Waitlist for new clients
Now offering walk and talk sessions! I am passionate about working with adult individuals who feel stuck or disconnected with life. I enjoy working with people to feel more balance, self-acceptance, and build agency in their own lives. My clients might have had traumatic experiences in their lives, be struggling with anxiety or depression, or live with bipolar disorder. My hope is to provide you an opportunity for growth through connecting with yourself and your emotions, building skills to identify and manage symptoms, learning how to strengthen your relationships, and to feel that you are living an authentic and intentional life.
My style is collaborative, authentic, and personal. I practice from a person-centered approach and when appropriate pull from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Feminist Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy. While I may draw from different therapeutic modalities in our work, I believe you are the expert of your own life and I take a role of support.
When I am not working with clients I do the typical Pacific Northwest hobbies such as hiking, camping, enjoying a hot mug of coffee, and tending to my garden or houseplants. I love to get comfy with a good Sci-Fi or fantasy book, listen to podcasts, or learn a new board game. Reach out to schedule a free 20 minute consultation!
