• My practice is a good fit for people who want to do long-term work and recognize that quick fixes are often temporary. I enjoy walking along side patients on their journey offering a balance of:

    • guidance with autonomy

    • structure with adaptability

    • compassion with pragmatism

    • science and evidence with creativity

    • education with being taught

    I am a good fit for those who struggle to separate or contain parts of themselves from their whole when they see specialists. My approach is relational and blended with curiosity to understand.

  • Currently, I only offer virtual telehealth visits. I hope to offer in-person visits 1-2 days per week in the future.

  • Tele-medicine is available to those living in the state of Washington. Tele-education is available to those living outside of Washington. Learn more at the bottom of my services page.

  • Yes, prescribing medications is within my scope of practice in the state of Washington, except for controlled substances, such as stimulants. Medication decisions are made thoughtfully and collaboratively, with attention to risks, benefits, alternatives, and your preferences.

  • Learn more about my fee structure on my fees page.

  • I ask for 24 hours of advance notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations and missed appointments may be subject to a fee. Full details are provided at the time of scheduling.

  • No, as a small virtual practice, I do not provide emergency or crisis services. I do not maintain an on-call phone or provide 24/7 crisis coverage. If you are experiencing an emergency, thoughts of self-harm, or are in immediate danger, please call 911, go to the nearest emergency room, call 988 - the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, or your local emergency contact.

    I do address protective factors, risk factors, and safety plans, and will coordinate care.
