My approach to therapy is both scientifically informed and emotionally attuned. I bring warmth, curiosity, and genuine engagement to my work, drawing on mindfulness, attachment, somatic, and behavioral approaches to meet the unique needs of each individual.

I believe meaningful change involves both developing a more compassionate relationship with ourselves and finding new ways to respond to the patterns that keep us stuck.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-criticism, life transitions, and questions of identity and belonging. My work is collaborative and experiential, helping clients move beyond insight alone to develop new ways of relating to themselves and others.

I am the Founder and Director of the Seattle Mindfulness Center and affiliate faculty at the University of Washington, where I supervise graduate students in clinical psychology. I also co-developed Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention (MBRP), an approach integrating mindfulness and behavioral strategies for addiction treatment.
