Accepting New Clients

A mental health counselor in Skagit County offering somatic counseling, EMDR, and trauma-informed care to support you in reclaiming your joy and sense of self.

My Approach

My integrated approach to counseling is guided by somatic counseling, narrative therapy, feminist theory, relational cultural therapy, person-centered counseling, trauma-informed modalities like EMDR, and your unique life experiences. This holistic approach supports understanding how past and current experiences, relationships, stories, and events impact your emotions, somatic feelings, actions, and thoughts today.

Meet A.J. Conley

Before I began on my path as a mental health counselor, I was a first responder for over 13 years. I have extensive experience working with first responders, as well as individuals over the age of 18 from diverse backgrounds on concerns including PTSD, substance use disorder recovery, anger management, anxiety, depression, and attachment wounds. I specialize in working with women navigating life transitions and burnout, and women in the first responder fields.
