I offer therapeutic sessions for individuals, couples, youth, and families. I help facilitate a process where people can develop insight and understanding of what may be holding them back from wellness, joy, and personal growth. Sometimes this may involve family patterns, behaviors that are not in line with one's values, or relationships that are no longer serving you. My job is to create safety for people to share their authentic selves, honoring strengths and navigating challenges together. My intention is to honor your gifts and to expand new ways of thinking or approaching situations to better meet your goals.

Brené Brown says that disappointment happens when expectations don't meet reality. If you are expecting a therapist who offers brief, solution, or behavior-focused therapy, I am not a good fit for you. I'd rather be the Sam to your Frodo, aka "I can't carry the ring for you, but I can carry you." If you don't get that reference, then "these are not the droids you're looking for." I thrive working with the complex, quirky clients who worry they are too broken, too weird, or too much. ADHD, ASD, PTSD, and LGBTQIA clients are my jam, along with folks who have left a religious or high control group and are deconstructing. I see you.

I enjoy helping others find meaningful, authentic ways of connecting in their relationships and communities. Those I work with tend to feel a lack of connection or authenticity in their life. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process in which we get to recontextualize our experiences through truthful and empowering reframes. This includes curiosity in how your identity and lived experience has shaped your worldview. I am professionally and personally passionate about geek and gaming culture and am comfortable weaving this into therapy when appropriate. Additionally, I work with a lot of young adults in the tech industry.

Hello! So, you know those therapists who are calming, soothing, and usually have one of those freaking awesome rock formations with streaming water behind them? Yeah, well... I'm not one of those therapists! First off, I just used the word "freaking" in my intro, and that's when I'm trying to be my most professional self! Secondly, and more importantly, I'm just not into all the head bobbing and "tell me more." I'm more of a "Talk to me... what's going on?" kind of therapist. I will listen, and never judge you. I will laugh (and sometimes cry) with you, and I will use every therapeutic tool at my disposal to help you!

I am an adoptee from Colombia, S.A.; a relationship and family therapist in Washington State. I am an adoptee-focused therapist, centering adoptees and their adoptee identity development through their lived experiences; pre and post-adoption. I am also passionate about relationships regardless of their structure (Consensual non-monogamy - CNM, polyamory, LGBTQIA+, and heterosexual); I believe all individuals in a relationship deserve to be heard and witnessed, opening avenues for a broader understanding of others, and ultimately, deeper interpersonal connections.
