Therapists in Belltown, Seattle, WA

My approach to therapy is supportive and empathetic.I believe the most important element of therapy is the genuine connection between the client and therapist. Each client has unique needs and my goal is to meet each client where they are in their process of self awareness and healing. Therefore I utilize a variety of modalities such as CBT, ACT and Mindfulness. I see psychotherapy as a joint collaboration between therapist and client and strive to empower each client in their journey of inner exploration, mental, spiritual and physical healing.

Agape Health Initiatives was created to help people achieve enlighment. An individual, regardless of one's past, present, and future, is deserving of the peace which comes from loving oneself and being able to show love to others. Emotional distress in the form of trauma, emotional disturbance, depression, anxiety, hearing voices or seeing things, negative self talk and distorted thinking steals personal peace and stops an individual from being able to obtain the peace which comes from loving oneself and others. My goal is to provide the tools and foster pathways for my clients to create personal peace and fulfillment.

As you are in the process of looking for a therapist, you may already be half-way through resolving your issues. It is said that client's readiness and willingness to make changes is the strongest indicator of successful therapy outcome. As a therapist, I will accompany you in the journey of actualizing your fullest potential by assisting you to develop internal and external resources such as the sense of freedom, choices, healthy sense of self, responsibility, managing life balance, and strong support systems and relationships.

Is there a part of you that feels like something is missing? Like you’re not in touch with your full self or even your ‘true’ self? Perhaps meaning feels distant and your emotional inner world feels difficult to put words to. When these troubling feelings and thoughts arise, life asks us to slow down and get to the root of the issue. In therapy we will do just that. Whether you are working through a difficult relationship, experiencing paralyzing existential dread, or emotional pain manifesting in your body, you deserve the space to get to know yourself on a deeper level and allow for a much needed deep emotional release.
