Therapists in King County, WA
I've always been drawn to the Serenity Prayer and its timeless significance to everyday life - anywhere - at anytime. Across time I often find my role helping people accept what they cannot change. I help them change what they can through identification of their own resources with any input I can provide through my education, training and experience. Together we collaborate for "wisdom to know the difference." My background as a Social Worker, Child Mental Health Specialist, and Clinical Psychologist has given me the depth and breadth to work with most any challenge brought my way.

As hard as we try to avoid it, pain and suffering creep into our lives and make us feel heavy, stuck, and hopeless. However, it doesn't have to stay that way. Together, we can create a space to heal and grow from the pain you've been carrying. It starts by carefully unpacking your story and the experiences that have brought you here. Then, we will work toward discovering a path to greater hope and freedom. The core of my practice is relational and psychodynamic, and the treatment options I use include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emotion focused therapy (EFT), and narrative therapy.

Psychotherapy involves entering into the stuck places of your life and listening for how you struggle to live freely and authentically. It involves discovering, caring for, and reshaping the parts of your mind that are related to the problems you experience. This may involve learning to recognize unhelpful responses to pain that have themselves evolved into addictive or compulsive behaviors, addressing problematic relational patterns or making room to feel the deep hurts of loss or trauma and learning how to live well with the wounds that have shaped you.

All around us the world has been shifting. Maybe at one point it all made sense: your feelings, sensations, and reactions (even the dark and heightened ones) felt known and even comforting. But now you are looking for a new way to be and a different understanding – a path forward and a way to endure your struggle. If you are someone who believes that each of us know our own wounds, that we possess a strong inner wisdom, and that we have the ability to access the latent potential to grow and change – or, you want to believe – you will find a good fit with me and my therapeutic offerings.

Life is an ongoing journey of growth and opportunity. Throughout these opportunities, we are met with challenges. Often these challenges are the catalyst for the growth opportunities we were not necessarily seeking. I believe it is in these moments that we get to dig deep, transform, and come out on the other side victorious, even if we had to get there kicking and screaming. We are resilient people, and sometimes we need to be reminded of that. My role as a therapist is to support my clients and challenge them to keep putting forth the effort and to claim the victory that is waiting for them on the other side of their challenges.

I am an experienced pragmatic psychotherapist who also does psychological evaluations. My ideal client is one who has self doubts, experiences guilt and shame, yet has potential to be a highly fulfilled person. Such a person may have insecurities in work and relationships, yet be but one step away from doing well in these areas. I have had a wide exposure to a diverse set of problems in living in my career.

Change is difficult and I deeply honor the growing pains that can come with change. It is hard to be uncomfortable, as growth and change happen outside of our comfort zone. Therefore, I also enjoy empowering and supporting clients to find the correct tools that can help foster their wanted growth. I place a high value on working to understand where you come from and your experiences. I am curious to learn about you and create a collaborative relationship with you, so we can work together towards your goals. You are the expert of their own life and I am here to walk alongside you.

Navigating through life’s transitions can be both intimidating and overwhelming – and yet, this discomfort is often an essential step towards growth and positive change. I partner with clients who are feeling stuck in work, school, relationships, or other personal situations, and help them to think critically and often differently.

I help athletes who struggle with anxiety, perfectionism and overthinking. If you have a hard time letting go of mistakes, have overwhelming anxiety and feel like you can never do enough (both in your sport and life), I hear you. I also see a lot of athletes who struggle with body image and their relationship to food. Struggling with anxiety can be overwhelming, exhausting and make life (on and off the court) so much harder than it needs to be. If you want to improve your sport performance without negative or anxious thoughts constantly swirling, I am here to help.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
