Licensed Mental Health Counselor
1424 NE 155th Street, Suite 204, Shoreline, WA 98155-7104
Niche Specialty©: Couple or Marriage Counselor. I have training in Imago couples counseling(the Harville Hendricks approach), and I have years of experience working with multicultural couples. When working with multicultural couples we focus on the problems the couples presents as in "regular" couples counseling. But I also help the couples understand where they approach things differently and think about things differently based upon the cultural values they were raised with. I try to help couples step out of making each other "wrong" about these differences and help them understand each others cultural frame more deeply and figure out how they will build a bridge across their two cultures. I unfortunatley only do counseling in English.
Location: Shoreline near Seattle
General Practice Area: I help individual adults and couples to reclaim their true lives through effective therapy. Career Issues, victims of d.v., caregiver issues for clients with aging parents, anxiety, depression or post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). My counseling Methods draw on: Gestalt, object relations, EMDR (a powerful tool that can resolve trauma, phobias,& anxiety & significantly shorten therapy), Brainspotting, & Internal Family Systems. My approach is based upon the belief that we are all born with a full range of possibilities & strengths, but along the way various events, injuries & hurts have accumulated. We have formed patterns or responses that served us in the past, but now in, the present, hold us back or keep us stuck. I will help you identify the connection between current experiences, old injuries and to release yourself from the old patterned response. In couples counseling and marriage counseling these old feeling patterns may interfere with closeness and communication. [ Email Lynn Fitz-Hugh ]

Henschel-McGerry Associates
Walter McGerry  MA LMHC LMFT  (206) 364-8315
Licensed Mental Health Counselor
13245-6th NW, Seattle, WA 98177
Location: My office is near Bitter Lake in the Broadview Nieghborhood of north Seattle. The #5 and #28 bus routes are nearby.
General Practice Area: As a licensed mental health counselor I work with adults and adolescents looking for: • A fuller acceptance of self • More workable relations with others • A connection to their own inner guidance and courage • A sense of their own basic wholeness and goodness • A renewed sense of their belonging and contribution to the world I am also a licensed marriage and family therapist. I can see couples with my wife and co-therapist, Cathy Henschel-McGerry, M.A., LMFT, LMHC. Some couples find that working with a couple rather than an individual enhances their feelings of safety and balance in doing this work. I also see couples on my own, which some couples prefer. Intimacy can grow when there are two people who manage to maintain their separate sense of existence and simultaneously maintain their interest in the experience of the other. Sometimes couples aren't looking to come together but to separate with mutual respect and empowerment. It is true that even when intimacy isn't the goal, these abilities to honor your separate identity and that of the other and to be interested in their experience as well as your own, is important.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor
134 NW 183rd St, Seattle, WA 98177
General Practice Area: I have helped individuals, couples and teens find healing for over 26 years. I work collaboratively with you to help change the underlying beliefs and patterns that have kept you feeling limited and unable to achieve your goals. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space for you to safely explore emotional pain and find healing. I use proven, easy methods to quickly resolve issues such as abuse, anger, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. EMDR, EFT and Tracking are some of the powerful methods I use which achieve lasting change. Inner child healing is a process in which you learn to re-parent the wounded parts of your inner child with unconditional love. This process allows you to accept and embrace parts of yourself previously judged. As you learn to honestly communicate with yourself, you will gain a deep sense of inner respect and trust. This new confidence empowers you to make healthy life choices. I look forward to helping you live your best life. [ Email Shobana Nuland ] [ Go to counselor - therapist website ]
