One day you’re running through a playground playing hide and seek with your friends and then you blink and you’re sitting at your desk to answer work emails. Life comes at us fast and we’re not always ready for it but that’s okay! In my therapy work, I believe that we all crave connection with our peers, friends, family, and partners. And when we aren’t working on those connections, we’re working to build peace within our connection with our inner self.

To fully work through that and make progress, I use a direct approach in helping clients address concerns that may arise from their connections with others or with themself. I believe that the most progress can be made when it’s accompanied with empathy and unconditional positive regard - two pillars of therapeutic work to foster growth and a sense of safety.

I earned my Bachelors degree from Washington State University ( where I double majored in Psychology and Human Development. After taking a year off to work in an Eating Disorder Residential Facility, I obtained my Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling from Central Washington University. I work with individuals and couples. I have specialized training telehealth therapy, emotion focused therapy and utilize Gestalt theory in my work as well.

Outside of work, I spend a lot of time with my friends and family. I’m a big foodie so we spend most of our weekends trying new cafes or creating new dishes to share with each other. I advocate strongly for my clients to lean on their communities so I try to practice what I preach as well. When I need a little more alone time, I like to read or work on my creativity through knitting or working on DIY projects. Feel free to ask me about my current projects during our next session!

One of the bravest decisions you can make is to begin to understand your own story. You are a whole person, and I am here to support you in harnessing your most authentic self. In my work as a therapist, I strive to embrace a holistic approach with my clients. Having overcome obstacles in my own life, I value providing an inclusive, down-to-earth space where clients can show up exactly as they are. I like to work collaboratively with my clients to help them connect to their truth and unlock what is blocking them from living the life they want.

I believe every person can change how they move through this world and feel more aligned with their true self. Wherever you are on your journey, you deserve to feel understood and supported.

For over a decade, I have committed my life to learn various therapeutic modalities to support clients. My commitment to my healing journey and desire to support people through some of life's challenging obstacles continues to inspire and inform my work and healing practices. I feel privileged beyond belief that I can help empower, affirm, and support my clients.

I'm from the northwest, passionate about social justice work, LGBTQIA2+ advocacy, and a supporter of Health at Every Size (HAES). I love being an Auntie, animals, traveling, watching documentaries, and spending time with my partner and our two sweet rescue pups.

Therapy can be helpful for navigating and understanding the intricacies of life. Whether you are entering a difficult season, wanting to connect and know your true self, or needing help to find a new perspective, therapy can be a remarkable journey of self-discovery and connection. In our sessions, you'll find a non-judgmental therapeutic environment where you are safe to be authentic, honest, and open.

For couples, therapy can be used to support the natural ebb and flow of relationships. Couples therapy is an opportunity to re-establish connection, learn communication skills, and begin to develop a deeper sense of knowing your partner. With a focus on emotion, we will co-create a space that values practicing empathy, vulnerability, seeking new perspectives, and listening skills. I act as a compassionate ally for both you and your partner as you navigate the journey of your relationship.

Whether you are an individual, a couple, or a family seeking support, my approach honors your unique needs and circumstances by meeting you where you are. Here, we will cultivate a relationship built on trust, allowing you to explore your inner world, heal from past wounds, and strengthen your connections with others. By ensuring that your life story is at the heart of our work together, we will create a holistic and affirming therapeutic experience.

My educational journey began at Oberlin College, where I pursued a bachelor’s degree in psychology and biology. I further honed my skills and knowledge at Seattle University, earning a Masters in Couples and Family Therapy, which laid the groundwork for my work in systemic therapy. Before stepping into the world of counseling, I immersed myself in reproductive health, working as a medical assistant, doula, and patient advocate. This experience enriched my understanding of life's transitions and the power of support and connection.

When I’m not in the therapy room, you can find me exploring the vibrant city of Seattle with my beloved dog, soaking in the energy of live music, or enjoying heartfelt moments cooking with my friends and family.

