I've been journaling every single day for over ten years. Not because anyone told me to, but because writing is how I understand what's happening inside me. I bring that same spirit into the therapy room: the belief that the stories we tell about ourselves really matter, and that we can write new chapters.

I work with children age 7+, teenagers, adults, couples, and families. Anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles show up across almost every age group I work with. For little ones, I incorporate play therapy because play is how kids make sense of things they can't yet put into words. For teenagers, I'm drawn to Narrative Therapy, helping them figure out who they actually are versus who everyone else expects them to be. For adults and couples, we look at the patterns and dynamics that keep repeating and start to shift them.

My approach is integrative. I draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, ACT, and Solution Focused Therapy, adapting as we go based on what you actually need. I'm trained in working with LGBTQIA2S+ and queer communities, neurodivergent individuals, and parent child relationships. Healing isn't linear, and I don't expect it to be.

I earned my Master of Arts in Couples and Family Therapy from Seattle University.

Outside of sessions, I'm usually painting abstract art, going to live shows, or cuddling my two cats while playing Stardew Valley. I also try new vegan recipes constantly, with varying degrees of success.

If you're thinking about taking that first step, I'd love to hear from you.
