Chronic Pain Therapists in Seattle, WA
I have a passion for working with those in pain who have yet to find healing.
I want to offer you more than scratching the surface, or putting a band-aid on your pain. Let's get to the root. This work is about you - how you relate to yourself and to me. It's about the pain that you've carried (consciously or unconsciously), the grief that has shaped you and the coping mechanisms and defenses that you have adopted in order to live your life. I will bring my curiosity and my awareness to your thoughts, your feelings, your behavior. Together we will get to know the true you.

Welcome to what may well be a journey of transformation. As a psychologist, neuropsychologist, and Jungian analyst, I am dedicated to facilitating your psychotherapy or neurorehabilitation. My background in neuropsychology, mindfulness, Jungian/psychodynamic approaches, and multicultural perspectives enables me to tailor our work for your inner struggles, relationship issues, and brain health challenges (e.g., stress, anxiety/depression/grief, trauma, immigration, racial identities, LGBTQ+, life transitions, aging, chronic illness, brain injury/TBI/Alzheimer's). Together, we can arrive at a path of growth that makes sense to you.

Sometimes in life we all need a “companion on the journey,” someone to partner with us and help make sense of our experience, ease our pain, and support our goals. As a therapist, I am committed to providing a safe environment where individuals can identify their strengths, recognize unhelpful patterns, and live into their goals. Working from an integrative, client-centered approach, I seek to support individuals wherever they are on their journey and my approach is holistic, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I value cultural humility and look forward to working with people of all backgrounds, identities, and walks of life.

I think there is no greater pain in life than bearing an untold story or feeling like you have to go it alone and do your work completely by yourself. As your therapist, I view my role as a fellow travel companion and a guide to help you navigate the terrain of your life. I seek to create a safe space for you to explore your story, create detours where there are obstacles, and create a path to a better future. I enjoy working with folks who not only want to find relief from their problems, but also seek to shift the paradigm of how they see themselves in relation to others and the world.

Life can be isolating at times. This is especially true when you add in ADHD, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, chronic illness, and Queerness, cultural, and relationship issues. We hold so many identities and struggles that influence who we are and how we move through our place in the world. It is essential to find yourself among those identities and move into the whole version of yourself that finds comfort in the here and now. This includes finding your community and support through all that life throws at us.

Sometimes I introduce EEG Biofeedback to support deeper understanding of your need to find relief from emotional and physical pain.
I specialize neuromodulation therapies. My emphasis is on the interaction of our relationship, the integration of brain, mind and body. What brings you to search for a skilled professional to be present to your inquiry? An inquiry perhaps ignited by an ineffable experience, invoking you to reshape your life, or perhaps an inner call to open deeper connectivity and understanding beyond the multitude of daily cyber interactions? What do you require most to navigate your life through the labyrinth of work, relationships and community? I am available to explore your questions with you, and to support you to awaken to your own potential.

If you (the client) are looking for a therapist that can relate to you on many levels and understand your pain in a very real way, please reach out and let's get started where you are at.
I have a great education as well as experience working with clients. Along with that I have a lot of lived experience in many things. Such as lose, physical trauma, and emotional trauma. The experience and education combined with the lived experience makes me able to connect to clients in a way someone with just the education and experience may not be able to find. I use the combined effort to make measurable changes in behaviors that the client is wanting to change or that is bringing them pain.

Do you ever feel that you may be getting in the way of yourself in your efforts to live a rich and fulfilling life? Maybe you feel unmotivated or disconnected from a sense of joy. Often, this results from a lack of clarity about what matters most to you or even well-intentioned efforts to escape feelings of pain and suffering. I believe that a rich, meaning-filled life includes both incredible highs and inevitable lows. Through the lens of that belief, I seek to help people mindfully, authentically, and compassionately embrace the range of ups and downs that they experience in their lives. Through this, true healing can occur!

It's safe to say there is no one-size-fits-all way to come of age during a global pandemic and Youth Mental Health Crisis. As a youth and family art therapist, I am here to help, young adults, teens, and preteens learn to harness their strengths and turn them into coping skills they can use everyday to maintain emotional balance during these exceptionally stressful times. I am experienced in the full range of challenges facing young clients, but have particular expertise with depression / anxiety/ bi-polar disorder, major life transitions and stress, suicidal thoughts, gender exploration, PTSD, and chronic illness/ pain/ disability.

I know from personal experience that healing the mind-body connection can transform persistent pain and mental distress into a path toward authenticity and self-compassion.
I specialize in helping individuals who feel stuck in cycles of chronic pain, trauma, anxiety, depression, or major life transitions—especially when traditional approaches haven’t fully helped. Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Pain Reprocessing Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and mindfulness, I emphasize the interplay of mind and body as a gateway to lasting change. Together, we’ll uncover how your experiences shape your present reality, recognize the strengths within you, and develop practical strategies that foster resilience and empower you with skills that continue to serve you well beyond our time together.

I have extensive experience helping navigate issues in Parenting, Relationship Challenges, Relational Trauma, Substance Use, Chronic Illness/ Pain in the individual and family, Mood Disorders, and Acute/Complex Trauma/PTSD.
The goals of therapy are directed toward providing a positive and collaborative forum to ease presenting difficulties; and draw on the individual's strengths and resilience to enable greater contentment and satisfaction in life. The foundation from which I view issues is from a systems approach. Thus, my focus is on the relational context that each individual resides within. Additionally, I borrow ideas from Attachment , Emotionally Focused, Cognitive-Behavioral, and EMDR constructs when tailoring goals developed for each person's unique needs.

Current openings! Many people think their problems aren't bad enough to seek help and continue suffering in the status quo - but if you're reading this, you must be getting exhausted! You might be wondering why you have such big reactions to minor inconveniences, or why things seem to come easy for everyone else. You've probably tried all the "self care" and are frustrated that you're still struggling. I have a particular interest in working with late or self diagnosed neurodivergent women and chronic illness sufferers. If your anxiety or pain is increasing, or you just have a sense that things are "off," maybe I can help!

Trauma can show up as anxiety, depression, addictions, physical pain and illness, and relationship issues.
I use a holistic approach to healing that includes mind, body and spirit. I have a particular focus on women's health issues, sexual abuse, and PTSD. Every pain, trauma, and obstacle we experience in life has information to share with us. The most difficult times we face can be truly transformative if we know how to listen to them. Sometimes we can get lost down these turbulent roads and my job is to help you navigate the path that you are already on.