Way to go; you have already made the first step towards a change in your circumstances!

They say "the journey of a thousand miles begins with a first step" and I'm struck by your courage in even beginning the road to health and emotional support. As a therapist, my goal is to create a supportive, understanding and welcoming environment that fosters each person's unique road to improvement. I place a high value on working to understand where each person has come from, to validate their experiences, and to work next to them towards their goals.

There are a variety of therapeutic orientations, but I adapt my professional skills and

knowledge in order to best fit your particular needs. I see each client as the expert of their own life and in the therapeutic relationship, you will have someone to walk alongside you to help discover those often elusive solutions.

I earned my bachelor's degree in Human Development and Family Studies from California State University Monterey Bay, and then I went on to pursue my master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling at Central Washington University. I am originally from Colorado, I was a collegiate volleyball player and I have always loved the outdoors. In my free time, I enjoy being with family and friends, taking my dog on walks, and doing puzzles.

Life is like a rollercoaster. Cheesy, I know, but it’s one of my favorite metaphors for life. It’s filled with so many ups and downs, at times we’re holding on for dear life and at others we put our hands up in the air and enjoy the ride. It’s helpful to have someone beside you when you’re going through the scary parts -- and that’s why I’m here. I am passionate about cultivating a safe, judgement-free space for my clients to work through the hardships of life and heal + grow. Empathy, compassion, and presence are qualities I bring to every session and have found that clients perceive me as warm, kind, and personable. I use a person-centered, mindfulness based approach in my therapeutic work and meet clients where they’re at. I view therapy as a collaborative process, where you are in the driver's seat and I in the passenger, navigating the road together.

Self-care is a practice I prioritize daily, as I have to ensure I’m taking care of my own wellbeing if I want to help others with theirs. I enjoy trying new foods and going on adventures with my husband, going on walks with our pup ZZU, and getting lost in the world of movies + shows. I love being among nature, exploring the many wonders of the universe -- and I’m always looking to deepen my spiritual practices and identity, further understanding the mind, body, and spirit + strengthening my intuition and consciousness.

I completed my undergraduate career at Washington State University where I majored in Psychology and Human Development. I then received a Masters in Mental Health Counseling at Central Washington University and completed my internship at the university's student counseling clinic. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Life Coach. I have experience working with all age groups from diverse backgrounds and with various presenting concerns.

I know how hard it can be to take the step to begin therapy and do the hard work of healing and bettering ourselves. I also know how powerful of a tool it can be for creating the life we want to lead. So, take three deep breaths... in through your nose and out through your mouth slowly, and reassure yourself that you are capable. It takes so much courage + bravery to take this leap but you wouldn’t be reading this if you weren’t ready. It is an act of self-love, it is a practice of self-care. I truly believe you will feel grateful you made this time for yourself once you make the jump. I look forward to joining you on the rollercoaster ride and being a part of your journey!

Sometimes in life we all need a “companion on the journey,” someone to partner with us and help make sense of our experience, ease our pain, and support our goals. As a therapist, I am committed to providing a safe environment where individuals can identify their strengths, recognize unhelpful patterns, and live into their goals. Working from an integrative, client-centered approach, I seek to support individuals wherever they are on their journey and my approach is holistic, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I value cultural humility and look forward to working with people of all backgrounds, identities, and walks of life.

Whether this is your first time seeking a therapist or you are returning to therapy, I believe you have already taken the most difficult and courageous step: You are here looking for the support you need to make real change in your life. I would be honored to connect with you and look forward to meeting you.

I was raised both here in the Seattle area and in Alaska. I have 25+ years serving in various management and leadership positions, primarily with local non-profits, where I coached and supervised numerous employees. I also volunteered with the Crisis Line for many years and continue to volunteer with my local community. I am a parent, a partner, a writer—and both a cat and a dog person! Outside of therapeutic practice, I enjoy spending time in nature, reading British mystery novels, continuing to get the hang of yoga, and long walks with my corgi.

