Melinda Boonstra

Hello, my name is Melinda, and I am a therapist in Washington State. I love working with people who have anxiety and/or depression, especially with women and moms whether they be postpartum or perimenopausal.

I have current openings on Mondays and Tuesdays as of 10/21/24. I meet with clients in person in Mount Vernon, WA or virtually with clients in Washington State.

My practice helps people in difficult points in their lives to handle anxiety, depression, or postpartum mood disorders by providing counseling that is focused on the whole person and considers the circumstances of life. I am trained in and offer both Internal Family Systems and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

My goal as your therapist is to listen to your story and help you access self compassion while also providing coping skills and frameworks to understand yourself better.

The goals for our time together are set by you and I will provide guidance and support through evidence based practices. My clients tell me that I am approachable, sometimes funny, and that I explain things in ways that are easy to understand. Each session we would check in on your week and discuss your goals and celebrate wins or go over barriers. I look forward to hearing your story and helping you reach your goals.
