The approach I take is a bottom-up Psychodynamic approach.

I believe therapy is most effective when it feels safe, collaborative, and human. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and non-judgmental, with an emphasis on helping clients feel understood while building insight and emotional resilience.

I am a licensed therapist with advanced training in trauma-informed and parts-based approaches, including Internal Family Systems (IFS). I work primarily with adults, parents, and caregivers navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the impact of complex or relational trauma. Many of my clients are managing over-responsibility, boundary challenges, or the pressures of caregiving and midlife transitions.

I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and support clients exploring identity, authenticity, and belonging. I also enjoy working with parents of neurodiverse children and who may be neurodiverse themselves. My style blends evidence-based practices with warmth and flexibility, helping clients feel more grounded, connected to themselves, and better equipped to meet their lives with clarity and confidence.

I have over 10 years of social work experience and have worked with individuals from various backgrounds, from youth to the elderly. I have been a medical social worker for the larger part of my career, with an emphasis on geriatrics, dialysis, kidney disease, and transplant. I am passionate about social justice and equity issues and working with underrepresented and minority groups. Our culture can be a big part of who we are and how we identify, and I am very proud of my Hispanic heritage.

Hi, I’m Ashley therapist, animal lover, creative soul, and lifelong daydreamer. I bring a warm and down-to-earth approach to my work, and I believe that connection, curiosity, and authenticity are at the heart of healing.

When I’m not in session, you can usually find me lost in a good book especially fantasy, romantasy, or dark romance (I’m a proud BookTok girly). Some of my favorite reads have come straight from client recommendations. I always love hearing what’s on your bookshelf.

I’m also a big fan of all things crafty. Paper crafting is my go-to especially junk journals and mini albums but I’ve dabbled in wreaths, t-shirts, and tumblers. My creativity also spills into my love of music, which spans from Sleep Token to George Strait to Eminem. I’m always up for discovering new bands or catching a local show.

On slower days, I love wandering through antique stores and thrift shops. Most of my home is decorated with pieces that have a story either found secondhand or passed down through family. I find comfort in giving old things new life.

Animals have always been a grounding force in my world. I’ve been riding horses since I was four, and my heart horse, Kirby, is my trail buddy and snack-sharing best friend (she’s a big fan of applesauce and cupcakes). My two dogs, Oliver and Dottie, are certified therapy dogs who’ve joined me in visits to hospices, hospitals, nursing homes, and children’s reading programs. Together, Kirby, Oliver, and Dottie inspired the name Free to Wander Counseling, a reflection of my belief that healing often begins when we allow ourselves to explore, play, and connect in gentle, open-hearted ways.

Wherever you are on your journey, you are welcome here just as you are.

Hello! I am an experienced, knowledgeable clinician that provides warmth, humor and safety for my clients. If you are looking for an easy going, kind and caring clinician, I am your person. Looking forward to working with you on your wellness journey.

With 30 years of experience as a therapist, I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Stanford University, specializing in school and community-based counseling. I'm dedicated to guiding clients through challenges like trauma, anxiety, and depression, fostering self-awareness and providing practical strategies for greater clarity and fulfillment. My practice is built on a compassionate approach, crafting personalized, evidence-based therapy to help you thrive. I also bring a unique perspective from my work as a university professor and international consultant, promoting mental health equity and inclusivity worldwide.

My name is Cody Brumbelow. I have been a counselor now for 5 years, both in schools and with individuals clinically. I graduated from UT in Chattanooga, TN and have been working with clients in Washington State virtually ever since. Clients with any presenting concerns or diagnoses are welcome to work with me. Adults with depression, anxiety, trauma, and problems with self-concept have been the core of my work.

As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, my approach is rooted in the belief that therapy should be as human as it is healing. My path here was shaped by years of living and working within low-income communities, where I saw firsthand the systemic barriers that keep BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ individuals from getting the care they deserve. This sparked my mission to provide truly accessible, inclusive support.

In our sessions, you’ll find a space defined by warmth, humor, and genuine collaboration. I don’t just see a set of symptoms; I see a whole person. With a background in Anthropology and Social Work, I’m dedicated to understanding the 'big picture' of your life, helping us build a meaningful partnership where you feel fully seen and accepted.I specialize in working with clients navigating Trauma, Depression, Gender-Based/Sexual/Emotional Abuse, Neurodivergence (including ADHD and ASD), Relationship Issues, Life Transitions, and Self-Esteem challenges.
