A Space For Self-Actualized Growth and Change

About Me

I am a WA state licensed Couple and Family Therapist specializing in anxiety, sexuality, and relationships. I work with adults across the lifespan and adolescents 12+.

I believe our health and well-being are deeply connected to our relationships and sense of self-worth. While we value authentic connection, many of us aren’t taught how to build and sustain healthy relationships—with others or with ourselves. I work with clients to change unhelpful and self-defeating patterns and develop the skills needed for more fulfilling relationships and a stronger sense of self. My work with clients often focuses on emotion regulation, increasing self-attunement, practicing open honest communication, interrupting avoidance and people-pleasing patterns, boundary setting, and working through internal conflicts.

Therapeutic Approach

I integrate evidence-based practices with my systemic couple and family therapy training to support clients in their change process. Modalities I draw from include:

  • The Developmental Model, which integrates attachment, differentiation, and neuroscience

  • Internal Family Systems

  • The Gottman Method

  • Narrative Therapy

  • Gestalt Therapy

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

  • Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

My training in sex therapy supports open, affirming conversations about sexuality, identity, and pleasure. Some clients arrive with specific sex-related concerns, while others are still exploring how to understand their experiences and identity. Wherever you are in that journey, therapy can be a safe, non-judgmental space to learn about yourself and build a more authentic relationship with your body and sexuality.
