Mauricio Perez

Puyallup, Washington - Clinical Social Worker/therapist
Online
In Person

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Washington State with extensive experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, and work-life balance. I have helped many people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about their next steps find clarity, stability, and meaningful change. My journey into this profession has been unique. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over a decade as a monk, living and working abroad. During that time, I developed a deep understanding of the human experience—its struggles, contradictions, and potential for growth. This background continues to shape my work today, helping me identify deeper patterns while also offering practical, grounded guidance that clients can apply in their daily lives. My therapy style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I believe in treating every person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, without judgment or stigmatizing labels. My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based practices, and insight-oriented work. I tailor each session to your specific needs, focusing not only on understanding your challenges but also on helping you make concrete, sustainable changes. I care deeply about helping people improve their lives. If you are feeling stagnant, navigating difficult emotions, or ready for growth, therapy can be a powerful step forward. Together, we’ll work to help you get unstuck and move toward the life you want—one step at a time. It takes courage to seek change and pursue a more fulfilling life. If you’re ready, I’m here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you.

Anthonie Etienne

Puyallup, Washington - Marriage And Family Therapist
Online
In Person

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) , a Pastoral Counselor, and an Ordained Minister. I truly have joy serving those who are in need of realignment in their daily lives. Genuinely reaching the heart of any challenges/trials in life opens the opportunity of building from the inside out. Working on our relationship, which will be built on being heard and developing solutions together, creates empowerment to conquer all. My approach to serving involves using methods that create spiritual growth, character formation, strength, and courage to overcome challenges/trials of various kinds. By using Christian Psychology, this establishes a solid foundation that allows those being served to build themselves up with qualities that will assist in binding wounds through healing, increasing self-control, increasing self-worth, and increasing stability. Walking together in this process develops our relationship, which will develop your personal transformation of mind, heart, and spirit. Serving children, youth, adolescents, families, youth in foster care, foster families, and individuals who have disruptions in their personal and/or family dynamics is my focus. Life challenges that develop an imbalance in mental, emotional, social, and psychological stability are conditions that can be treated by using various methods, which in turn, can increase quality of life. When serving you and/or your family, I will always have an open ear that validates and acknowledges the challenges/trials you are experiencing. As I am able to keep a tone built on a non-judgmental approach and a level of comfort that opens the opportunity to “let it all out”, it will create the necessary and safe atmosphere for a positive outcome.
