I believe that it is the relationship that heals. Entering into a therapeutic relationship gives you opportunity to be
seen, to try new things, to explore and change, while doing so in a safe and supportive environment. I love the fact that
in therapy there are "do-overs".
I graduated with my nursing degree from the University of Washington (BSN 1990), obtained my Registered Nurse
license, graduated with a Master of Counseling degree in 2000, and obtained a license as a mental health counselor in
2004. I also earned a 200 hour Yoga Teacher certification to better understand the connection between mind and
body, and I am skilled at using Mindfulness Meditation and body movement to help clients with mood disorders, eating
disorders, and stress reduction. My office is LBGT and Poly friendly, and many of my clients over the years have come
from African American, Hispanic, Asian, Middle East, and European cultures.
If you have never tried counseling before, it can be a daunting task to find a counselor that "fits". Your first 30 minutes
are FREE with no obligation to continue the first session, and this can be done in person or over the phone.

Bernice Imei Hsu, RN, MAC, LMHC, RYT
"Specializing in the treatment of Eating Disorders and Eating Issues, Mood Disorders
improving relationship skills, and helping you create your most satisfying life."
I love working with people. No matter how complex your situation
is, no matter how messy, it is an honor to come alongside an
individual, couple, family, or group and offer myself as a healer, a
compassionate ear, and one who is willing to dive into the most
heartbreaking worlds in order to help you move into your most
satisfying life.
My counseling practice includes working with eating disorders, mood
disorders, relationship issues, couples counseling, transitions, and
brief career counseling. But beyond looking at the specific problems, I
help people listen to their deep needs and desires without editing. By
doing so, I help you identify the path you need to walk and how to find
to courage to walk it. The pace is up to you.
