About My Clients

I am a non-judgmental, empathetic, client-centered therapist who works with individuals of all ages, couples, families, and groups. My hope is to create a space for you to feel truly safe and supported while having your multilayered experiences honored, validated, and understood.

My Background and Approach

My approach to therapy is multi-disciplinary, combining psychodynamic techniques, attachment-based, and trauma-informed therapy. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) & Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT). Prior to receiving my MA in Clinical Psychology, I received a degree in Cultural Anthropology from the Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, where I focused my research on immigration policy, the dismantling of racism/ethnophobia, feminist theory & LGBTQI+ affirmative social action. Leading up to my work in the social sciences, I worked as an artist and designer, and continue to enjoy weaving concepts around the creative process into my work with clients therapeutically when fitting. The best way to set up a consultation is to send me an email with your availability, and then we can go from there. I look forward to hearing from you!
