Duvall, WA Local Support & Community Resources

At Larch Counseling, Saloumeh Torabi, a skilled counselor with an MA and LMHC, provides support to hurting adolescents, overwhelmed parents, disconnected couples, and individuals in need of hope. She understands the pervasive feelings of frustration, pain, and sadness that can cloud lives, and she is dedicated to helping clients recognize that life can be lived with connection and joy, free from constant conflict. Saloumeh believes that people have a relationship with their problems rather than being defined by them. This perspective allows her to collaboratively explore ways to diminish the impact of these challenges while building on the individual strengths of her clients. Through her compassionate approach, she guides clients towards realizing a healthier way of living and fosters an environment where transformation can take place.

Danielle Baird, MSW, LICSW, is a dedicated clinical social worker and therapist at Whole Valley Therapy, specializing in providing support for those who find themselves differing from societal norms. She recognizes that individuals who are intellectually inclined, highly sensitive, or intensely gifted often navigate a world where they feel out of sync with their peers. These individuals may experience profound insights and intense emotional currents, yet find themselves misinterpreted or misunderstood by those who admire their successes while overlooking their sensitivities. Whether one has always felt this disconnection or is currently undergoing a significant life transition, Danielle is committed to assisting them in overcoming suffering and fostering a sense of connection with both themselves and others. Understanding that traditional therapeutic approaches may not adequately meet the unique needs of outliers—due to identity or experience—Danielle offers a distinct therapeutic experience aimed at exploring pathways to relief and progress toward personal goals. Those seeking a compassionate and insightful therapist to navigate their unique challenges are encouraged to consider the supportive services available through Whole Valley Therapy.
