Therapists in Kenmore, WA
When you are suffering from a mental illness like anxiety it can be difficult to go out and enjoy anything or go to work. In fact, some days you may not want to leave the bed, let alone leaving the house. There are many trained professionals in Kenmore who can treat anxiety and other mental illnesses.
Kenmore is sometimes referred to as Kenmore by the Lake because it is along the shore of Lake Washington, where many of the townspeople spend their days off enjoying water activities like boating and swimming. If you have anxiety, you may not be able to enjoy anything anymore. Getting treatment from one of the Kenmore therapists can help get you back to the lake or wherever else you want to be.

Greetings, Everyone! I'm Percival Fisher, Jr., but you can simply call me "Percy." With 13 years of experience, I've been dedicated to providing both individual and group psychotherapy. My goal is to assist you in achieving your therapy objectives by creating a safe, warm, and interactive space to explore your presenting issues. I bring expertise in addressing a range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, "coming out"/LGBTQIA-related issues, and family conflicts. To tailor the therapeutic experience to your unique needs, I employ a diverse set of treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Trauma-Informed Therapy, Harm Reduction, Motivational Interviewing (MI), Crisis Intervention, and Relational Therapeutic techniques.

Beyond psychotherapy, my background spans behavioral health research, HIV/AIDS education and counseling, teaching, medical social work, and leadership. During my leisure time, I indulge in watching Marvel series on Netflix, psychological thrillers, reading, traveling, engaging in conversations about current events related to mental health, and staying active through workouts. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to work with you and support your journey. Take care! Percival Fisher, Jr., MSW, LCSW-C. LICSW, LCSW, BCD, CCTP-II, CCM

I became motivated to pursue a career in psychotherapy through my lived experience as a trauma survivor and a recovering addict. My specialties include treating depression, anxiety, relationship issues, chemical dependency, process addictions, and trauma-related disorders. I am fortunate to have had a rewarding and successful career in the mental health field which includes working for 18 years as a fully licensed therapist, providing over 10,000 hours of individual and group psychotherapy, running my own professional training company, and doing research into psychosocial rehabilitation models. My approach to psychotherapy is very client-centered and while I am eager to learn and apply a wide variety of treatment modalities I believe this work is highly individualized. I enjoy working with a diverse client base and my priorities are to build strong relationships and work with clients to apply their individual strengths towards whatever life challenges they are seeking to overcome.

Licensed in both California & Washington, I have been 50 years in the field of counseling & supervisory education. So in semi-retirement, I have a limited number of spaces. Still, I love working with people actively engaged in improving their relationships, building more confidence or addressing life changes. My style is interactive with a bit of humor; and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels, nor do I encourage diagnostic ones. (These are reductionisitic and generally not very helpful.) It takes courage to seek a fulfilling, happier life and step forward into change. If you are ready for that, I am glad to support and facilitate you. PS I do not keep notes; so what is said can be shared with complete confidentiality. Also my intake sessions (just 30 minutes) are for the purpose of checking mutual chemistry for our work together; please let me know immediately if you would like a different therapist. I can help make that happen sooner than later and it saves us both time & effort. Matching to the right therapist is a very large part of session success; so be picky. I look forward to meeting you soon!
