You’re doing okay. Life is mostly ‘working'. But something feels heavy, stuck, or unclear, and you’d like a steady place to talk it through. Maybe it’s a relationship that keeps hitting the same wall, a transition you’re trying to find your footing in, or past experiences that still shape how you show up today. You’re ready for something to shift, even if you’re not sure what that looks like yet.

That’s where I can help. Our relationships and life experiences shape how we see ourselves, how we connect with others, and how we move through the world. In our work together, we’ll slow down, notice the patterns that keep repeating, and get clear on what meaningful change could look like for you, or for the two of you.

My background & approach

I approach therapy with curiosity and an emphasis on understanding the whole person. My goal is to create a warm, collaborative space where individuals and couples feel supported in exploring what matters to them and developing a deeper understanding of themselves and one another.

My professional background is as a physical fitness coach and in healthcare support. That work taught me how closely our physical, emotional, and mental well-being are connected, and I bring that understanding into the therapy room with me.

I earned my B.S. in Psychology from Western Washington University and am currently completing my Master of Science in Marriage & Family Therapy at Seattle Pacific University. As a graduate intern, I see clients under the clinical supervision of Jenny Cooke Malstrom, LMFT, PMH-C.
