Mercer Island Therapists specializing in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Ali Siewert

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Kate Creech

I work with individuals and couples dealing with anxiety, stress, and trauma. My clients might feel stuck in relationships or be struggling with creating healthy boundaries. Often they feel tension is sitting like a brick on their chests and imposter syndrome is a constant voice in their minds. Over time my clients gain more self-compassion and confidence as we work together on uncovering stories that have contributed to their anxiety.

You deserve to be a priority in your own life. Often times our efforts to belong or care for others leads us into self-neglect. Most of my clients have a history of surviving trauma, oppression, and self-critical narratives; their resulting survival strategies can sometimes outlast their usefulness. We can work together to restore your sense of self and your ability to direct your life on your terms to achieve your goals!

Acknowledging that you might be in over your head isn't weak, it's wise. If you’ve tried everything you can think of to feel better, but your mind still attacks you or relationships always seem to go sour or you never quite feel at ease even when everything's OK, maybe it's time to look a little deeper. It's not that cutting off toxic people or upping your cardio won't help, because they probably will! But sometimes the wound goes deeper than that or the situation you're in is just too much.

I love to work with clients who really want to be done with their suffering, but don't know how to do that. Maybe you've experienced abuse or neglect, assault, the sudden death of a loved one. I trust that you have the capacity to heal, and we can work together to help make that a reality.

James Nole

Trauma leaves us feeling broken, shattered, frightened, and alone. You may be disorientated, tired of feeling misunderstood by others, and out of control of your own life. You’re ready for a change, and to start a new chapter in your life. The possibility and hope for a better life is within your reach.

Phillip Coulson

As an existentially trained therapist I believe that most people can benefit from therapy - sometimes especially those who are “OK”, “making it to the weekend,” and yet have a deep sense that something is wrong. How to live wisely and with integrity is a question perhaps more urgent than ever amidst the constant change and uncertainty all around us. More specifically, my lived experience as a nonbinary person means that I "get" what that's like in a way that cis therapists may not.

Gemma Collins

I work with couples, family members, and individuals experiencing disconnection, anger, or distress in their intimate relationships. I work with couples who report a breakdown in communication, difficulty repairing broken trust or who are finding their footing again after the transition to parenthood. In my work with individuals, I see adults who are in transition or are hoping to gain greater insight about themselves.

Karen Lucas

You are stuck in relationship patterns that have you feel disappointment and/or overwhelmed? Are you the person that your life looks good on paper and yet the felt sense is not as enjoyable? You are rational AND a bit on the WooWoo side of things and want to integrate these parts of yourself? Do you have anxiety that keeps you frozen so you can not make a decision?

What just happened? What is going to happen next? If your life is not adding up right now - you are working tirelessly, and alone- or you cannot tell what is important to pay attention to, I hope you will reach out. Maybe too many people depend on you, or no one does. Do you have anyone to depend on? Is this latest chapter of life a flood of experiences? I want to support you in finding the space, grounding, and perspective you need to build security and community in your life.
