Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Yakima, WA

I am a licensed mental health counselor. I work adult clients in private practice setting

I’m a licensed psychologist with more than three decades of experience in psychotherapy, psychological assessment, and trauma-informed care. My background includes extensive work with adults, adolescents, and children across private practice, medical settings, and the VA’s PTSD clinic, where I provided both treatment and disability evaluations. I completed my doctorate at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in an APA-approved Counseling Psychology program and an APA-accredited internship with broad training in assessment, psychotherapy, and multidisciplinary collaboration. I specialize in trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, dissociation, family-of-origin issues, and helping people untangle long-standing patterns that keep them stuck. My style is warm, open-minded, and direct, meeting people right where they are while helping them move toward where they want to be.

I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to connect to others through compassion, meaningful conversations and authenticity. I started my own mental health journey when I was affected by crippling anxiety in my twenties. I felt alone and ashamed and really just needed someone to listen compassionately. I now want to offer this to others.

I received my BA in Social Sciences from Washington State University and went on to finish my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy at Touro University. I have three years of clinical experience and have worked with individuals, couples, and families. My main focus is: self-esteem, anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, life transitions, relationship issues, and communication.

I am a good match for clients who want to:

• improve self-esteem
• reduce anxiety and/ or depression
• improve how they communicate with others
• learn how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and how they can utilize new skills to make changes in their lives
• accept themselves for who they are now, while committing to growth
• be as kind to themselves as they are to others
• understand and utilize neurodivergence to reach their full potential

I am not a good match for those who require very specialized care, including clients who are experiencing active:

• delusions, hallucinations, or paranoia
• suicidal ideation or self-harm
• addiction
• disordered eating
• personality disorder, i.e., borderline, narcissistic, etc.
• domestic violence
• obsessive-compulsive disorder

I am also not a good match for those who are seeking therapy with the primary or secondary goal of obtaining a letter or testimony from a therapist for legal, employment reasons, etc.

Hello and welcome! My name is Carly Fritz. I am a licensed mental health counselor based in Seattle. I earned my BA in Psychology from the University of Washington and my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Seattle University. I enjoy helping individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, family & relationship difficulties, stress/burnout, self-esteem, identity exploration, and life transitions.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work, and I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My approach is practical, supportive, and focused on helping you create meaningful change in your life.

I believe that success looks different for everyone. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you move toward where you want to be—whether that’s improving your mental health, navigating life transitions, or building healthier patterns and relationships. Together, we’ll identify what’s working, what’s not, and develop tools that help you feel more confident and in control.

I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported while also being gently challenged to grow in ways that align with your goals

A big passion of mine is supporting moms through all stages of motherhood. Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, adjusting to life as a new mom, balancing work and family, feeling overwhelmed, or trying to find yourself again outside of motherhood — you don’t have to figure it all out alone. Motherhood can be beautiful and exhausting all at once, and I love creating a space where moms can feel supported, understood, and able to show up for themselves too.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I hold a Bachelors of Science in Psychology from James Madison University. I also hold a Master's degree and Educational Specialist degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from James Madison University. I have provided outpatient counseling services in multiple community settings including higher education, military counseling centers and veteran's counseling centers.
