Therapists in Snohomish, WA
If you have ever been in a traumatic situation such as an attack, physical or sexual abuse, war, or a natural disaster like a tornado or hurricane, you could have post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD. Some of the symptoms include nightmares, flashbacks, panic attacks, racing thoughts, rapid heartrate, and even chest pains and dizziness.
Luckily, there are some fantastic therapists in and around Snohomish who are trained in diagnosing and treating PTSD and other mental health issues. Snohomish also has some great places to enjoy after you get treatment that you would not be able to enjoy with PTSD such as Ferguson Park, Blackman House Museum, and the Snohomish County Centennial Trail.

Hi Everybody ! BH is terrific and I am so pleased that you have found the courage to ask for help here :) I am a Clinician licensed in the States of Oregon, Texas and Washington with over 20 years of experience. I work in private practice with individuals and couples who are struggling with a broad range of concerns, including anxiety-related disorders, clinical depression, PTSD as well as Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. I also have extensive experience working with children and their families. I have broad experience with a large variety of populations, including Veterans and Trauma survivors. Since I worked as a medical social worker for a significant number of years - I have also worked with women and men struggling with cancer and chronic pain - as well as the rare diseases: infantile nephropathic cystinosis, intermediate cystinosis and non- nephropathic cystinosis. I have experience with Huntington's disease as well. Additionally, I enjoy helping clients who suffer with infertility-related problems. This was a personal journey close to my heart that also led me to want to help women who are struggling to have a baby and those who have suffered a miscarriage or a stillbirth. My counseling approach is warm and interactive. My clinical approach consists of multiple theoretical backgrounds. A few include : humanistic, dialectical behavior counseling, mindfulness, acceptance therapy, cognitive-behavioral counseling and counseling aimed at helping those to resolve trauma. The only time that I would incorporate psychoanalytic counseling would be to help the client to understand how the past could be contributing to her or his present circumstances. I do not consider stigmatizing labels to be beneficial in the helping process. When I am not working in the field of counseling - I work at my fundraising business to help women get their lives put back together following assault or domestic violence. I also volunteer for an organization that helps to stop domestic minor sex-trafficking. It takes determination to seek a more rewarding and happier life. If you are ready to take steps toward change then I will be with you to support and to empower you ! I am pleased that you are here at Betterhelp.

For over 30 years, I worked as a licensed (LICSW) mental health therapist, mental health manager and founder/director of a non-profit health/mental health support and advocacy organization. I’m a psychodynamically-oriented therapist, meaning I believe we exist on many different levels (physically, intellectually, emotionally, sexually, spiritually, etc.). As such, I'm interested how all those levels interact with one another and, along those lines, how we unconsciously sabotage ourselves without meaning to. Psychodynamically-oriented therapy is not appropriate for all clients, however. Specifically, it is not for clients who are struggling with intense and overwhelming emotions, self-harm and suicidal ideation, psychosis, borderline personality disorder (BPD), addiction and various other issues. Those clients need a very different approach that, optimally, may involve worksheets and tutorials designed to help them acquire the skills to regulate their emotions and achieve their stated goals in the fastest possible way. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) are two of the more popular and effective exponents of the second approach. That's not my preferred approach, however, noting that each therapist has clients they work well with and others who are simply not a good fit. In a very general sense, I’m interested in how a client might express or fail to express their intellectual/emotional integrity and authenticity; in how they can attain a greater integration and capacity for intimacy, spontaneity and creativity; in how they might attain a greater sense of wholeness; and in how the corrosive effect of their unfinished business from the past unconsciously keeps trying to find closure in the present. I'm also interested in the GLBTQ+ community and in human sexuality in general, including shame, guilt and repression. Last but not least, at the existential level, I'm interested in how we are coping with the collective crisis through which we are all presently passing, the metaphoric storm which will likely be bone-crushing in scope, the long-anticipated tsunami that seems to have finally arrived.
