Marline Rostom, MA LMHC - Owner | Provider | Supervisor
Welcome!
My name is Marline and I began Sound Psychotherapy & Counseling Services PLLC with the belief that every person is deserving of health, happiness, and compassionate support. My mission is to offer the opportunity for patients to embark on the journey towards healing, balancing, growing and thriving with the peace of mind of a caring and skilled professional at their side.
I have worked with people from all walks of life in the 19+ years that I have been a clinician. I believe that therapy is an important life choice that people make when things get tough. I believe that this courageous decision must be honored with compassion, empathy, and sincerity. I chose this work because I love to help people and share in their journey towards greater health and happiness. People who come to me have said that they appreciate my sense of humor, my non-judgmental demeanor, and my candidness as a therapist. I believe that it is important for people to feel safe to say anything they need to while in therapy, and thus people can feel free to say what is on their minds and in their hearts and will be met with unconditional, compassionate understanding. As a practice owner, I strive to hire like minded clinicians who will provide quality care to those seeking help.
Approach to Therapy
I work with men, women, and adolescents. I specialize in working with those seeking to heal trauma, manage difficult emotions, engage more effectively in relationships, and change detrimental behaviors. My treatment modality is a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy and developmental psychology: I work with you to identify and change the beliefs, thoughts, and feelings that lead to behaviors that you may want to change or stop in order to live a healthier, happier life. I also help you to identify how these beliefs developed and work towards healing the experiences that cultivated in the beliefs that may be harmful.
I utilize an arsenal of treatment modalities in order to individualize your therapy sessions. I am interested in learning about all the areas of your life that may be affecting you currently. These can include: your family of origin, psychosocial development, emotional processes, thinking patterns, the behaviors and habits that do not serve you, your relationships, your fears and worries, and anything else you would like to share.
Ultimately, I consider myself an eclectic therapist as I tailor interventions depending on my clients' needs at the time. I like the flexibility of being able to meet the client where they are, as I believe this best serves the client in the realization of therapeutic goals. I believe that every person deserves safety, dignity, and peace of mind. I am looking forward to working with people who are seeking to live their best life.

I am here to hold a safe space for you to begin to cultivate love and hope for yourself and to begin to rediscover who you are and who you can be. Everyone needs a place where they can explore all the places in their minds, show up for themselves, and work towards giving themselves a happier and healthier life that feels worth living- this is that place.

Krystal Schultz, MS LMHC - Provider (Mukilteo and Telehealth)
I have been a licensed mental health counselor and also hold a license as a financial advisor for many years; I have a passion for helping people live their lives to the fullest. Life is hard, and I believe everyone can use someone to support them thorough it without judgement. That’s what I am here to do.
Through my experience, I know that to empower ourselves to live the life we want, we also must take a deep dive into our past to help understand how we got to where we are now. As your counselor, I will be alongside you as you heal, expand, and create the fulfilling life you’ve always imagined.

Shoshana Rosenthal, MA LMHC - Provider (Maryville and Telehealth)
Life can be difficult, painful, wonderful, confusing, and more. My goal as a therapist is to provide space in this complicated world for people to feel seen and heard so that they may learn about their difficulties and create positive change. Clients often tell me that I am honest, caring, silly, and “down to Earth”.
Approach to Therapy
I work with children, adolescents, couples, families, and individuals. My personal and professional experiences have led me to encounter a variety of people and settings including: sober housing and treatment, shelter for unhoused people, brief/acute behavioral services, outpatient day services, and intensive in and out-of-home services. Through these experiences, I have come to consider myself a relational therapist. This means that regardless of the issue/s presented, my ultimate goal is to assist people to develop safe, authentic relationships with themselves and others. I have been formally trained in DBT, MST, TF-CBT, and SFBT, and am knowledgeable in theories of attachment and depth psychology. In therapy, I utilize strategies and understandings from these modalities to best suit the person in front of me. Ultimately, I am most interested in helping clients understand how environmental dynamics of past and present have come to impact a person, then learn to shift from unhelpful to more helpful patterns of living.

Jenna Abrams, MSW LICSW - Provider (Telehealth only)
Learning to trust someone is hard, but having to face difficult experiences alone can be even harder. I am here to help you make that journey (feel) easier, and help you grow at the same time. Using a holistic, person-centered approach, I will learn what makes you who you are, and will develop a unique treatment plan tailored to your needs. As much as I will learn about you, I will encourage you to get to know me. It will be a privilege to be part of your life journey and help you overcome obstacles that have been holding you back. Together, we will create a trusting relationship in a safe environment.

Javier Fregoso, MA LMHC - Provider (Telehealth Only ; Spanish Speaking)
It is my belief that people are always in a state of becoming - changing and evolving. Along the way of life, challenges arise to help us learn and grow. I aim to utilize strengths and provide clarity to certain life challenges, past or present, in order for clients to heal and continue on their path of self discoverI
I have over a decade of experience in various clinical and community settings that have helped me grow professionally and personally. I strive to co-create an authentic connection with my clients in order for them to feel at ease, to feel seen, and be able to explore areas in life they want to work on.
Approach to Therapy
Therapy can be a process which will look differently for each person. I lead with curiosity knowing I do not have the answers but hope to provide clients with the awareness to identify them. Through a relational and empowering therapeutic space, my hope is for clients to rediscover their strengths and authentic selves in order to achieve their goals.
I utilize an integrative approach to therapy and always strive to tailor these approaches to best meet the needs of every unique individual. Approaches that I pull from are humanistic, existential, solution focused, cognitive behavioral, internal family systems, and motivational interviewing. I also am open and invite clients to use religion/spirituality as a resource for healing. I also offer Spanish speaking sessions.
