Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Nicole Waters (Flowing Waters Counseling)
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I believe therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported as you navigate life’s challenges. My approach is compassionate and empowering—I work collaboratively with you to uncover patterns in your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that may be holding you back. Together, we’ll identify these cycles and develop tools to help you break free from them, build healthier ways of thinking, and create lasting change. My goal is to help you strengthen self-awareness, increase emotional resilience, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
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.

Tacoma Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
We started Tacoma Wellness Collective because we believe therapy works best when it feels human.
Too often, mental health care can feel transactional — a symptom list, a diagnosis, a treatment plan. That's not what we do here. At TWC, we show up as real people who have done our own work, who understand that healing isn't linear, and who genuinely care about the people sitting across from us.
Our therapists are clinically trained and experienced — but what sets us apart is the culture we've built around care. We take the therapeutic relationship seriously. We believe that feeling safe with your therapist isn't a luxury — it's the foundation everything else is built on.
We work with adults navigating some of life's most difficult terrain: relationship stress, burnout, life transitions, grief, identity, and the patterns that keep showing up no matter how hard you try to outrun them. We don't promise quick fixes. We offer something steadier — a space where the real work can happen, at a pace that respects your nervous system.
TWC is rooted in Tacoma. This community matters to us. Whether you're sitting with us in person or connecting virtually from across Washington State, you'll feel that.
We accept insurance because access matters. And we're here when you're ready.

Navjoat Kaur
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSWAIC
What makes my therapy approach meaningful is the blend of warmth, cultural awareness, and practical support I bring into every session. Clients often tell me they feel genuinely seen and understood, sometimes for the first time, because I take the time to learn their story, honor their lived experiences, and meet them where they are. I focus on helping people make real, lasting shifts in how they relate to themselves and the people they care about, without judgment or pressure. If you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of your next step, reaching out is a powerful place to start. I’d be honored to support you in building clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of emotional wellbeing.

Tacoma is home to Joint Base Lewis-McChord — one of the largest military installations in the United States — and a significant portion of its therapy community is oriented toward the needs of active-duty service members, veterans, and military families navigating trauma, PTSD, and the emotional complexity of military life. The city has undergone significant revitalization in recent decades, with a growing arts and healthcare economy alongside the military and port sectors, and therapists frequently work with the identity and adjustment challenges of a city transforming its self-image. MultiCare Health System and CHI Franciscan provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private therapy community. Tacoma's diverse population — including large Pacific Islander, Black, and Latino communities — drives demand for culturally affirming therapists, and the University of Washington Tacoma feeds clinical training into the local community.
