Let's stop the anxiety spiral together! I I work with adolescents and adults. Drop your mask in here and learn to stop apologizing for who you truly are. Feel more comfortables in situations and stop spiraling using practical tools. It's time to stop feeling ashamed how how you think things should be! Anxiety, Trauma, ADHD and creative burnout can be overwhelming. Perhaps your brain won't turn off at night, decision-making feels impossible, or even basic tasks drain your energy. Especially when they show up in every part of life; work, your relationships, kids or parenting. That's okay. We can work with your brain and body.

Hi, I'm TJ — a Marriage and Family Therapist and the founder of A Better You Wellness, LLC. I work with couples, individuals, families, and teens (17+) across Texas, offering both in-person sessions in the Fort Worth area and teletherapy statewide.

My training is deeply relational. I graduated from North Central University with a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and I hold additional certifications as a Certified Trauma Professional, Master NLP Practitioner, and Hypnotherapist — training that shapes how I think about healing beyond the surface level. I specialize in relationship challenges including communication breakdowns, infidelity and trust repair, and premarital counseling, along with anxiety, depression, trauma, codependency, career stress, life transitions, and self-esteem.

What sets my approach apart is a philosophy of integration. I believe that meaningful, lasting healing rarely comes from one method alone. The experiences that shape us — especially the hard ones — leave imprints on the mind and body, and I honor both in my work. Clients often tell me they feel heard from the very first conversation, and that's something I take seriously.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Puyallup

Searching for therapists in Puyallup starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists and counselors in Puyallup may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to focus on. Some profiles may mention methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, or couples counseling.

Puyallup is a smaller city, so nearby in-person options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Washington. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their communication style, session structure, and experience before you book.

Therapy in Puyallup can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
