MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE, COUPLES THERAPY & INDIVIDUAL THERAPY, ONLINE SESSIONS, AND MORE ON QUEEN ANNE IN SEATTLE
We’re living in unprecedented times. On one hand, we have opportunities and abundance unlike any generation before us—but on the other hand, we’re faced with big upheaval and a lot of uncertainty. And then you factor in the challenging relationships, work and money stress, and a restless anxiety about the past, present, and future. If you’re exhausted, depressed, angry, afraid, unmotivated, and uninspired, that’s because you’re a thinking, feeling human in a difficult world. But that which makes you alive and sensitive can also restore balance, and bring hope and well-being back into your daily life.
At Anchor Light Therapy Collective, we’re known for employing both modern and traditional therapeutic modalities. We partner with you to find an approach that fits your personality and your situation.
STRATEGIES
FOR FINDING
LOVE, STAYING
IN LOVE, AND
LOVING YOUR LIFE
People choose to connect with a
therapist for many different reasons
but what they all have in common is
that they have the intention of living
a richer, more meaningful life.
HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT THERAPIST FOR YOU
It’s actually pretty simple. Finding the right
therapist is all about finding a comfortable, easy
connection. The best way to get a feel for that is
to schedule a no-cost consultation. It’s easy, and
we love hearing from folks who are about to
make positive changes in their lives.
Anchor Light Therapy Collective founder Laura Richer (LMHCA, CHt) works with folks who are focused on any number of life issues, but she specializes in love—finding love, staying in love, and healing after love has ended. As a radio host, workshop leader, psychotherapist, and hypnotherapist, she’s helped men and women from all walks of life gain confidence and have fun in the dating scene. Her growing couples therapy practice—informed by her work with the famed Gottman Institute and their Gottman Method of Couples Counseling—has opened up all kinds of real-world insight on what really works for couples in today’s complicated world.
Michelle Mooney (LMHCA) is the newest therapist at Anchor Light Therapy Collective; she brings a particular interest in working with people who are navigating trauma. After spending several years in community health and crisis-intervention, Michelle has developed an expertise in several key trauma-informed strategies. She works closely with her clients to cultivate valuable self-worth, mindfulness, and security in the face of great pain, grief, and perceived powerlessness.
