About Us | Intentional Spaces Psychotherapy
You deserve a safe space to explore and celebrate every aspect of yourself.
We believe that hope, healing, and the creation of a life you feel excited to wake up to begins with the courage to get to know your authentic self! Counseling sessions and talk therapy with a trained trauma therapist can be a springboard to a lifetime of healing. We are all a tapestry of experience, and we invite you to intentionally explore what beliefs, narratives, and perspectives you've internalized to re-write the story of your identity through love, compassion, and resilience. We currently serve clients in Washington State, from Seattle to Spokane!
You deserve to be understood
The nuances of religious trauma/deconstruction, LGBTQIA+ identities, and ethically non-monogamous relationship dynamics can feel daunting to explain to someone, especially in counseling sessions. We believe that you deserve a trained trauma therapist who has expertise in these areas to alleviate the burden of feeling misunderstood.
We get it-- therapy is Vulnerable!
Sharing vulnerabilities may not have always gone well for you, even in previous counseling sessions, and that's not something we take lightly. We're honored you've taken a step toward trusting us to help guide you toward healing with trained trauma therapists. Not every therapist is for every person, and that's okay! We strive to make sure each therapeutic relationship is a clinical and interpersonal fit because you deserve to feel comfortable, empowered, and understood.
Expertise
Individual Therapy
Our individual counseling sessions are tailored to your unique needs and goals. We use evidence-based practices, talk therapy, and trained trauma therapists to help you create and celebrate yourself outside of the context of models that no longer serve you.
Relationship/Couples Therapy
We use the term "relationship" therapy because we invite all types of relationship models (couples, polyamorous relationships, ethically nonmonogamy folks, etc.) into counseling sessions and talk therapy.
Our relationship/couples therapy sessions provide a safe and supportive environment to help you and your partner(s) work through conflict, improve communication, and strengthen your relationship. We're here to provide the skills and space you need to see your relationship flourish.
Religious Trauma
We specialize in Latter Day Saints (LDS) and evangelical trauma therapy and deconstruction.
Leaving a community, a belief system and an identity is brave and intimidating. Much of what we learn in childhood becomes our inner voice, our value system, and how we conceptualize our identity. Our trained trauma therapists here to walk with you along the journey, through counseling sessions uniquely tailored to you, finding your identity and creating self-trust in who you're becoming.
Sex Therapy and Sexual Reclaiming
Many of us have inherited shame and guilt from our religion, culture, or family that we continue to carry with us. We also live in a heteronormative, mono-normative culture that can feel intimidating and demoralizing when exploring sex and intimacy. There is a life of freedom and embodiment on the other side! Our trauma therapists are honored to guide you toward hope through counseling sessions, talk therapy, and evidence-based practices.
Anxiety, PTSD, Trauma Processing, OCD, Grief
Many of our clients are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, (chronic) post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, grief, or trauma processing. We're here to meet you where you're at, guide you through counseling sessions, and guide you to where you want to go!
Teletherapy
We offer teletherapy counseling sessions for those who prefer the convenience of virtual therapy in Washington State from Seattle to Spokane! Currently, we do not see clients in-person. Our teletherapy sessions are conducted securely and confidentially via HIPAA secure connections.
