Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in Alki Beach, Seattle, WA

My work focuses on intervention and assessment for people with physical illnesses and injuries. My aim is to help people understand their personal strengths and use tailored coping tools to improve their lives. I offer evidence-based therapy interventions including cognitive behavioral therapy focused on coping with health conditions, pain, and changes in physical abilities linked to aging, illness, and injury. I have particular experience working with individuals who have suffered a traumatic brain injury (concussion) or stroke. I work with adolescents and adults (ages 15 and up) as well as both individuals and families.

I am passionate about helping people better understand their bodies and sexuality to empower them in their intimate relationships. By gaining knowledge of and comfort with ourselves, we can enjoy a deeper sense of bonding and pleasure in sexual relationships. Whether you are looking to improve your connection to your body or your relationship with your partner(s), I am here to support your journey. I believe sexual health and pleasure are fundamental to both personal well-being and fulfilling relationships. We will collaborate to help you develop a sexual life that gives you joy, pleasure, a sense of connection, and an authentic identity.

I work from an anti-oppression, inclusive-feminist lens. I believe that counseling is a journey to self-discovery that you are choosing to stop taking alone. Everything you need is already within you; sometimes it just takes a little guidance -- someone to walk the path with you -- to really make the changes you want to make in your life. I specialize in clients under the "Big Rainbow Umbrella" (LGBTQIA+), trans/non-binary, non-monogamy, and kink/BDSM.

I enjoy working collaboratively with my clients, helping each to develop the specific and unique tools necessary to cultivate a more satisfying and fulfilling life. My approach is to first actively listen, gaining a thorough understanding of the history of the situation and symptoms, the presenting challenges, and any other influences such as family history, cultural or racial factors, chronic illness, and economic stressors. We will then work together to identify treatment goals and ways to reach them. I work with a broad spectrum of clients ranging in age from 16 and above, offering individual, couples, and family therapy.

Have you been trying to build intimate connections with your partner/s but your chronic illness is making it difficult? Do you feel like you don’t have the words to communicate what you’re experiencing with the people in your life? This can be anxiety provoking and is common with people trying to navigate life after an acquired invisible disability. Unfortunately, avoiding the issue can cause resentment which can lead to long-term problems. This is where an empathic and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship can help develop the tools needed to have intimate conversations and self-reflect what you need.

Are you looking for support around making changes in your life or gaining some personal insight? Or are you interested in improving your general sense of wellbeing? Maybe you have run in to barriers to acheiving goals in some area of your life such as your health, or relationships? Or perhaps you just feel stuck. If so, I can help. We all experience struggle at times. Entering therapy can be the first step in a process of gaining better understanding of yourself and the thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that may be preventing you from living the life that you want to live.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing therapy and consultation for individual clients in West Seattle. I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach to working with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, or facing difficult life transitions. Sometimes therapy can be about seeking solutions to problems; often the more important work is in creating space to sit with and digest the parts of our experience that we generally try to avoid.

I help women entrepreneurs and healers who struggle with co-dependency and an over developed sense of responsibility for others. Codependency is often linked to fear which influences how we speak and respond to business as well as personal decisions. I use reflective inquiry, somatic approach and mindfulness to explore and move out of anxiety and fear informed thinking and responding. We can collaborate to find a routine in responding, noticing and expressing your truest self that positively protects your energy and over time brings peace and abundance to your entire life.
