In Person Therapists in York, Bellingham, WA
Life can take us on an unexpected journey. Sometimes it brings an exciting adventure, and other times it leaves us feeling anxious and out of control. Do you find yourself wishing you could get "back to normal" or wondering how to cope? Many of my clients seek therapy because they want to feel like themselves again. Trauma, loss, and other life transitions are painful, but difficult experiences don't define who you are. We all have the inner capacity for healing and growth.

Regrets no current openings. Waitlist available. I work with individuals & individuals of couples & particularly appreciate working with young adults & elder adults. Emphasis is on building self-efficacy, a positive psychology approach supported by CBT - not only navigating the impact of internal and external weaknesses but also building your strengths - what else is going to bail you when times get rough! And yes, it's OK to have weaknesses. No human is without. To say, "I have weakness," is not to say, "I am weak."

I am accepting new clients.
You feel unnatural, like you’re following instructions. The idea of washing the dishes or emptying the dryer feels heavy, intimidating. You are lonely most of the day, but spending time with people doesn’t help. You try not to think about the future too much. You’re busy all day, and the tasks keep on piling up with no end in sight: there’s a long list of things you “haven’t gotten to yet”. Not even people close to you understand how hard you are working and how precarious your life is. Doctors haven’t helped any more than religion or podcasts. If anything, you are sinking deeper.

We offer in-person and online coaching for integration and recovery.
You’re successful on paper, but inside, you’re exhausted. Anxiety, burnout, or old trauma patterns keep running the show, no matter how much you achieve. Maybe you’ve tried therapy, medication, or even white-knuckling your way through, but nothing sticks. You’re tired of cycling through perfectionism, addiction, or emotional avoidance just to get by. You want relief, but more than that—you want to feel alive, present, and at peace in your own skin. Our work together focuses on breaking these loops and building a sustainable, self-compassionate way forward.
