I am a licensed clinical social worker. I approach therapy as a collaborative process where we explore your personal story, identity, and relationships, with a focus on healing, empowerment, and social justice. My work is grounded in narrative and relational therapies, and I strive to create a safe, affirming space for individuals, especially those from marginalized communities to challenge limiting beliefs and reconnect with their values and purpose. My work with clients is rooted in narrative therapy, where we explore the stories, you talk about yourself and how those stories shape your identity, relationships, and choices.

The most important relationship you will ever have is the one with yourself. Once you are strong and stable in that relationship, then you can be strong and stable in other relationships.

Welcome—I’m glad you’re here. I work with individuals and parents navigating day-to-day challenges, relationship stress, and the demands of raising kids, including difficulties at home and in school. Parenting, work, and daily life can leave little space to hear yourself or nurture what matters most. In therapy, we slow down, explore the patterns shaping your relationships, understand your needs, and untangle what no longer serves you—creating space for a more grounded, connected, and intentional way of living.

I am a Certified Jungian Analyst and a member of the Pacific NW Society of Jungian Analysts (pnsja.org). I specialize in working with dreams, creativity, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Many of my clients are in mid-life and struggling with relationships, career, aging, illness, and loss. I have experience working with sexual minority clients. My style is interactive and collaborative, and I believe that therapy should provide a safe and supportive environment, with no thought, feeling, or imagining that cannot be shared. My task as therapist is to accompany you on a unique journey to your authentic self.

I’m guided by my belief in the eternal worth and inherent wisdom of each person. Each individual is the expert of their own experience, and, within each of us, lies an immense power for self-healing. My therapeutic style can be described as warm, collaborative, and experiential. I view my role in this process as a facilitator, working alongside individuals as they reflect upon their experiences, broaden their awareness, and investigate ongoing behavioral patterns. Together, we may begin to freely explore prevailing paradigms and construct a more personalized path forward.

My ideal client is seeking healing, self-awareness, and tools. My clients need support for mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, navigating systems of oppression, coming to terms with their gender, ethical non-monogamy and/or kink. Many of my clients seek me out to have a clinician with a shared identity, a systems based framework and a sex-positive attitude.

Overwhelmed by these turbulent times? Feeling stuck in relationships, jobs, or entrenched beliefs about yourself that may not be entirely accurate? Unhealthy thoughts, feelings, behaviors and attachments can create patterns that lead to anxiety, depression, addiction and more. The definition of insanity is “doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.” If you want to break the cycle, therapy can be a powerful tool in helping you identify problem areas and begin your personal transformation. The process begins with having someone who will listen, understand your needs, uncover stressors and seek solutions.

You may be highly self-critical, finding yourself stuck in patterns of people-pleasing or perfectionism. Growing up, you may have felt pressured to live up to the expectations of family, friends, and society. Your emotions may have been labeled “too much,” causing you to suppress your sensitivity. How would it feel to know that you don’t have to be perfect or have all the answers? How would it feel to know that in this moment, you are exactly who you are meant to be?

Adjusting to life after a brain injury or coping with a complex medical diagnosis can feel overwhelming and isolating. You may struggle with uncertainty, frustration, or even depression as you navigate these changes. These experiences often bring a mix of grief for what has changed and anxiety about what lies ahead.

Together, we can create a safe, supportive space to explore these challenges, helping you rediscover resilience, build coping skills, and reclaim a sense of purpose and fulfillment in your life.

People's stories are one of the most valuable things we have in life. If you want to have a meaningful relationship with someone, you need to be able to understand your own story. Helping individuals to develop and enhance their personal stories is at the crux of my work as a therapist. We all have public and private lives, and I believe the power of developing the stories behind these separate selves is how people vividly change their lives.
