About Jeffrey
Jeffrey Foster is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who brings 40 years of clinical experience to his work. He focuses on helping people who are wrestling with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship or family tensions. He speaks English and practices in Washington.
He starts from the belief that the person knows their own story best. Sessions are conversational and respectful, with the therapist listening first and asking clear questions to clarify goals. Jeffrey aims to help people notice their strengths and build on what already works for them.
Therapy sessions often include practical tools for day-to-day coping. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques may be used to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills can help people manage intense emotions and reduce reactive patterns.
Jeffrey also uses client-centered and existential ideas to keep sessions grounded in each person’s values and life meaning. For relationship concerns he draws on Imago relationship therapy ideas to improve communication and mutual understanding. He adapts his approach depending on what a person needs in the moment.
People looking for help with parenting stress, anger, career shifts, ADHD challenges, grief, or trauma and abuse can explore these topics in sessions. To begin, prospective clients select Start Therapy, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule times that fit with the therapist’s availability.
