Relationships can be some of the most meaningful parts of our lives, but they can also be where we experience the greatest frustration, uncertainty, and disconnection. You may find yourself struggling to communicate what you feel, repeating patterns that create distance in your relationships, or wondering why the people closest to you don't seem to understand you.
Sometimes the challenge is less about knowing something needs to change and more about understanding what is happening beneath the surface.
I help individuals and couples explore these experiences with curiosity, compassion, and honesty. Together, we can better understand the emotions, expectations, and relationship patterns that shape your experiences and develop new ways of connecting with yourself and the people who matter most.
I offer individual and couples therapy through telehealth throughout Washington State.
My Approach to Therapy
I believe meaningful change happens when we begin to understand ourselves and our relationships with greater depth and compassion.
Many of the patterns that create difficulties in our lives developed for understandable reasons. We may have learned to avoid conflict, keep difficult emotions to ourselves, prioritize others' needs, or protect ourselves by withdrawing when relationships become challenging.
Although these responses may have once served us, they can eventually interfere with the connection and intimacy we want.
My approach is collaborative, supportive, and grounded in curiosity. Rather than focusing only on changing behaviors, I help clients explore the emotions, experiences, and beliefs that contribute to their struggles.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than a decade working as a registered nurse, including in emergency and surgical settings. That experience shaped my appreciation for the ways stress, uncertainty, vulnerability, and demanding responsibilities affect individuals and relationships.
I bring this perspective into therapy, recognizing that emotional well-being, physical experiences, relationships, and the pressures of everyday life are deeply connected.
My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being honest, exploring difficult experiences, and developing a greater understanding of yourself and others.
Areas of Focus
Men's Therapy
Many men grow up receiving messages about what it means to be strong, capable, independent, and emotionally resilient. These expectations can make it difficult to recognize personal needs, express vulnerability, ask for support, or communicate openly in relationships.
You may find yourself feeling disconnected from your emotions, struggling to express what you need, experiencing conflict with a partner, or carrying pressures that seem difficult to share with others.
Men's therapy offers an opportunity to explore these experiences without judgment or expectations about who you should be.
Together, we can examine how your experiences and beliefs about masculinity have shaped your relationships, emotional responses, and sense of identity. Our work may focus on developing emotional awareness, improving communication, navigating stress, strengthening relationships, and finding ways of living that feel more authentic and fulfilling.
You don't need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Sometimes the desire to understand yourself more deeply or build more meaningful connections is reason enough to begin.

Begin With a Conversation
Finding a therapist who feels like a good fit is an important part of beginning therapy.
A complimentary consultation gives us an opportunity to talk about what brings you to therapy, answer your questions, and explore whether working together feels right for you.
Whether you're seeking greater self-understanding, stronger relationships, or support navigating a difficult season of life, I welcome the opportunity to connect.
