Anna Barrios
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I live in the beautiful Southwest, and I embrace my Hispanic heritage. My best childhood memories are family road trips between Mexico and the USA. I learned at an early age that diversity was something to cherish, and yet I realized that differences can lead to division. With this in mind, I decided to pursue a degree in social work. I chose to focus on mental health in order to be a catalyst for hope and healing in my community. I have worked with nonprofit organizations, schools, and State agencies delivering best-practice mental health services. Currently, I provide tele-health services in three States. I am a bilingual therapist- Spanish. and I specialize in helping adults process childhood trauma due to family substance use, domestic abuse and neglect. The focus is to treat the anxiety, depression, grief, difficulty with relationships, challenges in parenting, and a host of issues that may result from unresolved pain. I believe that healing is a journey we do not have to travel alone.

Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
You might be someone who has done a lot of inner work already. You understand your patterns, you’ve reflected deeply, and yet something still feels stuck — in your body, your relationships, or your creative life.
I work with highly sensitive, creative individuals who are often over-functioning on the outside but carrying a quieter sense of overwhelm, disconnection, or burnout within. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, trauma, relational wounds, or creative blocks, and are looking for a kind of therapy that goes beyond coping skills into something more meaningful and lasting.
My approach is gentle, collaborative, and grounded in deep listening. I’m trained in psychodynamic therapy and Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, which means we pay attention not only to your thoughts and experiences, but also to the subtle, body-based knowing that often holds the next step forward. Rather than rushing insight or forcing change, we create space for something more organic to unfold.
I believe healing happens in a space where you feel safe enough to slow down, curious enough to listen inward, and supported enough to be exactly where you are. From there, change tends to come in ways that feel more integrated, more sustainable, and more like your own.

Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
You deserve therapy that already gets you, not therapy where you spend half the hour explaining yourself. I'm Sarah, a queer, neurodivergent, non-monogamous, kink-informed LICSW with 14 years of experience, and I created Courageous You for people whose full selves have sometimes felt like too much for the therapy room. My specialties are Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) and Somatic EMDR therapy - deeply supported, body-informed approaches that can help when trauma, depression, burnout, or long-held patterns just haven't shifted through talk therapy alone. I share these communities and identities myself, so you truly won't have to translate your life for me.

Christy A McCornack
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
My approach to therapy is one that is based on a deep respect and understanding for the courage it takes to seek support through therapy. I believe that we are most happy when we live a life that is consistent with our values. This allows us to create a meaningful life in the face of the many challenges that life can present to us. My approach is strength-based and insight focused, meaning we will focus on what you do well, what matters to you, and bringing awareness to you as a whole person. For example, we will attend to feelings, thoughts, and body sensations in our sessions, with the intention of bringing more awareness of how you experience the world so you can begin to make more informed decisions and make the changes that will bring you more happiness and peace in your life.

Michelle Meade
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Together, we’ll explore your inner and outer world to discover what you, uniquely, need to heal and grow. This might include practical tools, reshaping your life story, parts work and active imagination, body awareness, or asking deeper existential questions.
Therapy is a rare space where your whole, complex self is welcome. We’ll resist quick fixes (while making room for small, steady relief), and over time, move toward a deeper sense of wholeness.

Kendall Matthews
Marriage and Family Therapist, MACFT, LMFTA
Beginning therapy can feel like adding another task to an already overloaded life. Reaching out takes intention and vulnerability. You don’t have to untangle this on your own, and you don’t have to accept feeling disconnected as the cost of staying together.

Dr. Christina J. Gonzalez
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LMHC, NCC
Are you facing challenges in your life? I am a bilingual and bicultural Licensed Mental Health Counselor licensed in Florida with over 15 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked around the world- in Mexico, in the US, in Germany, in Japan, and in US, and worked in a wide variety of settings, including extensive work in community mental health, substance abuse/addictions, child welfare, and with military and veteran populations. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including couples/relationship issues, anxiety, depression, immigration-related issues, abuse and trauma, divorce and separation, and grief and loss, among other things. I have also worked extensively with the Marine Corps in the area of force preservation and suicide prevention, and have worked with other branches of the service as well, both in the US and OCONUS. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I honestly believe we can work together to find solutions for almost any problem and that we can emerge from challenges stronger, and even more resilient.
My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, mindfulness training, and other techniques. I also have incorporated many things I have learned in my travels and interactions with psychology in other cultures and countries into my extensive training. I will tailor our interactions and treatment to help you meet your goals and work collaboratively with you every step along the way.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

Alexzia Wagner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LSWAIC
I specialize in helping couples, mothers, and young adults who feel like something in their life or relationships isn’t working the way they want. You might find yourselves having the same arguments on repeat, feeling overwhelmed or unlike yourself in motherhood, or questioning what direction your life is actually heading.
As a relational therapist, I focus on the deeper patterns shaping how you experience yourself and others. Many of my clients are thoughtful and self-aware, but still feel stuck in cycles they can’t seem to shift.
Together, we’ll slow things down and make sense of what’s happening underneath the surface so you can feel less anxious, more steady, and more connected in your relationships.
My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. Therapy with me is active and engaged. I’m not just sitting back, we’re working together in real time to understand your patterns and try new ways of responding.
Whether you’re adjusting to parenthood, navigating a transition, or wanting to reconnect in your relationship, this is a space to be honest about what’s not working and begin creating something different.

Humanistic Therapy NW
Therapist, LCSW, LICSW, ACSW, CSWA
We know that feeling understood matters just as much as clinical skill. We take care in matching clients with therapists who not only have strong training, but who also bring lived experience that helps them truly “get” what you’re going through.
Our therapists work in a way that is both clinical and deeply human—offering evidence-based support while honoring identity, context, and real-life experience. We focus on creating a relationship where you feel safe, respected, and supported, so therapy feels meaningful, not mechanical.
17 Years Experience

Seattle's tech economy — driven by Amazon, Microsoft, and a dense startup ecosystem — has made burnout, imposter syndrome, and the social costs of rapid wealth inequality prominent themes in local therapy. The "Seattle Freeze" — a widely noted phenomenon of difficulty forming close friendships — means therapists here frequently address loneliness, social anxiety, and the challenge of building genuine community in an outwardly welcoming but emotionally reserved city. Seattle's progressive culture sustains strong demand for LGBTQ+-affirming therapists, neurodiversity specialists, and practitioners working with race, identity, and social justice themes. UW Medicine and Swedish Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources alongside one of the most therapist-dense cities in the Pacific Northwest.
