Kathleen Elias

You may be struggling with a specific issue — depression, anxiety, stress, or another. Maybe your marriage or relationship has been damaged by infidelity or a loss of intimacy. Or maybe what you’re experiencing hasn’t been diagnosed or classified — you just know your life or relationship isn’t what you want it to be. For thirty years, I’ve helped individuals and couples gain a deeper understanding of themselves so they can find confidence, courage, and a better way forward. My approach is relational and supportive, drawing on contemporary research into the brain, trauma, and attachment. I’m highly accessible with offices on Bainbridge Island and in Seattle. And I offer evening and weekend hours. You’re welcome to take advantage of a free 30-minute consultation to prospective clients. Please reach out if you think I might be able to help.
