Teletherapy for Seattle, WA

Life presents many challenges, and with busy schedules, people often forget to take care of themselves and attend to their needs. Lacking the necessary support to overcome these challenges can leave individuals feeling lost, depressed, anxious, angry, and stuck. It is important to recognize that everyone is worthy of happiness and deserves to feel fulfilled in their relationships.

I have worked extensively with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, chronic pain, chronic illness, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, difficult life transitions, grief, burnout, and overwhelm. I believe discovering our authentic self, landing safely back in our body, finding the deeper meanings underneath our current symptoms, releasing patterns that no longer serve us, and identifying our fears, hopes and desires can help us find a renewed sense of peace and purpose in our life.

As a somatic therapist, I help clients tend to psychological struggles like anxiety, depression, and trauma by addressing the unconscious embodied instincts that drive our conscious thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. In session, we bring awareness to the ways the nervous system’s stress response can shape our lives and we collaborate to practice new felt experiences of safety, belonging, power, and selfhood. We might do so by following physical sensation, movement impulses, imagery, or breath. As new nervous system patterns take hold in our bodies, we gain more access to resilience, ease, vitality, and connection in our daily lives.

Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse populations in various treatment settings. I have extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, eating disorders, relationship conflicts, and trauma. As a therapist, I strive to understand clients' unique needs and strengths. The therapeutic alliance I have with clients is foundational to our work together and in many ways guides the counseling process.

I believe you will find counseling it to be an integral and valuable part of your life journey in seeking out the changes and goals you desire. In sessions, I provide a safe and trusting environment, will empower you to discover unused resources and strengths and will sift through what areas are ineffective and need changing.

I work with a diversity of adults experiencing relationship issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and life transitions. Are you feeling stuck in in a pattern but unsure how to break out of it? Are you struggling to find a sense of balance or hope, navigating life transition, feeling afraid to engage in activities you once enjoyed? You may be experiencing self-judgment, low self-worth, shame, or just seeking change. These are common issues that bring people to therapy, and can be an opportunity for deeper growth and acceptance. When you feel seen and heard in therapy, deep healing is possible.

After struggling through my formative years with no therapeutic support, I became the person I wish that I had at that age: someone who would see and accept me as I am while supporting me to make the things that I wanted to be better. I work with neurodivergent adults, am LGBTQIA+ affirming, and work well with neurodiverse folx aged 13-35 addressing depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem, goal-setting, and life transition issues. If you have something in your life that you would like to improve, I'm here to help you do it. I will love and accept you for who you are while supporting you to make the changes you would like.

I'm accepting new weekly clients at a 10% discounted rate for the month of August. Lock in at this lower rate now! As a Transpersonal Psychotherapist I offer mental, physical, social, emotional, and spiritual support. I teach you to Love & Accept your Self unconditionally. Transpersonal psychology emphasizes the importance of a healthy spirit in healing and wholeness. I help you shift your perspectives so that life begins to work for you instead of against you.

I help you heal the hurt of traumatic childhoods, abusive relationships, or the lingering pain of traumatic events; the feeling of "not enough-ness", "having to prove my worth", or "settling for less". I help you move on from hurtful relationships or choosing "the wrong partner" so you can achieve a loving partnership. I help you find yourself again. I help you shed your old skin. I work to bring freedom from current PTSD, chronic PTSD, "small" or "big" traumas, anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. I also welcome open relationships, ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, kink, and sex-positivity for individual and couples counseling.

Are you struggling with relentless stress, anxiety, and/or depression? Maybe you find yourself isolating from others, feeling constantly triggered, or worried your life feels out of control. Whether you’ve experienced an old or recent trauma, loss of a loved one or pet, relationship betrayal or career stress, or you simply feel stuck and yearn to become your best self, I am glad you reached out. My hope is to create a place where you can come completely and authentically as you are, where the unspeakable can be spoken, and for you to be met with compassion and non-judgement.

Do you struggle with work stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trauma/PTSD, or chronic health issues? I'm happy to help you find the peace you deserve if you are ready to put in the work to put these issues behind you once and for all.

I believe that all humans deserve to live a life that gives them personal fulfillment, peace, and more joy than hardship. I can help you work through life transitions, trauma, and all of the fear, anxiety, depression, and big emotions that come with them. I tend towards practices of mindfulness, grounding, acceptance, and nature- focused therapies, but my background is in biology, so I also tend to be pragmatic, evidence-focused, and like to help you understand the "why" of the practice as you take it on.

From your earliest memory until now, there have been countless versions of you. You are not a fixed, autonomous entity consistent across time, but rather fluid and continuously changing. In each new moment you have the opportunity to create who you want to be in the next. Sometimes in these moments, however, you might begin to define yourself, others, or the world in a way that impairs mental health. These shifting perspectives may also be particularly evident in your most intimate relationships, leading to patterns or cycles that can be hard to break. As a therapist, I'm interested in root causes rather than treating symptoms.
