Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Issaquah, WA


I’m passionate about guiding individuals on their journey to healing and personal growth. Trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I specialize in helping clients release past traumas, lighten their emotional burdens, and create space for a more fulfilling present. I believe in the power of connection, and I strive to create a supportive, empathetic environment where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. Together, we’ll work on building a life that reflects your best self, free from the weight of the past and focused on living fully in the now.

I also love the outdoors and use experiential therapy techniques in nature to help guide clients through their own mental roadblocks, current and past trauma, and self doubt.

Hello. My name is Julie and I am a licensed mental health counselor. In addition to working in WA state in a clinic setting, I have spent five years in Singapore working as a social/emotional counselor in a large international high school. In that role, I supported students and families from over 75 countries in the world. That helps me to view counseling from an inclusive and culturally sensitive space. I now make my home in the beautiful PNW and am excited to ground my practice here.

Welcome, I look forward to working with you.

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.

Christy McCornack

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


My style of therapy works best with those who are seeking healing that goes beyond just the symptoms. I want my clients to move toward a fuller life, that does not stop at just managing symptoms and moving on. Therapy can be scary and sometimes difficult, but there is hope! Therapy can also bring fullness and connection into your life. The therapeutic relationship is essential, and it is of primary concern in my work. I dedicate myself to assuring my clients feel safe to do the hard work to heal. If you are unhappy and seeking more from life, I believe I can help.

I specialize in religious trauma and grief, but can also work with a myriad of issues. I offer a safe place to bring your story and the interpersonal and professional skill to help you move through your pain. I focus much of my therapy on meaning-creation, values, and body-centered interventions.

I have spent much of my own time and finances to my own therapeutic work and believe strongly in the process. Our relationship is central and I understand how difficult it can be to open up to pain in the presence of another. You will find me to be empathetic, understanding, and open. Contact me and start your journey of healing and hope.

Mindy Watson

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work and extensive experience supporting adults through anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

I specialize in working with individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism, overthinking, self-doubt, or difficulty setting boundaries. Many of my clients are young professionals, high-achievers, caregivers, and deeply empathetic individuals who are used to carrying a lot for others and are ready to reconnect with themselves.

I’m passionate about helping clients understand their patterns, build confidence, strengthen emotional regulation, and create healthier relationships with themselves and others. Whether you are navigating anxiety, relationship stress, burnout, trauma, or a major life transition, I provide support and tools to help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Clients often tell me they feel safe opening up fully in our work together. I create a warm, nonjudgmental, and comfortable environment where you can be your authentic self without fear of criticism or judgment.

I bring a balance of compassion and honesty, so you feel both supported and gently challenged. My goal is to help you feel understood while empowering you to make meaningful, lasting changes.

Hailey Foster

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work, and I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My approach is practical, supportive, and focused on helping you create meaningful change in your life.

I believe that success looks different for everyone. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you move toward where you want to be—whether that’s improving your mental health, navigating life transitions, or building healthier patterns and relationships. Together, we’ll identify what’s working, what’s not, and develop tools that help you feel more confident and in control.

I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported while also being gently challenged to grow in ways that align with your goals

A big passion of mine is supporting moms through all stages of motherhood. Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, adjusting to life as a new mom, balancing work and family, feeling overwhelmed, or trying to find yourself again outside of motherhood — you don’t have to figure it all out alone. Motherhood can be beautiful and exhausting all at once, and I love creating a space where moms can feel supported, understood, and able to show up for themselves too.
