Yes. I offer postpartum therapy for women experiencing postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, intrusive thoughts, birth trauma, or NICU-related stress. Even if you’ve always wanted to be a parent, this season can feel overwhelming, lonely, and filled with shame about how you’re “supposed” to feel.

In our work together, we’ll make sense of your emotional and physical experience, gently untangle anxiety and self-blame, and help you reconnect to your own needs, values, and intuition. I offer postpartum counseling in Bellevue and online therapy across Washington State, so you can get support in a way that fits your reality as a new parent.

Yes. A core part of my practice is therapy for perimenopause and women’s life transitions. I work with women navigating hormone changes, mood shifts, anxiety, sleep disturbance, identity changes, and relationship stress during perimenopause and midlife.

We’ll look at both your nervous system and your story—how cultural expectations, caregiving roles, body image, and aging messages shape your experience. Together, we’ll create tools for emotional regulation, boundary-setting, and self-compassion so you can move through perimenopause feeling more rooted, informed, and empowered. I offer perimenopause therapy in Bellevue, WA and via telehealth throughout Washington.

I offer couples therapy and marriage counseling in Bellevue, WA and online for partners across Washington. I work with couples navigating communication breakdowns, conflict cycles, intimacy issues, parenting stress, faith or value shifts, perimenopause, and major life transitions.

My approach focuses on both the relationship and each individual within it. We’ll look at your patterns, attachment needs, and family-of-origin stories, and we’ll build skills for more honest communication, repair after conflict, and mutual respect. Whether you’re trying to rebuild trust, decide how to move forward, or deepen connection, couples therapy can offer a structured space to grow together.

Yes. I specialize in faith transition therapy and religious trauma counseling for adults, couples, and families—especially those with Mormon / post-Mormon / LDS backgrounds or experiences in high-control religious environments. I am a member of the Mormon Mental Health Association—an organization whose mission is to offer ethical, research-based, and culturally competent services to clients in connection to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

If you’re questioning or leaving a faith tradition, you might feel grief, fear, shame, anger, or confusion about who you are now. In therapy, we’ll make room for all of it: honoring what was meaningful, working through what was harmful, and exploring what you want your life, relationships, and spirituality (or secular values) to look like now. I offer faith transition therapy in Bellevue and telehealth across Washington in a way that is non-judgmental, compassionate, and trauma-informed.

I focus on therapy for women navigating:

• Perimenopause and hormonal transitions

• Postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety

• Identity shifts and life transitions (career, empty nest, divorce, faith shifts)

• People-pleasing, burnout, and emotional labor

• Body image, HAES-aligned care, and recovery from diet culture

• Relationship stress, marriage concerns, and family dynamics

In my work, I pay close attention to the systems around you—gender roles, beauty standards, patriarchy, religion, family expectations—and how they impact your mental health. Together we’ll reconnect you to your inner voice, boundaries, and sense of purpose.

Yes. In addition to in-person sessions in Bellevue, I offer online therapy (telehealth) for adults and couples anywhere in Washington State. Telehealth can be especially helpful for busy parents, women in perimenopause or postpartum, clients in rural areas, or anyone who needs flexible access to care.

Online sessions are held via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform. We’ll treat telehealth as thoughtfully as in-person work—creating a stable, private space where you can process anxiety, grief, identity changes, relationship issues, and faith transitions from the comfort of your own home.

Most of my clients find me when they’re tired of holding everything together—feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in people-pleasing, or disoriented by a major life change such as perimenopause, postpartum, a faith shift, or an emptying nest.

If you’re looking for a therapist who will:

• See you in context (not just as an “individual problem”)

• Honor your story, culture, and identities

• Help you understand why patterns keep repeating

• Offer tools for anxiety, burnout, and nervous system regulation

• Support you in building boundaries and a more authentic life

…there’s a good chance we’ll be a fit. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can ask questions, get a feel for my style, and see if working together feels right.

Yes. I offer family therapy for adults, including parents and adult children, siblings, or other relatives with a close, ongoing relationship. I often work with families navigating:

• Faith transitions and religious differences

• Perimenopause or midlife changes and how they impact the family

• Adult children individuating and parents adjusting to new roles

• Long-standing patterns of conflict, silence, or emotional distance

In family therapy, we’ll look at the system as a whole—how each person’s coping strategies and history interact, and how to create new patterns of communication, understanding, and mutual respect. Sessions can be in-person in Bellevue or online across Washington.

Yes. My practice is queer-affirming, trans-affirming, and inclusive. I work with LGBTQ+ clients individually and within couples and families, and I’m especially mindful of how religious trauma, cultural expectations, and systemic oppression affect mental health, relationships, and identity.

Whether you’re exploring sexuality or gender, navigating coming out, managing family or faith community reactions, or simply wanting a therapist who understands the impact of oppression on your nervous system and relationships, this is a space where all of you is welcome.

While I don’t expect clients to speak in therapy jargon, it can be helpful to know how I work. My approach is holistic and systemic, drawing from:

• Narrative, story-based work

• Parts work (similar to Internal Family Systems)

• Attachment and relational frameworks

• Trauma-informed and nervous-system-aware practices

• A feminist, culturally sensitive, and deconstructive lens

In plain language, this means we’ll look at your story, your relationships, your body, and the systems around you. I won’t just give you quick fixes; we’ll work together to understand the deeper roots of your patterns and support sustainable change.
