Divorce Therapists in Seattle, WA
I often address depression; general and social anxiety; family relationship struggles; perfectionism, overachievement, control, workaholism; singlehood/couplehood; mother/daughter issues; life transitions (new job/job loss, move, engagement, divorce/breakup, etc.
Psychotherapy is meant to address the roots of mental and emotional struggle, rather than just symptoms. In my practice, we can explore your strengths and challenges, discovering over time what motivates you, what may be contributing to your difficulties, and what helps you thrive. You will have the opportunity to get to know yourself and find ways of living that feel satisfying and fulfilling. My approach is intended to help create more room for your experience and navigate your thoughts and feelings with understanding, compassion, and skill.

The Millennial urge to doomscroll, binge true crime docs, and dissociate is real... but deep down, there's a part of you screaming for change. You’ve been carrying the weight of trauma for too long —whether it’s from childhood, a divorce, sudden loss, or another painful experience that left a mark—and it’s affecting your relationships, work, and overall vibe. You want to feel more joy and connect genuinely with yourself and others, getting out of your head and into the present moment. The longer you carry this, the heavier it gets. You deserve to feel lighter, to heal, and to finally move forward—now, not later. I want that for you!

I help clients find meaning, connection, clarity, and purpose. I am particularly well suited to working with clients amid life transitions, such as career changes, marriage and divorce, having or launching children, recovery from addiction, aging, and loss, as well as couples in distressed relationships. I aim to be fully present for clients, offering curiosity, careful listening, non-judgment, and authenticity. My approach is collaborative, honoring clients’ beliefs, emotions, and experiences as valid and true and recognizing them as the ultimate authority on the changes they seek.

My experience spans the developmental spectrum from 4 to older adults ranging from divorce adjustment, school issues, and social concerns for children, to depression/anxiety, bereavement, life transitions, etc.
We all find ourselves in circumstances at one time or another that call for adjusting to change or making decisions, whether it's charting a path through grief and loss, developmental transitions, job loss, recovering from trauma or the challenges of parenting. Therapy can be helpful in sorting through confusing thoughts and feelings, gaining insight, establishing a course of action amongst different choices, and building confidence through experiencing a deeper understanding of yourself, all in the context of a caring relationship.

I am also interested in working with people who struggle with life transitions including career changes, relocation, divorce, mid-life crises, grief and loss.
As an immigrant, I understand that life is a journey and as part of that we encounter countless challenges. Going through difficult times and learning to cope with them are opportunities to become wiser and more mindful. However, life challenges can be daunting and hard to overcome. I believe that therapy can help you make sense of your circumstances and cultivate insights and awareness so that you can change and grow. I work with adults 18 and older with an emphasis on mindfulness, attachment-based and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approaches.

Life is hard. We are going too fast in too many directions, and we haven't had time to heal from things that are still hurting us. Divorce, peer issues, relationship problems, family dynamics, stress, and just being human is HARD. I have learned that what people often need is to tell their stories from a safe place and have someone truly hear them and see them. I want to honor your story. Life is messy. Let's talk.

However, because people are complex creatures who rarely struggle with just one thing, I have worked with folks that are navigating everything from divorce to faith deconstruction, from DID to OCD, from dating woes to losing a loved one - and beyond.
Imagine going through life being able to – emotionally, relationally, physically, truly – trust your gut. Therapy is an opportunity to learn how to do just that. My clients come from all walks of life, but they usually begin therapy with some version of the same core feeling: it’s all just too much. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed in daily life, navigating complicated relationships, wanting to heal your relationship with food or your body, or (re)discovering who you are – you're here because you need some support and you're daring to imagine that you deserve it. And you do!
