LGBT therapists in Mountlake Terrace, WA

Hello! I'm Lauren Salerno (she/her), a licensed mental health therapist in Washington! I am also trained in art therapy, and love to incorporate creativity into my work with people. My typical client is neurodivergent, creative, and looking for healthy coping skills to learn when to adapt and when to advocate for themselves. I work with adults 18+ and sometimes with groups. Nice to meet you!

After getting my master's in counseling psychology decades ago, there has been a strong focus in helping others process through trauma, depression, anxiety and other mental health symptoms getting in the way of living one's best life, I am a licensed mental health counselor who uses several skills and techniques to help people heal.

I've spent 15 years helping people stop circling the same patterns and actually change them. I'm warm, direct and honest - I'll hold space for your pain and challenge you to move through it. We won't just manage symptoms, we'll go deep to the root. I'll help you see yourself clearly, sit with what is hard, and build something different.

Hello I am Anna Salinas, a dedicated Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I specialize in diagnosing, treating and prescribing psychiatric medication management for individuals struggling with ADHD, depression,anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, Autism, eating disorders, and bipolar disorders. My focus is helping patients feel more stable, focused, and functional through careful evaluation, clear diagnosis, and thoughtful medication planning.

Many patients seek care because symptoms are affecting work, school, relationships, or daily life. Whether you are newly seeking treatment or looking for more effective medication management, I work with you to create a plan that makes sense and feels manageable.

Hi, I am Ellen, and I’ve been a licensed mental health counselor for 5 years. I like to create a safe and affirming space for my clients to talk about difficult things. I specialize in treating Posttraumatic Stress Disorder with a process called ‘Cognitive Processing Therapy’. This process lasts 8-12 sessions (not including intro or assessment) and can reduce trauma symptoms noticably. I also do “regular” talk therapy (Rogerian / Humanistic) with clients who want to discuss hard stuff, process emotions, and get advice in a less structured way.