Sometimes life can feel a bit overwhelming and cause you to feel alone. I believe that asking for help takes courage and is a powerful move in making a difference in your life. You do not have to go through the struggles of life alone. I view counseling as a collaborative process, where you are the master of your life, and I am joining along for the ride. I hope we can work together to find the answers you may be looking for within you. I am here to help with any life challenges you may be going through.

My approach to counseling is focused on developing a trusting, understanding, and empathetic counseling relationship. I view humans as having the capacity for self-awareness, the ability to create and identify meaningful relationships, and to search for the meaning, purpose, and values in their life. I am dedicated to serving a safe environment to help you improve your quality of life. I will provide empathy, genuineness, and unconditional positive regard to set a safe environment for you to grow and experience insight.

I earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Idaho with a double major in Psychology and Philosophy. I went on to purse a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Central Washington University. Outside of my practice, I enjoy traveling, listening to podcasts, weightlifting, and trying new foods. One of the many ways I engage in self-care is by taking daily walks with my partner and our dog named Dodger. Thank you for taking your time to learn a little bit more about me. I look forward to working with you!

The human experience is dynamic and we all need some help and support along the journey. Understanding our own life story, belief systems, patterns and the role we play in our experiences is key to rediscovering the innate ability we have to transcend, transform and create empowering changes.

I believe that my clients are the experts on their own life. Life will often challenge us but we can work together on how we move forward.

My framework is adaptable in order to meet each unique person aimed at integrating both the power of the mind and body as part of the healing process.

Born and raised in CA but a Seattleite at heart, I love being in nature, taking my adorable goldendoodle Blue to the park and spending time with loved ones.

Hi there and welcome! My name is Hanna Maple. I am so excited that you are here! I feel so honored to be a consideration in your mental health journey. :)

As we navigate through life's many paths, we often encounter barriers to relationships with others and ourselves. Regardless of the situation, I am here to support you, listen to you, and help you reach your goals. You are not alone!

I take a trauma-informed approach to my practice with a focus on empowerment and advocacy.

I strongly believe that therapy should be tailored to the client!

We all need help. Whether you’ve come to a crossroad in your life and need to plan out your next step, or you’re overwhelmed by current circumstances. Maybe emotions cloud your day, and you need help navigating through them. You want to see your life and direction clearly. Maybe you’ve suffered a loss, and you’re on a journey of healing. We are never complete. We finish one chapter, only to begin another. That’s why I am here why I’m here. My purpose is to listen to you, to support you, to understand you, and ultimately, to help you.

Life is beautiful, and at times, it can be difficult and overwhelming. The relationships we have in our lives, be it with our parents, our siblings, our spouse, our friends, or our community, change.

Life can be difficult, but having support along the way can make all the difference. I believe that everyone is capable of growth and has within them the wisdom, strength, and abilities to get through life’s challenges – you just might need some help uncovering them! I work collaboratively with clients to help them find new perspectives, insights, and navigate a path to new possibilities. My counseling philosophy draws on different theories to meet your unique needs. My therapy space is a calm, safe place for clients to come and be their authentic selves.

I grew up in the Midwest, but have called Seattle home for the past decade. Outside of my practice, I try to spend as much time in nature as I can. I enjoy belly laughs, good books, great meals, and watching the sunset whenever possible.

Your story is unique and deserves to be heard. I look forward to meeting you wherever you are on life’s journey!

Introducción en Español debajo!

The home and environment that we land in can either enrich or hinder the process of pursuing our innate interests and rights. Our understanding of reality (what is possible, what is true and how we should be) grow from this. While these perceptions are key to our survival, they can develop into inflexible patterns that limit our experience of life. I see my role as an active guide to help bring you back to your center and lead you home, to your truth, your power and new possibilities. I believe that you hold the answers of what is needed to heal and my role as counselor can be pivotal in revealing them. I want to work with you in pursuing and reclaiming the wholeness that is in you. I believe the counseling experience is unique to everyone and together, we will tailor it to your needs.

