For over 30 years, I've been assisting adults and older adolescents struggling with trauma, grief, stress, anxiety, depression, and relationships.
These are difficult times for many of us. You deserve to be understood and helped no matter how painful your current challenges. I refuse to believe you're 'mentally ill' and won't stigmatize you with labels, jargon, and pills. We'll be allies in our work together, and our project is you. Whether you're seeking psychotherapy, counseling, or coaching, we'll work intensely and collaboratively to promote positive change, restore balance, and promote resilience in facing life's challenges. The first step must be yours, and that's to call or email me so we can discuss what you're dealing with.

Through all of the challenges you've been through, and through the ones you are navigating now, I welcome you as you are. When you begin to accept and welcome yourself just as you are, you can begin to shift the way you experience yourself and the world: one that is aligned with your core self. I offer a safe place for you to process challenges, examine thinking and behavior patterns, and radically embrace all parts of yourself. My current practice focuses on youth, teenagers, and young adults ages 12-25.

I especially enjoy working with emerging adults as they navigate life cycle transitions (graduating college/relationships/navigating friendships), therapists in training, and people wanting to unlearn toxic narratives. I specialize in anxiety, depression, attachment and trauma. I also work with couples navigating ways to communicate and understand each other in healthier ways and how to promote healthier relationships in general. Also as a person who identifies as biracial, I enjoy work around identity exploration and privilege and oppression. Couples work is OON.

I work with adults diverse in age, culture, career, ethnicity, and gender, who experience anxiety or depression.
Where does one begin their search for relief from a vague feeling of discomfort, the source of which is difficult to locate, or from emotional/physical pain that announces itself clearly and loudly, the source being well-known? Perhaps you've tried to think your way through the problem or to read self-help books, and neither have helped. You have the thought that if you reach out to someone, relief may follow as you move from isolation to connection and relationship. So you arrive here and I welcome your call. My therapy approach is collaborative and grounded in family systems, psychodynamic, and somatic-based interventions.

I work with adolescents and adults , and I enjoy working with folks who identify as queer and trans and of various religious backgrounds and faiths.
Behind so much of how we think, what we long for, and how we relate to ourselves and others lies unacknowledged shame, trauma, and the strategies we developed, sometimes very early on, to cope with and hide these realities from ourselves. These make up the “muscle memory” of our emotional worlds, which cannot always be easily recalled, but determine our lives nonetheless. Therapy aims to cultivate awareness of what lies underneath in disconnected, dissociated ways, and provides a space to move through the pain, accept, and integrate the past so that it no longer repeats itself in our lives.

I work individually with adolescents, adults and couples.
Therapy is a space to bravely share your story, to vulnerably explore your strengths and growth areas, to boldly challenge each other towards fully-embodied growth, meaning, and connection. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, work stress, grief and loss, personal or professional identity, relationship problems, life stage transitions, general stuckness/burnout, I am here to support you. We will collaborate together to decide what it is you would want more or less of in your life. We will set a plan to get you closer to your goals with each session, while having some laughs & fun along the way, too.

I have been working with children and families, teens and young adults for more than 25 years. With genuine warmth and hopeful optimism I connect with individuals through virtual counseling or as we walk and talk on Alki. Building a supportive relationship is foundational to helping clients understand and manage emotions, gain skills for communication and work through life’s challenges. Every one of us must learn to understand, appreciate and accept ourselves as unique individuals. Helping others find their voice in this process is my goal and great joy.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the United States, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
