I help teens and adults cope with stress, express themselves honestly, and explore personal meaning and purpose. I have experience working with teens and adults in private practice and other settings, using my skills as a therapist to help people find relief, direction, motivation, and meaning. I use relational psychodynamic methods, with insights from CBT and others. My focus is on a person's feelings, which are the gateway to the unconscious, although thoughts and thinking are also important. By exploring feelings we can attain greater self understanding, and this can help us to find solutions and coping skills to deal with our problems.

I’m a licensed therapist with over 18 years of experience helping adults navigate burnout, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I work with high-functioning individuals who often appear to have it together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck beneath the surface. Many of my clients are used to pushing through, taking care of others, and managing everything on their own—until it stops working. They come to me looking for more than just coping strategies. They want to understand what’s driving their patterns and experience real, lasting change. My approach integrates EMDR, parts work, and nervous system-focused therapy to help you move beyond surface-level solutions. Together, we work to reduce overwhelm, process unresolved experiences, and shift the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. The impact of this work is more than symptom relief. Clients often begin to feel calmer, more grounded, and clearer in their decisions. They develop a stronger sense of self, improved boundaries, and a greater ability to navigate stress without becoming overwhelmed. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and able to make meaningful progress at a pace that feels right for you. You don’t have to keep doing this alone—change is possible, and it can feel more sustainable than you might expect.

Hi, I'm Sara. I specialize in working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, perinatal mood disorders, and survivors of psychological, emotional, verbal, or physical abuse and/or domestic violence. I work with individuals who feel stuck, lonely, or overwhelmed, even when they are doing their best to cope. Many are exhausted from carrying the emotional weight of their relationships while struggling with self-doubt, heavy expectations, or the effects of emotional, psychological, or physical abuse. I also support women and couples navigating infertility, pregnancy loss, and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. I offer a warm, trauma-informed, culturally affirming space to slow down and feel understood. My work supports immigrants, second-generation individuals, BIPOC, and others navigating emotional pain, faith, family expectations, or relationship strain. Therapy is paced with care, helping you release self-blame, build compassion, and feel safer within yourself.

Thank you for sharing information about yourself. I'm so happy that you reached out for help. I am Michael Creech, a licensed therapist. My goal is to meet you where you are by bringing a compassionate approach backed by formal training and experience and be a part of your goals in the change process. I am very personable as well as professional and I do not believe in one-sided relationships. I have a multidisciplinary, eclectic approach to therapy in which I utilize techniques and principles from a variety of modalities to include Christian based. My counseling is geared toward treating the whole person from a biopsychosocial spiritual standpoint. I view counseling as a calling and not as a career and that it is a collaborative effort in which I learn and grow as a result of every interaction. My clients describe me as a “good listener” and as someone who “makes me think”. Some of the experiences that have contributed to my professional identity and approach to mental health treatment are my formal education at Pensacola Christian College where I received a BA in Pastoral Ministry and Liberty University where I received a MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have worked as a therapist under regulatory agencies for 6 years and have worked in Christian Ministry since my ministerial ordination in 2003. Demographics I have served have included inpatient and outpatient care, private practice, substance abuse issues, psychotic spectrum disorders, gender identity issues, personality disorders, sex addiction, family and relationship issues, depression, anxiety, PTSD, Spirituality, and men’s issues. My experiences as a combat military veteran, teacher, father, husband, and a person who has experienced my own traumas and failures have contributed to my professional development. I look forward to getting to know you!

Hello! I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I help adults make sense of what they’re feeling and understand why these patterns keep showing up—especially in relationships. My work is grounded in an attachment-based, trauma-informed approach. Many of the struggles we face as adults are rooted in earlier experiences of emotional inconsistency, neglect, or psychological harm. These experiences can shape how we see ourselves, how safe we feel with others, and how we respond when relationships become stressful. Together, we’ll go beyond just talking about your thoughts. Using a bottom-up approach, we’ll work with your nervous system and emotional responses to create real, lasting change—not just temporary coping.

Hi, I'm Quinn! If you're feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or alone... I see you. Most of us are these days. Seeking help is hard and incredibly brave. I've never lost appreciation for the vulnerability and trust it takes to reach out for help. Life can be so hard sometimes, but you don't have to go through it alone. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, or just want to get back to feeling like yourself again, I can help. If trauma, loss, or illness have brought you here for support, I am highly experienced in those areas as well. For the past ten years, I have worked as an embedded consultant and individual therapist for military special operation forces. In this role, my focus has been on PTSD/combat stress, work-life balance, and stress reduction with a mostly male population. If you're looking for a no bs, candid, and down to earth therapist, it's me you're looking for.

I take a warm, down-to-earth approach to therapy and work from a trauma-informed lens. I believe our reactions make sense, even when they feel overwhelming or confusing. Together, we slow things down and begin to understand what’s underneath your experiences. I bring in an understanding of how the brain and nervous system respond to stress, helping your reactions feel more understandable and connected to what you’ve been through. I see your reactions as signals worth paying attention to. Rather than only trying to manage them, we take time to understand why they’re showing up and what they might be connected to. From there, we can begin to shift how you respond, building tools that actually support you in a way that feels more grounded and effective.

