries, attachment, communication, and emotion management.

Is life overwhelming you? You don’t have to go at it alone. It takes courage to reach out and ask for help. As you begin your journey toward emotional healing and growth, it is important to me to develop a positive connection that creates a safe, comfortable environment where we work together to address the difficulties you are having.

Seeking help is not easy! But you've already taken the first step right here. My passion is to help individuals process the things that are causing them pain, distress, sadness, and/or anxiety.

I’m an attachment-focused, relational therapist who believes healing happens in connection. I help you get clear on what’s most important to you and support you in moving toward a life that feels more meaningful. Along the way, we’ll explore how your relationships and environment shape you, while deepening your understanding of yourself.

I have a mission to help those who find themselves stuck grow stronger through education based on up-to-date information about the mind and body, while allowing for your growth at your own pace. Science has learned that there is a lot more to our problems than being able to 'just deal with it,' and I aim to help you be more prepared in life.

I am familiar with all prominent treatment modalities, and interested in the one's you find most useful. I center my practice on the trusting relationship you and I develop as the first goal of helping you improve your life. I look forward to meeting you!

Does your job demand a lot of you mentally, physically, or both? Has your family dynamic been affected because of experiences from your job? I can help with depression, anxiety, trauma, or life coaching to unveil invisible roadblocks and use coping skills to re-align your life's paths.

I am from Washington State, and I currently live in Birch Bay, WA. I was born in 1990. I'm an avid reader, and I also enjoy chess, meditation, backpacking, hunting, and boxing. I'm a bit of a nerd as well, and I build my own desktop computers. I would say the Pasayten Wilderness Area is one of my happy places.

I create a warm, supportive, nonjudgmental environment where we can work together on anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and life transitions. By integrating cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices, I foster healing and personal growth, guiding you toward a brighter, more fulfilling future.

My life has led me to believe in the power of internal peace. An individual, regardless of one's past, present, and future, is deserving of the peace that comes from loving oneself and being able to show love to others. Ready to learn the tools and foster pathways to create personal peace and fulfillment? You can achieve this and peace with/me.

My goal is to help empower you to find your inner strength, balance, and happiness amongst life's challenges. I work with a wide range of issues at all stages of life, including adoption, anxiety, depression, foster care, trauma, panic attacks, and men's and women's issues.

Together, we'll create a compassionate, supportive environment built on a foundation of trust. I help clients navigate life's complexities, overcome barriers, heal from past wounds, and build a life that feels authentic, empowering, and fulfilling.

I specialize in Internal Family Systems, helping clients identify and understand their various parts so they can collaborate and form a cohesive, integrated self. My approach supports you in moving beyond patterns like Relationship OCD, guiding you to cultivate self-compassion and balance.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience supporting adults, teens, and families. I use evidence based therapy approaches in a collaborative, trauma informed, culturally responsive space where you can feel understood and supported.

Congratulations on starting this journey. Deciding that counseling is the next step and then having to choose a counselor can be a bit overwhelming. I believe you are the expert on you. My role is to walk beside you toward your determined goal: using humor, compassion, and straight talk to highlight challenges and create a new path.
