Grief counselors and therapists in Bothell, WA

I have over 30 years experience working with adults experiencing life challenges. I keep my practice small to ensure each of my patients feel connected, heard, and empowered.

I know reaching out for support isn’t always easy, and simply being here is an important first step. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, or simply feeling overwhelmed, you don’t have to face it alone.

I worked in the field for several years under my MSW degree in various roles- (social worker at an inpatient psychiatric evaluation and treatment unit, on a community crisis response team, and in an outpatient setting)- before applying for my licensure approximately six years ago. Bachelor degree major was Psychology and a minor in Child and Family Studies.

I offer individual therapy for adults and teenagers! I specialize in neurodevelopmental conditions (like autism, ADHD, learning disabilities), and executive functioning skills- focusing, managing emotions, problem solving, and more. I also love working with general mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, existential crises, and life transitions!

I have ten years of experience in mental healthcare, and have an M.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Seattle University.

You are welcome to message me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation! Otherwise, you can use this calendar to schedule an intake session with me.

As a holistic dual board certified mental health and family nurse practitioner, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step!

You may be here because something in your life feels heavy, overwhelming, or out of balance. You deserve a space where you feel safe, supported, and truly seen. My holistic approach looks at the whole person—mind, body, emotions, and spirit—so we can understand what’s happening beneath the surface and help you move forward with more clarity and ease. In our work together, I’ll give you practical tools to navigate stress, anxiety, grief, or major life transitions. We’ll focus on reframing self-defeating thoughts, building self-esteem, and practicing mindful compassion so you can feel more grounded and empowered in your daily life.

With over 30 years as a Transformational Therapist, I draw from Breathwork, Guided Imagery, Stress-Release techniques, Centering practices, Energy Work, Therapeutic Movement, and Pattern Interrupts. For those open to it, I also offer Medicine Wheel work and Sacred Card readings for deeper insight.

Clients often say they feel comforted by my warm, intuitive style—maybe helped by the calm, steady presence I’ve learned from my beloved cats. If you’re ready for gentle, supportive, whole-person healing, I’d love to work with you. You can book time with my directly through my profile on Headway or give me a call.

Healing starts with being understood. I’m Yuliana Gonzalez, a Licensed Mental Health Clinician specializing in trauma, proudly providing care in both English and Spanish.

monitoring individualized treatment plans to ensure measurable progress and positive

outcomes for my clients. By providing specialized, person-centered counseling and
