Mark Adams, MA, LMHC, is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Poulsbo, Washington. He has worked with children, adolescents, and adults in various community mental health settings since 1994. Mark has extensive experience working with issues of domestic disputes and high conflict. He has worked with adults to repair the damage and undo legacies of harmful behavior. Within the context of that work, Mark developed and co-facilitated a unique group for men dealing with issues of both abusive behavior and substance abuse.
Mark developed and implemented a specialized group for fathers that addressed the impact of adult domestic violence on children, as well as worked with survivors of violence to address trauma and to help them reclaim both autonomy and agency. At the Poulsbo office, Mark's primary approach is to provide a cognitive-behavioral foundation.
From that foundation, Mark incorporates mindfulness-based interventions, self-compassion work, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) – to fit the needs of each client. Mark is accepting new clients at the Bainbridge office. Please fill out contact form on website to schedule first-time appointment.
