Hello! I specialize in helping folks who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, and the effects of trauma. As someone who has struggled with a chronic illness, I would especially like to support others who are also suffering from chronic illnesses that may have greatly impacted their mental health and wellbeing.

My healing work is influenced by person-centered therapy (talk therapy), somatic therapy (mind-body connection), EMDR, and acceptance and commitment therapy (cognitive/mindfulness). I take a collaborative, culturally-sensitive, and trauma-informed approach to counseling. My goal for therapy is to create an open and nonjudgmental environment, where you can feel safe to speak your mind. I hope to emphasize the strengths and resources that you already possess in order to help you thrive.

I received a PhD in Psychology and Neuroscience from Princeton University in 2010. I received an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Antioch University Seattle in 2024 and a certificate in Trauma Counseling as part of my counseling specialization. I may incorporate my knowledge about stress, trauma, and the brain into our work together, depending on your particular needs and challenges.

I am available to see individual adult (18+) clients in-person twice a week (Thursdays/Saturdays) in my Queen Anne office. I am also available online Monday- Friday, 8 am- 5 pm.

If you think my work and skill set could help you, please reach out!
