Therapist in Olympia, Washington Scarlett Ekeroma, Therapist

Faiiletasi Ekeroma, LMFT, helps adults across Washington create meaningful change by offering a therapeutic space grounded in cultural humility, emotional safety, and practical tools for growth. She specializes in working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and midlife transitions—common yet deeply personal challenges that often require compassionate support paired with evidence-based care. Faiiletasi works with clients to explore the emotional patterns and life experiences that impact their present, empowering them to build resilience, deepen self-awareness, and cultivate a sense of direction. With a strong emphasis on culture and diversity, Faiiletasi is especially passionate about helping individuals explore identity-related concerns, intergenerational dynamics, and experiences of marginalization. She understands the profound impact that cultural values, family expectations, and systemic challenges can have on mental health. Drawing from her Sāmoan heritage and extensive experience as a Marriage and Family Therapist, she offers a culturally attuned, strengths-based approach to healing—supporting clients as they define their voice, restore emotional balance, and realign with what matters most. Faiiletasi’s clinical expertise includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, parenting support, and family therapy. She often works with military and veteran communities, as well as high-functioning individuals who may struggle with perfectionism, relational stress, or the emotional toll of high performance. Her approach is warm yet direct, helping clients build practical coping strategies while deepening their capacity for self-reflection and emotional connection. When she’s not in session, Faiiletasi enjoys painting, exploring nature, playing sports, and engaging in creative practices that support holistic well-being.
