Welcome...

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Seattle, Washington, working with clients who are motivated to improve important relationships in their lives, including the relationship with self. If you are searching for a therapist who will tell you the truth with compassion, please reach out, because we are probably a good match. My style is straightforward, and I have a talent for identifying underlying issues quickly. Every case is different, but some clients find that short-term therapy is effective with my approach.

I am a Certified Brainspotting Therapist and have specialized training for treating developmental trauma with this modality. Brainspotting may succeed in cases where talk therapy has not produced desired results. If you are experiencing emotional traumas or "stuck places," Brainspotting is often highly effective for achieving resolution. I offer weekend Brainspotting intensives for clients interested in rapid progress.

​

In my practice, therapy is individualized, collaborative, and client-centered. I believe that compassionate exploration and inquiry create the foundation for change. I take my role as therapist seriously. I have done my own emotional work and truly enjoy walking with others on this human journey. You are a unique individual, and I will strive to know you as a person, including aspects of your identity that affect your experiences in society.

​

Successful therapy begins with a trusting therapist-client relationship. I offer a free 20-minute phone or video consultation for you to ask questions and discuss your needs for therapy. Please contact me to schedule your time. I look forward to hearing from you to explore how we can work together to improve your life and relationships.
