My style is warm, genuine and open. Together we will take the time to listen to your inner and outer experience in order to better understand and attend to your unspoken needs, injuries, fears, and uncertainties. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship issues, relationship breakup, career and workplace issues, life transitions, abandonment, co-dependency, and loss and grief.

My patients are usually hard working adults who have run into some tough times or are experiencing difficult emotional issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and addictions. I focus on using a strengths-based and harm reduction approach, which views each person as an individual with unique strengths and challenges. Using this approach values the person and facilitates a customized treatment plan for the individual. My role is not to judge you or your behaviors, but to act as an independent consultant for improving your mental well-being and quality of life.

I believe in a strengths-based empowerment approach, working together with clients to overcome challenges and find solutions. Helping people find their true authentic self and live a life they love is what I love about being a therapist!

Today you are one step closer to a new you who feels empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. As a client-centered counselor, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. I am also a WA State Approved Supervisor.

I view therapy as an opportunity to recognize the strengths of each person, the uniqueness of each story, and to find ways to use those strengths to create change and growth. I enjoy having the chance to walk alongside people through all types of challenges and triumphs as a willing listener who can provide empathy, a non-judgmental view on current and past experiences, and support to work towards meeting goals.

Sometimes, life can get overwhelming and we don't know where to turn. It helps to be in a safe space while you are navigating through challenges and life transitions. Through connection and collaboration, we will develop an honest and trust-based approach to help you achieve clarity in a non-judgmental direction. Whether it be stress, career change, relationship issues, loss and grief, or trauma, I will be your ally for support in moving forward.

I work with adults 18 years and older and focus on issues of depression, self-worth, identity, anxiety, and perinatal & parenting concerns. I am able to hear people's struggles and stories and work collaboratively to build and strengthen coping skills that work. That might mean using DBT, EMDR, or a combination of several therapeutic tools. I am comfortable working cross culturally and enjoy working with a wide variety of people with different backgrounds, ages, gender identities, sexual orientations, and immigrant experiences. I have experience working with diversity throughout my career.

I am a compassionate, culturally sensitive, solution-oriented mental health professional. I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and implementing effective treatment plans for individuals, couples and families. With an inherent ability to manage different types of personalities I am able to diffuse stressful situations to proactively resolve issues and meet challenging goals and objectives. As a client-oriented therapist I possess the innate ability to establish a genuine rapport and build the necessary trust for a solid client/therapist relationship. It is my belief that engaging communication and client advocacy can provide the motivation for growth and change.

Working with people who are going through a life transition is where I thrive in my work. If you are struggling with feeling overwhelmed by the transitions that come with the human issues of life, I may be the right therapist for you. With life comes change, and with change we step into the unknown, which can bring up feelings of anxiety, depression, overwhelm, or just not knowing what step to take next or how to take it. I walk alongside you as you navigate these next steps in your life. You don’t have to do this alone! I provide a safe and supportive environment for your healing and growth to reduce symptoms and build confidence

If there is any part of you who wants to feel empowered and in charge of your own life, learn more about yourself, your healthy and unhealthy patterns, your capabilities, and you want to claim and connect to your own power and BE authentic, then let's meet and decide whether we can work together. My commitment as a therapist is to facilitate the process of awareness, acceptance, choice, and letting go with deep respect for the personal pace, process and style of each client. I am a fully licensed Mental Health counselor with the state of Washington with over 20 years experience.

The best is yet to be! I strive to offer a positive atmosphere for real personal change. Helping people learn to manage and cope with emotions like, fear, frustration, sadness and worry is my specialty.

I assists individuals and couples by providing skills-based counseling so they can live life more peacefully and productively.

I'm David Bradshaw, I am from Washington State, and I currently live in Birch Bay WA. I was born in 1990, I'm an avid reader, I also enjoy Chess, Meditation, Backpacking, Hunting, and Boxing. I'm a bit of a nerd as well, and I build my own desktop computers. I would say the Pasayten Wilderness Area is one of my happy places. I practice Adlerian Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I work with clients aged 12 and up, including adults and couples. I am also a Clinical Supervisor and can train new counselors helping them earn hours toward their licensure.

If you're feeling stuck, anxious or overwhelmed, lonely or depressed, you may not realize that you already have what you need to endure what challenges you are facing and improve your sense of fulfillment in life. With the right guidance in therapy you can begin to generate insights that naturally broaden your perspective, that support you to reconcile rather than simply solve your problems with an unsustainable quick fix. With consistent practice, you can become more mindful and less prone to jumping to the same conclusions. Better yet, you'll get to decide how you want to live based on your own personal values and chosen identity.

Therapy is a brave undertaking, and many people seek out therapy at a time in their life when they feel particularly vulnerable, confused, and stuck. Together we will explore areas of your life where patterns seem to repeat themselves, and think about new ways of understanding your experiences. I am a psychotherapist that serves children, teens and adults at my practice in Tukwila. I primarily provide individual psychotherapy to all ages, and supportive parenting sessions. I am also able to work with infants and toddlers and their caregivers together with a focus on the attachment relationship.

My therapeutic approach provides support and practical feedback in order to help clients effectively address personal life challenges. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. With compassion and understanding, I work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing. My focus in treatment is examining perceptions and judgements, exploring thoughts and feeling and advocating on behalf of your intentions for counseling.

** I am ONLY accepting new patients seeking cannabis or psychedelic psychotherapy.** I do have supervisees (MA level and LMHCA) that work under me with availability for talk therapy. I work with clients of all ages who are open minded and looking to explore alternative modalities of treatment for depression, anxiety, or trauma. I work in an integrative medical clinic where there is collaboration with medical (palliative care) doctors, naturopathic doctors, and psychiatric nurse practitioners. Our clinic offers advanced cutting edge integrative medical care.

If you are going through a challenging time and are finding it difficult to cope or feel like yourself, I would love to assist you along the way to where you’d like to be. My specialty areas include couples therapy, life transitions, women’s issues, and navigating the ups and downs and anxiety that arise within relationships of all kinds. I care deeply about couples being in fulfilling and healthy intimate relationships while also supporting individuals in pursuing their own personal goals and development. If you are looking for a way to become more self-confident, present, and in alignment with your values, I would love to help.
