As a veteran, he knows what it is like to try and access services through the VA, as well as the barriers and judgement that can vets face in the community. That is why he has sought to serve his brothers and sister who have service, and give them the best support that he knows how, and making sure that they don’t feel that they need to explain anything. Paul’s approach to counseling begins with meeting the client where they are at. At that point, he works with the client to provide an agreed upon course of action to get the veteran to where they want to be and have them define their success. This course of action may include employing EMDR, CBT, Solution Focused Counseling, or a more prescribed, curriculum based approach. In-Person and Telehealth (after meeting in-person) appointments available. Specialties:

Robert Bates 908 10th Ave SW, Quincy, WA 98848 |
|
MA, LMHC, MHP | I bring a diverse skill set of life and counseling experience. I grew up with a tumultuous household in a small community. I joined the military at a young age and have lived and worked throughout the world. I have had my own family, raising children weathering many successes and failures in the process. I continue to experience counseling as a client working with the emotions of my past and present to improve my future. My personal experience in therapy enhances my great respect for my clients' vulnerability in our sessions. I am a fellow traveler in life, as you learn and grow so do I. I have returned to a quiet rural community because I love the pace, the people, and watching the cycle of life in the fields that grow around me. My daily life is filled with my amazing wife, my elderly dog, and villainous kitten in a farmhouse from the 50’s about a mile out of a small town located centrally in Washington. I am close enough to experience the amazing delights of the city; far enough to be separated from the stress and anxiety urban life brings for me. My hobbies include the outdoors, learning, great food, and time with friends. When not working with clients I spend most of my life dreaming of the next great adventure to experience. I look forward to our journey together and am excited to help you work through whatever comes next for you in this amazingly complicated thing we call life. |

Dennis Pollack, Ph.D. 301 W Indiana, Suite C, Spokane, WA 99205 |
Licensed Psychologist | I was born in 1943 in the highly industrialized city of East Chicago, Ind. My father was a steel worker for forty-three years and my mother was a librarian for many years. My father was the quiet man who never missed any of my baseball games unless he was working. My mother taught me not to judge unless you walk in the other person’s shoes. My three year older brother, Chuck, was a heart surgeon until he retired. I graduated from Roosevelt High School in 1961 and went on to obtain a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of San Francisco. My first clinical experience was working for the Salvation Army. My wife and I married in 1966. I completed a Master of Science Degree in clinical psychology from San Jose State University. My work/study experience gave me the opportunity to work at the Menlo Park Veterans Administration Hospital. It was a unique program that taught veterans transferable skills for the real world while at the time giving them the opportunity to receive counseling services. I then completed my Ph. D. in clinical psychology at Michigan State University. After completing my course work I completed my internship at Napa State Hospital. While finishing my doctoral research at Illinois State University. I was coordinator of the master’s level clinical training for two years. I came to Spokane in 1975 to teach at Gonzaga University. In 1977 I went into private practice performing forensic evaluations, Social Security Disability evaluations and treating clients. I was recruited by Tom Schumacher to participate in the PTSD program and have been doing it for many years. The work has been very satisfying and never dull. You have to feel good when one of your seventy-year old veteran clients was just accepted into a Ph. D. program in Australia. |

Jody Stewart, M.A., LMHC 820 Pacific Ave, Suite 201, Bremerton, WA 98337 |
|
MA, LMHC, CBT, DBT, CPT MA in Psychology, with an emphasis in Marriage Family Therapy |
Jody has worked closely with victims of diverse cultures suffering from the effects of trauma and abuse since 2002. Before getting her master’s degree, she was a Victim Advocate employed in community services working with victims of sexual assault/abuse, domestic violence, and military sexual trauma. She was intimately involved with her clients from hospital emergency rooms, through the judicial system, and with active-duty & veterans from the military. It is the strength of these survivors that moved her to become a Licensed Mental Health Counselor to help victims integrate the trauma imposed upon them into healthy daily functioning. At the present she works solely with active duty and veterans of military service suffering with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, Acute Stress Disorder, Readjustment Issues, Anxiety and Depressive disorders.
Jody’s therapeutic approach is Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) combined with Written Exposure Therapy (WET) and Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT). Therapy is based on modifying cognitions, assumptions, beliefs, and behaviors with the aim of controlling disturbing emotions caused by traumatic events. The objective of therapy is to lessen severity of symptoms, improve self-focus, decrease emotional reactivity, and to learn new skills to modify dysfunctional patterns in the client’s life. A client’s trauma experiences deserve respect--her training and skills are combined with the client’s life experiences, skills and various ways of coping to create healing. |