I am originally from Guadalajara, Jalisco – one of the most beautiful cities in Mexico and of course I say that not at all biased. I am fluent in English and Spanish and am immensely proud of my Mexican heritage. My husband and I are proud dog parents to our rescue pup, Rufus, an Olde English Bulldogge who is happiest when he eats and sleeps. Seattle has been home for the last 13 years and I have so much love for all it has to offer from the great outdoors to the fun restaurants and shopping!

Introducción en Español:

El hogar y el entorno en el que aterrizamos pueden enriquecer u obstaculizar el proceso de perseguir nuestros intereses y derechos innatos. Nuestra comprensión de la realidad (qué es posible, qué es verdad y cómo deberíamos ser) crece a partir de esto. Aunque estas percepciones son clave para nuestra supervivencia, pueden convertirse en patrones inflexibles que limitan nuestra experiencia de vida. Veo mi papel como un guía activa para ayudarte a regresar a tu centro y llevarte a casa, a tu verdad, tu poder y nuevas posibilidades. Creo que tienes las respuestas de lo que se necesita para sanar y mi papel como consejera puede ser fundamental para revelarlas. Quiero trabajar contigo en la búsqueda y recuperación de la integridad que hay en ti. Creo que la experiencia de la consejería es única para todos y juntos la adaptaremos a tus necesidades.

Soy originaria de Guadalajara, Jalisco, una de las ciudades más hermosas de México y por supuesto lo digo para nada parcial. Hablo Inglés y Español con fluidez y estoy inmensamente orgullosa de mi herencia Mexicana. Mi esposo y yo somos padres orgullosos nuestro cachorro rescatado, Rufus, un viejo Bulldog Inglés que es más feliz cuando come y duerme. Seattle ha sido mi hogar durante los últimos 13 años y me encanta todo lo que tiene para ofrecer, desde el aire libre hasta los restaurantes divertidos!

The path to healing is not one-size-fits-all or linear. Regardless of who you are, we're all out here just trying to be human. The decision to seek help is not an easy one, but my calling is to make the process feel safe, approachable, and welcomed. My goal is to be your mirror and witness to your story. I hope to create a collaborative and safe space to address your needs, achieve your goals, and bring peace and contentment to your whole self.

I believe optimal wellness is an individual human right, and strive to include a social justice mindset to everything I do, whether it be in the counselor's chair or in the community. I hope to be your counselor-advocate, helping you navigate your journey to optimal wellness.

I have a Bachelors in Therapeutic Recreation and minor in Psychology from Western Washington University. My path has led me to complete my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Antioch University Seattle. I have completed Person-of-the-Therapist training, as well as a certificate in Trauma Counseling. I am a queer, second-generation Filipinx-American, and I hope to reflect experiences that have been underrepresented in the mental health field. Researching service delivery to bridge the gap between the mental health field and communities of color is a professional aspiration of mine.

In my free time, I like spending quality time with my wife, exploring dairy and egg-free recipes and allergy-conscious restaurants in the city. I love listening to good music and watching all the binge-worthy dramas and horror movies.

I am a creative therapist and a passionate advocate for relational health. From a systems perspective, I believe that we all exist within the context of our meaningful relationships. With this lens, we consider how past experiences and current attachments set the emotional tone for your daily life. Good therapy looks radically different for each person, but it always starts with carving out an hour in your routine to make time for yourself, to reflect, to share, and to explore your inner landscape. I am here to partner alongside individuals, couples, and families as they navigate life's inevitable highs and lows. I meet my clients where they are, highlight their unique inner resources and strengths, and collaborate with them as they traverse their individualized therapeutic goals.

