Therapists in Edmonds, WA

I provide therapy to people who wish to make lasting positive changes in their lives in a warm, safe environment. I have extensive experience working with people who have loved ones who have completed suicide and/or are working through other complicated grief issues. I am a certified hypnotherapist and EMDR trained for PTSD and trauma. I am experienced helping with self-esteem, personal development, marriage or premarital counseling, depression, anxiety and divorce recovery. Other areas I work with are Crisis Management, Anger Management, Traumas, Adult ADD/ADHD, Sleep Disturbance, Career Counseling, Social Discomfort and cultural issues.

I enjoy working with individuals, adolescents and families and have a theoretical orientation that is client-centered and systemic, meaning that client’s goals, beliefs, values are honored, and respected. My approach is integrative, holistic, and considers the whole person which includes mind, body, and spirit. I take an individualized approach with each and every client to ensure their goals, hopes, and dreams are realized.

I have 23 years of experience in the fields of mental health and law enforcement. I believe in empowering my clients and working collaboratively so you can become the most effective, best version of you. I can help you overcome vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue and other stressors in your life; depression, anxiety, criminal justice involvement, substance abuse, sexual deviancy and "fit for duty issues". Let me help you to help yourself.

We all go through rough patches in life, but sometimes we just need a listening ear, need to talk and not feel judged, and/or just need a safe space to cry at times. I want to offer you that safe space and be that listening ear for you. Let's work together to find the tranquility that you deserve!

I believe that people innately have the internal resources to meet life's challenges. We all have great potential for growth and change when we are empowered to access these resources within ourselves. But it is in relationship with others that these resources are inspired and engaged. My approach to therapy is collaborative. My hope is to help create the conditions where you feel encouraged and supported to explore the themes that are present in your life.

Dr. Carr uses a unique blend of Cognitive-Behavioral, Gestalt, Integral, Primal, Transpersonal & Family Coaching techniques to focus on natural growth & healing thus expanding the common central emphasis on disorders & symptom reduction. Clients change as they heal their pain, get emotionally nourished, recognize what is toxic and become authentically themselves.

Current Openings at 8am and 1pm on Tuesdays, 8am on Wednesdays, and 11am on Thursdays (PST). - I offer a gentle and direct approach grounded in safety and trust. My goal is to offer space for therapy to be about the client–their story, their experiences, their feelings, and what they want. Whether you know what that is already or are hoping to figure it out along the way, therapy with me will offer a place to have challenging conversations, understand your past, play with what the future might hold, and explore your wants and needs and how to meet them. I am a HAES-informed and fat-positive practitioner.

We each have different values and experiences in our lives, that can shape the people we become and the quality of living we experience. In times of struggle, we may feel lost and lonely as we attempt to live more authentically and with greater joy. Together, we can explore and deepen your own understanding and relationship you have with yourself and others to better navigate through and experience a balanced and healthy living. My goal is to provide a safe and secure environment to support personal growth, deepen insight, increase perspective and give space for self-compassion and acceptance.

I strongly believe that therapy is co-created between client and therapist. While I am trained in the process of counseling, the client is the expert in their own experiences. I believe that the combining of these expertise is what creates meaningful therapy and lasting change. I am passionate about creating an environment where my clients feel safe to be their most authentic self and know that their experiences are truly heard. Therapy can already be such an intimidating and overwhelming undertaking – so I strive to show cultural humility and provide a non-judgmental space where we can focus on the true goals at hand.

I am a respectful, open-minded, and compassionate mind/body psychotherapist who assists clients to find practical solutions to life challenges.

I am also certified in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFT), which addresses distress in couples and helps them to create a secure bond; and in the Hakomi Method, which studies how we organize internal experience. I am also trained in and Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy .

You have worlds to explore within yourself, so much strength to uncover, feelings to connect with, and pain to heal. My intention is not to "fix" you, but to help you reclaim your power so that you can feel confident in your innate ability to work toward balance and growth. My aim is always for you to feel safe, seen, and heard. In a world that seems to constantly pull your energy outward in a way that doesn't serve you, I want to provide you with a space where you can turn inward, with intention and compassion.
