Lauren Kindle

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my partner and toddler, teaching and taking yoga classes, hiking with my dog, reading a new book and being out in nature.

Jen Munyer

I deeply value travel. I not only enjoy new places, faces, and foods, but have appreciation for the diverse ways in which humans live and interact. I believe that experiencing diversity is one of the best ways to grow and challenge myself. Living in Florida provides ample opportunities to enjoy nature. I can often be found camping or floating down one of our many crystal clear, spring fed rivers. Finally, when not traveling or out in nature, I’m at home reading, cooking, playing with my daughter, or caring for our big fluffy dog and three Nigerian Dwarf goats.

Outside of work, I live for family time. My wife and I are the proud parents of three grown children and two grandchildren (5 and 11). I do love my "papa days". I am a fifth Generation Irish-American. My upbringing provided for me a recognition of humor and its power of healing. I love a good dad joke!

Julie Cabell

Outside of my professional work, I am passionate about creativity, exploration, and connecting with the people I love. In my spare time, you can usually find me spending quality time with my family, caring for my pet dog, or diving into a good book or movie. As a creative outlet, I love working with my hands—whether I am starting a new crafting project or painting with watercolors. I also have a deep love for traveling and exploring new places, always eager to discover new perspectives and experiences.

Two Chairs offers hybrid care, which allows for a combination of virtual and in-person sessions for clients who are located near one of our clinics and would like the option to connect with their therapist in person. With hybrid care, our goal is to help each Two Chairs client find the right therapist and the right setting for therapy — whether that’s from the comfort of your home or in one of our beautiful clinics, including Seattle.

Research shows that the therapeutic alliance between you and your therapist is the best predictor of successful treatment outcome. Psychologists define the therapeutic alliance as the strength of the therapist and client relationship and how aligned you are on goals. Once you have developed a strong therapeutic alliance with your therapist, studies show that individuals are more productive at work, have more fulfilled relationships, can cope more effectively with daily stressors, and engage in less risky behaviors.

Unfortunately, clients can not book with a specific matching therapist at this time. All of our matching therapists are licensed clinicians trained extensively in matching people to the therapist who’s right for them.
