Individual Therapy in Seattle
If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, interpersonal issues, or other mental health struggles, therapy can help. At Mettarel we go beyond talk therapy to work with you to create actual change. Not only can you open up about your feelings and what you are going through to a non-judgmental, unbiased third party, but we will work with you to experience a shift in long lasting patterns stuck in your somatic and neurobiological self. This changes your experience, which changes your behavior, and thus your results. As necessary, you may also learn effective coping strategies and evidence-based techniques to experience relief from your symptoms.

We Are Here To Help!
At Mettarel, we offer in-person and online individual therapy appointments for adults in the Greater Seattle area.

Conditions We Treat With Individual Therapy
Individual therapy can help with virtually any condition or issue someone is faced with. Whether it be lifelong depression and anxiety, coming to terms with one’s sexuality, or simply wanting to better yourself and get more out of life, therapy is an invaluable resource. Here are some of the conditions we treat with individual therapy at Mettarel:

ADHD
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by attention deficit, hyperactivity, and impulsiveness. Additionally, patients often experience a lack of motivation, chronic procrastination, difficulty completing tasks, anxiety, and difficulty within relationships. ADHD can have a significant impact on one's quality of life if not properly managed through therapy and lifestyle changes.

Anxiety
Anxiety manifests itself as excessive feelings of tension, unease, uncertainty, hypervigilance, fear, and worried or negative thoughts. Common anxiety disorders include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and social phobia. Therapy is a great way to uncover the root cause of your anxiety and learn coping strategies to manage symptoms.

Depression
Depression is a mood disorder that causes sadness, hopelessness, loss of interest in activities, and withdrawal from everyday life. These intense feelings of sadness can greatly interfere with one's daily thoughts, behaviors, and actions and negatively impact their quality of life. At Mettarel, we utilize evidence-based therapeutic treatments to help patients get to the root of their depression and implement positive changes.

Stress & Life Transitions
Many of us encounter a variety of stressors throughout everyday life. Work demands, financial difficulties, health concerns, relationship conflicts, and significant change can trigger stress and anxiety. Individual therapy can help you open up about issues, manage stress levels, and feel much-needed relief.

Life Dissatisfaction
Therapy can be a valuable resource for anyone feeling stuck or dissatisfied in their personal or professional life. Whether it's self-doubt, lack of direction, or commitment issues, a therapist can closely work with you to identify these limiting beliefs and develop strategies for lasting change.

Trauma
At Mettarel , we understand that trauma can manifest itself in various ways. That's why we offer trauma therapy services that are tailored to your individual needs. Our Trauma informed therapy services are conducted by professionals with experience in treating trauma-related difficulties and stopping places. Let us help you to heal, in a safe, supportive and confidential environment.
