Our therapists provide life coaching in Seattle, WA

I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 6 years of experience supporting individuals navigating trauma, attachment wounds, low self-esteem, and identity exploration. I believe my clients are the experts in their own lives and focus on building meaning, self-awareness, and resilience. I am especially committed to providing affirming, person-centered care to LGBTQ+ clients, including queer and trans individuals.

I earned my Master of Science in counseling and clinical mental health counseling from the University of Phoenix. My approach integrates person-centered, trauma-informed, and strength-based therapy. I combine clinical expertise with lived experience to help clients develop healthy coping strategies and deeper self-understanding.

If you are working through trauma, identity questions, or relationship challenges, I am here to provide a safe, affirming space where you can heal and grow. Together, we will build practical tools and insight to help you move toward a fuller, more authentic life.

Therapy is a collaborative space where we can begin to unpack big feelings, navigate difficult emotions, and work through life's challenging experiences. If you're feeling stuck, numb, overwhelmed, or weighed down by pain, you're not alone. I am a licensed clinical social worker with a master's degree from the University of Michigan and over 12 years of experience. I take a holistic approach to supporting individuals through life transitions, grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, and emotional distress. I believe deeply that your voice matters—and that you matter. 

In our first session, my focus is on getting to know you and creating space for you to share your story. I'm intentional about fostering warmth, support, accountability, and partnership. My approach is integrative and evidence-based, incorporating CBT, DBT, solution-focused techniques, and somatic interventions. 

Our work together will be collaborative and tailored to your evolving needs—because growth is not linear, and it's okay for plans to change as you do. Your story matters. I'm here to listen, support, and gently challenge you along the way.

I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 7 years of experience supporting teens, adults, parents, and families. I specialize in helping clients navigate academic stress, peer pressure, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidal ideation. I take a holistic approach to care, recognizing the connection between the mind and body and how multiple factors influence a person’s overall well-being.

I earned my master’s in psychology from Seattle University. My clinical approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based practices, and person-centered therapy, with influences from existential-phenomenological theory. I tailor treatment to each client’s lived experience and unique needs.

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) currently seeing clients in Virginia and Washington. I started my career in 2020 and have experience working with adolescents and adults seeking help with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, loss, mood disorders, stress management, and substance use. I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Missouri Western State University in my hometown of Saint Joseph, Missouri, and my Master’s degree in Counselor Education from Radford University in Radford, Virginia.

In my practice, I use person-centered, strengths-based, and solution-focused approaches, with the understanding that each person’s experiences are unique. I strive to work collaboratively with my clients, creating a personalized environment that feels comfortable and supportive.

Building trusting relationships is central to my practice. I work to provide a safe, open, and collaborative space where clients can set and achieve meaningful goals.

I have been in the helping profession for over 25 years and have worked in many different roles during that time. I have worked with children to older adults and all ages in between. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), and have worked with those with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, as well as Bipolar disorder. I prefer to use a client centered approach, in which we would work collaboratively to determine the best course to take in addressing your needs and concerns and helping to decrease problem symptoms. 

I tend to lean towards the use of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in recognizing that the mind has a great effect on one's ability to change behaviors and habits. I also utilize Motivational Interviewing (MI) in an effort to direct and inspire you to realize and bring about change in your own life. 

I would be honored to help you work through what you've been carrying and find greater clarity. I bring care and understanding to everyone I work with — and I want you to know that change is possible, including changes you may not have realized you needed yet. Take the next step and schedule a session today to start taking an active role in your healing.