In addition to compassionate, person-centered talk therapy, I am a trained art therapist. I can provide a wide array of visual and expressive tools to help strengthen your creative voice and find deeper meaning through imagery and metaphor. You don't have to have any special skills or talent, and you don’t have to be a self-proclaimed artist to enjoy the benefits of creative expression. Research shows that simply playing with art materials can significantly reduce stress hormones and help people express themselves in the face of exhaustion, anxiety, or trauma. If you'd like to work together but aren't sure about using art, no worries! Therapy is an individualized journey and we will cater our work together to fit your specific goals!

I'm originally from Denver, and I made my way to Seattle in 2010. Previously I worked in horticulture, gardening, and floral design. I currently maintain a studio art practice in my spare time and love to create large-scale murals. I still draw inspiration from my gardening roots and believe we can learn a lot about our own emotional cycles from the natural world. I genuinely look forward to meeting new clients and learning from each individual's unique perspective as we form a supportive therapeutic alliance.

I am grateful to be a part of the No Stress No Stigma team, offering mental health counseling to individuals and couples of all backgrounds. Every human life has its share of difficulty, disappointment, and distress, and my passion is to help my clients see a way out. I do this by offering a warm, respectful relationship that acts as a healing container for you to find clarity that links your thoughts, feelings, and actions.

My receptive, strength-based style aims to create an authentic connection where we can address what’s really going on in your heart and mind. Whatever you are navigating—anxiety, depression, relationship problems, or other life challenges—I will collaborate with you to determine the best course for you to start feeling better, meeting your needs, and accomplishing your goals in life.

Before graduating from the master’s program in counseling at Antioch University Seattle, I spent a couple of decades in the legal profession and the publishing world. Many years ago, I became deeply interested in mindfulness and have spent more than a year of my life on silent meditation retreats. When not engaged in personal and professional growth, I like to climb mountains, solve word puzzles, and work on my jump shot.

*Not currently accepting new clients*

Being a human is hard. Coming to counseling takes courage. Let’s start this new chapter of your life together.

I believe in providing genuineness, empathy, and unconditional positive regard to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment for you to experience insight and growth. Empowerment is also an essential part of my counseling philosophy; through working together, I hope we can access the power that you have within yourself to rise against your problems. I use an integrationist approach, with a focus on narrative and cognitive-behavioral theories. This means that the process of examining personal stories and separating yourself from the problem, along with analyzing and reauthoring thoughts and behaviors are important parts of how I do counseling.

I am from Oregon, currently residing in Ellensburg, Washington. I have a BS in Psychology with a minor in writing and moved to Washington to obtain my Masters in Mental Health Counseling. I completed my practicum at Central Washington University. I love writing, playing various tabletop and video games, watching Netflix, and hanging out with my cat!

As we all try to navigate life’s highs and lows, I believe it is important to remember that we don’t have to do it alone. I believe that seeking therapy is an act of courage, and it takes a brave person to reach out for help. I strive to foster a welcoming and nonjudgmental environment where you feel safe to explore your whole self.

I work with individuals, couples and families. I believe in looking at a person from a holistic point of view to ensure that you have the opportunity to share your full unique story. I provide a therapeutic experience that allows you to share your story with me as I help to guide and support you through that process. I use several different modalities depending on what is best for you and your goals in therapy.

For teens, I strive to provide a space where they feel comfortable to explore themselves as they navigate new transitions in their life like school, relationships, family, independence, and values and beliefs. I believe it is important to meet teens where they are at and provide a space where they feel like they can be their true authentic selves. It’s important for me to help teens to identify their own strengths and feel confident in their identity and who they are.

I completed my bachelor's degree in Human Development and Family Studies at Utah State University. I furthered my education at Seattle University, earning my Masters in Couples and Family Therapy. Before continuing my education at Seattle University I worked in the mental health field with teenagers where I developed my passion for becoming a therapist.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my dog, traveling with my family, trying new restaurants, and planning my next road trip.
