There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.

Services
I offer individual psychotherapy to adults and adolescents in person or online via Zoom. I am open to working with emotionally mature tweens as well. In general, I do long-term work with clients, which typically requires a commitment of at least 1 session per week. Some people find multiple sessions a week to be very helpful, and I may recommend it depending on the nature of your problem or your own desire for more frequent contact.
Consistent treatment produces faster and longer-lasting results. Having done years of my own work as a client, I understand the financial and personal commitment involved. I take my commitment to you and your mental health very seriously and will work tirelessly on your behalf.
My fee for a 50min session is $225.
Individual Therapy
Family and Couples Therapy
Supporting families and couples in improving communication and building better connection
My approach with families and couples is steady, relational, and grounded in the belief that relationships work best when everyone feels seen and understood. I work with couples, parents and their adult children as well as families with children or teens still in the home together. I help each person slow down enough to notice what’s happening inside — identifying the emotions, assumptions, and intentions that often go unspoken but drive so much of the conflict.
Mentalization-based family therapy (MBTF) has become a meaningful part of my work — a way of helping families and couples understand not just what someone is feeling, but why. When families begin to see each other’s inner worlds with more clarity, communication softens, conflict becomes more manageable, and new patterns of connection emerge. It’s been a privilege to witness these shifts and to support families in building relationships that feel safer, steadier, and more attuned for the long haul. In practice, we will:
Develop emotional awareness and perspective-taking
Interrupt reactive cycles and reduce conflict
Build communication skills rooted in curiosity rather than defensiveness
Understand how stress, trauma, or past experiences shape current interactions
Support parents in mentalizing their children’s internal experiences
Helping children and teens articulate their feelings with more clarity
Creating space for repair, reflection, and new possibilities
My fee for family and couples work is $275 for 60min. sessions and $350 for 75min. sessions. We can decide together what the best fit for your situation is.
Supervision and Consultation
Supporting clinicians in becoming, growing and learning
I've been supervising and training new therapists since 2009, and I find this work deeply rewarding. As a former teacher, I love helping therapists grow their therapeutic minds. I'm an approved clinical supervisor in Washington State, and I hold an unrestricted Washington Mental Health Counselor License I've carried since 2006.
Whether you're a therapist earning hours toward licensure or a fully licensed clinician looking for consultation and a thinking partner, I tailor the work to where you are. Supervision is about more than oversight, it's growth, it's protecting the people in your care, and, where licensure is involved, helping you get ready to practice on your own.
My approach is to support you toward becoming the therapist that is uniquely you. I'll help you think through the transferences and countertransferences in the room, and how to use that material for the benefit of you and your clients. You'll identify your own therapeutic modalities in our work together, and we'll address practical issues like creating and holding the therapeutic frame. My own clinical lens draws heavily on psychodynamic depth work and a mentalization-based frame, which shapes how I supervise as much as how I practice.
My fee is $225 for a 50-minute session. I am available and responsive to your needs outside of our meeting times as well.
