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.

The needs of the clients I see vary greatly. Some people see me to work toward a specific goal or on an issue; some people I see just need a person to talk to or a different perspective on things. I tailor therapy to what my client needs - therapy is your time so we can use it in a way that will be most helpful for you.
Specialties: I specialize in working with those who identify as LGBTQ+, gender affirming therapy, ENM clients, sex therapy clients, and couples experiencing problems surrounding communication and intimacy. This list of specialties are only some of the clients I see and I encourage you to reach out even if you don't fit within these descriptors.
