Our Team At the Port Orchard Wing

Welcome! My name is Katy (she/her pronouns), and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family

Therapist Associate. I obtained my MA in Marriage and Family Therapy and graduate Certificate

in Addiction Studies from Antioch University in Seattle. If you are reading this: Kudos to you!

Reaching out for mental health care for yourself and/or your family can be hard, but you have

taken some of the first steps towards a better life.

Providing therapy is the culmination of my life’s calling to help facilitate deep,

meaningful change for others. I have worked with families with teens/tweens from many backgrounds seeking help

with strengthening their relationships. I believe we all innately already possess what we need to

heal and experience joy, but sometimes need help finding ways to remove the obstacles to this.

The clients/couples/families with teens I work with are the experts of their lives, and I partner with them to bring

out their natural strengths.

I focus on working with couples and families with teens facing a variety of challenges such as

anxiety, depression, substance use, and trauma that is impacting these relationships. I also work

with individuals seeking help with similar issues. I pull from many types of therapy approaches,

but often lean towards Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy,

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Somatic Experiencing. The work we do will be

tailored to what works best for you and your needs. I am an LGBTQIA+, disability, racial and

social justice ally. I strive to create a safe, open space for those who identify with many in my

office.

I was fortunate to be born and raised on Whidbey Island. I have lived in various places throughout Western Washington in my adult life, and absolutely love this corner of the world.
I am an

avid hiker/backpacker throughout the mountains and forests of the Cascades and Olympics,

where I recharge my batteries. I also love yoga, writing, dancing, and other creative endeavors.

 Welcome, I am glad you made it! My name is Maxie. Washington became home for me in 2016 after living in the Southwest majority of my life. I am married and have three young kiddos. I have found a love of working alongside individuals who find themselves struggling with finding purpose and identity. Whether you are a new parent working your way back to yourself (or your partner), a teen struggling with depression, anxiety, or finding your sense of self, or maybe you're someone who struggles with grief and loss, I am ready to walk with you through it.
I believe that healing begins once we can be honest with ourselves. Although my approach is warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental, I am also authentic, direct, and honest with my clients. I work with and for you. My job as your therapist is to not just help you to get past your hardships but help you feel prepared to be able to handle future ones.
I use a combination of person-centered, strength-based, CBT, and EMDR treatments depending on the personal treatment plan we create together to reach your goals. You don't need to do hard things alone. I am ready to get started when you are.

My name is Tara Celletti and I am a licensed independent associate clinical social worker. I grew

up in Southern California, where I was exposed to therapy practices at an early age by my

grandmother. In 2021, I followed in my grandmother’s footsteps and received a Masters in

Social Work from University of Southern California. I moved to Washington in 2014 where I now

live with my husband and our three rescue dogs.

My passion is working with clients with a history of trauma on their path to healing. I find

fulfillment in helping client’s tap into their inner resilience while also working on new tools to

aid coping in the future. I utilize techniques from a variety of methods including CBT, DBT, Self-

Compassion, EMDR, and expressive arts. Above all, my focus is to make clients feel safe and

heard during our work together.
