Grief counselors and therapists in Olympia, WA

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) licensed in WA, NY, NM, and AZ. With 18 years of dedicated experience in psychiatry, I bring a unique, deeply grounded perspective to your care. I’ve spent nearly two decades sitting with clients, listening to their stories, and watching what treatments truly work in real life.

I enjoy working with adult individuals and couples, supporting them through relational challenges (such as miscommunication, attachment style differences, and parenting), life transitions (including retirement and career changes, divorce, or becoming parents), struggles with anxiety and depression, and identity exploration. I have a special passion for working with women and LGBTQ+ individuals.

I am a psychotherapist specializing in trauma-focused care and integrative therapies. I utilize EMDR alongside other bottom-up approaches such as somatic and IFS-informed therapy. I am clinically trained in classical psychoanalysis, brief psychodynamic interventions, CBT, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy and will draw upon these frameworks when clinically relevant.

Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia, and I’m passionate about supporting adults on their journey toward healing and well-being. With a master’s degree from Virginia Commonwealth University and over seven years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, and other life stressors.

Hello there! I'm Elizabeth - a licensed, trauma certified psychospiritual therapist and Reiki practitioner. I work with women and femme adults recovering from religious trauma, constructing spiritual identity, grappling with a late diagnosis of ADHD, navigating a career change, or dealing with anxiety in their relationships.

I'm a licensed mental health counselor with a Master's of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University, and a Bachelor's of Science in Health Care Administration. I'm passionate about helping people find healing and growth. I use evidence-based approaches to meet each client's unique needs, and I specialize in working with individuals and couples facing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger management, and relationship challenges.

We all have experiences in life that might leave us feeling broken or disconnected with ourselves, others, in relationships, and the world around us. I believe that healing and wholeness can belong to all of us. If you are looking for someone to support you on your journey toward wellness and restoration, allow me to accompany you on the road that can often feel isolating when taken alone. The therapeutic relationship is paramount to me!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Washington and Oregon with over 20 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults. I am EMDR-Basic Trained through an EMDRIA-approved trainer and also trained in Developmental Needs Meeting Strategy for trauma work. I also offer Christian counseling for clients whose faith is part of how they want to approach healing.

A significant part of my focus is helping people develop healthy boundaries. That shows up across the concerns I work with most: anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, codependency, and relationship difficulties. I work entirely via Telehealth and see clients across both states.

I believe effective mental health care starts with feeling heard, respected, and understood. I take a collaborative, non-judgmental approach and work closely with you to understand your goals, concerns, and life context—not just your symptoms.

I value clear communication and transparency, so I’ll explain diagnoses, treatment options, and medications in a way that’s easy to understand. My goal is to help you feel confident and informed about your care, not rushed or overwhelmed.

I provide evidence-based medication management while considering the whole person—mental, emotional, and physical health. I welcome questions and encourage active participation in treatment decisions so we can create a plan that truly fits your needs.

Whether you’re seeking care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, or ongoing medication management, I aim to create a supportive, safe space where progress feels achievable and care feels personal.

Psychotherapy provides a safe place to discuss fears, thoughts, and difficult decisions we as humans must make during our journey in life. I believe we are capable of making life changes with the right tools. I am here to listen without judgement. I believe we all have a story to share. Being heard is one of the most important aspects of communication.

My passion is working with clients who have experienced some form of trauma in their lives. By sharing your story, we can begin to process the trauma from experience to a new understanding, while remaining in the present.

The stories we carry about our relationships deeply influence how we connect. At Pinehurst Relationships, I serve individuals, couples, and families in North Seattle and across Washington State. I believe your struggle is part of your story—but it isn’t the whole story. You don’t have to stay confined to a chapter defined by conflict, distance, or misunderstanding.

My online practice brings a narrative, relational, and systemic approach, helping you shift away from old, stuck patterns, rebuild connection, and find steady emotional ground. Whether you are navigating these heavy chapters as a couple, looking to strengthen a partnership, or seeking individual therapy for relationship issues, let's re-author your story together. If you are seeking a narrative framework to help rewrite family conflict or looking for support and family therapy with a child age 7+, we will map out a path forward.

Education and experience: I hold a BA from the University of Washington (1985) and an MA in Marriage and Family Therapy from Antioch Seattle (2022). My clinical roots include a dedicated internship in community mental health in Edmonds and an associate residency at a Seattle group practice.

Specialized Training:

• Narrative Therapy Foundations (One & Two): Couples Therapy with High Conflict Relationships Certificate (Vancouver School of Narrative Therapy)
• Professional Memberships: Active member of both the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and the Washington Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (WAMFT).

Outside the office, I recharge by gardening, walking with my partner, and heading out on PNW trail adventures with our hiking cat, Jasper.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I offer counseling and therapy services via Telehealth, to adult persons in Arizona and Washington State. I've been working in the field for over 20 years, and have found in the last 10, that for most people, the online option has worked just as well as in person. It provides convenience, accessibility, and a more comfortable setting for my clients to be more open and engaged.
