Welcome! I am an experienced psychotherapist with a strong educational background, a Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology, and a master's degree in forensic psychology. I have over 20 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have successfully assisted individuals from diverse backgrounds, including adults, families, children, military families, and those who have severe mental illness, in navigating emotional challenges and enhancing their overall well-being.

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.
Are you looking for a cheerleader or a therapist who is willing to challenge you directly? My background in competitive athletics, therapeutics, and sport psychology all contribute to how I approach clients.
I have a background in youth and young adults ages 10-24 with trauma. I have worked with military adult populations for 6 years. I have 10 years experience in sport psychology, working with athletes and their parents. I specialize in LGBTQ+, and identify as gay.
I truly believe in everyone finding the RIGHT fit therapist. Feel free to contact me and let's find out, together, if this could be a great fit.
I'm a trilingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor (Portuguese & Spanish). I earned my BA in Psychology from the University of Washington and a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwest University. I provide therapy services in-person and via telehealth to individuals (18+) struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma issues, OCD, DID, self-esteem, self-harm, and grief and loss.

I believe in our capacity to adapt, grow, love, grieve, overcome & thrive. Stressful events, trauma, loss, illness & change can overwhelm our ability to cope. We become stuck. We protect ourselves to avoid ever feeling that pain again. Solutions that once worked become part of the problem. When the wound is triggered, we experience pain & distorted ways of thinking. In therapy, we journey together to uncover & remove blocks to healing, transforming pain & loss into meaning, awareness & choice.
Where did you first learn what "enough" was? A hard truth is: what we fear is what we become. As a Christian + licensed therapist, and certified trauma professional, I help people move past trauma, anxiety, perfectionism, depression, insecurity, regret, rumination, and avoidance.
Now more than ever, we all feel like we have so much to lose when we try to heal. But it doesn’t have to feel like this. I seek to encourage clients to understand who they are beyond their diagnosis, understand their options, and how to move forward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Washington
Searching for therapists in Washington starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across the state, therapy needs and available therapists can vary between urban and rural areas. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions. As you compare Washington therapists, look for specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Location and format can also shape your search. If you live near Seattle, Spokane, or Tacoma, you may have more in-person options nearby, while virtual therapy can expand access across other parts of Washington. Consider whether you prefer meeting in an office, meeting virtually, or having both options available. It can also help to compare appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can give you a clearer sense of each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
The cost of therapy in Washington can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who take insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose from therapists accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with 70+ insurance plans. You can browse therapists, review profiles, check your coverage, and book directly when you’re ready.
