Website: www.willowcovementalhealth.com Bio: I’m Abby, a mental health counselor serving adults across Washington State through telehealth. My approach is grounded in authenticity and connection—I take time to understand who you are and how you experience life. Some clients come ready with goals and a plan; others arrive feeling lost or simply needing space to be heard. Wherever you find yourself, this is a place for both reflection and growth. I believe that insight and awareness are the first steps to meaningful change. To support this, I draw from several approaches: CBT to explore the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; ACT to build mindfulness and values-based action; and a Person-Centered foundation of empathy, authenticity, and unconditional acceptance. I also integrate polyvagal and somatic work, helping clients understand the mind–body connection and uncover new resilience, balance, and self-understanding. |

Website: Psychology Today Profile Bio: I am an LMFTA offering in-person therapy in Olympia, WA, and telehealth for adults (21+) across Washington state. I work with people navigating trauma, major life transitions, or moments in life that feel overwhelming or unclear—those times when it’s hard to know what’s next, but you know something needs to shift. I help clients reconnect with themselves, strengthen relationships, and move forward with more clarity and purpose. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in curiosity and respect. I offer a supportive space where you can make sense of painful emotions and experiences, understand yourself more deeply, and develop practical tools to create meaningful, lasting change. I draw from evidence-based therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. Above all, I’m here to walk alongside you as you move toward a life that feels more connected, compassionate, and true to who you are. |

Website: www.kindredcounselingpnw.com Bio: As a compassionate listener, I strive to create a safe place for clients to share their stories. I believe that sharing lived experiences out loud is a courageous step towards healing and growth as it breaks down walls of silence, isolation, shame, and guilt. I incorporate techniques that promote non-judgment, self-compassion, and present-moment awareness, while also integrating other approaches tailored to each client’s unique needs. Fostering a collaborative relationship between the client and counselor is essential to my approach. Through this partnership, we explore and uncover new meanings in the client’s experiences and personal narratives. I have almost a decade of experience supporting and advocating for women who are survivors of interpersonal violence. Additionally, I pursued advanced Perinatal Mental Health Training with a focus on perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs), attachment, grief and loss, and adjustment to motherhood. I am deeply committed to providing high quality and compassionate care to adult women in our community. |

Kristin Johnson, MA, LMHCA

Email: [email protected]
Website: Psychology Today Profile Bio: I am an LMHCA who provides individual therapy sessions for adults in-person at my office in the Fairhaven neighborhood, Bellingham. My approach to therapy stems from the belief that we humans are social creatures who long to feel connected and supported by others in meaningful, nurturing relationships. It can be easy, especially in this day and age, to find ourselves feeling isolated and disconnected from others, or even from ourselves. Ideally, our work together will become a comforting place for restoration and healing that helps you find your way back to healthy connection with yourself and others. I work with clients on a wide variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, grief & loss, and relationship issues using a style that is interpersonal, relational, and attachment-based. |

My treatment methods include drawing from various modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, as well as mindfulness practices. My goal is to provide a comfortable space for my clients to achieve their goals, and I often find value in humor just as much as I value holding space for the difficult moments that may arise within life and the therapy process. I recognize that starting or even continuing the process of therapy is not always easy and my hope is that I can make it a little easier by providing the support my clients need and deserve. |
