Telehealth Therapy in Washington State
Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, burned out, or exhausted from trying to hold everything together.
You might understand why you feel the way you do but still struggle to change the patterns you keep getting stuck in. Maybe anxiety and self-criticism take up more space than you’d like, you’re constantly trying to meet other people’s expectations, or you’re figuring out who you are underneath years of masking and people-pleasing.
You don’t have to have everything figured out before coming to therapy.
I offer individual telehealth counseling for adults and teens throughout Washington State. Together, we can make space for what you’re experiencing, understand the patterns that are keeping you stuck, and explore ways of moving toward a life that feels more manageable and more like your own.
What can we work on?
There isn’t one particular problem you need to have to come to counseling.
You might be looking for support with:
Anxiety and emotional overwhelm
Depression and feeling stuck
Burnout
Perfectionism and self-criticism
People-pleasing and boundaries
Neurodivergent masking
Identity and self-exploration
Difficulty identifying or expressing emotions
Relationships and communication
Life transitions
Trauma and difficult past experiences
Building a life that feels more aligned with your values
Sometimes these experiences overlap. You don’t need to decide which one is the “real” reason you’re struggling before we start.
What Does Therapy With Me Look Like?
I approach counseling collaboratively. I’m not here to tell you who you should be or hand you a list of things you’re doing wrong.
Instead, we’ll get curious together about what you’re experiencing, what has shaped the ways you cope, what is and isn’t working for you now, and what you want your life to look like moving forward.
That might involve learning new ways to respond to difficult thoughts and emotions, understanding your needs and boundaries, exploring patterns in relationships, or making room for parts of yourself that you’ve learned to criticize or hide.
Therapy also doesn’t have to look exactly the same every week. Some sessions may involve deeper reflection, while others might be more practical, creative, or focused on getting through something difficult happening right now.
A Therapy Approach That Considers the Bigger Picture
I take a collaborative, person-centered, and uniquely tailored approach to best meet your needs. I strive to create a space where you can feel supported, understood, and able to show up as your authentic self. My work is trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming, queer-affirming, anti-racist, anti-ableist, and grounded in feminist values.
My work integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and feminist therapy. I support clients in exploring emotions, building self-understanding, coping with difficult thoughts and feelings, and reconnecting with what matters most to them. We will also look at the systems and other external factors impacting you and your mental health.
LGBTQIA+ and Neurodivergent-Affirming Counseling
You shouldn’t have to spend your therapy session teaching your therapist the basics of your identity—or working toward someone else’s idea of what “normal” should look like.
I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent clients, including people exploring their gender, sexuality, or neurodivergence for the first time.
If these parts of your experience are important to what brings you to therapy, we can explore them. If they aren’t, they don’t have to become the focus simply because they're part of who you are.
What If Talking Isn’t Always Enough?
You don’t have to find the perfect words for everything you experience.
As an art therapist, I can incorporate drawing, painting, collage, writing, digital art, and other forms of creative expression into counseling when they feel useful to you.
Art therapy is completely optional. You might make art frequently, occasionally, or not at all. We can figure out together what ways of participating in therapy feel most comfortable and helpful for you.
