I am a Seattle psychotherapist working with the individual, couple, family and adolescent. I have over 20 years of experience treating depression and anxiety, helping with transitions and improving relationships.
Be sure you get the right kind of therapy.
Read about what your first therapy session should be like. Therapists have different theories of what can cause problems in people's lives, and widely different methods of working. Read about my philosophy and approach to therapy to see if I might be a good fit for you. To learn more about my ideas on specific topics, take a look at "Ask the Therapist".
What you can accomplish in therapy:
- Reduce depression and increase contentment
- Lessen anxiety and improve confidence
- Improve relationships and intimacy
- Increase skills in communication, assertiveness and managing emotions
- Overcome self-defeating behaviors
- Navigate difficult periods of adjustment
- Become more effective in solving problems and pursuing goals
