Therapy in Washington

As a therapist offering online therapy throughout Washington State, I work with individuals and couples in Seattle, the surrounding metro area, and rural communities. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, burnout, relationship issues, or seasonal depression, I provide supportive, culturally responsive care to help you feel more grounded and connected.

I often see Washington clients who want help with:

LGBTQIA+ Identity
Relationship Issues
Grief + Loss
Burnout + Work Stress
Eco-Anxiety
Seasonal Affective Disorder
Seasonal Depression
Nature Oriented Mindfulness

My Approach to LGBTQIA+ Affirming Therapy

Living as your authentic self in a world that doesn’t always affirm you can be exhausting. I offer LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy in Washington that centers your lived experience and supports you in navigating identity exploration, coming out, relationships, family dynamics, and mental health.

Whether you’re questioning your gender or sexuality, processing discrimination, or simply looking for a space where you don’t have to explain yourself, this is a place where you are fully seen and respected. My role is to support your healing and self trust, not to question or pathologize who you are. Together, we can explore what authenticity, safety, and joy look like for you.

My Approach to Washington Seasonal Depression

In Washington, the long winters and gray skies can take a real toll on mental health. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is more than just feeling down, it can impact your motivation, relationships, sleep, and self worth. Therapy for seasonal depression can help you develop realistic, personalized strategies to support your mood and overall wellbeing during the darker months.

My approach to SAD includes understanding your emotional patterns, identifying ways to regulate your nervous system, and integrating tools like light exposure, movement, and social connection. You're not weak for feeling this way. Together, we’ll create a plan that works with your body and lifestyle, not against it.

My Approach to Therapy for Climate Anxiety + Mindfulness Practices

Living in the Pacific Northwest, it’s near impossible not to feel a deep connection to nature, and with that, a growing sense of grief, helplessness, or anxiety about climate change. If you find yourself overwhelmed by environmental concerns or emotionally impacted by the state of the planet, you’re not alone. These feelings, often referred to as climate anxiety or eco-distress, are valid and increasingly common.

Therapy that incorporates nature oriented mindfulness can be a powerful way to process these emotions while reconnecting to what grounds you. My approach invites you to slow down, deepen your awareness of the natural world, and build inner resilience through present moment practices. We might explore how nature can support your nervous system, reflect on the interconnectedness of life, or even create small, meaningful rituals for grief and hope.

Together, we’ll create space for your emotions without getting stuck in paralysis or despair, and find ways to stay engaged, present, and connected in a changing world.

My Approach to Grief Counseling

Grief is not a linear process. It can come in waves, linger longer than expected, or reshape your entire identity. Whether you're grieving the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, or a major life transition, therapy offers space to process your pain without judgment or pressure to “move on.”

My approach to grief is compassionate and non rushed. I hold space for the full spectrum of emotions, sadness, anger, guilt, even numbness, while helping you find your own way through. I also work with clients navigating complex or complicated grief, including losses that aren't always acknowledged or understood by others. Healing doesn't mean forgetting. It means making space for what you’ve lost while slowly reconnecting with life in a way that honors your experience.

My Approach to Therapy for Burnout + Job Related Stress

Burnout isn’t just about being tired, it’s a whole body response to chronic stress, emotional exhaustion, and the feeling that you can’t keep up or meet expectations, no matter how hard you try. Whether you’re a high achieving professional, a caregiver, or navigating hustle culture in tech or healthcare, burnout can leave you feeling numb, anxious, or disconnected from your sense of purpose.

My approach to work stress and burnout includes identifying the root causes, not just the symptoms, so you can start to reclaim your energy, boundaries, and clarity. We’ll explore how perfectionism, people pleasing, or systems of oppression (like racism, sexism, or capitalism) may be contributing to your exhaustion. I especially enjoy working with first generation professionals who are carrying invisible pressures and expectations while trying to create something different.

I work with clients to explore the root of chronic stress, clarify their boundaries, and unlearn the idea that rest must be earned. As a culturally responsive therapist, I understand that career stress doesn’t happen in a vacuum, especially for those who are paving new paths for their families or working in environments where they feel unseen. Together, we’ll name what’s not working, build tools for sustainable change, and work toward healing that doesn’t depend on productivity.

In therapy, we’ll work to reestablish balance, reimagine success on your terms, and build sustainable practices for work and life. Burnout is not a personal failure, it's a signal that something needs to shift, and you don’t have to navigate that shift alone.
