Therapists in Seattle, WA

I believe that we are relational beings, and that health can be cultivated in intentional, honest, and reciprocal relationships that respect and reveal our inherent dignity. Because relationships with others and ourselves hold great promise and power, they can also be the focus of most of our pain as we move through life. The therapeutic relationship we build together acts as a staging ground and microcosm to help you renew the relationships you have with yourself and others in life.

Since 2012, I have been providing therapy to individuals of all ages and diverse backgrounds. I provide a caring and empathetic environment without judgement, so you can speak freely.

Life is a mixture of pleasant and unpleasant experiences. While most of us would prefer to be happy and pain-free all the time, unpleasant emotions, such as sadness, anxiety, stress, anger, and guilt are all part of the human experience. Sometimes we get “hooked” on these thoughts or emotions and they prevent us from living our lives to the fullest. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can change our relationship with unpleasant thoughts, physical sensations, or emotions so they have less of an impact on our daily lives and do not prevent us from doing the things that matter most.

I have no ideal person who might consult me. I try hard to avoid placing people in theories. What matters is the relationship I will have with you. In collaboration, we formulate the therapy goals and how best to achieve them. Each person brings his/her own entrenched detrimental beliefs, that have blocked achieving such complex goals as satisfaction in love and in work. In therapy, I expect those beliefs to be tested. Where I intervene has more to do with fostering resilience, and with the challenging of fears/anxieties that often accompany the sense of incapacity and isolation.

Mending our hearts and minds is an act of loving ourselves. Stress of life and relationships, personal history, and even your thoughts can leave you feeling empty, overwhelmed, constantly processing or numbing. Let therapy be a place for radical self care. Areas of specialty for me are working with client's on relationship and family issues, trauma, anxiety, psychosis, and depression. I am passionate about work with people who identify as biracial or mulitracial, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+. Availability currently before 3pm only.

Hi! I love listening to people and hearing their stories! I am genuinely curious about people’s lives and enjoy helping people find their strengths. I work with people for anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, self-esteem, and self-exploration, especially related to career guidance and sexual and gender identity exploration. Other areas of focus include romance/dating, self-injury, grief, and ADHD.

Is this worth it? Will it even help? Will anyone understand? Sometimes the events, relationships, and circumstances of our lives leave us feeling stressed, depressed, anxious, or alone. Maybe you’ve endured trauma or other challenges that are making life particularly difficult for you right now. Maybe you’re not sure what’s going on, things just feel off. For 25 years, I’ve walked alongside individuals in various contexts offering a safe and trusted space to feel seen and heard.

My approach to therapy is collaborative and affirming of your strengths. We will work to honor who you are as a person and your preferences for engaging in healing work.

Are you ready to begin making significant changes in your life? A trained professional can help stand by and guide you; you're not alone. I typically treat depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, adjustment, and relationship issues, but I was educated to work with a broad spectrum of mental health issues. During my training, I received specialized clinical experiences for working with survivors of traumatic events, have felt marginalized by society or their family systems due to their identities, career issues, relationship problems (e.g., loneliness, insecurity, preoccupation, attachment, etc.), and issues with body image and eating.

My greatest desire as a therapist is to offer a space where you feel seen and heard in your entirety as a human. My hope is to develop a relationship that is completely judgement free, safe, authentic, and sincere so you can dig deeper into understanding the "why" behind self- sabotaging behaviors and thought patterns. Whether you've struggled with a recent tragedy, a relational challenge, anxiety management, depression, substance use, or just need a place for expression- I am here to offer my expertise and walk alongside you at a pace that is right for you.
