Premera Therapists in Seattle, WA

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 work with adult individuals (18+) who are looking to find greater balance in their lives. I have found that therapy is most effective when practiced consistently, and as such, I choose not to see clients less frequently than once a week.

The world is real rough sometimes isn't it? Let's find a gentle place for you to land. Maybe you're struggling with a relationship that's not working out or you find yourself feeling anxious or irritable without knowing why. Let me help you find more flow in your life, to move through past difficulties and reconnect with your body and your creative self. I strive towards anti-oppressive work and am queer and neurodivergent affirming . You'll set the goals that feel most important to you with my guidance and support. You set the course and I'll be your guide along the way.

I became a therapist because I want to join with clients as they heal from pain and trauma. People need support for many reasons, some relatively simple and some so complicated as to seem unbearable. Psychotherapy is not only for people with severe illnesses or trauma but for people who feel stuck with their relationships, their careers, their friendships or have experiences that have a major impact on their daily lives and functioning.

I utilize psychotherapy, EMDR, and hypnotherapy to access the incredible power of the subconscious mind to aid in healing trauma, anxiety, depression, drug & alcohol abuse, eating disorders and codependency.

Although I help people working through a wide range of issues and symptoms, I specialize in helping those struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship problems and life transitions. I love helping clients detach from the unnecessary barriers placed by oppressive social structures, society, family, or themselves so they can start living the life they've always wanted. It's important to me that my clients feel heard, validated, challenged, and that our therapeutic relationship is collaborative. I value providing for my clients an experience that feels tailored to their needs.

***Unfortunately, my practice is currently full**I provide a warm, accepting space for people to explore what matters to them and what’s getting in their way. I help clients learn to feel more comfortable with their emotions, to experiment with different ways of relating to their thoughts and feelings, to cultivate resilience, and to develop the self-trust and self-compassion that will support them along their paths. I have a particular interest in working with young adults, people navigating times of transition or loss, and people struggling to find purpose and meaning in their lives. I welcome anyone who feels I may be a good fit.
