I offer online therapy for adults in many seasons of life, from young adults in their 20s to older adults in their 80s, who want to improve their relationship with themselves and with others. Through telehealth, I support clients navigating a wide range of issues and major life transitions—such as new marriages, becoming a parent or grandparent, adjusting to an empty nest, retirement, or moving into community living—so they feel less alone, more grounded, and better equipped to meet these changes with clarity and care.

Vancouver, Washington therapist: Celeste Tomasulo, marriage and family therapist
Serving LGBTQ+

Celeste Tomasulo

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many of my clients come to me struggling with depression or anxiety in response to trauma, an unstable childhood, or illness. Others are having difficulty setting boundaries and expressing their needs. During our initial sessions, we will explore who you are as a whole person, putting together the pieces of the puzzle that make you, you. Many of my clients have had success in exploring the root causes of their issues and decreasing the intensity of overwhelming thoughts and emotions. I have a particular interest in how attachment and events in our childhoods go on to shape how we view the world.

Serving LGBTQ+

David Andreone

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MFT
You may look successful and put-together on the outside, yet feel tense, blocked, or dysregulated inside. Many of my clients—artists, creatives, and creative executives—are used to pushing through self-doubt, burnout, and relational pain without fully working through it. At a certain point, pushing through stops working. You want to feel like yourself again. I specialize in helping high-functioning creatives and professionals move beyond coping and into deeper, more effective emotional work. Together, we focus on what’s underneath—so you can feel more grounded, alive, and free in both your work and your personal relationships.
