Dean Nakanishi
Licensed Professional Counselor
About
I believe that we are created for wholeness: mind, body, and spirit. This world, circumstances, and we cause fractures and injury to all three of those elements of our being. When we are rightly related to our Creator, to others, and to ourselves then we can operate in the fullness of life that we are meant to experience. I will listen intently as you reflect upon your story, partner with you in a dialogue, explore dreams and hopes for the future, and look for practical steps to get there. Whether you are in the middle of a faith or existential crisis, struggling with anxiety or a habit, looking to improve relationships, or considering a course adjustment in life, I look forward to meeting with you along the journey.
I am a husband, a father of three, and a teacher for over 20+ years in the area. Seattle sports, pickleball, golf, swimming, hiking, family game night, and coffee houses are a few of the places you might find me.
