Therapists for Teens and Adolescents in Seattle, WA
I work best with people who have tried therapy before and feel ready to go deeper. My clients are often thoughtful, high-functioning people seeking more than coping strategies — they want meaning, authenticity, and lasting change. Together we explore life’s challenges through existential and Jungian therapy, bringing curiosity to questions of identity, purpose, and growth. I also specialize in psychedelic integration and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, helping people make sense of both uplifting and difficult psychedelic experiences and carry those insights into lasting growth.

Offering in-person therapy in Seattle and telehealth across Washington State for adults, teens, and families.
You may already understand your patterns. You know why you overthink, shut down, people-please, stay on edge, or keep repeating something you swore you would do differently. Maybe you’ve even done therapy before. But understanding why you feel this way hasn’t necessarily changed how you feel. I work with thoughtful, capable adults who feel stuck despite doing all the “right” things—often while navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, grief, chronic stress, relationship challenges, or a major life transition. You may not need more insight. You may need help turning what you know into change you can actually feel.

I love working with people who have come to a place in their lives where they want to make changes. Something is not working and they want to create a life with more joy, freedom, love, and integrity. Perhaps they are struggling with depression and anxiety, traumatic memories, difficult relationships, or grief, or perhaps they simply have the sense that they are not living fully. I work with my clients to establish a trusting relationship where they can speak honestly of the matters that most impact them and the events where they have felt anger, fear, grief, and shame.

With over 5 years of clinical experience, I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) trained in trauma-informed and evidence-based approaches, supporting adults and adolescents in achieving emotional well-being.
Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try, it’s never quite enough?
Maybe you overthink every choice, hold yourself to impossible standards, or feel weighed down by worry. Has that tension started showing up in your relationships through conflict, loneliness, or feeling unseen?
How about trying to explore all parts of yourself while balancing culture, expectations, and the weight of witnessing injustice? It can feel even heavier when it seems like no one else notices or cares.

As a mapmaker for your emotional landscape and a bridge builder for couples, I help teens, adults, couples, and families understand the deeper emotional patterns underneath anxiety, conflict, people-pleasing, and disconnection.
You may look capable on the outside, but internally, you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, exhausted, or stuck repeating the same painful patterns. You feel like you’re constantly shaping yourself to meet others’ expectations, but doing so makes you feel like you’re losing touch with what truly makes you happy, with who you really are. You put so much energy into being there for others, yet feel drained at the end of the day. You take on a lot of responsibility for your family, your friends, and the people you care about most, but your own needs keep getting pushed to the side.

Therapy is for all of us, but what it means and how it works is unique to each of us. While we share much in common, we all carry experiences, beliefs, dreams, and fears that are ours alone. They give us our distinct perspectives. They shape our present and future, often in surprising ways. I tailor my therapeutic approach to suit what makes you uniquely you. I like to explore how our pasts shape our current experience. I focus on our relationships, as our attachments often are a driving force in how we go about our daily lives.

I currently have in-person and virtual openings for adults, teens, and couples.
Grief has a way of defying every expectation, reshaping itself just when you thought you had found solid ground, showing up uninvited at ordinary moments: a song, a season, a Tuesday afternoon that feels heavier than it should. Maybe you thought you would be further along by now. Maybe the loss was recent. Maybe it was years ago, and you are still catching yourself surprised by how much weight it carries. Either way, you are not broken, and you are not stuck. You are in the middle of something that does not move in a straight line, and that is not a flaw in your grieving. It is just what grief actually looks like.

I work with teens & adults around managing anxiety & depression, navigating life transitions & issues related to your family of origin
Immediate availability for weekday telehealth appointments! Maybe life has been feeling out of your control, or the ways you've coped with stress and anxiety in the past aren’t working as well anymore. Perhaps you're feeling ready to explore your identity or process past traumas. Therapy can offer a supportive space to pause, reflect, and grow with intention.
I enjoy working with individuals who are new to therapy, folks navigating perfectionism or people-pleasing patterns, and folks looking to explore setting boundaries that honor yourself and your culture.

Holistic and embodied existential therapy for trauma recovery and life transitions. Rather than diagnosing and prescribing, I offer a uniquely individual and empowering experience. Many of my clients struggle with feeling fragmented, overwhelmed, dissociated, or misunderstood. Healing happens through curiosity, compassion, and trusting connection - with yourself, others, and the natural world. I help clients transform suffering and self-alienation through parts work (IFS), somatic & nature therapy, mindfulness, and depth psychology. This goes beyond symptom management to address the root cause, inviting greater wholeness within.

I believe that healing begins with being truly seen and understood. My approach is rooted in warmth, humor, and a genuine, non-judgmental partnership. Having lived and worked in diverse, low-income communities, I witnessed firsthand how systemic gaps leave many—especially BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ individuals—without the support they deserve. I am here to bridge that gap. Together, we will navigate your unique story in a space where you can be your authentic self, supported by someone who values your individuality as much as your mental health.

I work with teens and adults who find themselves overthinking every decision, questioning whether they’re "too much" or "not enough," or wondering why life feels harder than it seems to for everyone else.
There isn't one right way to do this work. I use a trauma-informed lens and draw from DBT and ACT skills, incorporating mindfulness and somatic practices when they feel helpful. Together, we’ll explore your experiences and build on the strengths you already have while finding tools that fit your needs.

Do you spend your energy anxiously caring for others, striving to be loved through perfectionism and people-pleasing? Do you crave softness, a slower pace, and more peace? Are you ready to untangle enmeshed dynamics and tend to attachment wounds?
As a radical, trauma-informed, depathologizing therapist, I center decolonization, intersectionality, and flexibility. We’ll engage in deconstruction, attachment work, and inner child healing to build agency, self-compassion, and safety in a world that wasn’t built for many of us.

I work with adolescents and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions, offering a supportive and culturally sensitive space to heal.
I have clinical experience with adolescents and adults and specialize in diverse populations. I understand the barriers that deter many, especially people of color, from seeking out mental health services. Therefore, I strive to create a safe space strongly emphasizing cultural sensitivity and relevance. I also specialize in and offer EMDR sessions.

Life can be challenging and change is inevitable, and with transitions there are many aspects to growth and loss. I work with individuals, couples, and family systems; often dealing with unprocessed grief, trauma, parenting, identity issues, and midlife decisions. It takes courage to communicate the strong emotions felt within these difficult topics, especially to those you love the most. I prioritize holding a non-judgmental space for these strong emotions to be seen, heard, and liberated.

Many problems that arise in life have to do with relationships. Relationships with others, ourselves, our behaviors, and our thinking. My approach includes gaining an empathetic understanding of a client's needs and helping them improve these relationships through assessment and utilization of their strengths.
