If you have never worked with a counselor before (or even if you have), the first steps can be daunting. Samaritan Center of Puget Sound is here to help—and to make those first steps less intimidating. Our agency has been providing service for nearly 60 years in the greater Seattle area, with an emphasis on professional care and open hearts to your concerns.

As you will see if you go to our Find a Therapist page, your initial choices might include

• the type of counseling you seek—for yourself individually, for a child, or for yourself and a partner or other family members.
• Your insurance provider, to see which of our counselors might be covered by your plan
• Your location, to choose a counselor who has an office that is convenient for you
• Any special therapy requests; this is entirely optional, though some people come with a need or expectation of a particular mode of treatment

We hope to understand your goals and preferences to help you determine whether and how we can be a fit for you in a time of distress and potential growth or healing in your life.
