About Us
My name is Destiny Rendon (she/they) and I am the owner of Enchanted Forest Counseling and Therapy, PLLC.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (#LH61161616) based in Olympia, Washington. I became a counselor because of my own healing journey and a desire to help others who walk this path as I recognized throughout my own therapy how important it is to have a place where we can have open-minded, unbiased, and non-judgmental support from a professional who cares about your growth.
My therapeutic style is an integrative, holistic approach and uses a variety of therapeutic styles and techniques that are client-centered, growth and process oriented, and strength-based. My practice is informed through an anti-oppression framework, feminist, and social justice lens. I also identify as a member of the LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent communities, believe Black Lives Matter, and provide affirming care. In my free time I enjoy being in nature, live music, cooking, mycology, traveling, and hanging out in my hammock reading a good book.
“My interests include music, science, justice, animals, shapes, feelings.”
