Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Seattle, WA
Gottman Method, ACT, IFS, CBT, and DBT interventions are utilized.
Life does not always flow smoothly. The past, the present, or the future can seem unclear or full of obstacles. People can get stuck, feel trapped, and the road forward is not always in plain sight. There is always a way forward. In my counseling work I am dedicated to helping people advance towards being their optimal selves, towards self- acceptance, and towards achieving their most impossible goals. With experience and specialized training in couples counseling, with mental health disorders, families, and in crisis situations, I utilize the therapeutic relationship in all of my work.

I work predominantly from an interpersonal perspective, but incorporate ACT, psychodynamic, feminist-multicultural, and other techniques as the needs of my clients require.
Updated 1/13, limited weekday telehealth availability: I have worked with extensively with clients in various stages of life transition across the lifespan and mental health workers pursuing their own therapy. I am particularly passionate about serving LGB, trans, and gender diverse clients, clients navigating ex-evangelical identity, clients and couples navigating non-traditional relationships, and grad/non-traditional students. In therapy I strive to understand and clarify my clients' goals and help them work toward building insight around their concerns. My hope is that we can end every session feeling we have made progress.

Using mindful inquiry with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, influenced by Internal Family Systems and Humanistic Psychology, our work is person centered and trauma informed.
Nearly 30 years of experience in the mental health and addiction field has helped me to be able to offer an eclectic approach for each person who walks through the door. When cognitive behavioral therapy is needed for solution focused work, that's what we'll do. When a deep dive into family of origin work is needed, we can make that our focus, using a variety of modalities that speak to the individual.

Our relationship with ourselves is life-long and at times, takes the back seat in our own lives. Perhaps you have felt overwhelmed as life continues to move forward while you have found less joy in things you used to love. You feel stuck as if you’re losing parts of yourself, or maybe you aren’t sure who you are just yet. As time has gone on, your relationship with yourself may have shifted as you navigated school, career and developing relationships and community. Our struggles may make it feel like we carry around a burden of pain. Life appears to find ways to enable us to walk around our pain or over it but not through it.

I work from a person centered approach and utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy ( ACT), and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy.
Life presents many challenges, and with busy schedules, people often forget to take care of themselves and attend to their needs. Lacking the necessary support to overcome these challenges can leave individuals feeling lost, depressed, anxious, angry, and stuck. It is important to recognize that everyone is worthy of happiness and deserves to feel fulfilled in their relationships.

We'll work from multiple points of view—depth-oriented and solution focused approaches—in order to best support your process of healing, self-development, radical acceptance, and growth.
By addressing troubling thoughts and feelings, self-sabotaging behaviors, and traumas, life can be made more manageable, productive, and fulfilling. Feelings such as grief, shame, anxiety, sadness, and anger often signal that something needs to change. Listening to and working with these feelings—some that consume us and others that gently nudge us—can move us forward. Through this, we sometimes discover that our everyday dilemmas are part of larger patterns waiting to be resolved as a whole.

My theoretical approach is based in cognitive/behaviorist therapy and extends into existentialist, solution focused, narrative, mindfulness, acceptance/commitment, and psychodynamic theories.
I use a variety of approaches ranging from cognitive reframing, exploration of defense mechanisms and automatic thoughts, training in mindfulness, bodily awareness, and examination of feelings, among others. I am interested in the ways in which we each determine our realities, what our minds say to us, and the insight that can be gained from examining those.
