Self Esteem Therapists in Broadview, Seattle, WA

Let's work together to explore and overcome barriers that have been keeping you from living the full, joyous life you deserve. I strive to create safe, non-judgemental therapeutic relationships based on mutual trust and respect. I especially enjoy working with clients to identify and overcome emotional and relational patterns that are no longer serving you, and creating new approaches that can allow you to be your most authentic and fulfilled self.

We all face challenges in life, but sometimes we get stuck, overwhelmed, or notice repeating patterns that negatively affect our relationships, work, and our overall health. I work with women who feel anxious, worried, lonely, sad, not good enough, or confused about what to do next. My clients struggle with self-esteem, anxiety, hurtful relationships, family issues, difficult transitions, trauma and many other life challenges. Most women I see are looking to build confidence, become empowered to make changes, break unhealthy patterns and form healthier relationships. Counseling can be a great resource we can use to heal and grow.

I specialize in working with unique adults who are overwhelmed, stressed or feeling lost and disoriented. If you’re here, you've taken a powerful step towards finding the clarity and resilience you deserve. You are ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, uncover your true potential and are seeking guidance toward a more authentic life. You need to find the right support to fit your needs. I use a collaborative approach rooted in empowerment to provide support and tools for navigating challenging times. We focus on what matters most to you: relationships, work, and self-esteem, helping you reclaim control and find balance.

I offer counseling in a warm, supportive and interactive environment. I am a licensed mental health therapist in Washington and Oregon, with over fifteen years of clinical experience. I work with individual adults experiencing a variety of concerns, including but not limited to: anxiety, depression, work and/or school stress, self-esteem, feeling stuck, life transitions, communication and relationship difficulties, loss, and stress management.

You want to feel relaxed, happy, and have healthy relationships. Instead you feel stressed, burnt out, and stuck... and that critical voice in your head has been getting loud lately, too. It can feel overwhelming and lonely to deal with all this on your own - this is where therapy comes in. Together we work to ease depression, feelings stirred up from family dynamics, anxiety, or the stress and burnout from daily life. You bring yourself, and I bring my clinical experience, kindness and patience. Emotions are part of the package deal of being human, but you don't have to feel them alone.

My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and compassionate space for you to re-connect with your whole self (body included!) as well as your strengths, and to process through emotions and experiences that feel challenging to face and sort through on your own. As a black mixed race person of color myself, my racial identity is a lens through which I see the work and how I show up in the therapeutic space. I have a special interest in processing through grief for those who have experienced loss of any kind. I utilize calm, reflective listening, somatic awareness, social justice and systems focus, and a strengths-based approach.

I love to work with female, male, and LGBTQ professionals who experienced hurtful childhoods or abusive relationships and struggle to let go of the past, feel "like they are not enough", "have to prove their worth", or "settle for less". I love to help clients understand why they continuously attract "the wrong partner" so they can make different choices, move on from hurtful relationships, and attract more suitable partners. I welcome polyamory, kink, and sex-positivity. I enjoy helping clients get past traumatic experiences so they can feel safe in their bodies again and courageous about taking up space in their lives.
