Hakomi Method Therapists in Tacoma, WA

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.

Throughout our lifetime, things continue to shift and change; it's inevitable. Sometimes with these changes comes feelings of confusion, fear, anger, grief, and resentment, and choice-making can be difficult. Working with a counselor can be supportive as we navigate our mental health and wellness during these everchanging times. Finding a therapist that feels 'just right' is an important piece of the counseling journey. Let's schedule a free consultation to meet one another and explore the possibility of working together. I can be a support to those navigating challenging changes related to grief, loss, low self-esteem, life transitions, anxiety, relationship issues, and trauma.

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 Virginia Mason Franciscan Health 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.
