Federal Way, WA Marriage & Family Counselor
Lou Dodson Counseling & Psychotherapy
Personal Statement
“If you are hurting and believe there is no hope for relief or change, I know that relief is possible, and change within reach. I provide a safe, empowering, and empathic counseling relationship to help healing your wounds and achieve positive changes. Many clients come to me because past neglect, abuse, and betrayal have kept them stuck in a vicious cycle of self-defeating thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and they want to feel better. If you have problems with communication and intimacy in relationships, or suffer from depression, anxiety, PTSD, or addictions, I may be the right therapist for you.

My approach is psychodynamic, humanistic, and based on family systems. I also use other methods, such as cognitive-therapy, transpersonal, and other techniques to help solve your problems. I believe that every human being has the strength and capacity to heal, grow, and discover their inner qualities and their real selves.

Counseling is a journey of self-discovery, and moving out of the shadow of difficulties, and into the light of better understanding of self in relation to others. I offer 30 years clinical experience, 15 or which in private practice in Stockholm, Sweden; confidence in our work together; and my commitment and support throughout your journey.”
