You're struggling with past traumas. Maybe you don't even realize that a lot of your frustration, anxiety and depression and current struggles are linked to past traumas. It can be overwhelming dealing with intense emotions and identify the why behind it to change your life. I would love to work with you and address some of the emotions and struggles that you have been dealing with.

I am a Seattle based Art and Psycho-Therapist, serving Adults through a means of verbal and visual expression. I work to explore each clients experiences through creative expression, not only as an emotional outlet but also as a window into other parts of the self and a way to create meaningful and lasting change. I work to conduct therapy in a means which makes the client feel heard and safe to explore their inner experience. Diving into memories and behaviors which no longer serve us can be uncomfortable work. Knowing this, I find the therapeutic relationship to be imperative to the foundation of making change.

With my clients, I utilize a client-centered approach, which highlights the client as the expert in their life. While creating a warm and compassionate therapeutic environment, I follow my client's lead in what they would like out of therapy. The most effective therapeutic spaces are also collaborative ones, those in which people are encouraged to cultivate a curiosity about their lives and investigate their place within it. If we work together, we will find the balance between comfort and a healthy amount of challenge.

During our lives, we encounter experiences that can move us away from a direct connection to ourselves. Influences from family, friends, peers, jobs, and the greater culture can affect how we view and express ourselves. We can become conditioned to thinking, feeling and behaving in a way that is incompatible with who we really are and what we want in our lives. This compromises our ability to value our unique identity and to express and apply ourselves, and our strengths. I will help you to identify, understand and remove barriers that are keeping you from realizing your fullest potential. I offer Telehealth only in California.

Life is often difficult, and it can be a lonely experience trying to understand what has happened in your life, who you are, and who you are becoming. Experiences (historical and current) in life build up over time and can leave you feeling stuck in thought patterns, cycles, and in a life that might be less than you'd hoped for. The contrast between the desires inside you and the experience of your actual life can be crushing. Therapy can help as we tend together to the spaces in you that need tending and look more closely at your experiences.

Sometimes life feels too big, too complex, and too messy to get your head around. If you're ready to make changes in your life, but aren't sure where to start, I can help you develop a plan to make it happen. I can support you in your desire to stop destructive behaviors and create new, healthier ways of living. We go at a pace that is comfortable for you, taking on problems one-at-a-time. Together we tackle the things that are keeping you from the kind of life you want to live.

Counseling is a space where we get to focus on helping you move towards a life that is more fulfilling, meaningful, and connected. I work with people struggling with anxious thoughts, depression, or challenging relationships. Some are trying to navigate dating, intimacy, and partnership. Some have experienced spiritual abuse or are coming out of religious systems that have left them confused and even traumatized. Some of the people I work with are unpacking their past and trying to be free of difficult patterns. Many people are just stuck and want some help figuring out why. Counseling helps you get unstuck.

I work with those who struggle with anger. Often times the anger is brought on by unmet expectations and merely a symptom of deeper issues under the surface. It's my job to metaphorically stand in a place you can not see, and point you in the right direction as to the cause of what is contributing to the anger. By doing so, you can receive insight that will enrich your life and change it for the better.

My patients are usually hard working adults who have run into some tough times or are experiencing difficult emotional issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and addictions. I focus on using a strengths-based and harm reduction approach, which views each person as an individual with unique strengths and challenges. Using this approach values the person and facilitates a customized treatment plan for the individual. My role is not to judge you or your behaviors, but to act as an independent consultant for improving your mental well-being and quality of life.

I am client centered in my approach. I work with individuals, late adolescents, and families. The foundation of our work will be that of mutual respect and clear expectations. I view the counseling relationship as a collaborative process and believe the role of a therapist can be likened to that of a "coach," one who challenges old ineffective behaviors and beliefs. I provide a confidential and supportive environment for you to share your concerns, and goals. Through dialogue and deep listening, new choices and next steps will be brought to light.
