Jay French Psychotherapy
Jay French  MA LMHC  (206) 438-4673
600 First Avenue, Suite 526, Seattle, WA 98104
Niche Specialty©: Men's Issues. I enjoy working with both men and women to identify and change the ways that gender roles and expectations have interfered with a fuller relationship with the self.
Location: The Pioneer Building on 1st and Yesler downtown, facing Pioneer Square.
General Practice Area: I work with individuals and couples to understand and change unhealthy patterns. These unhealthy patterns can appear as unhelpful habits of thought, unmanageable emotions, stuck relationships, or destructive behaviors. Effective psychotherapy can bring these often unconscious processes to light, and can help restore the natural healing capacities of the mind/body. In my view, the mind/body has a natural propensity towards health, but can develop unhealthy patterns as a result of trauma. Some trauma is very obvious and known, such as the trauma of warfare or childhood sexual trauma, other trauma can be subtle and unacknowleged. When trauma goes untreated, the mind/body can develop unhealthy patterns that start as ways of managing the trauma, but which can persist long after the source of the trauma is gone. I work to uncover these patterns and, through techniques of mindful awareness and self-compassion, to relieve the unconscious parts of the mind from the necessity of maintaining them. I believe most of us want to get well, and I enjoy working with people to help them achieve their full capacities. [ Email Jay French ] [ to counselor - therapist website ]
