Business Description

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us- Tolkien

It can be hard to know how to ‘human’ when faced with the realities of our existence, but you don’t have to search for the answers alone. You are not alone- many people are struggling to find something that will restore a sense of self, of belonging, purpose, and connection. I see the critical role of power, privilege, and oppression in our lives, particularly as it relates to mental health, trauma, well-being, access to resources, and ability to live fully and authentically.

I am here to support you in finding those missing pieces of your life and self.

Current availability is via Telehealth. Accepting Premera or Likewise Insurance. Please inquire

We will combine your knowledge of yourself and my knowledge of healing to create a path to the life and relationships you have been searching for. I offer a safe, inclusive, and judgement-free space where together, we can revisit your past, change your present, and create your best future.

My approach is a good fit for those struggling with anxiety, identity, low self-esteem, self-criticism, grief, depression, relationship distress, post-trip psychedelic integration, and life transitions. I offer EMDR for both Big-T and Little-t trauma.

I have experience working with: Young Adults, Adults, Elders, Women, Men, Non-Binary, People in Recovery, LGBTQIA++, BIPOC, Latinx, Expats/Digital Nomads, Creatives and Entrepreneurs, Witchy Folk/Pagan/Heathens and other major world religions.

I work with psychedelic integration therapy for those who have had experiences with psychedelic substances or who are undergoing Ketamine treatments in WA and  would like to process their experiences in session. (Please note I *do not* provide any illegal substances or legal prescriptions,  nor can I refer you to anyone who offers illegal services, nor can I offer sessions for those in a currently altered state of mind)

Inclusive and Welcoming to All.

About me:
I got a BA in History from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in medieval history and so promptly became a full-time server and bartender, eventually working in fine dining for several years. I decided to take a big jump and moved abroad to Prague (2 years) and then to Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam (3 years) before returning to the USA to get my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Care in Seattle, WA.
My experiences and desire to give back to the world in a meaningful way led me to the field of mental health counseling, In Seattle, I volunteered with a homeless shelter for teens and young adults and with Crisis Connections, a suicide and crisis hotline. I worked at a community mental health agency and facilitated an LGBTQ support group and an Art for Coping support group, as well working with clients individually. I started my own private practice in November 2021.

Outside of my role as a counselor & coach, I am a  witchy-type cat lady who loves sci-fi and fantasy, cooking, and traveling as much as possible. She/Her/Hers.
