Let's Connect (206) 385-5945

You want closeness, honesty, and real connection, yet when it’s time to speak or let yourself be fully seen, something tightens and you hold back. You’re capable, reflective, and often the steady one for others, but old experiences still shape what you say, how carefully you say it, and what you leave unsaid. You may struggle to answer the simple question, “How are you, really?” taking care of others while your own needs stay unspoken. Over time, this can leave you feeling stuck or numb, wanting more depth, expression, and aliveness. In therapy, we slow these moments down so you can speak more freely and live more honestly.

I bring a deep presence and work at your pace, meeting you where you are. In our sessions, there’s space to slow down and notice what’s really happening within yourself and in the space between us. You can expect a steady, attentive, and compassionate presence where you are able to explore, express, and make sense of what you truly feel.

I use psychoanalytic, attachment-based, and existential approaches to explore how your past experiences shape your inner world and relationships today. Therapy provides a space to understand these patterns, deepen self-expression, and strengthen connection. If this resonates, I invite you to schedule a 15-minute consultation.
