Barbara Witkow MA LMHC (425) 442-0324
Licensed Mental Health Counselor
1611 116th Ave NE, Suite #100, Bellevue, WA 98004
Niche Specialty©: Transitions (life changes). Life transitions that create new identity struggles. When life turns out “different than expected” it can be the result of a divorce, job loss, relationship meltdown, or family disappointments. It’s hard to know how to move through the flood of emotions that may emerge with the chaos. I work with clients to uncover old, outmoded belief systems that no longer work, and identify their authentic self that may lay hidden beneath these beliefs.
Location: Campus Office Park - just north of Overlake Hospital
General Practice Area: I work with individuals and couples who struggle with depression, anxiety, transitions, childhood trauma, relationship difficulties, grief & loss, divorce, and mid-life crisis.
My work is based in depth psychology (Jung) exploring the unconscious and spiritual motivations that direct our life choices without our conscious knowing. Dreams, images, symbols and stories (belief systems) all provide insight into our unconscious and help us learn more about who we really are. Learning basic psychological concepts helps to inform clients about their own psyche and helps you understand and appreciate your unique issues. I am also a trained Lifespan Integration therapist, working with the neural pathways to the brain to rebuild and strengthen your sense of self that can result in easing anxiety, stress, childhood traumas, and calming the nervous system so that deeper emotional work can be effective.

1611 - 116th Avenue NE, Suite #116, Bellevue, WA 98004-3064
Location: Campus Office Park just north of Overlake Hospital in Bellevue, Washington.
General Practice Area: I approach counseling from the belief that we are all meant to experience relationships that provide love, joy, and intimacy. And yet many obstacles may impede us from experiencing the relationships we desire as our life stories get corrupted over time from abuse, trauma, neglect, loss, and other challenges. Coping strategies can appear to help, but over time they may only distract us from the painful cry of our lonely hearts. In counseling we will address your present symptoms in the context of your life story.
I help people suffering from anxiety, depression, life transitions, grieving, pet loss, spiritual concerns, and general blahs. As a Certified Sex Addiction Counselor (CSAT), I also assist men and women with sex and love addiction to establish sobriety and to experience more meaningful, life-giving relationships.

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
40 Lake Bellevue Drive, Suite #250, Bellevue, WA 98005
Niche Specialty©: Cancer Patients, Survivors or Care Givers. I am passionate about working with children, couples, individuals and families in all areas of cancer care, from diagnosis through treatment and beyond, including people dealing with hospice and/or end of life issues, such as grief and loss.
Location: One block east of Overlake Hospital and Whole Foods
General Practice Area: I am unique as a therapist in that I am also a physician (board certified in anesthesiology) and a former nurse (surgical and hospice nursing). While I enjoy working with a wide variety of people, I am particularly interested in working with people that are dealing with cancer, death and grief, loss and bereavement (including young children through senior citizens). If people become too ill to come to my office, I will make home visits, location permitting. I work with families to enhance communication, and am particularly interested in helping parents help their children through the experience, whether it is the parent or the child that is ill.
I use several approaches in working with people. My work is very person-centered and collaborative. I offer deep empathy, respect, understanding and compassion to all people; no question or comment is too silly to bring up. You and I set goals together. Second, none of us exists in a vacuum; we all influence and are influenced by those we are close to, particularly our family members.
My approach for adults is based on cognitive-behavioral therapy; our thoughts truly affect the way we feel and act. Often, we are brought up with ideas or values that we take for granted; those thoughts are so automatic that we don't stop to question them or realize that they are no longer useful to us. My approach with children tends to rely on more nonverbal techniques, including play and art therapy. [ Email Norma Lee ] [ Go to counselor - therapist website ]

Location: Campus Office Park - located two blocks north of Overlake Hospital - travel north on 116th Ave NE - cross NE 12th St - second left is Campus Office Park.
General Practice Area: We are about to begin a counselor/client relationship that I believe will be a helpful, rewarding, and healing process. I believe it is essential to establish a safe space to look at one's presenting problems. I also believe one's past experiences strongly influence whom they become later in life, and affect patterns of thought, emotions, and behavior. I focus not only on the whole person (biological, cognitive, emotional, and social/spiritual components of health), but also on one's family system. Furthermore, I carefully think and listen by way of a broadminded perspective.
We will collaboratively learn to help you better help yourself. I specialize in individual and group counseling and use a systems approach in addiction education for compulsive sexual behaviors, attachment styles and task-centered treatment. I lead/support healthy intimacy skills-building adjunct groups. I am trained in Sex Addiction, EMDR, Cognitive-Behavioral, Family Systems Therapies.
