You'll find my services particularly effective if you are going through transition (career/livelihood, relational, geographical, physical, gender, financial, and so on), wanting to explore traumatic experiences, seeking support for learning or acquired physical disabilities, you are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, and parts of your life that feel out of control. You might also be seeking support through use of nature and mindfulness-based or somatic therapy modalities, dream exploration, and spirituality.

Afternoon Openings: Being a person of color who is part of the LGBTQIA2S+ community can feel isolating and lonely. Many individuals who hold these intersectional identities also have experiences of trauma, and this combined can make connection – with yourself, with others, with creativity & purposeful work extremely hard. Existing in this intersection – and feeling as though your values are misaligned with capitalist, patriarchal systems – is not easy. Finding a therapist that understands your experience is even harder. You want true healing and transformation, you just need to find the right support to get started or go deeper.

Hi! I am an intern with Dayspring Behavioral Health in Maple Valley, WA. I enjoy working with people of all ages specifically 12 years old and up. I believe that life is relational therefore the relationships that we have with ourselves, others, our environment and our spirituality can inform our overall health. Adjusting to big life transitions is unfortunately frequent in human lives, this can be a great time to learn or refresh our coping skills, creating safe spaces in ourselves or in our environments, and reconnect with our inner resilience even when it doesn't seem possible.

Accepting New Clients. As a sex and relationship therapist, I bring a somatic perspective to sessions: highlighting the nervous system, locating feelings in the body, and developing skills for increased pleasure and embodiment. My primary focus is relationships, including relationship to others, community, self, the body, and the natural world. I believe that connecting with ourselves leads to a deeper connection with others, and I practice both individual and relational therapy. In session, I invite deeper conversations around sexuality and gender, which are foundational aspects of who we are and how we express ourselves.

If you are here that means you are likely seeking support for something in your life that feels difficult, overwhelming, confusing, or painful. My work is to offer you a safe, kind, and accepting space to further explore your internal and external realities. Together we will be curious about your unique life experience, the impact of your experience, the struggles and conflicts you may be facing, and what you need to thrive. I believe therapy is the process of uncovering who you were meant to be before the world told you who you should be or wounded you with its expectations and cruelty.
