Therapists in Spokane, WA

Rather than provide clients with the answers for their lives, I provide processes and exercises that help my clients find their own answers to what they are seeking. My aim is to help clients learn how to release the thoughts and patterns that block their progress and then provide them with exercises and methods that show them how to become more consistently connected to their Higher Self, in order to enhance their ability to achieve inspired action.

Do you feel: sad, angry, afraid, lonely, powerless, stuck, or numb? Emotions are messages from the deep Self that something needs your attention. It may be a relationship, a past trauma, a lack of living your true purpose, or simply increasing threats to your personal health or well being, as well as that of our planet. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe space in which we can explore the particular areas in your life that are asking for your attention. This process can lead to new insights and perspectives as to what changes might be helpful for you.

Generally, we react to suffering and what we struggle with by trying to fix perceived problems, our selves, or others. It is natural to not want to suffer, but often our very resistance to suffering, or the habits we develop to avoid discomfort and pain work against us. I provide an integrative, soul-nourishing approach to therapy rooted in embodied depth psychology, health coaching, and mindfulness practices that encourages fully accepting ourselves: our bodies, feelings, and thoughts as they are.

In my office, the priority is helping you find your inspiration, your answers and your next steps. The greatest satisfaction I find in counseling is seeing you shine. I’m confident that with loyal support, you'll find your way, and in time you’ll come to think of yourself as the wisest person you know.

It is a great privilege to be entrusted with the sacred work of helping individuals navigate life's issues. The therapeutic relationship is unlike any relationship one will experience anywhere because, in the therapy room, they are unconditionally valued and empathically listened to with their best interests in mind, free from hidden agendas, discrimination, or personal gain. In this safe environment, clients are encouraged to develop compassionate curiosity toward the pieces of their life story, which grants insight into their present functioning and is an essential part of their growth journey.

As a solution-focused and faith-based practice - we listen, coach, counsel, communicate, pray, plan, strategize, facilitate, teach, and motivate our clients -'you'. Our goal and entire purpose of service is to assist you in uncovering your true potential and to lead a life that is worth celebrating -- to be your genuine authentic self and live a life of purpose, satisfaction, and confidence - rather than a life of regret or dread. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life today and continue to move forward!

My name is Jill Walling, and I am a clinician as well as the owner of Rooted In Hope Counseling. Life is a journey we are all on with unexpected twists and turns in the road. Often, we find ourselves in places or circumstances we did not expect that leave us feeling sad, overwhelmed, anxious, lonely, scared, tired and stressed, but we do not have to do it alone. As humans we are all hardwired to be in relationships with others, so seeking support does not mean we are unequipped for the journey or have failed, it simply means we are reaching out for someone to connect with us, offer support, non-biased insight, and guidance.

Deep at my core, I would like to believe I can work with anyone regarding any potential concern. I do not wish to discriminate or weed out any clients in that way, it feels wrong to me. There very well may be some clients that don't feel I meet their needs and that is certainly okay with me. I do not bring a lot of structure, guidance, or advice to my counseling and that is not always what some clients need or desire. My ideal client is someone looking to change and grow, someone that wants to be the best version of themselves in a holistic manner.

You are just not the same anymore after it happened. You now struggle to sleep, find connection with others, or ultimately experience joy in your life. You are stressed and you wish you could stop thinking about the event(s) but somehow you cannot turn your thoughts away. Perhaps you find yourself avoiding certain topics, places, or people because they remind you too much of what happened. You long to be the person you once were and to have the life you once had. You are tired, worn out, and you need to somehow find a way forward in your life.

If you are searching for a mature and understanding therapist, you’ve come to the right place. I believe in meeting people where they are, and I am convinced that the therapeutic relationship provides a healing environment. My approach to each client is dependent upon the nature and need of the individual seeking help. Life can be full of various transitions and challenges. Aging parents, adult children, and complex relationships. And at the same time, desiring to be healthy in mind, body, and soul.

Welcome! Life is a journey with its highs and lows, and acknowledging your need for therapeutic support is a courageous step. I'm optimistic that, together, we can uncover the most effective ways to address your specific needs. I believe you are the authority on your own life, and my goal is to help you gain a profound understanding of the connection between yourself, your mind/body connection, and your relationships. Active participation and openness are key to successful therapy—a transformative journey toward healing and self-discovery.

As human beings, we want healthy and happy relationships. These are vital to our emotional and mental well-being. We want to be our honest, authentic selves and trust that others will be there for us. However, despite our best efforts, things can get in the way. Our emotions, our past, anxiety and depression all affect how we interact with people we care about. Counseling allows for you to sit with someone who has no judgement toward you and your circumstances. I am simply here to help.

Are you caught in repetitive, less-than-healthy cycles? If you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing, then I'm here to extend a warm and welcoming hand. My aspiration is to help rekindle the flames of your inner strength as you undergo the transformative journey of healing. My approach to therapy is rooted in a holistic and integrative framework, customized to you. I will collaborate with you and help guide you through the uncharted territories within your own soul. Here, you’ll find invitation, compassion, and safety to explore your inner self.
