I believe strongly in the inherent worth of people and viewing the human condition from a place that is non-pathological and intrinsically person-centered. Fundamentally, I seek to help people uncover the force that is within them all along- through cultivating a deeper understanding of their individual needs, values and goals.

Aundria

(She/Her)

The past is set but the future is still being written. Unfortunately, these past events have a way of creating false narratives about who we are and what we are capable of. Through self-discovery and persona growth, you can choose for yourself what you want and start living a life you look forward to living. Working together you will be able to identify false narratives and with support be empowered to rewrite them. Together we can discover what truly matters to you and how you can achieve these goals.

Jennelle

(She/They)

I truly enjoy listening to clients share their stories. I believe you are the expert on your life. I am here to listen compassionately and work collaboratively with you towards accomplishing your therapeutic goals. I am excited to reflect back to you the many strengths you already possess and to support you in developing skills that can make life easier and more fulfilling. One major hope I have for all of my clients is that they will learn to love and accept every part of themselves more fully.

In our work together it may be valuable for us to discuss the larger cultural systems we are living in. I believe much of human suffering is due to systems of oppression and the stress that comes from trying to survive in our competitive capitalist society. It can be helpful to acknowledge how these systems impact us and discuss both how we can care for ourselves while living within these systems and how we can find empowerment through challenging them.

In my free time, I can be found hanging out with my partner and friends, enjoying a variety of joyful movement hobbies, or cozy at home with my black cat.

My name is Jupiter McGee and I am a mental health counseling student based in Spokane, Washington. I strive to develop authentic connections with everyone I meet and foster deep community ties.

Mallory

My name is Mallory Thrall and I take a collaborative approach with my clients to establish goals and a plan that they feel is achievable to them.

It is my utmost aspiration to meet each wonderfully unique client with the support and genuineness that is so essential to an effective therapeutic alliance.

I was born here in Washington and love the outdoors of the PNW. I love travel, hiking and good food. In my spare time I enjoy painting, cooking, caring for my son, plants, and two cats. I chose counseling as my profession from inspiration as a client of therapy myself.

Xyla

(She/Her)

Welcome! I’m so glad you are here. My practice focuses on viewing the whole person, including their childhood, relationships, environment, mental and physical health. In our therapy sessions, you may see me referencing attachment theories and person-in-environment theory. I don’t rely on one specific modality to guide therapy. I use a combination of skills I’ve acquired from several modalities. Therapy is individualized for each person, and I think of our sessions as a team effort. We can work together to adjust therapy for you.

In a previous job, I led the development of a training on neurodiversity. I’m also well-versed in several chronic illnesses and pain conditions through hospital social work and lived experience.

My fellow zebras may be familiar with the saying coined by Theodore Woodward, “When you hear hoofbeats, think of horses, not zebras,” which is commonly taught to doctors. This saying often results in individuals feeling invalidated and questioning their symptoms. My hope is that my practice can be a safe space for zebras or anyone that is seeking out someone who will listen and validate their experience. My sessions are a safe space for sex workers, women identifying individuals, those in polyamorous relationships, BIPOC, and all others.
