Individual Therapy in Seattle & Across Washington
I’ve worked in mental health for more than 20 years, across private practice, medical settings, and community mental health. Over that time, I’ve learned what to listen for, what questions tend to matter, and how to help people make sense of what isn’t working.
My work has included psychotherapy, clinical assessment, collaboration with medical teams, and evaluating mental health concerns related to work functioning, including assessment and documentation for FMLA and medical leave.

Approach
Therapy works best when it is tailored to the person. These are some of the approaches that may be integrated into our work together.
About
Jason Lavalle, LICSW
I have worked in mental health and human services since 2005 and have been in private practice since 2015.
Before private practice, I worked in community mental health throughout Seattle and later with University of Washington Medicine providing behavioral health assessment and counseling. Those experiences continue to shape how I work today and reinforced something I have found to be consistently true: people rarely fit neatly into categories, and therapy works best when it is adapted to the individual.
Many people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and carrying more than others realize. They are often managing anxiety, burnout, self criticism, relationship strain, uncertainty, or a sense that the way they have been functioning is no longer sustainable.
My approach is practical, collaborative, and tailored to the person rather than following a rigid formula. My goal is not to provide quick answers or one size fits all solutions, but to help people better understand themselves and create meaningful, workable change.
