Aloha!
I’m Chascity and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker Associate in Washington State. I previously worked with children, adolescents, families, and individuals in outpatient counseling, schools, residential treatment, and in the medical setting. I currently specialize in supporting young adults, women, and individuals experiencing anxiety, stress, adjustment issues (ie entering college, adulthood, etc.), parenting, family issues, relationships, and self-esteem.
Growing up in Hawaii and being multiethnic has given me a deep appreciation for many cultures and perspectives. As a therapist, I aim to create a safe space where you can explore your own culture(s), beliefs, and identity. My goal is to help you feel truly seen, heard, and understood as you navigate your counseling journey.
I strive to create an atmosphere that feels like talking with a close friend– someone who listens intently, without judgment, and with deep empathy. My approach is relaxed and conversational, allowing clients to explore their thoughts and emotions. I also believe in growth and healing, which means I don’t shy away from challenging or uncomfortable topics. I gently encourage my clients to explore difficult feelings, thoughts, and experiences, while helping them navigate these areas with care and compassion. My goal is to offer a balance between being a supportive, grounding presence and facilitating meaningful insight and change.
