Couples therapists in Kent, WA

As someone who suffers from anxiety, I understand how impactful therapy can be. If you are constantly in your own head, overthinking every decision, feeling anxious, or worrying about letting people down, I can help. You may be someone who looks like they have it together on the outside, but on the inside, you're overwhelmed and exhausted. You might struggle to say no and set boundaries or to stop the racing thoughts you have. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone - and it doesn't have to stay this way.

It's not easy starting therapy and investing time in yourself, but you've already done the first step! My experience has primarily been focused in clients with eating disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. With that said, I also have extensive experience working with relationship challenges, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidality. I generally like to pull from my knowledge of various therapy modalities such as DBT, CBT, FBT and EFFT. I also really enjoy self-compassion work. Your goals are always my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

Outside of work, I enjoy live music, spending time with friends, and hanging out with my dogs, Nala and Toni. These personal interests help me stay grounded and bring balance to my life, which I believe is crucial for overall well-being.

If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to help you navigate your journey towards healing and growth. Let's work together to achieve your goals!

Hi, I'm Dr. Maria Moore. I am a licensed therapist with advanced training in trauma, anxiety, relationship counseling, and nervous system-based approaches to healing. I work with individuals and couples experiencing trauma, anxiety, emotional exhaustion, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My approach is warm, supportive, and personalized, helping clients feel safe, understood, and empowered throughout the healing process. I integrate evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, IFS, and CBT to help clients move beyond feeling stuck and create meaningful, lasting change. For those who desire it, faith can also be incorporated into the counseling process.

Where did you first learn what "enough" was? A hard truth is: what we fear is what we become. As a Christian + licensed therapist, and certified trauma professional, I help people move past trauma, anxiety, perfectionism, depression, insecurity, regret, rumination, and avoidance.

Now more than ever, we all feel like we have so much to lose when we try to heal. But it doesn’t have to feel like this. I seek to encourage clients to understand who they are beyond their diagnosis, understand their options, and how to move forward.

I’m Elizabeth Webber-Mikaele, LMHC, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington State. I have spent my career supporting children, teens, and adults through life’s challenges with compassion, respect, and practical tools for change.

My background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Multicultural Social Services from the University of Washington and a Master’s degree in Education with a School Counseling certification, along with National Board Certification in School Counseling. I am also a National Certified Counselor and Approved Clinical Supervisor, which allows me to mentor and supervise counseling professionals across the country.

Over the years, I have worked in schools, community programs, and clinical settings, helping individuals navigate anxiety, stress, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I have a particular passion for working with women, adolescents, and children, helping them build confidence, emotional resilience, and a stronger sense of self.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I draw from evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral and trauma-informed approaches while tailoring therapy to each person’s unique needs, experiences, and goals.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, navigating a difficult season, or simply seeking personal growth, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward.

Let's work together and help you find your direction. My counseling style is highly consultative and coaching-like. It is typically non-directive, as I believe each client pilot's their own ship, but when the situation warrants, there is plenty of idea sharing and strategizing as well.

I have been practicing for 21 years and work with clients of all ages and various backgrounds. I believe that with a strong therapeutic alliance, we can mutually come together and help you find a path forward that suits you.

I’m Tara Garland, and I will connect with you to work through and support you on any struggles or challenges you are going through—helping you turn them into healing and strength. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors who may be managing anger, anxiety, depression, family issues, grief, and loss. I also support clients experiencing trauma, stress management challenges, sleep or panic disorders, OCD, ADD/ADHD, relationship or identity issues, and women’s issues. My goal is to help you find balance, relief, and the confidence to move forward in your life.
