I am a licensed psychotherapist in the state of Washington. I work with adults, couples and teens who are at a place in their life where they are wanting or needing to make a change, but sometimes not sure how to go about it. My approach encourages clients to take responsibility for their lives but also helps to uncover what obstacles have gotten in the way of them feeling powerful, happy, and in charge of their direction in life.

I am passionate about working with trans and queer adults, neurodivergent folks, and chronic illness and disability. I love holding space for people who feel like they are "too much." My favorite type of work is long term therapy focused on identity exploration, living with complex trauma, and finding joy. Many of my clients are in the process of deconstructing deep internalized shame, and want support in taking up unapologetic space and navigating authentic connections. I also really enjoy working with marginalized folks who work in non-profit or first responder settings.

I've worked extensively with trauma survivors to help them find healing from their past, and to begin creating a life worth living for themselves in the present. I became a therapist because I wanted to work with clients who had experienced trauma, and while I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ clients, I have worked successfully with clients from numerous backgrounds.

Therapy can be an old familiar friend for some or a new experience that can bring some anxiety and hesitation for others. Together, we will build on your inherent resilience, working collaboratively while gently uncovering places that feel constricting, painful, or confusing. Therapy is a space to listen closely to your depression and grief, to anxiety and longing, to curiosities and shadows. It's a place to honor the ways your heart, mind, and body have learned to survive. My hope is that you can imagine and uncover a sturdier self through deeper self-understanding and psychological change that can alleviate suffering.

If you aren't happy in your family relationships or don't feel fulfilled in your romantic relationships, we might be a good fit. Maybe you are starting to recognize how experiences from your past are effecting your present, or trying to "get over" a recent or previous traumatic experience. Or you could be starting (or continuing) to explore you gender, gender expression, gender roles, or sexuality. You might feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and disheartened by the current political climate.

I believe that healing happens within the context of a safe, non-judgmental relationship, and my goal is to provide a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood in all your complexity. I am particularly passionate about supporting individuals navigating major life transitions—whether you are adjusting to a new home and culture after moving from another state or country, navigating the uncertainty of a career change, or doing the delicate work of redefining boundaries within estranged or strained family dynamics.

Hi, I’m Bridger, and I help men show up for their lives without hiding from themselves. My ideal client is the guy who’s done everything “right” on the outside but feels lost, stuck, or angry on the inside. He might be the dependable partner, the hardworking professional, the solid friend — but he’s carrying the weight of expectations, buried emotions, and the quiet fear that he’s not really okay. I work with men navigating anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, identity questions, and the pressure to “have it all together.”

Life as an ADHDer can feel like persisting in a world not built for you. You got that message from teachers if school became overwhelming and you weren't taught new coping skills. Or you might be burnt out at work, comparing yourself and feeling behind. Those closest to you may not understand your struggles with organization, time management, impulsivity, and sensitivity. Maybe you've been in therapy before, but focusing on just anxiety or depression hasn't helped much. And all of this is more confusing if you were diagnosed as an adult or aren't yet diagnosed. Ultimately, you just want to feel in control of your own life.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.

Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

How much does therapy cost?

The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.

What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?

Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

Are therapy sessions confidential?

Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
