“What I know about living is that the pain is never just ours.
Every time I hurt I know the wound is an echo, so I keep listening for the moment the grief becomes a window, when I can see what I couldn’t see before.”
-Andrea Gibson
Bethanne Kinmonth, LMHC
Psychotherapist, Approved Supervisor, & Mountain Enthusiast
Whether the mountains or the human psyche, I’ve always been drawn to exploration. I believe every person’s journey is unique, and therapy can be a way to better understand the terrain we’re navigating. My work is about creating a space where people feel safe to pause, reflect, and find new ways forward.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Washington with a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology. For the past 15 years, I have worked as a psychotherapist in private practice supporting adults through life transitions, trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship complexities. My approach is grounded in the belief that healing happens through connection—both with others and within ourselves.
I specialize in working with adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, identity development, grief work, sexuality, relationship/family issues, sexual and physical abuse, PTSD, body image, and spiritual identity issues.
I have advanced training in body-focused Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (Level 1 & Level 2 certified), mindfulness practices, couples therapy through Emotionally Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method, as well as advanced training in the impact and healing of trauma. I’m deeply committed to journeying alongside my clients with compassion, curiosity, and authenticity, allowing the therapeutic relationship itself to become a catalyst for growth and transformation.
