Breda Waite (pronounced: Bree-Duh) began working as an integrated mental health therapist (IMHT) at Sea Mar Tacoma Cushman in June 2019. Before practicing at Sea Mar, she completed her undergraduate work in Psychology at Washington State University. She then volunteered overseas in Ireland at a residential drug rehabilitation center for women for six months. After returning to the USA, she completed her Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology. She worked for Navos as a residential counselor in the children's long-term inpatient program in Burien, WA.

As an Integrated Mental Health Therapist, her job is to help clients connect their medical care with their mental health care, smoothing the obstacles that clients face in pursuit of holistic health. She believes in client-centered, solution based therapy. Breda focuses on empowering clients with knowledge and options in order to encourage their own agency in making decisions regarding their care. She provides screening, brief therapy, and referrals to behavioral health from within the community medical clinic at Tacoma Cushman.

Aside from time spent overseas, Breda has lived in the Pacific Northwest her whole life and is an avid rain lover. In her spare time, Breda follows her passion to create by making art, telling stories, enjoying film, TV, pop culture, and taking photos of nature and architecture.
