Elisa Fu, MSW

Psychotherapist
WA
Hiya! My name is Elisa Fu, and I am an LICSW in the state of Washington. I earned my Master's in Social Work from Eastern Washington University. I use a combined approach to therapy that is based on you and what you need, drawing from my 10+ years of experience with motivational interviewing, EMDR, DBT, and a trauma-informed lens. My approach I provide a refreshing pace tailored to your needs and my psychoeducation. I like to focus the first few sessions on building a foundation of trust, understanding, and information, while assessing your current ability to cope with the world. Then we can focus on reinforcing and expanding that to assist in your journey of change. I adhere to the 8-step approach of EMDR for security and continuity. I interweave DBT, narrative structures, and CBT so you can get all the comfort and progress necessary to minimize the stress in your world. My focus Clients tend to seek me out when they are looking for someone with experience in healing trauma wounds, finding who they are in the world, and those on the cusp of change. I have experience working with clients with diagnoses like depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, and borderline personality disorder. My communication style I have been told that I create a soothing and supportive environment but also share in the excitement of beginnings and change. Younger clients have described me as their weird friend who knows a lot about almost everything. Clients older than me have described me as refreshing, reassuring, and offering a new perspective. My journey to mental healthcare I have always wanted to help people. I can do this best during one-on-one interactions, and telehealth allows me to help more people-especially folks who are unable to seek in-person support. My goals for you Goal setting is fluid and ever-changing. Typically, clients come to me with a goal in mind-and it's 100% right if that goal changes.
