In Person Therapists in Green Lake, Seattle, WA
You’re looking for therapy because you want something in your life to change. Maybe you want to feel different, break out of patterns you find yourself in, have better relationships, or achieve goals, but you feel blocked. The place you’re in may be incredibly painful, but I believe it holds enormous potential. Your pain is an invitation to deeper healing and growth and a sign that you desire something more. I help clients like you find deep and lasting change.

I work primarily with individuals who feel bound in aversion toward themselves. Whether concerns manifest as self-hatred, shame, relational difficulties, terminal regret, questions around spirituality, depression, anxiety, or in any number of other ways, I wholeheartedly trust there is more to the story than meets the eye. I support our exploration by opening a receptive and creative space for truths that might not feel at home elsewhere. As we shift painful thought patterns out of isolation and into dialogue between two minds, new and surprising truths emerge. These can form the basis for new peace and possibilities.

Waitlist for new clients
In life's journey, many of us encounter unexpected changes that disrupt our sense of joy and purpose, whether it's coping with loss, anxiety, severe depression, or navigating life transitions. As your therapist, I am committed to fostering an inclusive environment where diversity is not only acknowledged but celebrated. I strive to empower individuals to explore their unique identities and experiences fully. I firmly believe in embracing every facet of your being—the light and the shadow, your strengths, and vulnerabilities.

I believe, and the research clearly indicates, that the bond you form with your therapist is the biggest predictor of positive outcomes. I therefore place a high emphasis on establishing a warm, safe environment for our relationship to grow. I like to understand therapy as a shared endeavor at pattern finding. If we can understand the personal and interpersonal patterns that contribute to your difficulties, we can address the root causes of those challenges and open up new ways of experiencing yourself and others.

I am currently accepting new clients -I believe that our deepest wounds occur in the context of relationships; so too does our healing. Therapy is a collaborative process - I am committed to bringing both my clinical expertise and my humanity to our work together and my aim is to create a safe-enough space for you to bring your whole self as well.

Choosing therapy often comes from a desire to untangle a complex inner world — the emotions, relationships, and behaviors that shape you. Life is filled with a range of experiences that influence how you see the world and make meaning of the past. Past and present experiences entwine, influencing the choices you make, often outside or near the edges of awareness. In our work, I will bring attention to these patterns, creating space for deeper reflection and the discovery of new ways forward.

Do you want to feel confident, at peace, trusting of yourself, and more connected in relationships, but feel stuck in some of this instead?: if I stop pushing myself so hard, I won’t be good enough; if I share my feelings or ask for what I need it'll be too much; I can't show the real me; I should be able to just handle this myself. Folks I work with are often seeking support with things underpinning or accompanying such feelings, including: anxiety, stress, negative thought loops, difficulty with self-esteem, trauma, challenges with boundary setting, and feeling disconnected.

Is there a story you’re carrying about yourself, a situation, or relationship that’s causing heartbreak, pain, or frustration? Is it something you just can’t shake or feel stuck carrying? Stories hold power, whether they’re told to us, learned consciously, buried deep, or what we tell ourselves. They can be instructional, revealing, occasionally harmful, but filled with endless possibilities. When we are aware of our stories, we get to determine the next chapter. I want to hear your story.

Life changes, anxiety, depression or a general sense of unease have the potential to carry forward in ways that we can’t always quite pinpoint but can sense. I’ve come to this work after living much of my life in this type of lingering distress without realizing things could be different. I work with clients who are experiencing emotional discomfort and have a desire to live differently in understanding themselves more deeply. With me, clients find an equal partner, creative listener, and empathic advocate.

I see healing as the process of understanding the patterns that influence our perception of, and how we act within, the world that surrounds us. For many, these patterns might have been protective, at one point in time, though might not be serving our needs in the present. Therapy offers a space to feel seen, heard, and accepted. I believe that the individual is the expert on their life, and I trust their experience. I seek to follow the client while noticing my own curiosity that I have cultivated through schooling and experience working in the field of psychology.
