A queer therapist in your neighborhood.

Capitol Hill has long been the heart of queer life in Seattle. If you live here, you know that being queer and being okay are not the same thing. Community is real. So is the loneliness inside it. The performance of wellness. The pressure to have healed already. The particular exhaustion of being visibly yourself in a world that still requires it to be a political act.

I am a queer, non-binary therapist practicing in Seattle. I offer depth psychotherapy, not the affirming-but-shallow version where your therapist nods at your identity and then hands you a CBT worksheet. The version where your queerness, your body, your history, your grief, and your longing are all welcome in the room, and none of them are rushed toward resolution.

What I work with

My practice centers on the mother wound, psychedelic integration, and the ache underneath high achievement. Many of my clients are queer, non-binary, or trans people who are carrying something the affirming therapy spaces they have tried could not reach. Attachment wounds. The grief of family estrangement. The mother who could not see you. The exhaustion of performing competence in a world that was not built for you.

I also work with psychedelic integration and microdosing support, tech burnout, childhood emotional neglect, and anxious attachment. I practice from a relational, psychoanalytically-informed, liberatory feminist lens.

Not just affirming. Depth.

LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy is a minimum, not a ceiling. Every therapist should affirm your identity. The question is what happens after the affirmation. Does the work go deeper? Does your therapist understand that your anxiety might be about more than anxious thoughts, that it might live in your body, in your earliest relationships, in the way you learned to hide before you learned to speak?

That is the work I offer. Not just a safe space, but a space where the unsafe things, the grief, the rage, the desire, the confusion, can come out of hiding and be met.

Location and details

I see clients in person in Seattle (near Columbia City and Beacon Hill) and via secure telehealth throughout Washington State. Many Capitol Hill, Central District, and First Hill clients choose telehealth for convenience.

Sessions are $175, held on Fridays, 8 AM to 4 PM. I am out-of-network with insurance and provide superbills.
