Female Therapists in Georgetown, Seattle, WA
Have you been struggling with overwhelm as an LGBTQ person in the face of our current political climate?
Being queer is especially hard right now. The news threatens to take your joy and sets your body on high alert more than usual. Old beliefs keep popping up and making you feel shame you thought you had released, and relationships just aren’t feeling meaningful or satisfying. You’re looking to try a new approach and have heard about EMDR, and you want to be able to dig in deep and see some real change.

As far as anyone can tell, you’ve got it all together. But on the inside you never feel good enough and your inner critic is quick to remind you of all the ways you’re failing. You are the friend that everyone depends on and confides in, but deep down you feel like no one really knows you. You secretly feel lonely and isolated. No one knows about the anxiety you’ve been experiencing, or about how you have trouble sleeping because you can’t keep your mind from racing. You feel weak when something happens that you can’t handle.

We all have ways of coping that may have served us at times throughout our lives. Maybe you’ve learned to bottle up your stress and emotions to keep things peaceful. Of perhaps you’ve been over-functioning and wondering if it’s possible to downshift without losing parts of your life that you’ve worked very hard for. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental, and collaborative space where we can get curious about these strategies. When we explore where we began internalizing certain beliefs, we can better understand why we’ve taken on the roles that we have.

Therapy provides a space to process and reclaim experiences, thoughts, and emotions that may have felt stuck or weighed down by the pressures of our surroundings, cultural practices, and deep-seated personal beliefs. These barriers may be reflected in your family relationships, experiences of trauma and loss, and interactions with institutional forces. As a narrative-centered therapist, I will provide a supportive environment for you to deepen your understanding of yourself, challenge these barriers, and reframe your story in order to make empowered choices that align with your values and goals.

Finding the right fit is SO important in therapy. I work well with people who want a direct, no BS approach with lots of warmth and (dare I say...) a sense of humor! I have extensive training as a coach and also in somatic therapy, and I bring both a highly practical, cognitive orientation along with a belief that healing happens when you can connect with your own intuition and truest self. In my previous work as a coach, I did a lot of work with artists, and am generally a great fit for creative types. I am also in the process getting trained in EMDR.

I work with individual adults who are feeling the impact of complex PTSD, attachment wounds, perfectionism, self-criticism, and relationship stress. You may be neurodiverse, queer or bi, exploring poly/ENM, or moving through life transitions like perimenopause. You might look capable on the outside, but feel overwhelmed or stuck inside. You’re wanting steadiness, clarity, self-trust, and more honest, connected ways of relating. Whether you’re ready for change or just beginning to wonder, you’re welcome here.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
