Founded by a trio of Seattle psychotherapists,The Legacy Center offers a broad range of services and a unique treatment philosophy to meet the needs of a diverse clientele. The Center’s approach to therapy is distinctive in four ways:
1. Innovative, full-spectrum services
The Legacy Center offers one of the most comprehensive continuums of service in the region, including individual, couple, and group psychotherapy; 3, 4 and 5-day intensive workshops; 60-day outpatient treatment for sexual addiction; referral psychiatric services; and a national speakers series.
2. Compassionate, shame-free treatment
It’s important that clients feel safe, respected, and non-judged. In particular, recovering addicts are not seen as bad people who need to become good, but rather wounded people who need to become well.
3. Getting to the roots
Addressing surface behaviors alone produces short-term relief at the expense of long-term change. It’s essential to help the client identify the root causes that created the behaviors. This involves exploring and reducing carried pain from the past.
4. Co-morbidity/dual diagnosis disorders
The Legacy clinical team is experienced in working with clients who have been diagnosed with both an addiction and one or more mental health issues, such as depression, anxiety, or Bi-Polar Disorder.
