Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a licensed therapist in Washington State, with more than 10 years experience. I provide therapy in English and Spanish. I have worked with a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, low self-esteem, grief/loss, ADHD. I have also helped many who have experienced physical trauma (i.e. injury), physical, sexual and emotional abuse.
My counseling style is strengths-based and person centered, which means I see you as the expert of your life, while I assist and guide you through your healing journey towards joy and freedom. I believe in treating you with respect, sensitivity, inclusivity and compassion. My therapy approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy and solution focused therapy to accomplish your therapy goals. I will tailor therapy to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes strength and courage to seek for and take steps towards healing, joy and freedom. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to participating in this journey with you!

Many people ask whether therapy delivered online can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes, research and practice support that online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is flexibility – people can connect in the way that fits their schedule and comfort level, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability often makes it easier to maintain regular sessions and integrate therapy into a busy life.
Online therapy is provided by licensed professionals and therapists, and if a different fit is desired, clients generally have the option to switch providers. For many, remote therapy offers an accessible and practical path to addressing everyday mental health needs.
