Hello! I help people who are feeling stuck and overwhelmed find ways to move forward and manage the ups/downs of life more effectively.

Therapist in Seattle, WA

About My Clients

Are you feeling stuck, stressed, or overwhelmed? Maybe you're feeling anxious, unhappy in your relationships, or unfulfilled. I work with people struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and unresolved trauma. Many of my clients are also neurodivergent, diagnosed in adulthood.

My Background and Approach

I’m here to help you better navigate challenges without becoming overwhelmed, move beyond limiting beliefs, show up more fully in your relationships, and feel more connected to yourself again. Together, we’ll explore the patterns- thoughts, emotions, reactions, and body sensations that may be keeping you stuck. My approach is integrative, I bring a psychodynamic understanding and use EMDR, IFS/parts work, and Polyvagal Theory to get to the root of the issues. These approaches allow us to work with nervous system reactions, shift deeply held patterns, and access parts of you that might be stuck in survival mode. We'll also work on coping strategies using mindfulness and CBT.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I’m optimistic about your ability to change because I trust in your inner wisdom, even if right now it feels buried under anxiety, imposter syndrome, or discouragement. I think you can move beyond what is keeping you stuck and develop coping strategies to deal with the ups/downs of life. I get that each individual's story is unique and I will work hard to understand you and your values/priorities so that we can define and achieve your therapy goals.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
