Women's Issues Therapists in West Seattle, Seattle, WA
Welcome! I know that things are rough right now, and holding the fear, anger, complexity, resistance, boundaries, connection and healing at once feels like an overwhelming and impossible task; especially since people also need to go to work, clean the house, and look after loved ones at the same time! I believe therapy that affirms and supports folks can be a vital tool to help navigate changes, bolster personal growth and self-worth, recognize patterns, and feel less alone in the chaotic world we are living in.

Your uncomfortable symptoms may be what send you to therapy, but they can also serve you. You may feel overwhelmed or confused, and yet this is also an invitation for hope, curiosity, insight, and self-compassion. It is an opportunity to be able to access some of the deepest realms of yourself, to heal, and to move forward with greater confidence in your life. I work with individuals of all ages, and provide support for people experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, adoption, trauma, body image and eating disorders, life transitions, individuation, co-dependence, overall work and family stress, and multicultural issues.

Life can be complicated, and sometimes it helps to have a space where you can slow down, be yourself, and talk things through. Whether you're navigating everyday stress, relationships, parenting, life transitions, or the ups and downs of growing up, therapy can offer support, insight, and connection along the way.
My approach is relaxed, collaborative, and centered around you. I’m not here to tell you who you should be. Instead, I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment.

Many of the struggles people carry did not begin with them. Anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, identity concerns, and the effects of trauma are often rooted in experiences and patterns shaped long before a person had language for them.
I work with individuals, couples, and families seeking to better understand themselves, their relationships, and the stories that have shaped them. I bring particular depth to those navigating cultural identity, intergenerational expectations, or the feeling of living between worlds. Together, we make sense of what you've been carrying & move forward with greater clarity, connection, & choice.

You long to feel more at home in yourself — less tangled in old patterns, more rooted in who you're becoming.

You want to feel more alive in your body, clearer in your boundaries, and more connected to your own truth. Therapy offers a place to soften the armor, reconnect with the parts of yourself that have gone quiet, and gently explore what's ready to shift. You don't have to have it all figured out — just be willing to begin.

Anxiety, depression, and stress often stem from unspoken needs and unclear communication. Many of us fall into old patterns without even realizing it, especially when we are stressed or trying to protect ourselves. While those habits may have helped us in the past, overtime can lead to defensiveness or feeling disconnected.

Welcome! Our work together will be dynamic, reflective, and creative, with dashes of humor, invitations to try new things, and together finding concrete ways to help you feel better. My main approaches to working with others are through a feminist, non-directive lens; one in which I follow the lead of the client, listen, ask questions, make observations, and also speak of the Narrative you frame your life in. As a writer and one who utilizes Narrative and Poetic therapy, language and the frames we characterize ourselves in are true for us.

You deserve a life that feels sustainable, not just successful.
You're used to being the one who holds it all together.

You might be navigating ADHD, anxiety, burnout, depression, relationship stress, or a major career transition and wondering why pushing harder doesn't seem to help anymore.

I'm a neurodivergent therapist specializing in high masking Autistic and ADHD adults. I also offer assessments for those who want an official diagnosis.

We will work together towards creating a more authentic life that fits your brain style, sensory needs, and values. I genuinely care about the people I work with and truly listen to what they feel is important in their lives. If you are ready to actively engage in change, we will make a great team.
