Find a Therapist in Arlington, Washington.

Therapy is a way to create your own support system and carve out time in your week that is just for you. I will help you to identify feelings and thought patterns living in the unconscious that are keeping you from moving toward your potential and living a truly authentic life. Our symptoms are like arrows that point to the wound. I follow your symptoms and work with and identify the underlying issues. If given the time and support, the psyche will always move toward healing.

While life can good and satisfying at times--you also know that life can also deal some really tough blows. You may feel exhausted from dealing with the pain of your past...or you may be experiencing inner-struggles that leave you feeling paralyzed...or literally feeling sick and tired of the same conflicts over and over again in your relationships. Our counselors at Mill Creek Family Services come alongside you during these dark and overwhelming times. With care and compassion, we specialize in helping you with proven strategies to help you move through the pain and create the life and relationships you're hoping for.

Psychotherapy is a process of deep exploration that seeks to create a greater understanding of the self. Once you understand something, you will learn skills to create more options so you can make the decision that will enhance your view of yourself, tour various roles in your life, and your relationships. Skills learned in psychotherapy can improve how you assess things (decrease shame, guilt, anxiety, for example), how you understand what others are doing (such as depersonalizing their behaviors, decreasing our reactivity to things they say or do), and improve your ability to communicate your wants and needs clearly and effectively.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

I believe that people get better when they are motivated for change, they learn the skills, and they practice the skills regularly. My part as a therapist is to help you feel really understood and to give you tools,, to give you hope and to cheer you on. The longer I work with people (20+ years), the quicker I am to help you find the solution and help you move to a better place. I like to see changes with each session and some major change in 4 weeks. Most of the time, I want you to leave happier and better than you walked in. Focusing on what works in your life will crowd out the problems. Example: focusing on more safety and peace will displace fear, anxiety and panic.
