I’m Elizabeth Webber-Mikaele, LMHC, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington State. I have spent my career supporting children, teens, and adults through life’s challenges with compassion, respect, and practical tools for change.
My background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Multicultural Social Services from the University of Washington and a Master’s degree in Education with a School Counseling certification, along with National Board Certification in School Counseling. I am also a National Certified Counselor and Approved Clinical Supervisor, which allows me to mentor and supervise counseling professionals across the country.
Over the years, I have worked in schools, community programs, and clinical settings, helping individuals navigate anxiety, stress, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I have a particular passion for working with women, adolescents, and children, helping them build confidence, emotional resilience, and a stronger sense of self.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I draw from evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral and trauma-informed approaches while tailoring therapy to each person’s unique needs, experiences, and goals.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, navigating a difficult season, or simply seeking personal growth, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward.
I am a licensed mental health therapist; I have experience with a diverse, complex, and co-occurring clientele with a broad age range from adolescents to older adults.
I became a therapist to help people suffer less and grow more. I have 15 years of experience in private practice, a mental health jail and a high-needs public clinic. I have led therapy groups focusing on childhood trauma, men's groups, feeling safe in love, attachment, codependence and spirituality. I was awarded Employee of the Year for LA County's Department of Mental Health. I supervise developing therapists and provide trainings on best clinical practices through public speaking and professional development.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Washington
Searching for therapists in Washington starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across the state, therapy needs and available therapists can vary between urban and rural areas. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions. As you compare Washington therapists, look for specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Location and format can also shape your search. If you live near Seattle, Spokane, or Tacoma, you may have more in-person options nearby, while virtual therapy can expand access across other parts of Washington. Consider whether you prefer meeting in an office, meeting virtually, or having both options available. It can also help to compare appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can give you a clearer sense of each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
The cost of therapy in Washington can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who take insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose from therapists accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with 70+ insurance plans. You can browse therapists, review profiles, check your coverage, and book directly when you’re ready.
