Tracy Askilsrud, MA, LMFT

I believe relationships are the most important element of a happy and healthy life, so improving your relationship with yourself as well as those around you will have an amazing impact on your day-to-day experience of life. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem or relational issues which are impacting how you interact with the world, I want to reassure you that there is help. Using my extensive background in attachment theory, interpersonal therapy, behavioral therapies, neuroscience, and sex therapy we can work together to tackle the issues that are currently impacting your quality of life.  You are not in this alone. After struggling with my own personal and relationship issues, I dedicated myself to learning how to create the changes that I wanted to see in my own life. You can always find me reading and learning more daily to expand and deepen my understanding of these issues and give you the highest level of care I'm able to. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist in Washington State with training in the following areas: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy (PACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method, Attachment-Based Family Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Sex Therapy.
