I work with youth, age 13+, and adults across the lifespan. I'm passionate about LGBTQIA+ and gender affirming mental health therapy, I support folks in navigating and exploring relationship to self and others (sex and body positive, ethical non-monogamy and poly affirming), anxiety, depression, trauma, family of origin, disability, chronic-illness, grief, substance use, life transitions and challenges. I have an intersectional, anti-oppressive approach to therapy— highlighting how our relationship to ourselves, community, environment, and historical legacies impact and affect each other.

Therapy can be a difficult but worthwhile endeavor. I believe healing is a life-long journey, it is not linear, nor does it happen in isolation. I honor your trust by providing a space where you can feel safe, supported, and most of all be vulnerable. A space that is free of judgement and of unsolicited advice. I provide a person-centered therapeutic approach that includes psychoeducation, EMDR, mindfulness, Buddhist Psychology, Somatic, and Ego State techniques, all rooted in a trauma informed and holistic perspective.

*Currently accepting new patients* Hi, there! I'm Ian. If you are feeling down, anxious, or stuck or are struggling in your relationships, I would like to help. I believe that meaningful personal connection—feeling understood, accepted, & loved—is at the heart of well-being, so my desire is to provide a genuine, warm, & safe presence in which my clients feel comfortable sharing their stories & exploring how their past has shaped them & their experience of the present. Though I use a psychodynamic approach, I tailor my approach to meet my clients' needs, integrating techniques from various approaches like CBT, gestalt, & mindfulness.

I have experience and training helping individuals through eating disorders, trauma & PTSD, depression, and anxiety, as well as experience working with a wide range of psychological concerns, including self-esteem issues, self-harm behaviors, body dysmorphia, perfectionism, and life transitions.

Now accepting new clients! It is an honor and a privilege to journey alongside you as we work towards understanding the barriers that are preventing you from meeting your goals. I work to create an authentically safe space where you can explore life's obstacles that are preventing you from meeting your goals. I am here to support you as you journey towards living the life you desire to live.

Sometimes we struggle to make meaning where life has thrown us a curveball: a death, a divorce, coming out, or even a pandemic. It’s overwhelming trying to bring order to chaos, at times having to impossibly reconcile competing truths. “It gets better” fails to appreciate the acute pain of the moment, only going so far in moving the needle towards hope. In an age where humans are increasingly polarized, buoyed by deeply held beliefs, there remains a need for something more than personal happiness alone. As a relational Therapist, I help clients find sustainable wellness; prioritizing relationship with self and others over ideology.

I work with children, teens and parents who are struggling with big emotions, difficult behaviors, and power struggles that leave everyone feeling disconnected and unheard. As a parent, I understand that at the root of things, nothing compares to the love you have for your child. Seeing them struggle can be heartbreaking. Even though nobody knows your child the way you do, it's oftentimes hard to understand what's underneath their emotional outbursts, worries and fears. I support families in decoding their kid's behaviors, repairing emotional connection, and build on natural strengths to make lasting changes.

I provide psychotherapy and counseling services to adults, adolescents, and couples. In the framework of authentic therapeutic dialogue and connection, I honor the strengths and uniqueness of each client in the context of their life experience, and work to support them in creating the change they seek. My approach is client centered and flexible to best meet the needs of each client and their particular situation while being largely informed by an integration of Gestalt and mindfulness, as well as humanistic and attachment perspectives.

Hello. For the past 30 years, I have had the privilege of providing a safe, compassionate, and healing environment for my clients in the Seattle and Edmonds communities. I'm dedicated to helping clients develop a set of tools, gain confidence in emotional regulation, process & heal from the past, improve relationships with self and others, establish self care, feel better, reduce symptoms, and improve their quality of life. It is my honor to work in collaboration with my clients as they work towards their goals and get back into the driver's seat of their life.

We all crave connection, peace, a sense of worth and belonging and we all go through periods of struggling to find wholeness. I see therapy as a partnership where I work to support you on your particular path towards healing, wholeness and thriving in your relationships. I believe my most important task is creating safety within the therapeutic encounter so that my clients have a place where they can vulnerability heal.

Take your next step. Experience what Counseling and Hypnotherapy can do for you. Life often demands more than we are able to handle on our own. Although we do our best, we may reach a point where we feel emotionally overwhelmed, spiritually adrift; stuck in the past, afraid of the future; unable to resolve our issues or move forward in life. If this sounds familiar, recognizing this is the first step. Reaching out for help starts your journey toward healing and creating the life you desire.

I enjoy growth-oriented work with couples or individuals: setting goals that challenge and move us forward towards a less conflicted life and a greater understanding. I use a variety systemic therapeutic models dedicated toward solutions and the restoration of hopefulness. A few of these are Solution Focused therapy: an empowering look at what's possible for the future and what's worked in the past, Bowen therapy working on a person's strengths as an independent being and an eclectic blend of other styles based on what the client needs, wants and will benefit from.

Is there something or someone weighing you down and zapping your energy? Have you tried to resolve it, yet it only gets worse? Does it make it hard to see a path foreword? Many of my clients come to me with this dilemma. I care deeply about my clients and will work hard for you to reach your goals. I am passionate about helping you to feel heard, know your own strengths and get you moving foreword. If this sounds good, call me. Let's talk . . .

I am here to support and encourage you as you journey through your days, facing the joys and trials that come your way. This is sacred ground, and it is both an honor and a privilege to be allowed into the deep, private areas of your life.You will find that this is not something I take lightly but, rather, with humility and deep respect for your courage and willingness to be vulnerable. My desire is to sit with those who are hurting and to walk alongside those who are on a journey towards healing, wholeness, or personal growth.

There are many barriers to creating meaningful change in our lives. It can feel difficult and overwhelming to identify what keeps us stuck. We may find it challenging to acknowledge our own limitations, accept our emotions, and build on our strengths. My goal is to join you in exploring your values and creating action steps towards a more fulfilling life.
