Specialities

Neurodiversity-affirming therapy is designed for adolescents and adults with ADHD, autism, executive functioning challenges, or sensory and emotional regulation difficulties, as well as those navigating trauma or complex emotional experiences. This approach focuses on strengths, lived experience, and individual neurotype rather than trying to “fix” differences.

We provide a comprehensive, integrative approach to treating the intersection of ADHD and trauma, focusing on the belief that healing occurs through the alignment of mind, body, and spirit. My practice is grounded in Humanistic Psychology, prioritizing a strengths-based perspective that shifts the focus from "what is wrong with you" to "what is right with you." To address the physiological signatures of trauma and the executive functioning challenges of ADHD, I utilize Somatic Psychology and Yoga Therapy, helping clients track nervous system states and develop interoceptive awareness. This is further supported by Energy Psychology and Hypnotherapy, which work with the subconscious and energetic body to release stored tension and reframe limiting beliefs.

To assist with cognitive regulation and narrative identity, I incorporate:

• Narrative Therapy: To externalize the "Problem" (like ADHD or Trauma) and re-author your life story.

• Buddhist Psychology: Utilizing mindfulness and contemplative philosophies to find stillness amidst internal chaos.

• Meaning-Centered Therapy: To help you discover purpose and "Unique Outcomes" even within difficult experiences.

• Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) & Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Providing structured tools for task initiation, emotional regulation, and challenging cognitive distortions.

Clinical hypnotherapy is a therapeutic approach that accesses the subconscious mind to support habit change, trauma processing, emotional regulation, and self-understanding. Our hypnotherapy sessions are safe, trauma-informed, and fully client-directed, helping you uncover and transform underlying beliefs while integrating new insights consciously.

Neurodevelopmental assessments evaluate emotional and executive functioning, developmental history, and daily life challenges. We provide comprehensive ADHD, Autism, and AuDHD assessments for teens and adults in Woodinville and via telehealth. Assessments are strengths-based, trauma-informed, and practical, producing a clear roadmap for therapy, accommodations, and personal growth.

Yes, I specialize in helping adults navigate religious trauma, spiritual abuse, and the complex process of deconstructing high-control belief systems. My approach is designed to help you reclaim your autonomy and rebuild a sense of safety within your own body and mind.

Healing from religious trauma involves safely untangling your identity from high-control beliefs to reclaim your personal agency and somatic trust. I support this journey through a two-fold process of deconstruction and reconstruction:

• Deconstructing Shaming Narratives: We work to identify and release internalized "fear-based" or "purity culture" messages that may still be causing anxiety or hyper-vigilance in your nervous system.

• Somatic Reclamation: Because religious trauma often teaches us to distrust our bodies, we use somatic tools to help you reconnect with your intuition and establish healthy, firm boundaries.

• Building an Autonomous Path: Whether you are moving toward a secular life or a new, self-defined "cosmic" spirituality, I help you construct a foundation based on your own values, strengths, and authentic joy.

Recovery is not just about what you are leaving behind; it is about the freedom to choose what you carry forward.
