With Open Heart I Wish Greetings to All, I pride myself on meeting clients "where they are at" by initially providing much needed support and relief. Following is one of my favorite quote's - "One CAN walk over the highest mountain one step at a time." I assist you in defining your "goal" and taking your "first small step." I am Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Washington with over 25 years of experience in the psychocounseling field and as a life coach. I have successfully helped clients navigate such issues as depression, stress, anxiety, grief and loss (to include the loss of a pet), eating disorders (to include weight loss surgery and management), trauma, ADD and ADHD and coping with life changes. In addition my work has taken me throughout the US and overseas providing Military and Family Life Counseling. I appreciate that every client is unique. To that end, I approach each of you with warmth, caring, and support. I have used many proven therapeutic techniques over the years such as Positive Psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Mindfulness and more to assist you to reach your desired goals. I thoroughly enjoy working with any age of client - from teens through adults with any orientation. Thanks ahead of time for choosing me. I honor your courage and empower you every "small step" of the way toward your goals and beyond.

Your Authentic Self, Your Strongest Self: Therapy Tailored in a Safe, Supportive Space Hello! I'm Dr. Andrew Mendonsa, a clinical psychologist and therapist with 20+ years of experience helping folks like you navigate life's complexities and embrace their true potential and authentic self. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ individuals, those struggling with problematic sexual behavior, kink/alt lifestyle/polyamory-focused issues, and anyone seeking a male therapist's perspective. My journey through the worlds of mental health and addiction – from community mental health and marginalized groups, to the criminal justice system, to high wealth clients and corporate boardrooms – has equipped me with a deep understanding of the challenges clients, especially men and those from specialized populations, face today. I've helped countless individuals overcome shame, guilt, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and the unique pressures of modern life. As an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist, I offer a safe and judgment-free space to explore your identity, gender, relationships, sexual expression, and sexuality. Whether you're questioning, coming out, or navigating the unique stressors of the LGBTQIA+, kink, alt-pop, or straight communities, I'm here to support you on your journey! For those grappling with problematic sexual behavior that is causing issues with your work, relationships, finance, or other areas, I provide a compassionate and non-judgmental approach to recovery. I will not tell you to stop what you are doing or else, instead we will identify what is motivating your behavior and desire to change. Knowing these, we can then develop a tailored treatment plan and achievable goals. Together, we'll address the underlying issues, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and rebuild a fulfilling life free from shame, guilt, and compulsive behaviors. My extensive background working with high-achieving individuals in business and academia makes me uniquely equipped to understand the pressures of professional life. If you're struggling with work-related stress, burnout, or career transitions, I can offer practical strategies for success and well-being. I have owned, sold, and managed companies and worked in high levels within the public sector. My approach to therapy is collaborative, goal-oriented, and results-driven. I believe therapy should be a catalyst for change, not a lifelong commitment. Think of it like a tune-up for your mind – we'll get you back on track and running smoothly. You wouldn't leave your car in the shop forever, would you? So why force yourself into a lifetime of therapy? I invite you to visit my website, www.AndrewMendonsa.com, to learn more about me and my approach. Let's work together to build a life that is authentic, fulfilling, and true to you.

I am licensed in Washington with 10 years of professional counseling experience and hundreds of proud and happier clients. I work with clients ranging in ages from young teens with weak self-understanding and self-esteem to clients in their senior years, dealing with devastating losses, deaths, grief, and disturbing changes. I have observed that anxiety is one of the greatest reasons my clients give for seeking help. Sleep difficulties and resultant depressive symptoms so often run hand-in-hand with anxiety and high levels of stress. In therapy, we work from the inside out as we explore what we know, what we can change, how we can grow and how we can better respect and give to ourselves and to others in our lives. Relationship or communication issues are often reasons given by couples or domestic partners when they are experiencing a breakdown in their coupleship. These relationships too often combine ineffective coping patterns that were actually learned early in each individual person's childhood homes. I work with my clients to create a trusting and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear or judgment. Another area is working through trauma , whether it be a one-time natural disaster or complex trauma that can so often follow family addiction, neglect, emotional abuse, mental illness or death of a sibling or parent...all traumas that drain us of personal confidence and positive self-esteem. Without those, we often have difficulty creating helpful ways of making wise decisions or even trouble being able to judge who is good for us or who might be toxic or dangerous in our life. Doing important "deep dives" to change maladaptive issues can truly help us change negative patterns, learn more effective coping strategies, change thinking patterns, and being willing to respect and value the differences in a friend or partner, resulting in greater respect for themselves and our partners. Teens far too often today are dealing with bullying, social media that begs comparison with others who look "perfect" but gradually damages a young person's self-esteem and personal confidence which is at the core of becoming and being our best selves. Finally, I enjoy working with those trying to recover from addiction and working with their families so they can take better care of themselves and their families in the face of addiction. I can help teach much about learning to feel less afraid, less trapped by their loved one's addiction. There are certain ways we can begin to live our lives emotionally more removed from the addiction that plagues our family. We can then work gently toward a healthier individual understanding and family wholeness. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy does take courage but the results of living a better, more enjoyable life is so worth the work and the effort to change. We can grow, ask the right questions, and gain pride in ourselves as we see change day by day and week by week. Hurray for getting started!!!

I believe that when people find and embrace their own strengths and trust in themselves; they can make positive changes in their lives. It's important to me that I provide a warm and trusting place for my clients to explore, grow, and thrive in. I draw from my experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused, and Mindfulness modalities to tailor therapy to meet each of my clients needs and preferences. I graduated summa cum laude with a Master's of Science in mental health counseling in 2015. I have experience in hospital settings conducting behavioral health assessments and providing crisis intervention/stabilization, treatment, and discharge planning. In individual therapy, I have helped clients with depression, anxiety, grief, trauma/loss, domestic violence, neglect/abuse, substance abuse, body image and self-esteem, suicidal ideation/non-suicidal self-injury, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, dementia, and chronic medical conditions.
