Starting today, choose your best life.
Exclusively Telehealth in Washington and California.
Engaging, collaborative, solution-focused therapy for individuals and couples.
Welcome. Let’s make things easier.
It’s time to journey, to explore, to wonder, to problem solve and move closer to what you need. To learn how to shed stress, to be supported and guided in a nonjudgmental way, in a safe context. To identify and choose really meaningful goals for your own life and way of being that is "you," not someone else's definition of you. To get past current difficulties, to work through the past as well, and to live deeply in intention and outcome. Let's journey!
I'm Dr. Carol Tyler, a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of experience -- serving all of Washington state and California. I work with women and men, individuals, and couples. My practice is inclusive.
Are you wanting help with transition, loss, anxiety or depression? Are you struggling with procrastination, ADHD, and relationships? Are you a typical American who is sleep deprived, stressed, and just wants to find their own great rhythm and chart a comfortable path? Know that I’m here for you.
Convenient Telehealth Appointments
Not local? Not a problem! I connect with individuals and couples online via telehealth, using easy and secure video, and if preferred, phone calls, for Washington and California residents. Wherever you live in the Evergreen or Golden states, here's a very warm welcome to you!
I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to help you learn more about my practice, and to help us decide about fit and working together, or further options you may wish to explore.

. . . and Specialties
-
ADHD
Although we’ve heard that “you to are not your diagnosis,” ADHD is actually never “cured,” per se. And many would argue that, in fact, it’s a strength to have cognitive abilities outside the neurotypical box. The trick is working together on specific skills and behaviors that serve YOU.
-
Anxiety & Stress
Stress and anxiety don’t need to rule your waking and even your sleeping moments. Some people are surprised to finally realize that they’ve been carrying stress around 24/7, for a very long time. Discover how to dismantle and transform fears into manageable action.
-
Depression & Sadness
Depression and sadness are not weakness, nor character flaws. With the stress of the pandemic, depression and anxiety increased 25% globally. I can help you work toward integrating your thoughts, feelings, and behavior to ease emotional pain, and to get back on track.
-
Grief & Bereavement
Loss, grief and bereavement happen because we’re alive. Sometimes these feelings are too much to bear and to manage alone. Sometimes the very loss becomes a stuck way of living — a theme around which our life is organized. I can help you walk through this maze of feelings, as I’ve helped so many others, knowing that there is a gentle way forward.
-
Relationships & Communication
Where do we even start, you might wonder, on working out better relationships, and improving ways of communicating needs and feelings, while also respecting and understanding others. Looking at what isn’t working, and figuring out why, plus also imagineering what you would love to change and add to how you engage with others, will give us just the right start.
-
Trauma, Abuse & PTSD
Whether you’ve recently or perhaps a long time ago experienced trauma, abuse that was violent or even subtle, and serious accidents and illnesses, the result can be lasting distress. Sometime trauma manifests as symptoms collectively called Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome — PTSD. Help is here to safely achieve a path out of pain and fear.
