I am accepting new clients at this time in WA, OR and ID. I offer a relaxed atmosphere in therapy where humor and lightheartedness can be incorporated into our professional relationship, when appropriate. I work with individuals, teens and couples who are seeking positive change in their lives and relationships. Ultimately, you will get the best idea of what a therapist is like by meeting them, so I encourage you to reach out to set up a free 15 minute consultation so that we might meet and see if we are a good fit. Research shows that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most reliable predictors of therapeutic effectiveness.

I work with a variety of issues- trauma, attachment issues, sexual challenges, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, life transitions, LGBTQ+, and more. With individuals, I draw primarily on AEDP and ISTDP- two compassionate, deep, and relational psychodynamic approaches designed to create lasting change. I am actively receiving training in both, along with consultations in order to provide high quality therapy to all my clients. I work with couples and have done training in Emotional Focused Therapy for Couples and sex therapy (ATSIP Level 1). I am currently doing trainings in ISTDP for Couples and in the Developmental Model.

Do you have a heaviness in your chest that is holding you down? Do you want to break free from that feeling? Sometimes people don't want to talk about depression because they might feel that there is no hope. I'm here to tell you that there is hope. I'm not going to lie, there is no quick fix, but there are tools that I have a lot of experience working with people to overcome their depression as well as anxiety and trauma. I believe that if we work together, something will change for the better.

Hello! I offer psychotherapy and professional consultation services. As a therapist I work with adults (18 and up) who have difficulties related to trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, loss, and aging, including anxiety, depression, decreases in life satisfaction, and end of life concerns. I am cognitive-behavioral in my theoretical orientation and pull from a range of evidence-based interventions depending on my clients' needs and preferences. I integrate acceptance-based practices, such as mindfulness, in treatment as needed. I welcome clients of any race, gender, or sexual orientation.

Life can be hard, can cause twists, turns, and sometimes unexpected trauma happens to us or those we love. This can include grief and loss, particularly painful when it involves loss of a child or fertility loss. That is where good therapy is key to relieving the pain and understanding how to process such abstract emotions that often consume our entirety. I specialize in helping adults navigate such hurtles, particularly those attached to fertility related trauma, infant loss/miscarriage, traumatic births, postpartum depression/anxiety and bereavement. I welcome all those who seek support; therapy is hard, but you are here.

I am open to new clients! We often face challenges in our lives and relationships that test our resilience, confidence, and faith.

For some of us life can bring some pretty significant challenges, stressors or transitions that just have "you stuck" in unproductive patterns in relationships, work, school or just life in general. You yearn for release-freedom from these unproductive repetitions; but where to turn? It takes courage to seek help and the task of finding the right person can be overwhelming. The thought of talking to someone who does not understand your cultural lens makes therapy seem "hardly worth the effort". UNFORTUNATELY NO LONGER EXCEPTING CLIENTS AT THIS TIME.

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENT! Are you living your best life? Do you sense your life has become unmanageable? Do you struggle in relationships? If your story contains themes of depression, anxiety, addiction, interpersonal issues or just "seem to be stuck right now"; lets have a conversation to see how I can help you to create a better story. I'm a therapist, but I'm also a parent and wife who makes plenty of mistakes. Luckily, perfection isn't necessary or desirable. It often takes only small, positive changes to yield significant benefits. Things can get better, sometimes quickly, if you begin taking steps in the right direction.

Everything in life comes back to relationships. By intentionally attending to and nurturing our relationships to others, we deepen our connection to ourselves. I invite couples and families to explore hidden emotions, desires and fears, with the goal of deepening intimacy for more fulfilling connections. I look forward to working with clients from all walks of life, particularly couples interested in exploring CNM, clients seeking to expand their understanding of their sexuality, parents navigating the postpartum period, and BIPOC and intercultural couples and families, in monogamous and non-traditional relational structures alike.

Complete the Patient Inquiry Form on my website. You will receive a response the same or next day. My practice is primarily composed of adults struggling with anxiety and depression.
