Find a Therapist in Edgewood, Washington.

Psychotherapy helps people who suffer from emotional and mental health problems by helping them take control of their life, and respond to challenging situations in a healthy manner. There are many conditions that can be helped dramatically using psychotherapy such as depression, anxiety, addictions, eating disorders, and mood disorders. Through psychotherapy, you will be able to better understand your moods, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together we will explore ways to help you overcome the challenges you face presently, while finding ways to deal with stressful situations in the future.

Individual therapy is a collaborative process between the therapist and the client. It is a unique relationship that offers support, perspective, and new skills that can help a person confront barriers that interfere with emotional and mental well-being. Patterns and habits that were once effective may no longer be working and could be preventing you from being where you want to be. Therapy can increase positive feelings, self-esteem, and provide a renewed sense of self that is strong and clear.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Mental Health Counseling services is a subfield of psychotherapy. Counseling is designed around specific client goals and needs that enhance the client's wellbeing and overall functioning. Support networks are considered as well as wraparound services as needed. This practice promotes a collaborative relationship with other services in the area as needed, provided such collaboration assistance is permitted by the client. Treatment/service plans can be developed for more structured counseling services.

"Those who look outside, dream; they who look inside, awake."-Carl Jung. Why seek therapy? Because, among other reasons, life sometimes has a way of telling us who we should be, instead of letting us be ourselves. A spouse, a family member, a job, an internal voice that will not quiet; it's tough to speak for ourselves when we're being told by so many. Happiness and confidence are not found in being what you are told to be, but in listening to the internal voice of your heart and finding the courage to follow it. The challenge lies in quieting the voices, the anxiety and the fear and allowing your heart to speak. Therapy provides the space to create the silence.

We cover over our real desires and feelings because it doesn't seem safe to expose them, and then we live our lives separated from our true selves. I think of psychotherapy as the deeper work that involves first uncovering, then understanding and experiencing, and finally embracing the person that can just be...themselves. It's a difficult journey at times, but it allows one to engage with the mysterious wonder of being alive, of making choices, and feeling ownership of who they are in this world.
