You want to feel more connected—to yourself, your relationships, and the life you’re building—but something’s in the way. I specialize in working with women navigating life transitions: motherhood, career changes, loss, identity shifts, or relationships in flux. My approach is rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS), helping you explore and heal the parts of you that carry pain, pressure, or protection. I'm Level 2 trained in IFS with advanced training in IFIO for couples. Together, we’ll move toward clarity, connection, and lasting change.

I enjoy working with individuals, families, and couples navigating parenting, relationship distress, anxiety, depression, grief and other stressors. You may find yourself overthinking, shutting down during conflict, or feeling uncertain about what comes next. Past experiences can add even more pressure, leaving you feeling disconnected from yourself or the people you love. My approach is warm, encouraging, and focused on helping you identify the patterns and unmet needs that keep you stuck. I will help you better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and make choices that align with your values.

You may have spent years trying to understand your emotions, reactions, or relationship patterns, yet still feel stuck. Even with insight and effort, the same emotional or relational cycles may continue to repeat. Experiences such as family dynamics, difficult relationships, or major life transitions can quietly shape how we think, feel, and respond outside of awareness.Many of the individuals, couples, and families I work with are thoughtful people seeking more than symptom relief. They hope for greater emotional stability, clarity, and more grounded ways of relating to themselves and others. 可提供中文（國語/普通話）與台語諮商服務，歡迎華語與多元文化背景的來談者

I am in network with Blue Cross, Blue Shield (Premera and Regence), Cigna, Aetna, Molina, Coordinated Care/Ambetter, and United/Optum.
I enjoy working with couples who are stuck in negative patterns and are seeking deeper emotional connection. I value generational work with clients who want to explore inherited patterns. My approach is centered on helping clients connect with themselves and what they want, build a sense of autonomy over what they can influence, and find peace with what is outside of their control. I am an attachment-based, integrative therapist who draws from several modalities, including Emotionally Focused, Narrative, and Contextual Therapy. I am available for in-person sessions in Renton and via telehealth throughout WA State.

Are you struggling to put your feelings into words? Or maybe you feel stuck and tired of getting through it without help. If you're interested in talking with someone who takes your experience seriously, we can work together to address depression, anger, life transitions, career, relationships, and identity. I also have an understanding of corporate culture, job stress, and the pressures of disappearing work-life balance. I have both in-person and telehealth openings.

I believe, that although we sometimes through no fault of our own fall onto difficult times and challenges, we are all special and have something to offer this world. Sometimes we just need a helping hand, to get back to that point where we can deal with our challenges in a healthier way and outlook.

I specialize in supporting individuals and families who are navigating chronic illness, anxiety, and neurodivergence, deeply valuing the opportunity to help people build resilience and connection in a world that often overlooks their strengths. With advanced training in medical family therapy, I also appreciate the opportunity to work alongside individuals and families adjusting to living with chronic and acute illness, often working with caregiver burnout, the complexities of cancer care, and hospice/grief support.

My goal is to provide a compassionate, affirming space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered.

Welcome! I work with men, adolescents, and teens who want to make meaningful changes in their Self-understanding. Many of my clients are trying to carry it all on their shoulders—stress, overwhelm, self‑doubt, or patterns that keep repeating despite their best efforts. I offer a warm, steady space where you can be honest and explore what’s really happening beneath the surface. Together, we identify what is getting in the way and help you move toward a life that feels more like the one you want to live.

I work with individuals and couples, specializing in supporting those navigating chronic illness, immigration/cultural identity stress, and major life transitions. Whether you're adjusting to parenthood, caregiving, grief, relationship challenges, or questions of belonging, therapy can offer a space to feel grounded and understood. Having attended 15 schools across different countries, I deeply understand the experience of living “in-between” cultures, expectations, and identities. I work with individuals, couples, and families through a systemic, relational, and culturally responsive lens.

You've spent so long being the strong one that it feels impossible to slow down. Lately you're running on fumes, pulled in every direction, carrying old hurts you rarely talk about, and wondering if you'll ever feel truly grounded again. What you're feeling makes sense. Many of the people I work with come in feeling exhausted, anxious, or weighed down by patterns they can't seem to break. You want a therapist who listens without judgment, moves at your pace, and helps you find steadier days, clearer boundaries, and a sense of calm you can actually trust.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples navigating relationship stress, communication challenges, betrayal, financial pressure, and feelings of emotional disconnection. When trust is strained or your needs feel unmet, it’s common to feel confused, stuck, or unsure of yourself. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by patterns that repeat in their relationships, and unsure how to change them. I help clients slow down, gain clarity, and better understand themselves and their relational patterns.

When you long for safety and connection but only experience distance and loneliness, you may feel like giving up. I work with couples who still love each other but feel disconnected, as well as individuals who constantly check, replay conversations, or search for certainty. You may be caught in the same arguments on repeat, rebuilding trust after an affair, or walking on eggshells with others or in your own mind. Old wounds, childhood patterns, and protective ways of loving or fighting can take over your reactions. Together, we will work toward secure relationships, a quieter mind, and a life that isn't organized around strain.

What we control in life is limited to our own inner world. We influence those around us, but the outcome is not up to us. That truth can feel like a burden when you are in the middle of something painful, and it can feel like a door when you realize it means there is still one place where your work matters.
My clients are adults navigating grief, major life transitions, relationship strain, and the kind of slow rebuilding that happens after a chapter closes. Resilience is the strongest predictor of a contented life, and it can be built at any age, through any season.

We live in a world where being yourself is under threat and personal identity and personal attacks are on the rise. Creating a safe space for clients to voice their concerns without judgement can be extremely beneficial for individuals. Finding out underlining themes, creating workable and realistic goals and helping people be at peace with who they are and where they are in life is paramount in self identity.

I am currently accepting new individual and relational clients!
Many of my clients seek out therapy to gain a deeper understanding of who they are and how they show up in relationships. Many people fear conflict, but it is a normal part of life, and the repair after rupture is what helps fortify and strengthen relationships. I work to help folks access authenticity and share who they are with the people they love most. In relational work, I help each person see their part in the dance of their relationship, evaluate unmet needs, and find new ways to connect with their loved ones.
