Existential Therapists in Redmond, WA

I work with individuals of all ages, but I particularly love working with children/teens! I also enjoy doing therapy in various formats. In addition to providing individual therapy, I offer parent coaching, family therapy, and couples counseling. My work utilizes therapeutic approaches such as Play Therapy, CBT, DBT, Hypnotherapy, Narrative Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy and Existential Therapy. My clients find me to be nonjudgemental, supportive and encouraging. I am a firm believer in the power of vulnerability, introspection and growth, and strive to create a safe and nonjudgemental space for all clients.

** NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS ** Hi and welcome - I'm glad you're taking this step in finding a therapist - I hope I can help. My goal is to work with you to identify your main areas of concern/stress and develop a realistic strategy to reach your goals. I am a big fan of “doing what works” which, of course, means a different plan for each person. I work hard to adjust my own working style and in employing different strategies to meet your needs - to find the thing that works for you.

Those I work with describe me as receptive and kind, yet extremely engaged and at times even challenging. I am not a passive listener; my therapy work takes the form of an active, two-way dialogue. While my style is warm, informal, and truly nonjudgmental, I believe it is often essential for our default positions to be questioned within a safe context. Good therapy provides the help of someone trained to see and artfully communicate what we sometimes cannot see ourselves. The therapeutic relationship must be compassionate, open-hearted, and enjoyable, yet honest, even when such honesty is challenging.

Hello and thanks for checking out my profile. My name is Sean Trudeau, I work with adolescents, adults, couples and families. In therapy sessions my aim is to create a working environment geared toward each individual's greatest benefit. Longitudinal research suggests, therapy is most effective when there is a strong connection between client and counselor. Therefore I uphold a safe environment for compassionate and respectful communication. In addition I utilize evidence based strategies to help clients build the specific skills and resilience necessary to overcome their personal challenges.

I have been counseling since 1981 and opened my private practice in 1988. I have expertise in working with individuals around their history of sexual victimization, people healing from trauma and LGBTQ life issues. I also specialize in working with couples whether poly, open, heterosexual and/or gay. Included within my expertise is the breadth of issues surrounding sexuality and attachment. I also specialize in helping people become aware of and channel their emotions in a healthy way. Moreover, people who are grappling with existential issues, developmental transitions or life changes find meaning in working with me as well.

I am passionate about working with Asian Americans and the Chinese population. I have a lot of experience in helping international students and employees navigate life transitions and challenges. My clinical areas of specialty include personal growth and development, anxiety and depression, interpersonal problems, grief and loss issues, trauma, and stress-related problems. I believe the difficulties serve a purpose: to provide us the chance to reveal authenticity and completeness in our life. Life seems to be falling apart when you focus on the broken pieces. I will help you see how they will come together to form the whole.

Life is complex and there is rarely a single issue that brings someone to therapy. From struggling with identity and purpose in life to contemplating the meaning and nature of death, human existence is challenging and often painful. These existential givens are further burdened by experiences of trauma, oppression, terminal illness, grief, and the climate crisis. In this harsh world it seems easier to hide our vulnerabilities and find ways to escape, avoid, or numb our feelings - often losing ourselves in the process. Loneliness and fear can keep us trapped in toxic cycles, but we aren't meant to struggle alone.

I am a queer, sex-positive therapist with a passion for helping folks find greater ease, possibility, and liberation in their lives. Life and relationships are not one-size-fits-all; I help my clients to discover their own authentic truth and desires in the realms of sexuality, relationships, identity, work, creativity, spirituality, and more. I support my clients- individuals, couples, and polycules- in finding their own unique joy, fulfillment, and authentic path.

I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space, empathetic/active listening as a compassionate presence and witness to see you, hear you, and meet you where you are in your human condition. My hope is to inspire your inner compassionate healer to go through your current circumstance and increase sense of peace, meaning and purpose. As an Asian American woman, I have a personal understanding of how to successfully navigate multicultural systems, especially those of Eastern/Western combined backgrounds. A rich full life experience as a classical musician/artist before mid-life, helps inform my service with added empathetic capacity

I specialize in the tricky place of our relationship with ourselves. I emphasize our capacity to actively cultivate peace, agency, compassion, and attitudinal healing in response to suffering.

I am a holistic, trauma-informed therapist and my focus is working with adolescents and adults on issues related to depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and neurodivergence (ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorders). I also work with issues such as spiritual trauma and abuse, childhood emotional neglect and family systems. My therapeutic approach is client-centered, relational, and depth-based. I incorporate psychoanalytic depth work, existential psychotherapy, as well as somatic and mindfulness practices incorporating the body and strengthening a body-mind connection as it feels safe to do so.

I've lived in the PNW for 25 years via Miami and originally, from New York City. I received a BFA from the Rochester Institute of Technology and worked as a professional photographer. In Seattle, I worked for Microsoft and lead self-actualization seminars before earning a Masters in Existential Psychology from Seattle University, I practice Existential Integrative therapy and also study mindfulness and eastern philosophy. I'm interested in the ways these converge, how people construct meaning and how it relates to their as-lived experience; and how clients use this capacity to generate self-awareness and walk a new pathway forward.

I am passionate about working with adults and teenagers (aged 15 and over), who may be grappling with depression, anxiety, or productivity-related burnout. With an affirming stance towards the LGBTQ+ and trans communities, I offer a safe space for everyone.

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself or your life’s purpose? Are stress and uncertainty making it tough to envision what you truly desire? I’ll work with you to better understand yourself, leverage strengths, and align with your most meaningful goals. I’m particularly attuned to working with creative, high-intensity, and out-of-the-box thinkers. Constellations of these traits often include aspects of ADHD, giftedness, high sensitivity, and other forms of neurodivergence. I also specialize in working with unique concerns that can emerge at midlife.

Welcoming New Clients- Change is difficult, I understand that and want to help. If you are feeling overwhelmed or distressed in life, it is important you know you do not have to carry this load alone. Seeking help in times of need demonstrates strength and a desire for growth. I would be honored to be your ally as you take that important first step towards healing and change. Currently, I work with adults who are experiencing life stage transitions (i.e. becoming a new parent, empty nesting etc.), coping with anxiety, depression, navigating difficult relationships, grief and more. I see clients both in-person and online.

Are you struggling to find a queer and ND affirming therapist who might better understand your experience?
