Helping You Find Balance in the Rough Seas of Life


What To Expect At Your Visit
Our first few sessions will consist of gathering relevant information required to tailor a unique treatment approach to your individual needs. I use tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Common Elements Treatment Approach, Motivational Interviewing, and other therapeutic modalities in order to provide structure for how we will begin to move towards healing with these evidence-based practices.

About Me
My name is Stephen McCrea, and I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington State.
After nearly 14 years in the U.S. Navy, I felt called to a new mission—helping others heal and rediscover hope. My time in service taught me resilience, empathy, and the strength people can find within themselves, even in life’s most difficult moments.
I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Psychology from Brandman University and have since worked with individuals and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health challenges.
My approach is compassionate and person-centered. I believe in treating the whole person—not just the diagnosis—and in creating a space where clients can feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow.
It’s an honor to walk beside people on their path toward healing and self-discovery. If you’re ready to take that next step, I’d be privileged to be part of your journey.
