Online in Washington
(Online Only)
At times, life can feel heavy, uncertain, or disconnected from the sense of direction we long for. In those moments, it can be difficult to believe that change is possible, and you don’t have to navigate that experience alone. I support individuals facing depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem challenges, relationship concerns, existential questions, cultural stressors, neurodivergence, and other emotional difficulties. I view therapy as a collaborative space where new understanding can emerge, inner resources can be rediscovered, and hope can slowly take shape again. Within a compassionate and attuned relationship, growth can unfold in ways that honor who you are and the pace that feels right for you.
Reaching out for therapy can feel like a vulnerable step, yet it is also a meaningful investment in yourself. You don’t need perfect words or certainty to begin — simply showing up is enough. When you feel ready, I would welcome the opportunity to work alongside you as you move toward greater clarity, connection, and a life that feels more aligned with what matters to you.

Treatment Approach
- Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) Builds skills in self-kindness and compassion toward others. It is especially helpful for people who struggle with shame or self-criticism.
- Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
- Existential / Humanistic Therapy Encourages people to explore meaning, freedom, and authenticity in their lives. It focuses on personal growth and living in alignment with one’s values.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) A structured therapy that uses guided eye movements to help process traumatic memories. It is widely recognized for treating PTSD and trauma-related conditions.
- Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian) Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity. It provides a safe space for self-discovery and growth.
Approach Description: My work is grounded in a person-centered foundation, where I approach you with openness, respect, and genuine interest in your unique experience. I incorporate existential themes and EMDR into our work, alongside additional approaches when they can support your goals. I view therapy as a shared process and strive to foster an environment where you feel heard, valued, and encouraged as you rediscover your inner resources and explore new possibilities for growth.
