Hi! We are so happy you found us. Searching for the right therapist can feel stressful and confusing. Realizing that it’s time to face challenges in your life can also come with a mixture of emotions. Deciding to come to therapy is not easy, so we commend you for taking this courageous step. Thrive Therapy NW is a group of passionate therapists who truly, deeply care about the people we work with. We prioritize a modern approach to therapy, including being ourselves, relating to you, and facilitating a genuine connection. We emphasize a safe, supportive, judgement-free environment for you to explore yourself and your world fully. Therapy is a fantastic way to gain perspectives, insights, and understandings into life’s challenges, as well as learn tools and strategies to navigate through it all.

Our Approach
At a baseline level, we emphasize a trauma-focused approach to therapy, meaning we prioritize building trust and safety, body/nervous system awareness, tolerance levels, and slower processing as a part of the therapeutic experience. Most of us have experienced some form of trauma (no matter how big or small), and unfortunately, many traditional therapy practices are not trauma-informed. It is a value of ours not to create an experience that could be retraumatizing.
In addition to this, we also emphasize a relational and humanistic approach to therapy, meaning we focus on building real, genuine connection with our clients. You won’t find a blank-slate therapist here! A huge part of feeling safe in therapy is building a healthy attachment/connection, and we believe that works best when we are all showing up as ourselves.
