I think there is no greater pain in life than bearing an untold story or feeling like you have to go it alone and do your work completely by yourself. As your therapist, I view my role as a fellow travel companion and a guide to help you navigate the terrain of your life. I seek to create a safe space for you to explore your story, create detours where there are obstacles, and create a path to a better future. I enjoy working with folks who not only want to find relief from their problems, but also seek to shift the paradigm of how they see themselves in relation to others and the world.

I often tell my clients that it's OK to expect more from therapy. Even if you've had unsuccessful attempts in the past, it can be possible to heal rapidly and permanently from the impacts of trauma, gambling, substance use, and relationship addiction/codependence. I will work with gentleness and compassion toward your goal of healing even deep-seated patterns using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). While each client and situation is unique, profound healing is possible: often over the course of months, not years.

Counselor, LMHC

I work primarily with adults in individual weekly therapy and with couples. In individual therapy I work in a relational psychodynamic modality that explores the patterns of relationships in your life and the root issues behind your symptoms. In my work with couples I see the couple as the client with no mental health diagnosis given to any one person in the partnership. My aim in this work is to help couples grow in their partnership while simultaneously reducing the conflict and misunderstandings they may be experiencing in their relationship.

Throughout my life, I have always been drawn to both art and psychology. I believe that art has a unique ability to transcend words and touch the deepest parts of our being. It allows us to express and explore our emotions, thoughts, and experiences in a nonverbal and often cathartic way. Art therapy, as an integrative discipline, embraces this concept and offers a therapeutic space where individuals can find healing, self-discovery, and empowerment.

Hi, I'm Jessica! I help folx with ADHD in adulthood better understand themselves, find a sense of peace, and thrive. I know living with ADHD can be challenging, do any of these sound familiar? You’re a people-pleaser and struggle to advocate for yourself. You seem to have it “all together” from the outside but internally are struggling with anxiety, loneliness, self-doubt, or burnout. You struggle with procrastination, keeping track of all the tasks on your plate, leading to overwhelm. You feel like no one quite fully understands you. It feels like it’s so much easier for everyone else to accomplish goals.

I specialize in working with ambitious, career driven women who struggle in their romantic/familial relationships. You likely excel at work and wonder why your relationships are unsatisfying. You may spend a lot of time obsessing about your romantic partners, feel anxiety about the relationship, and likely feel like you're not getting what you deserve. What you'd love is to be with someone who recognizes and appreciates you. You want to be seen, appreciated and supported for who you are and what you bring to the table. You'd love to be able to set boundaries with others and have relationships that are fulfilling and peaceful.

I have been honored that people have felt comfortable and safe enough in sessions to discuss their most private experiences and thoughts. People often come to see me because they're struggling to keep up with their obligations between family, career, friends, and their own self care. The frustrations sour feelings toward work and relationships. Loved ones start to notice that your temperament is not the same - you're crankier or more aloof. You may feel lonely and disconnected. Sometimes you don't even know what got you upset in the first place.

I understand the unique experiences and challenges that queer and trans individuals face in our society. For queer and trans clients, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space to explore their gender identity and expression, navigate the coming-out process, address discrimination and oppression, and build a strong sense of self-worth and resilience. For cisgender clients, I offer a compassionate and knowledgeable perspective on issues related to family and relationship dynamics, communication, intimacy, sexual health, addiction issues, and eating disorders.

People often come to therapy because they just don’t feel good. Maybe they’ve suffered a traumatic or life changing event, or maybe they’ve just always felt that something isn’t right and they’d like to figure out how to feel better. Therapy can be a powerful tool to address these concerns and improve your life. Life can be rich and wonderful, but it can also be challenging and downright painful. Sometimes we need someone to really listen and understand. I am a queer psychotherapist practicing in Seattle. I offer patient, deeply engaged listening and a non-judgmental perspective, my approach is gentle and supportive.

Note: I am currently waitlist-only (No openings for new clients). Are you finding it difficult to live in and enjoy the present moment? Maybe images, thoughts, or feelings of the past keep popping up despite your best efforts. Perhaps worries of the future and its endless possibilities keep you from sleeping at night. Sometimes it may feel impossible to "just look at the bright side!". This may have led to you being unable to focus at work or school, spending less time with the people or hobbies you care about, or simply going through the motions of day-to-day life. I am passionate about helping others through these difficult times.

I often describe therapy similar to the saying "everyone has baggage". It can be difficult to hold your own baggage while sorting the contents, trying to organize the things inside, or trying to find something you lost. My role is to hold your baggage to allow you the space, time, and understanding to do what you need to with what is inside.

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.
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.
What type of therapist is right for me?
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.
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 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.
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.
