Therapists in Kennewick, WA - Find A Licensed Therapist In Kennewick
While many of us may seek therapy to treat mental health concerns, there are so many other ways therapy can be beneficial. Counseling services can offer support and tools to face life challenges, manage stress, process traumatic experiences, and learn self-compassion.
When it comes to finding a therapist, Kennewick, WA may offer more options than many surrounding rural areas, but finding the right therapist can be challenging even in a city. One reason for this is that there are a number of evidence-based therapeutic approaches and techniques that may be more or less effective depending on the challenge being addressed as well as personal preference. What may be effective for issues related to eating disorders can be completely different from what works for treating marital conflict. What you want and need may not be available in your area. This is where online therapy can help.
BetterHelp is an online platform that offers appointments with local licensed practitioners with a minimal master’s degree level in a variety of therapeutic approaches from dialectical behavioral therapy to solution based therapy. Simply fill out an online questionnaire and BetterHelp will match you with the therapist that best meets your individual needs.
Online therapy can also be a solution for those who don’t feel comfortable in a clinical counseling setting. Video chat, phone, and text messaging options allow you to meet with your therapist from the comfort of your own home or office.
During times of life transition or challenge, therapy can offer additional support and new skills to manage stress and cope with change. Even when life doesn’t feel overwhelming, mental health care can help you learn more about yourself and lead to a more fulfilling life. If you’ve been thinking about therapy for any reason, check out the list of online-based Kennewick therapists below.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in Washington state and have 14 years of experience in the mental health field. I completed my degree in 2000. While earning my Masters degree, I worked in two different inpatient psychiatric hospitals for a year each. Then, I worked for seven years at a community mental health center as a therapist and clinical supervisor. After taking a few years off to be a stay at home mom, I had a private practice for five years and found it was my favorite setting of all. This is my fourth year with Better Help. I have worked with groups and individuals struggling with depression, stress, anxiety, grief, illness, and life change. Additionally, I have assisted people working on relationship boundaries and emotional abuse. My style is warm and caring and thoughtful.

We can look together at your goals and obstacles to pioneer a way through by prioritizing and taking one step at a time.

In addition, I utilize an understanding of neuroscience to help inform what is going on in the brain and how we can harness that knowledge to bring about lasting change.

We can all benefit from someone to talk to, in confidence. Maybe we have some questions, dilemmas, or looking for relief from situations that we are dealing with on a daily basis or just occasionally.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Kennewick?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide.

Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Kennewick therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.
Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.
With a lot of people in WA, therapists may be booked out with clients.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Kennewick, Washington can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
Kennewick has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.
Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you.
