Couples Counseling Therapists in Olympia, WA

Hello! My name is Emma and I'm so excited that you are here! As we all try to navigate life’s highs and lows, I believe it is important to remember that we don’t have to do it alone. I am here to help you in exploring whatever stage of life you are in through a holistic lens. Together we can explore what you would like to work on within therapy.

Currently Accepting New Clients! I believe relationships play a critical role in the way we navigate throughout our daily lives. We look to our partner(s) for support, validation, encouragement, and empathy. The security in knowing our needs can and will be met, fosters a bond and attachment that is safe and secure. When couples can concede to such emotional engagements, secure bonding can evolve, thus establishing a bond that contributes to overall well-being and quality of life.

I have immediate weekend availability and am contracted with Regence (all other insurance providers are out of network). Are you feeling unfulfilled in life?

Have you drawn your last straw? I work with couples in distress regarding sexual issues, chronic conflict, and diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD. My focus in couple therapy is to understand and give space to even the ugliest parts of you and your partner that have been preventing the connection you once felt. As we contextualize parts and patterns in your experience, we can uncover the stuck-ness that is keeping you from feeling the satisfaction and safety you seek.

Our life is a journey. The journey can present us with challenges we are unsure of how to handle. If you have ever been caught in a rainstorm you’ll know you just want to have a safe place to wait it out. Or you could want a safe way to get through the storm faster. Sometimes we just wish we had someone there to be in the storm with us so we knew we weren’t alone. You are not alone. We can experience that storm together. Therapy, just like life is a collaborative process. Together we can address the challenges you face.

There is no negative situation or experience through our personal work can't be improved and even in the most difficult of circumstances we can find peace and even happiness.

Hi there! I am currently accepting new WA and NC Telehealth clients. Learning to trust someone is hard, but having to face difficult experiences alone can be even harder.

The relationships that we put so much work into with those that we love are often the same relationships that cause the most hurt. Feelings of disappointment, distress, hurt, anxiety, and depression are part of our life experience- but we don’t have to stay there. The choice is yours to make. I have learned through life experience that crisis events happen, problems arise, and change is really difficult, but it is so worth it!

As a Systemic therapist who also understands the importance of a person-centered approach, I help individuals, couples, and family’s increase awareness of current emotional, behavioral, and communicative patterns that create a barrier to personal and interpersonal growth. Recognizing the importance of culture and identity, I utilize an intersectional approach to each individual and family.

Currently accepting new clients. I work with couples, polycules, new relationships, platonic life partners, friends, families and groups.

I believe therapy is a resource to help us navigate this world & be intentional about how we show up in ourselves and our relationships. My approach is to meet people where they are at and provide tools and practices to aid them in living authentically.
