Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Seattle, WA

Welcome! If you're looking for support in finding your way through one of the many challenges that life throws at us, let's talk, and see if we may be a good fit to work together.

Whether your goal is to achieve greater self awareness, build stronger personal relationships, heal past wounds, or just feel better about yourself, a therapeutic relationship can help meet that goal. I would like to join you on your journey of self discovery as an advocate, partner and guide. My particular approach is help you discover your own natural resources by tapping into your subconscious to uncover blockages to healing and actualizing your fullest potential. This approach is especially useful with trauma related disorders, depression, anxiety, addiction and habits that are hard to break.

Everyone has an innate ability to heal themselves once they decide to befriend the parts they leave in the shadows. Therapy can help you welcome these parts with compassion as they naturally integrate back into illuminated wholeness. There is no magic bullet. Knowing who you are takes time, but it is worth the inner journey required to find out. I offer support to anyone who is experiencing life transitions, issues with attachment and intimacy, psychedelic support, trauma, sexuality, perfectionism, shadow work, family and ancestral trauma and creative blocks.

The biggest takeaway from working together will be that you feel supported, seen and excited to grow. Your sessions will be a joyful experience and a safe space where we collaborate to determine and achieve your goals. I want to help you find your unique path to happiness and a life full of color. Sessions are supportive while also challenging you to truly create change and at times be open to getting uncomfortable so you can grow and live the life you want.

Everyone experiences anxiety, depression, and loss at sometime in their life. Often events and people happen in our lives that cause distress. No one deserves to be in pain and no one should have to endure when there is the possibility to reduce the pain. My goal is to help my clients find relief through self exploration and a desire to want to feel better. My job is to walk with my clients in their path to mindfulness . My goal is to provide a safe space for emotions to be expressed and validated without judgment. Together we will identify patterns and triggers, and create skills to reduce future emotional distress.

I have 10+ years experience offering therapy services to individuals, couples, and families, both in English and Spanish. I offer services via telehealth or in-office, and have lunch-time and evening appointments available. I help clients undergoing difficult times in their lives who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, issues of identity, lifestyle issues, or issues involving parenting or being part of a couple, among others. As my client, I meet you where you are at and I aim to provide insights and guidance while at the same time honoring your autonomy and agency in determining your own life’s path.

I love supporting my clients learn how to live a life they want to live while effectively navigating through life's difficulties and challenges. I enjoy working with teens and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, chronic mental health issues, chronic health problems and life transitions including divorce/breakup, developmental stages, career, education, grief, and illness. I also enjoy helping clients let go of negative core beliefs formed early in life using EMDR.

With over 20 years of experience in the field of mental health and behavior change, I will help you identify and implement the changes you need to reduce your suffering and truly thrive. While you can't control what life throws at you, you can improve your ability to respond to the present moment in a skillful way, find your balance again and get back up on your feet. From a present, strengths-based perspective, we can look ahead and explore where you would like the path ahead of you to lead. I will walk alongside you on that path to celebrate what we uncover and to support you through any obstacles you may encounter along the way.

I work with clients aged 13+ on a variety of issues, including adjustment issues, anxiety, career counseling, depression, family issues, identity issues, life transitions, mindfulness , mood disorders, OCD, panic, phobia, and stress.
