Any recommendations ffor a professional cat groomer PLEASE! I have an adult, spayed long haired cat who loves to lick herself into matt-balls. I've lost control with my efforts to maintain her otherwise beautiful coat. We live in Seattle.

Unfortunately I don't have any personal experience with any groomers in Seattle, however here is a place that has excellent Yelp! reviews, and also seems to specialize in cat grooming, which is usual, and would suggest to me that they are very good at it. https://www.yelp.com/biz/meow-ville-cat-grooming-seattle You might also consider whether Gata might need to be sedated for the grooming. If she has a lot of matts, then it's possible that she will, as they can be quite painful to remove. If this is the case, consider talking to your veterinarian, as sedation can be performed safely in his/her office. Most vets will do a "shave-down" on long-haired cats, although it's likely a professional groomer will do a more artistic job.
