My mission is to offer therapy that is both scientifically-informed and emotionally attuned. Grounded in mindfulness and informed by attachment, somatic, and behavioral approaches, my work is tailored to the complexity of each individual.
I help clients develop a more compassionate and skillful relationship with their inner world so that meaningful, lasting change becomes possible.
I work with a range of concerns including relational difficulties, anxiety and depression, questions of identity and belonging, and recovery from addictive patterns.
I am the Founder and Director of the Seattle Mindfulness Center, which offers psychotherapy, mindfulness classes, and workshops.
In addition to my private practice, I am affiliate faculty at the University of Washington, where I supervise graduate students in clinical psychology. I am also one of the co-developer of Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention for Addictive Behaviors, a program that integrates mindfulness practices with behavioral approaches for addiction treatment.
