Sean Conley

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the State of Washington. I have been working in the field of behavioral health for more than 10 years. Much of my experience has been working with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, and co-occurring substance dependence. I also have extensive experience working with individuals with neurodevelopmental differences, and people living with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

For individuals facing LGBTQ+ stressors and issues, I have personal lived experience including navigating gender affirming healthcare.

I believe in a strengths-based approach that is client centered and trauma informed. I will work with you to identify your goals, passions, and natural supports to use them in assisting you in feeling better and maintaining wellness. It is my experience that the best results come when a therapist and client work as a team, focusing on specific goals. It is the therapeutic alliance that yields healing and movement towards accomplishing goals.

It’s been my experience and observation that feeling better is often a matter of learning and practicing new skills and habits, such as setting healthy boundaries; connecting with others; and learning how to soothe yourself when distressed, and turn down that dial of overwhelm when needed.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care. A major benefit is flexibility – clients can choose the format that fits their schedule and comfort level, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to integrate therapy into daily life. Licensed professionals provide care through these formats, and clients have the option to change therapists if they prefer a different fit. For many people, the combination of evidence-based support and convenient access makes online therapy a practical option on their path to better mental health.
