As a clinician and a person, it’s important that the therapy is working. I also try to bring humor to session and a little of myself to the room. I feel it’s important to be authentic to the process.
I am a licensed clinical social worker who has been practicing for over 25 years. After getting my Masters in Social Work in 2000, I spent many years working in medical social work, helping people who were living with chronic health conditions. I also have worked in hospice and am able to provide support with grief and loss, as well as emotional support for family caregivers. I offer a safe space to process difficult emotions, as well as stress reduction through mindfulness.

I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adolescents, adults, and older adults. My practice integrates thoughtful medication management with supportive psychotherapy, lifestyle strategies, and collaborative care to help you feel heard, informed, and empowered in your treatment.
Mental health has been a deeply personal passion of mine for most of my life — growing up with a family history of mental health challenges gave me an early understanding of how much the right support can change someone's life. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, and depression, and I work with many clients who come to me feeling anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, and unsure of where to turn. What sets me apart is that I genuinely listen — not just to what you're saying, but to what's beneath it. Outside of my work, you can find me hiking, spending time at the beach, or getting lost in music, all of which remind me of the importance of balance and restoration, values I bring into my practice every day.

After seven years as a psychiatric nurse, I recently transitioned into a nurse practitioner role, graduating with honors and deepening my commitment to providing thoughtful, compassionate mental health care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Kirkland
Searching for therapists in Kirkland starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, grief, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare Kirkland therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or other forms of counseling in Kirkland.
In a smaller city like Kirkland, local appointment options may vary by neighborhood and schedule. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Washington. Some people prefer an in-person office near Downtown Kirkland, Totem Lake, or Bridle Trails, while others choose virtual sessions for more flexibility. When narrowing your search, check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also help you understand communication style, session structure, and what the therapist focuses on in care.
Therapy in Kirkland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists in Kirkland who take insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready. This makes it easier to find a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and has availability for new patients.
