LGBT therapists in Gig Harbor, WA

I work well with anyone who seeks therapy and is ready to work on themselves. I have worked with about every population, culture and age group. Issues that I am best suited to treating include a wide variety of disorders, childhood trauma, addictions, domestic violence, parenting/bonding/interpersonal relationships. I certified in EMDR and expressive arts therapy. I like to offer different forms of expression to my clients in the healing arts. I also give plenty of skill building tools and homework so clients can maximize their progress outside of the weekly sessions. I speak Spanish fluently.

If you're struggling with grief, life changes, the state of the world, or big existential questions, I may be a good fit for you. I have 20 years of experience treating people across the lifespan.

From time to time, we all feel unsure or confused about who we are or would like to become, or feel disconnected, lonely, isolated, or as if we don't fit in. It's natural to look around you and feel a deep sense of anxiety about the past, present, or future. Existential crises are a part of life (especially nowadays!), but you don't have to face them alone.

I have experienced many roles as I begin to edge out of "middle age" (daughter, sister, student, employee, spouse, parent, pet owner, friend, grieving family member, congregant, team player, book-clubber, yogi, etc.), I am more connected than ever to what is important in life and what is true for most people and communities. We work hard, we try to create relationships and joy, we need to play & create, and most of us need some sense of love & belonging, along with a sense of purpose. It is an honor to journey with clients.

I have over 15 years experience supporting people seeking to be their best selves. I work best with people that are looking to end self-defeating behaviors, adopt new ones and sustain them.
