Xelian Hunt, LMHCA
Pronouns: they/them
On my own mental health and learning journey, I discovered the significance of allowing space for reflection of how we came to the present moment and what has shaped us. My underlying philosophy is anti-oppressive and inclusive/intersectional Feminist. To me, this means that I consider societal and systemic structures and the impacts they have on those within them, and how we can navigate this while building meaningful lives.
I have supported clients through relationship distress, life transitions, career challenges, low self-esteem, and internalized oppression. I have experience working with clients who have anxiety/depression, insecure attachments, complex trauma, neurodivergence, intersectional identities, and more. As a life-long learner, I seek out opportunities to gain more experience, remain informed, and continually develop my skills and approaches.
My approach...
I value creating a space where you can be authentic and bring your present challenges, whether personal, relational, or societal, to counseling. I acknowledge that life can be messy, may feel unmanageable, and that external layers often add to this struggle. I will work with you to untangle these factors, finding ways to manage, resolve, and/or navigate life, maximizing your resilience and wellbeing.
I center my counseling practice around developing effective communication, forming fulfilling relationships, promoting self-discovery and awareness, and empowering you to meet or move closer to your goals. I integrate different approaches depending on your needs, including but not limited to: Attachment Theory, DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), and ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy).
Professional training & memberships...
I graduated with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University in March of 2025. Prior to this, I obtained a Bachelor of Applied Science in Youth Development from Highline College. I worked in the Intercultural Center at the college as a Peer Facilitator where I created educational programs to facilitate discussion of social awareness and advocacy during the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate (LMHCA) in Washington State, credential #MC61686281. I am also a member of the American Counseling Association (ACA), and the Washington State Mental Health Counselors Association (WMHCA).
