Therapy that works with how your brain actually works, instead of asking you to mask through it.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you’ve felt misunderstood or like you’ve had to figure things out on your own. I believe healing happens in the context of a safe, authentic relationship, and I strive to create a space where you feel seen, respected, and genuinely supported.

Background

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a Master of Education in Counseling from the University of Puget Sound. I work with people from a wide range of backgrounds, identities, and life experiences. I have over 3 years of experience supporting clients and families who are working through trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, neurodivergence, and gender identity, as well as other concerns. I’m LGBTQ+ affirming and strive to create a space where every person’s story is heard and valued.

I’m passionate about making therapy feel approachable and accessible, especially for anyone who may feel unsure or hesitant about reaching out. I also bring my love of art, creativity, and nature into my work, helping clients explore their strengths, build confidence, and reconnect with themselves in ways that feel meaningful.

Approach 

My work is grounded in a person-centered, relational approach, which means I see you as the expert in your own life and we work together to understand your experiences and goals. I take a trauma-informed approach and draw on evidence-based practices including CBT, DBT, ERP (for OCD), and EMDR. I also incorporate mindfulness and creative tools when helpful, tailoring therapy to fit your needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

You don’t have to work through things alone. If you’re thinking about starting therapy, I’m here to support you in making sense of your experiences and moving toward the life you want. Reaching out is the first step, and I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

Welcome 
Hi, I’m Stacy Lanier (she/they), a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate in Washington and Texas. I specialize in helping individuals, teens, couples, and families work through life’s toughest moments, whether they are dealing with anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, or strained communication.

If you’re reading this, you’ve already taken a powerful step toward healing. I want to honor that courage. Therapy can be a place of transformation, but it doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical. I bring warmth, authenticity, and a deep respect for your story into every session. Whether you’re neurodivergent, working through family transitions, or trying to rewrite the script of how you show up in relationships, I’m here for it, and I’m here for you.

Background 
Before I became a therapist, I spent years walking alongside people through grief, change, and growth as a caregiver, parent, advocate, and community leader. Those lived experiences, along with a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University and advanced training in EMDR and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, profoundly inform my work.

I have guided families through trauma recovery, identity shifts, and grief healing. I have created a supportive space for teens grappling with abandonment, for partners feeling trapped in old conflict patterns, and for individuals striving to reclaim their worth after years of self-doubt. My own journey has been shaped by movement across states, systems, and roles, and I understand what it is like to reimagine life in the face of change.

Approach

My therapy style is relational, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all approaches. Therapy with me is tailored specifically for you. I integrate systemic thinking, Narrative Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and various other modalities to help you explore the narratives and patterns that shape your life.

We might map your relationship cycles, externalize a negative self-belief, explore the roles different “parts” play inside you, or practice new communication strategies. You’ll find our sessions filled with metaphor, curiosity, a touch of humor, and an ongoing invitation to be your true self.

My areas of focus include:

• LGBTQ+ mental health and identity development.
• Parenting and supporting neurodivergent adolescents.
• Trauma and complicated grief.
• Attachment wounds and relational healing.
• Boundaries, self-esteem, and emotional regulation.
• Family systems and attachment repair.
• Relationship difficulties and communication challenges.

Closing 
I believe therapy is a sacred space where insight, courage, and connection come together. If you’re ready to begin your healing journey, or even just curious about what it might involve, I’d love to meet you right where you are.

Healing isn’t about perfection, it’s about connection.
Whether you’re looking to understand yourself more deeply, mend a strained relationship, or start a new chapter in life, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

Hello there! My name is Kore Fredericks (they/them) and I’m an associate mental health counselor (LMHCA, LIC# 70040699). I enjoy working with couples, families, adults, teens, and children as young as 6 years old in-person or over telehealth. As a transmasc person with ADHD, I’m also passionate about serving trans, queer, and neurodivergent people. My other areas of focus are life adjustment issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, behavioral issues, relationship issues, developmental stages, and identity exploration.

Background

I grew up in rural Eastern Washington and spent most of my early 20s in Los Angeles. I received my bachelor’s in Psychology and Criminal Justice from Azusa Pacific University and my master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Seattle University. I have experience working with transgender and cisgender adolescents, teens, and adults. I’ve worked with youth struggling with life stage development as well as difficulties adjusting to new life circumstances. I’ve also worked with clients facing relationship and familial issues. Many of my clients have been autistic and/or had ADHD or were experiencing debilitating symptoms of anxiety or trauma.

Even living in places lacking a LGBTQ+ presence, I’ve endeavored to surround myself with community. This informs my passion for working with queer people and marginalized populations. I strongly believe that having bonds with people who see you and celebrate you is a fundamental part of wellbeing. This is why having a relationship with a therapist you trust can be so powerful on your journey to growth.

Approach

I love working as a counselor, not just because I want to help people, but because I’m always amazed by my clients. In my work, I’ve seen that all people possess incredible potential, vast emotional depths, and an unshakeable will to grow. My job is to provide an environment where you can feel safe to discover and explore these aspects of yourself.

I strive to build strong trust with my clients, and to that end, I use a collaborative and relational approach. Therapy works best when you feel supported, not judged, and in control of pacing and direction of sessions. I believe that every person has the capacity to practice self-advocacy and self-compassion, and I will be there to support you with optimism, patience, and unconditional positive regard.

As social beings, none of us exists in a vacuum. In our work together, I’ll draw from feminist and systemic frameworks. I’ll offer you considerations on how we operate and are affected by the political and social systems we live within in order to better understand yourself and the people around you. I also use mindfulness skills, as well as techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Trauma-Informed Care (TIC).

I am a dedicated and compassionate counselor with experience in working with youth and young adults. My therapeutic approach is rooted in evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which I tailor to each individual’s unique needs and circumstances. My practice is trauma-informed, emphasizing safety, collaboration, and empowerment throughout the therapeutic journey. 

I believe that everything in life is about finding balance. Therapy, to me, is about working towards the balance of mental and emotional health. We are all human, and life is unpredictable, which brings with it many stressors and causes mental distress. Therapy is a tool you can use to develop coping and positive relationship skills to support yourself in becoming a healthier version of yourself. 

From an early age and throughout different stages of my life, I experienced trauma in various forms. The experiences that I had caused me to seek support for myself and later sparked a desire to help support others in the process of finding their balance of mental and emotional health. 

In 2007, I began volunteering with at-risk youth who were part of the child welfare system and exhibited behavioral issues. After doing this for a couple of years, I realized I was passionate about working with youth and others who had experienced trauma. In 2016, I went to school intending to work in social welfare and eventually clinical therapy practice. 

In 2019, I completed a year-long internship with King County Juvenile Court as a probation counselor. Since then, I have worked professionally with youth involved in our criminal justice and child welfare systems as an employee at Echo Glen Children’s Center and the Department of Child Welfare. Since beginning in therapy, I have worked with clients in offices and provided in-school services to children, youth, and adults experiencing anxiety and depression, family conflict, as well as trauma and loss. I have a Master’s of Social Work from the University of Washington Tacoma. 

About my approach: My therapeutic approach is collaborative, client-centered, and strength-based. I believe in empowering my clients to actively participate in their healing

journey. Together, we set achievable goals and work towards them using evidence-based techniques. My empathetic and non-judgmental demeanor allows clients to explore their thoughts and feelings openly, leading to deeper insights and lasting positive changes. 

Specializations: 

• Anxiety and Depression 
• Emotional Regulation
