Your somewhere in your 20’s and some truths have come to light. No longer beholden to your family, you suddenly realize that some of your patterns aren’t working anymore. You know you aren’t willing to settle for the status quo, but you have no idea where to even start. Some questions that have likely popped up in your mind might be, “Was that normal in my family?” “What now?” “Who the hell am I?” “Is this where the world is heading?”. If this is you, I get you. One of the greatest gifts you can give to yourself is a space in which these questions can find their answers, or at the very least resolutions. I have always been in awe of individuals who courageously make changes to their lives, not because they have to, but because they must. You don’t have to do this alone. Let’s work together and figure some shit out! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bde26f850a54fed220f9556/1aa05fc6-4a66-4be9-82c5-825a06f35d04/image-asset.jpg Home - The Survivor I know what it’s like to be brought to your knees.

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I understand the challenges we face, especially right now with what is happening in our society.

(She/her) With over 15 years of working in the social services and mental health profession, I have come to realize that what we are all looking for is safety, respect, and connection. My most favorite aspect of therapy is the way it changes and transforms both people in the room. A word I’ve found to best describe therapy is: relationship. Not only are we changing our relationship to ourselves, we get a beautiful opportunity to create a new kind of relationship with the people around us. The relationship you and I create together in the room is sacred. It can offer you so many moments to be brave, vulnerable, and find new ways to unlearn patterns that you don’t need anymore. Outside of being a therapist, I am a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community. I am a reader of books and petter of cats. I also love spending time with my wife and two kitties, collecting treasures on the beach, trying out new recipes, and nurturing my garden to grow and sprout. I received my M.A in Counseling Psychology from Saybrook University, and my B.A in Sociology from Portland State University. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Washington: LH61374868. https://www.sagetherapyseattle.com/contact-1 daily 0.75 2025-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bde26f850a54fed220f9556/1544405235287-RNJAW7IL0FJ0YXYKNEPU/GettyImages-835772204.jpg Contact https://www.sagetherapyseattle.com/resources daily 0.75 2025-03-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bde26f850a54fed220f9556/1545977779063-9N22KBIQO8B0UC7RD1VJ/IMG_0978.JPG Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bde26f850a54fed220f9556/1577646521956-EAHVBDT5ACKLMTQ76V9O/image-asset.jpeg Resources - Books I Recommend: Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving.
