Therapists in Seattle, WA

I am currently accepting new clients in my practice. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress and overwhelm, or are wishing to grow and develop in ways that will help you meet your goals, I'm here to help. As a therapist, it is a privilege to walk these journeys of healing and self-discovery with my clients. My clients find my approach to be warm and supportive, while also finding that I challenge their thinking and behavior in ways that help them see and initiate the change they desire. I work with teens, adults, and romantic partnerships, and offer a free 20 minute phone consultation to all prospective client.

When the unwanted or unexpected happens, it is as if the whole world has imploded. If left untended, grief can show up in ways that don't serve us. We can lose ourselves in alcohol, sleep, work--anything to numb the pain. Some of us lash out or withdraw from the people and things that give our lives meaning (e.g., family, friends, community). It doesn't have to be this way! I specialize in helping people whose lives have been affected by illness or death, separation or divorce, and mid-life issues (parenting struggles, caring for aging parents, etc.).

Perhaps you feel alienated, empty, or disconnected. Maybe you struggle to trust yourself and others. It might be difficult to hold your boundaries and advocate for yourself. Unaddressed pains can show up as anxiety, depression, trauma, harmful relationships, self-criticism, and addictions - also manifesting on physical and spiritual levels. You might feel stuck and overwhelmed on how to move forward. Therapy is a place where you can build a deeper understanding of yourself, what you’re experiencing, where that comes from, and what that means to you. It takes a lot of courage to (re)connect with yourself and share your story.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who has been working and training in the field for 11 years. I view psychotherapy as a collaborative process and tailor treatment to your specific goals. In doing so, I draw on an integrative theoretical approach that includes elements of contemporary psychodynamic and attachment theory, as well as cognitive behavioral therapy. I use these methodologies to treat adolescents and adults who are presenting with a range of conditions, including mood and anxiety disorders, relationship issues, identity concerns, loss and grief, and life transitions.

Are you creative? In transition? Depressed? Different? Parenting? Re-discovering YOU? Are you wanting to make changes in your life or to heal from old wounds? Do you want to develop self-compassion? Do you want to learn how to be present for your life, to learn mindfulness to help you through the tough times? If so, let’s see if we can create a compassionate, interactive and authentic therapeutic relationship to work collaboratively towards healing. In therapy, I can help you identify your goals, look at what is and isn't working for you, explore your stories, emotions, and experiences (past and present), develop new skills, and embrace your learning styles and talents. I also provide consultation and supervision to therapists.

I see healing as the process of understanding the patterns that influence our perception of, and how we act within, the world that surrounds us. For many, these patterns might have been protective, at one point in time, though might not be serving our needs in the present. Therapy offers a space to feel seen, heard, and accepted. I believe that the individual is the expert on their life, and I trust their experience. I seek to follow the client while noticing my own curiosity that I have cultivated through schooling and experience working in the field of psychology.

I am currently fuIl and I am not accepting new clients. I join with clients in a safe, non-judgmental and collaborative way. We will work together to explore, understand and resolve the challenges related to the counseling goals they have identified. My treatment approach is both creative and flexible. I allow clients to direct each session with validating and encouraging support from me throughout the process. While using various treatment models such as cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to cater to the needs of each client, I compliment each model with a strengths-based approach.

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.

My approach, inspired by Jungian psychology, uses your dreams as an ally in self-discovery. Our work goes beyond symptom management, into the deep inner territory of self-knowledge and self-actualization. Dreams give you access to the wisdom beneath your waking conscious awareness and enable healing and self-discovery at the depth of the soul. We work together to discover your unique dream symbols which facilitate healing and wholeness, tapping into forgotten capacities and reconnecting with life-giving aspects of your personality and creativity.

Do you ever feel a gap between yourself and the world? Do you long to feel connected to yourself and others? What we feel and/or have lived through can disconnect us from each other and the world around us. I offer a trauma-informed, creative, and unstructured approach to reconnect with your core self and innate ability to thrive. I believe we can find a sense of ease through creative exploration into how the body and mind carry our past experiences, self-beliefs, and internalized narratives. I work best with older teens and adults, existentialists, anti-capitalists, artists, and witch-y folk.

With a broad range of education and experience to draw from, I am equipped to establish meaningful and productive relationships with clients from all walks of life.

It can be eye-opening; you will learn a great deal about yourself and it can be fun. I offer individual therapy for issues regarding relationships and anger.

I also work with couples in their second marriage as they navigate the challenges of a blended family and with married couples contemplating divorce or couples who would like support as they decouple.

At its core, I believe therapy to be about creating space for change. People come to therapy for a variety of reasons—seeking support and healing, desiring change, looking for relief from pain. With a relational and trauma-informed lens, we’ll look at how you landed here, in an effort to find new ways of being that may be kinder to yourself and more congruent with a whole and healthy life. I work with teens, adults, and couples on issues of trauma, anxiety, grief, relationships, life transitions, and identity formation. I have focused much of my work supporting women recovering from trauma.
