My Approach to Therapy

Let’s be real… Hi, I’m Raleigh! I promise to always be up front and honest with you so let’s get a tough conversation out of the way… Therapy is hard work. You probably found your way here because you feel stuck, alone, confused or afraid and if you’ve seen commercials or pop psychology selling you the latest quick path to eternal happiness then you might start to wonder if you are the problem… I hate to break the illusion but those easy solutions do not exist. Even the most talented therapist can’t help you to insight without time and the most important part of the puzzle: Your inner world and commitment to trying something new. Life is an ebb and flow of good times and tough times. Can we maximize your happiness? Absolutely — But can we become so enlightened that we never have to experience hardship, suffering, loneliness, heartbreak or grief ever again? Unfortunately not… That’s the bad news but let’s get to the good news: We can learn to ride the ebbs and flows of life — and just as happiness can teach us depths of feelings that we never knew existed, pain can also be a teacher if we can find the bravery to face it head on. That’s where I come in! I can’t promise it will be easy but I can promise that you won’t have to do it alone. If you can find it in yourself to do the work then I will be with you every step of the way with my knowledge, expertise, curiosity, understanding and toolkit of evidence-based and holistic therapeutic techniques. Together we can work to create the individualized therapy to empower you to build the authentic and fulfilling life that YOU want… It all sounds a little bittersweet doesn’t it? Well the only way out is through — but the juice is worth the squeeze, I promise.

About me as a human!

I am a born and raised Washingtonian and received my Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Behavioral Neuroscience in 2016 from Western Washington University. Since then, I have worked in various capacities in the neuroscience research and medical fields including coordinating research at the University of Washington’s Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences (ILABS) and providing treatments for medication-resistant mental illness such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and ketamine infusions. These experiences confirmed my lifelong passion to be a source of support and understanding in other’s lives. This led me to a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and Wellness from New York University in 2022. I am currently a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate. I believe my background in various realms of the mental health world gives me a unique, holistic and integrative approach to viewing mental health issues. This allows me the ability to meet clients where they are at more fully and provide tailored care. At the end of the day though, I am just passionate about helping and understanding the people in my community and feel privileged to be able to hear their stories evolve and change. Outside the therapy room I enjoy playing and composing music and have played guitar for over 20 years. I have a passion for passion and enjoy art that evokes emotion in any form. I enjoy reading fantasy and sci-fi novels (when I am not keeping up to date on the latest literature in therapy), playing difficult video games and I have a lifelong love for film and television. When I don’t have my guitar or a book in my hand you can find me going for a mental health walk, spending time in nature, or watching live music!
