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.

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate
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 families that are dealing with cancer, including young children through senior citizens. If people become too ill to come to my office, I will make home visits, location permitting. Cancer and/or end of life issues are very complex and multifaceted. 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 ]

I have experience working with children in a variety of areas including anxiety counseling, depression counseling, trauma, adjustment, relationship issues, Autism, divorce, bullying, anger management, grief and loss, and social anxiety counseling.

General Practice Area: I have been working with children and their families since 2001. I received a Bachelor's in Psychology from the University of Washington in 1999 before moving to Pasadena where I received my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy. I love my work and feel honored to walk alongside children and their families; sharing their joys, fears, traumas, and dreams. I have provided therapy in a variety of settings including schools, homes, agencies and in private practice. I provide play therapy with children, individual therapy with teens and young adults, and family therapy. I believe that weekly therapy is the most effective way to work through the issues that are impacting the functioning of an individual. I believe that by working together clients can return to the enjoyments of life. [ Email Carolyn Ratley ] [ Go to counselor - therapist website ]
