Empowering Neurodiverse Communities Through Therapeutic Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) in WA State
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and life transitions, including identity exploration, relationship changes, burnout, grief, and periods of feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
These experiences often overlap, especially for LGBTQIA+ individuals who may be navigating coming out, family dynamics, workplace stress, or ongoing minority stress.
I create space to unpack what you’re carrying, build insight, and develop greater self-compassion without rushing or minimizing the complexity of your experience.
Before the game begins character creation is crucial. We begin by sussing out who you want to play. Are you a Wizard, a smart problem solver using magic? Or a Barbarian, just wanting to smash stuff? Possibly some other creature?
Once characters are created and a world is built we play!
Each therapeutic Dungeons and Dragons session is 2 hours. We begin the 2 hours with catching up on life happenings. We play D&D for 90 minutes and end by chatting about the game.
Creating Safe Spaces for Healing
Spratt Therapeutic D&D Group Counseling is a welcoming, affirming therapy practice centered on creating a safe space where you can be fully yourself without apology, explanation, or pressure to “get it right.” I primarily work with LGBTQIA+ adults but everyone is welcome.
I understand how navigating identity, relationships, and mental health in a world that isn’t always affirming can take a real toll. Therapeutic D&D is collaborative, respectful, and grounded in the belief that you deserve care that honors your autonomy, values your lived experience, and meets you where you are.
My approach is rooted in Person-Centered Counseling, which means I trust that you already carry the capacity for growth and change. I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship based on empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard. My role is to listen deeply, reflect honestly, and support you as you explore what matters most to you. Therapy isn’t about fixing who you are it’s about understanding yourself more clearly and making choices that feel aligned and self-directed.
