I believe you can embrace yourself, and push yourself, without having to succumb to society's views of your assigned roles, in your professional life, and within your relationships.
I'm very experienced working with minority communities including working with women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ clients. Minority groups and couples, particularly those at the intersections of gender, race, and sexual orientation, who are often underrepresented in fields of work such as business, tech, and entrepreneurship. I believe therapy should be a safe and non-judgmental space that empowers individuals to be able to push their own limits and views of themselves, in all aspects of their personal and professional lives. Being able to embrace, love, and be proud of oneself, is one of the strongest things a person can learn to do.

I believe that each of us has the inner strength and resources to accomplish our life goals.
My approach to counseling is to focus on strengths and help to assist with solutions rather than telling my patients what to do. My focus is to address short-term problems as well as long-term psychological well-being. The more you can tell me about what and how you are feeling, the more effectively I will be able to assist you in resolving your personal problems and issues. I believe all individuals are deserving of acceptance, respect, compassion, and understanding, and all children are capable of success in academics, extracurricular activities, and social interactions.

I work with adults and teens (age 16+) on a variety of issues relating to depression, anxiety, relationships and communication. The goal of my work is to help clients overcome difficulties and improve their mental health quality of life. My experience as a therapist will allow you to let go of old habits, fears, and belief systems which have kept them from the joyous and free life you desire. My specialty is working with adult children of alcoholics, depression and anxiety.

I believe in the ability of all of us to grow and learn with the many experiences of life.
I work with adults, teens and children through a solution focused lens to help them on their life journey. I believe that across time we continually grow and change and that sometimes along the way it can help to have some guidance and support.

I work with the experience of anxiety, low self-esteem, navigating challenging life transitions, or relational conflict.
Connection is an essential part of life, but many times, our experiences, life transitions, or personal narratives can leave us feeling disconnected, from ourselves and in our relationships. Perhaps you feel like you’ve tangibly achieved a lot, but struggle to feel worthy or confident. Perhaps you feel like you’re in a loving relationship, but struggle to trust your partner. I work with clients desiring to strengthen their connections through exploring what is causing the disconnects and preventing them from being able to rewrite and live their most authentic lives.

I am a Clinical Social Worker trained by the University of Washington School of Social Work, specializing in Child and Family issues that span the life span: pregnancy and early parenthood, career change, serious illness, aging.
My goal in counseling is to help my patients go from where they are to where they want to be. I provide a nurturing, emotionally safe environment for people experiencing life transitions, grief and loss. My patients learn to: 1) understand and better manage anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationships, sleep problems, and disturbing thoughts; 2) identify innate gifts, talents, strengths; 3) develop and work toward achievable goals.

You will now have a person in your corner who will help guide you through one of the most critical periods of your life without the fears of judgment, shame, disappointment, or personal agendas.
Is anxiety, overwhelm & past trauma making you feel like the walls are caving in? You’ve done everything “right” in life, only to realize that hasn’t made life any easier. Maybe you are one of those high achievers who succeeds at everything or a people-pleaser terrified of confrontation. Either way – you feel out of control & ashamed because - why can’t you figure this mental health stuff out? On top of all this, you are at a time of great transition, change & growth. Learning to be an adult in a scary & unpredictable world can feel very lonely & crushing. Especially a world that can feel like it’s going off the rails.

Our therapist’s credentials reflect professionalism, but it’s their life experiences that truly foster empathy and understanding.

They need support to navigate these barriers and restore their understanding of family and community. Their goals include reducing recidivism and learning sustainable practices for a healthier life. They seek practical skills and specialized techniques to address unstable mental health and foster resilience. Ultimately, they want to break the cycle of disadvantage, rebuild strong family connections, and cultivate a fulfilling, stable future for themselves and their loved ones.

Working together, let’s delve into the challenges that have brought you into therapy, the strengths and resources we can uncover within you, and discover new possibilities for your life going forward.
At one time or another, we all find ourselves stuck and struggling to move ahead. We have learned to cope and move through our lives using tools and coping mechanisms that have worked in some ways, but have not allowed us to feel grounded, comfortable, or fully happy with our lives as we progress through them. My job is to work collaboratively with you to create safety and trust through which we can help you develop skills and gain insights, allowing you to reclaim happiness and comfort in your life. I am most passionate about supporting people dealing with Anxiety, Grief, and Life Transition issues.

We all have stories to tell. What happened in our lives isn’t who we are, it is what happened to us. The challenging stories are based on past events, being activated now via negative automatic thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and repeated behaviors…which can keep us stuck and/or prevent us from living in genuine alignment with who we are. I believe we each have the ability to reset, readjust, restart, and rewrite the parts of our story that are no longer helpful or serving us. We are amazingly intelligent, creative, resilient, and adaptive beings! What story(ies) do you want to rewrite, or let go of, that are no longer helpful?

I am passionate about working with individuals and couples. Navigating live's challenges can be really intimidating amidst the stressors of life, especially when they all start piling up and ways you used to cope before stop working.

By identifying and working through barriers, new patterns can be learned, and healing experiences can be found. Resources can be gained and emotional resilience can be improved. You can find the harmony you desire within your life, and it starts here.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