I help individuals who feel stuck in deep-rooted anxiety, depression, or trauma find lasting relief through an integrative body-centered approach by combining the rapid neuroplasticity of Ketamine assisted therapy with specialized trauma tools like EMDR and brainspotting. I create a safe healing container that goes beyond traditional talk therapy. I provide a caring, compassionate, and collaborative approach. The synergy between EMDR, brainspotting, and KAP accelerates healing, moving beyond talk therapy to access deep-seated somatic memories and subconscious habits, and is aimed at rapid, lasting transformation. Trauma manifests in several ways. Re-experiencing, avoidance, hyperarousal, performance anxiety, emotional numbness hinder total wellness and relationship quality. My passion is working with adults who are ready to work and heal. Relief from your symptoms will result in improved interpersonal relationships, work performance, and overall happiness

I value authenticity, empathy, and self-awareness, both for myself, my clients, and as a critical part of the therapeutic process (I also take advantage of the healing power of laughter whenever possible!). I aim to normalize and validate my clients’ experiences without judgment, and above all, provide the most basic of human needs: to feel seen and heard. My name is Stephanie (or Stevie, either is fine) and I have been providing therapy in NJ exclusively via telehealth for about the last 5 years (prior to that, in person). I have a deep passion and respect for the power of therapy to change lives, which I have been privileged to witness in my work with clients, as well as in my personal life, both through the consistent use of therapy as part of my own self-care, as well as having spent the last 20 years raising two children with special needs. If you have been struggling with symptoms of depression or anxiety, particularly if they are related to a traumatic experience, I would love the opportunity to work with you to reduce your symptoms and help you experience a present that is not overshadowed by your past. I love working with women ages 20 to 30-something who are still in academia or just starting out in their careers, but also love working with women of any age. I frequently work with survivors of child sexual abuse, as well as those struggling with issues related to self-worth, but work with other conditions as well.

I am passionate about helping adults heal from trauma, understand how their past shapes their present, and reclaim balance, resilience, and fulfillment in their lives. In my experience, healing trauma often has a ripple effect, improving relationships, emotional well-being, and overall life satisfaction. I specialize in supporting those navigating childhood trauma or complex PTSD, people-pleasing tendencies, life transitions, emotional burnout, and relationship struggles rooted in early attachment wounds. My approach is collaborative and trauma-informed, with you as the active partner in your own recovery. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where we explore your past and present to understand how both have shaped your patterns, coping strategies, and goals. Together, we’ll connect the dots from past experiences to your current challenges, fostering clarity, insight, and motivation for meaningful change. In addition to other therapeutic techniques, I use EMDR to gently help your mind and body unlearn survival patterns that no longer serve you. Clients often leave sessions feeling lighter, more present, and in greater control of their lives. If you’re ready to stop surviving and start truly healing, I’m here to walk that path with you.

Hello. I am James Moore and I have 57 years of experience as a clinical psychologist in a variety of settings including institutional, academic and private practice. I developed and ran a head injury treatment facility in Carbondale, Illinois, but have spent my last 36 years in private practice in Miami, Coral Springs and The Villages, Florida. I have specialized in psychological evaluation, neuropsychology, and forensic psychology. geriatric psychology and individual psychotherapy. My modes of treatment include psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and, when called for, some degree of psychoanalytic therapy. After 3 years in academia and 8 years as a forensic psychologist, I moved my family to Miami in 1986 and joined a large private practice firm. Three years later, I was entirely on my own and have been so ever since. I look forward to utilizing my unique experience to assist new clients to achieve a more satisfying and successful quality of life.

Hi, I am a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on identity transformation! I work with those who feel the achievements are there, yet still feels misaligned in what you do versus who you truly are. This identity crisis shows up in subtle ways - the anxiety that greets you before meetings, the exhaustion from maintaining the "strong Black woman" image, the longing for relationships where you can finally be real. I want you to know that transformation is possible. That having more alignment and authenticity in the way you show up is possible. In our work together, we'll move beyond just understanding why you code-switch or people-please and help your system find its way back to your truth using Internal Family Systems therapy. Imagine walking into any room fully grounded in who you are. Picture making decisions from your core self, not from old wounds. It's time to transform your relationship with yourself - to heal those outdated identities and create a life that truly feels like yours.

I’m a licensed mental health counselor with extensive experience helping women navigate transition, stress, emotional strain, and complex life decisions with greater clarity and steadiness. My background includes serving in senior leadership within higher education, counseling, coaching, and navigating organizational environments, which gives me a practical understanding of how emotional wellbeing is often shaped by work, caregiving, relationships, and major life responsibilities. Many of the woman I work with are thoughtful, capable, and carrying more than others realize. They often appear highly functional on the outside while privately feeling overwhelmed, depleted, uncertain, or disconnected from themselves. I help clients slow things down enough to understand what is happening beneath the surface, identify what needs attention, and move forward in ways that feel grounded and realistic. I am also a nationally certified counselor and hold a doctorate in adult and higher education.

Hi! My name is Ruthie. I am from the great state of Texas (Texans are always proud of being from Texas for some reason!). I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT), Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC), and National Certified Counselor (NCC). I graduated from the University of Texas at Dallas with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and the University of Mobile with a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy. I approach our time together with integrating Christian, biblically, faith-based principles along with clinical treatment approaches and techniques tailored for you. I'm a narrative therapist at heart, which means we all have a story of our lives, and in the sharing of our story, we discover possible meaning, insights, healing, and growth. It is my goal to create an inviting, warm, safe place for you to share that story, and we can discover together how the Lord wants to bring healing and hope. It is my hope that people will take away from sessions feeling supported, cared for, listened to, not alone, comforted, encouraged, and with a spark of faith that it is ok to have the courage to hope again.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Washington rather than a city like Seattle?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Washington. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Washington from Spokane to Tacoma! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Washington.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Trauma and PTSD?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Trauma and PTSD, is filtering therapists in Washington that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
