Accessible & personalized mental health therapy in Seattle.
Our Approach
Our therapists believe that the present is inextricably linked to the past. While the circumstances of the current moment do influence how you feel and deserve attention, we believe that past experiences and relationships play an outsized role in how you respond to the now. If the present is the tip of the iceberg, then the past is the much larger part below the surface.
Understanding the reasons and contexts of why you engage in a particular behavior or feel a certain way is essential for real change and growth.
This approach will not only ease your current distress and shift problematic behavior, but it also affords you the opportunity for more. Our therapists prioritize going deeper than your current symptoms to facilitate increased self-understanding, a cohesive and consistent sense of self, more fulfilling relationships, more emotional capacity, and a greater sense of meaning in your life.
Our providers emphasize depth-oriented, research-based psychotherapies in order to achieve long-lasting results.

Madeline Elledge, LMHC
Therapist
As an existential therapist, I believe in the innate human drive toward one’s own growth. Understanding our lives in the context of meaning and narrative cultivates space and fluidity within our identities as we move beyond static being and into an open exploration of the never-ending process of becoming.
My intent is to walk with you as we find comfort in the discomfort of uncertainty, learn how to hold opposing truths simultaneously, and suspend the objective as we lean into the richness of your unique subjectivity.
I offer individual, couples, and family therapy. I also provide EMDR therapy.

Christa Ellery, LMFT
Therapist
I believe that psychotherapy aims to empower clients with self-knowledge and self-understanding on their path to living authentically.
My training as a marriage and family therapist lends itself to helping clients deconstruct and understand the systems they exist within and examine how power impacts their ability to share and live by their own stories.
I work with individuals and relationships, and have experience working with clients in diverse relationship dynamics, including kink and consensual non-monogamy.

Amanda Seely, MD
Psychiatrist & Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist
I believe medication can be most effective when used thoughtfully and collaboratively—as one part of a larger process of healing and self-understanding. My role is to help you clarify what’s happening, explore whether medication may help, and make informed choices that fit your goals and values.
I provide psychiatric evaluation, ongoing medication management, and therapy-informed support for adults navigating anxiety, depression, perfectionism, and life transitions. My approach integrates biological, psychological, and relational perspectives, aiming not just to ease symptoms but to help you feel more balanced, grounded, and connected to yourself and others.
Amanda Seely, MD
Psychiatrist & Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist
I believe we all have an innate capacity for healing and growth, though life can lead us into patterns of avoidance, self-criticism, or perfectionism that obscure it. My role is to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom and move past what stands in the way. Through practical tools, compassionate support, and insight into the deeper drivers of behavior, I help you rediscover meaning, purpose, and vitality.
I work with people from all backgrounds, with expertise in eating disorders and LGBTQ+ care. Whether through therapy, medication management, or both, I view you as a whole person—within your relationships, community, and environment. My approach integrates biological, psychological, structural, and spiritual perspectives for lasting change.
