Eileen Putter has been a Washington State Licensed Mental Health Counselor for over 25 years. She has worked as a Hospice Bereavement Counselor & Coordinator for 13 years, where she counseled adults, adolescents, and families, as they worked through their grief.
Eileen believes in the importance of...
-
Experiencing one's grief through the outward expression of one's feelings & thoughts.
-
Going through the grief process so that one does not live with unresolved grief.
-
Identifying and utilizing one's strengths & resources in coping with the loss of a loved one.
-
Allowing each individual to grieve in his or her own unique way and his or her own time.
-
Always instilling hope in a bereaved person's view of his or her new world.
-
Professional support & guidance through the grief process after the death of a loved one.
-
Short-term counseling where the counselor serves as a guide & resource as one works towards healing.

Eileen sees clients in their own homes in the Bellevue or Seattle areas, or in her Bellevue office.
She accepts fees for service and will use a sliding fee scale, if needed.
Loss and grief are a part of every person's life experience at one time or another. Few are prepared to deal with the death of a loved one.
My goal, as a bereavement counselor, is to offer a therapeutic
environment where the grieving client is able to openly express and reflect about their personal experience with loss.
I believe that each client has their own answers, therefore,
I like to think of myself as a caring facilitator who helps guide individuals through their own unique grief process as they work toward healing.
