Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally drained? You're not alone—and you don't have to navigate it alone. With many years in the mental health field, I offer a compassionate and personalized approach to therapy, with a focus on helping individuals manage anxiety, depression and helping with self esteem issues. I began my career in community mental health, where I gained deep insight into the challenges people face and the strength it takes to seek help.
I enjoy learning about ways we can change and understand our human existence. We are thinking, feeling and doing beings. Cognitive behavioral therapy provides a framework to identify ways to do it differently and better. Trauma treatment modalities like EMDR may support processing neurological and physiological reactions and being able to feel secure and safe while staying connected to others more fully. Our story is just that; we write it and edit it. We get to choose the chapters and path of our lives, through the unknowns, mysteries and celebrations.
Some people arrive feeling mentally exhausted—like their mind is running a marathon they never signed up for. Maybe anxiety keeps you on edge, depression has drained your motivation, or ADHD makes everyday tasks feel harder than they should. Whatever brought you here, my role is simple: help you sort through the noise and find a clearer path forward. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and life transitions, creating a space where you can talk openly, think clearly, and begin making meaningful changes.

In our work together, I’ll give you practical tools to navigate stress, anxiety, grief, or major life transitions. We’ll focus on reframing self-defeating thoughts, building self-esteem, and practicing mindful compassion so you can feel more grounded and empowered in your daily life.
With over 30 years as a Transformational Therapist, I draw from Breathwork, Guided Imagery, Stress-Release techniques, Centering practices, Energy Work, Therapeutic Movement, and Pattern Interrupts. For those open to it, I also offer Medicine Wheel work and Sacred Card readings for deeper insight.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy, and I'm deeply passionate about supporting women through life’s major transitions- especially perimenopause and menopause.
Perimenopause is a common experience, yet so many women feel entirely unprepared for how disruptive symptoms such as mood shifts, brain fog and insomnia can be. Infertility, post-partum adjustments and parenting can also present unique challenges. My goal is to help you move through these transitions with growth, empowerment and vibrancy.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Bellevue
Looking for therapists in Bellevue starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare Bellevue therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and help people work toward care goals.
Bellevue has therapists across areas like Downtown, Factoria, Crossroads, and nearby communities, but local appointment times may vary by specialty and schedule. Virtual therapy can expand your options if you want more flexibility, while in-person therapy may work well if an office location fits your routine. To narrow your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare therapy style, session format, and fit.
Therapy in Bellevue can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway makes it easier to find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly. You can browse therapists in Bellevue, review bios, and choose a therapist who matches your needs, schedule, and coverage.
