About
Isabel Decian, MA, LMHC, RPT
I'm glad you are here!
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor offering online psychotherapy sessions to clients located in Washington state.
In therapy, I use evidence‑based approaches and creative, interactive strategies to help you manage your anxiety, reduce symptoms, and feel empowered throughout the process. Many people find that this blend makes it easier to understand, remember, and apply the tools they learn in anxiety and OCD treatment.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of gaining valuable experiences and knowledge in various settings such as Intensive Outpatient Programs, Partial Hospitalization Programs, and Outpatient hospitals settings, and private practice for children, adolescents, and adults. I have a deep appreciation for education. As a result, I am committed to enhancing my knowledge through regular participation in trainings and consultations.
I grew up in Brazil and I offer sessions both in English and Portuguese. When I’m not in session, you’ll find me enjoying the simple things: family walks, spending time with friends, creative chaos at the craft table with my kid, and dreaming about our next cruise ship escape. These simple joys help me stay connected, curious, and energized in the work I do with clients.
If my approach resonates with you, I’d be honored to support you. Reach out to schedule a consultation.
