Great day to you! I am Kim Rodgers, LICSW (15yrs.). To complete my Master’s of Social Work Degree, I served as a school counselor for grades K-9. Since then, I have worked in Corrections, the Homeless Department and the Vet Center (within the Federal Government), in a Behavioral Health Hospital, and in Community Health. I have a great deal of “outreach work” experience, both personally and professionally.
Hello, I'm Dr. Aminu Mahmud, DNP, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care to children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. My approach is patient-centered, collaborative, and focused on helping individuals achieve meaningful improvements in their mental health and quality of life.
I am a dedicated Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW)
with a wealth of experience providing direct therapeutic services to diverse populations.
With advanced degrees in Social Work and Child Development, I am skilled in
conducting complex bio-psychosocial and diagnostic assessments for children,
adolescents, and adults. I provide individualized, evidence-based treatment
for individuals, couples, and groups, addressing a broad range of behavioral health
challenges including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety,
adjustment disorder and grief. My clinical practice is grounded in a variety of proven
modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy
(CPT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT).
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a profound commitment to
patient care within demanding environments, including military and outpatient settings.
I have served as a primary therapist in the Army Embedded Behavioral Health clinics,
supported the Army Family Behavioral health Clinic, and provided on-call crisis support for
hospital emergency rooms. A core component of my work involves developing and
monitoring individualized treatment plans to ensure measurable progress and positive
outcomes for my clients. By providing specialized, person-centered counseling and
intervention, I empower my clients to achieve recovery and wellness.
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.
I have a Master's degree in Psychology. I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families. I am also a Child Mental Health Specialist with a background in teaching. My specialty is childhood trauma, (children and adults), grief and PTSD Nero divergent individuals such as ADHD, OCD, Autism spectrum
I enjoy learning about ways we can change and understand our human existence. We are thinking, feeling and doing beings. Cognitive behavioral therapy provides a framework to identify ways to do it differently and better. Trauma treatment modalities like EMDR may support processing neurological and physiological reactions and being able to feel secure and safe while staying connected to others more fully. Our story is just that; we write it and edit it. We get to choose the chapters and path of our lives, through the unknowns, mysteries and celebrations.
I have 30 years of counseling experience as a Navy Chaplain, Parish Pastor and Marriage and Family Therapist. My passion is to be in service to others, especially those most in need of mental health services. I work work with ethnically diverse populations; as an LMFT I focus on the systems that my clients live in, including (but not limited to) family, school, friends, DSHS, the juvenile justice system and the criminal justice system, work, friendship groups.
Hello, I’m Charles, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) dedicated to helping adults build healthier, more fulfilling lives. I work with individuals and couples facing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, and major life transitions. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in trauma-informed care. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can openly explore your experiences, gain insight into patterns that may be holding you back, and develop the tools needed to heal, grow, and move forward with confidence.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Tacoma
Searching for therapists in Tacoma starts with finding care that matches what you want to work on and how you prefer to talk through it. Tacoma therapists may support people living with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. A bio can help you see whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or other forms of counseling in Tacoma.
Tacoma has a range of therapy options across neighborhoods like Hilltop, Proctor, Stadium District, and nearby areas, with virtual care adding more flexibility beyond local office locations. If your schedule varies, a therapist with evening, weekend, or virtual appointments may fit better than one with a fixed in-person schedule. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can give you a clearer sense of communication style, session structure, and what the therapist focuses on in care.
Therapy in Tacoma can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search Tacoma therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly with therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse therapists, review bios, and choose a fit based on your needs, schedule, and plan.
