The Seattle Clinic was born from a series of questions we asked ourselves over many years: What setting would evoke our best therapeutic presence and sustain our passion over the career-span? What combination of endeavors would constitute our ideal professional life? What work culture would be most conducive to our professional and personal growth and fulfillment? 

From these questions, a vision emerged of a professional community:

• committed as much to providing effective, evidence-based psychological treatments as it is compelled by the uniquely human art of therapy

• tied together as much by professional interests as it is by personal bonds and friendships

• enriched as much by its members' expertise as it is by their desire to be lifelong learners

• as passionate about cutting edge research as it is about ancient wisdom

• defined as much by its common purpose as it is strengthened by its members' independence and autonomy
