Elizabeth Webber-Mikaele

I’m Elizabeth Webber-Mikaele, LMHC, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington State. I have spent my career supporting children, teens, and adults through life’s challenges with compassion, respect, and practical tools for change.

My background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Multicultural Social Services from the University of Washington and a Master’s degree in Education with a School Counseling certification, along with National Board Certification in School Counseling. I am also a National Certified Counselor and Approved Clinical Supervisor, which allows me to mentor and supervise counseling professionals across the country.

Over the years, I have worked in schools, community programs, and clinical settings, helping individuals navigate anxiety, stress, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I have a particular passion for working with women, adolescents, and children, helping them build confidence, emotional resilience, and a stronger sense of self.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I draw from evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral and trauma-informed approaches while tailoring therapy to each person’s unique needs, experiences, and goals.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, navigating a difficult season, or simply seeking personal growth, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each individual. I believe that every person’s experiences, strengths, and challenges are unique, so I work closely with clients to understand their story and identify meaningful goals for growth and healing.

I use evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral and trauma-informed strategies, to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we build practical skills to manage stress, strengthen relationships, and navigate life’s challenges with greater confidence and resilience.

I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood. Therapy with me is not about judgment—it is about partnership. My role is to help you gain insight, develop new tools, and move toward the life you want to create.

I have a particular passion for working with women, children, and adolescents who may be navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or past experiences that continue to impact their well-being.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building a comfortable, supportive therapeutic relationship. Many people feel nervous about starting therapy, and that’s completely normal. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming environment where you can share at your own pace.

During our first session, we will talk about what brought you to therapy, the challenges you may be facing, and what you hope to gain from the process. I may ask questions about your background, current stressors, and the areas of your life you would like to improve. This helps me better understand your experiences and how I can support you.

Together, we will begin identifying goals for therapy and discuss what progress might look like for you. My approach is collaborative, so we will work as a team to create a plan that feels meaningful and achievable.

By the end of the session, many clients leave with a clearer sense of direction, practical insights, and reassurance that they are not facing things alone.
