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 a Licensed Couples & Family Therapist and the founder of a virtual private practice serving clients in Washington and Idaho. My background is rooted in systems theory, which means I consider how family, cultural, and social dynamics shape your experiences and well-being. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, identity exploration, and stress or anxiety. My work is grounded in creating a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported as you move toward meaningful change.
Ready to find therapy that eases symptoms quickly? Dr. Athena Hubbard is a licensed psychologist specializing in psychological assessment, trauma treatment, depression, anxiety, and relational dynamics and concerns. She is trained in EMDR and ART, therapies proven to resolve trauma more efficiently than traditional approaches, and is certified in multiple evidence-based practices to create a treatment plan personalized to your needs.
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.
Hello, I am a fierce advocate for my patients. My goal is to improve your functioning, thoughts, and enhance self-acceptance and self-love. I listen and together with my patients create a solution-focused treatment plan aimed at enhancing your strengths and reducing your symptoms. I have over a decade of skilled bedside nursing in critical care, hospice, and ICU. My passion is empowering and uplifting others to reach their full quality of life .
I provide online individual, couples, and family therapy using a relational and narrative approach through Pinehurst Relationships Seattle. Based out of the Pinehurst neighborhood (98125) of North Seattle—right next door to Shoreline and Northgate—my telehealth services are available to clients throughout all of Washington State.
My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that our lives and relationships are deeply connected to the world around us. When a family dynamic feels tense, a couple loses their shared intimacy, or a child or teen gets stuck in a repetitive, draining loop, modern macro-stressors, grief, and overwhelm are usually magnifying the strain. I work to help you break the cyclical patterns that leave your relationships running on empty. If your primary bonds feel overwhelmed right now, you don't have to navigate it alone.
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. Outside the office, I recharge by gardening, walking with my partner, and heading out on PNW trail adventures with our hiking cat, Jasper.
It takes courage to reach out for support when needed, no matter the concern. As a licensed counselor, I enjoy helping people improve and strengthen their mental health. My approach is warm and direct and centered on the needs of the client.
Hi! My name is Marisa, I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and Substance Use Disorder Professional in the State of Washington. I started working as a Substance Abuse Counselor in 2010 with Adolescents and discovered that mental health often intersected. I decided to attend graduate school at the University of Denver for my Master's in Social Work with a concentration in Family Systems.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Tacoma, WA
Searching for couples therapists in Tacoma starts with identifying what you and your partner want to work on. Couples therapy, couples counseling, relationship counseling, and marriage counseling can support concerns like communication breakdowns, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples modalities like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy in their bios.
In Tacoma, finding one therapist who works for both partners often means balancing location, schedule, appointment format, and therapy style. Some couples prefer in-person sessions near Tacoma, while others use virtual appointments to add more scheduling options. As you compare therapists, review whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that fit both calendars, and provide a brief consultation. Reading each profile can help you understand how the therapist structures couples sessions and whether their communication style feels aligned.
Couples therapy in Tacoma can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps make that process clearer before you book. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review bios, 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.
