Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Seattle, WA

Much of the work I do involves helping clients connect with themselves on a deeper level using mindfulness, Hakomi and internal Family Systems (all overlap a great deal).
Licensed in Washington and Oregon, I offer Telehealth psychotherapy and counseling for those wishing to deepen their self awareness and self compassion skills. This, in turn, to benefit and inform all our relationships. We’ll work experientially, in the moment, growing awareness and compassion for all the parts of you that come up in sessions and finding ways to meet their needs and heal the burdens they carry so that you and they can be more free and harmonious in the world.

My approach has its grounding in CBT but when appropriate I also use mindfulness techniques, components of Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT), and Schema Therapy to enhance the treatment and support the client's movement toward accomplishing treatment goals.

I draw from attachment theory, psychodynamic and Buddhist psychology, CBT, DBT, Internal Family Systems, EMDR & Mindfulness.
We each have the ability to adapt, overcome adversity, feel joy and sorrow, love, and reach our highest potential. Stressful life events, trauma, loss, conflicts, illness, and transitions can overwhelm our ability to cope. Healing becomes blocked. We become stuck. We protect and defend ourselves to avoid ever feeling that pain again. Solutions that once worked become part of the problem. When the traumatic wound is triggered, we experience intense emotion and distorted ways of thinking. In therapy, we journey together to uncover and remove the blocks to healing, transforming pain and loss into meaning, awareness, and choice.

Using evidence-based approaches like CBT & mindfulness, we'll build resilience, improve well-being, & strengthen relationships.
Current openings as of 5/19/25. Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you're searching for a qualified, compassionate Mental Health Counselor, you’re in the right place. Life is challenging, and we all face struggles that can feel impossible to navigate on our own. Avoiding our fears and emotions may seem like a way to protect ourselves, but in the long run, it can hold us back from growth and healing.

My therapeutic approach in supporting clients who are faced with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and more, is based on trust, client-centricity, and mindfulness.
My goal is to create a therapeutic environment that is based on honesty, trust, meaning, and humor. I see the therapeutic session as a "sandbox" for exploring thoughts, creating perspective, identifying personal meaning and values that support the client's goals of a life well lived.

Through interpersonal, contextualized therapy and mindfulness (paying attention to our whole bodies), I aim to facilitate spaces where healing and wellness can be experienced and intentionally re-integrated.
I work with black and indigenous people of color, specifically women of color to remind and reconnect them to the resilience, support and healing that is available internally and externally. Having space to breath, to name, identify and re-claim is essential to healing. Through a holistic lens, I offer and co-create that space with you and for you.

The holistic approach I use incorporates mindfulness as a general practice.
I offer psychotherapy that thoughtfully integrates evidence-based practices with spiritual insight. My approach honors the connection between mind, body, and spirit—blending proven therapeutic techniques with spiritual influences tailored to each individual’s belief system. This allows for deeper healing, growth, and a more holistic path to well-being.

My approach stems from Mindfulness & Internal Family Systems theories, incorporating new ways to be in the world.
Are you struggling with feelings of loneliness despite having lots of friends and people in your life? Do you feel like you are unable to be yourself with the people you most care about? Do you want to feel healthier and happier? I want to help you to find more joy and ease in your life by focusing on the most important relationship we have, which is with ourselves. Learning how to become more connected to oneself is not easy, but it's a huge start. I want to work with you to build self compassion, a key to healing.

By using various treatment modalities, such as DBT, CBT, ACT, EMDR, mindfulness, somatic work, and trauma healing, together we craft interventions that work for you.
I listen a great deal, ask relevant questions, let the client take the lead, and redirect when needed. I rarely give advice unless asked; however, I offer problem-solving ideas and skills that may fit the situation. Humor is important to me, and I often laugh with my clients at life’s absurdities.

I utilize CBT, DBT, MI, existential, and mindfulness techniques to meet the individual needs of the client.
I have experience working with a wide variety of clients, ranging from 3-40 years old. I work mostly with teens who struggle with substance abuse and compulsive behaviors. This includes individuals who have co-occurring diagnoses of depression, anxiety, and stressor-related disorders. I believe that substance use and mental health are connected and they should be addressed that way.
