Offering therapy services to individual adults residing in Washington State.
I’m so glad you’re here. As a late-diagnosed ADHDer who’s very familiar with the lived experience of internal hyperactivity, the idea of a calm mind has always felt like such a nice and at times impossible goal. This goal inspired the name Mind Aloe Therapy—where the therapeutic space can act as a salve for the mind. Here, we create a contained, private relational space to bring your full self to the table, imperfections and all. Over time, therapy can help you embrace your humanity and find greater self-acceptance.
I love coming alongside folks as a guide on their therapy journey. My approach is rooted in neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed models of care. This means that while I bring expertise, I believe you are the ultimate expert of your life. I’m here to provide therapeutic knowledge, support, resources, tools, and frameworks—all in collaboration with you. Together, we can create a path toward healing and growth that feels right for you.
Many of my clients would fit in to one or more of these categories. . .
Life Transitions
Starting out in the adult world can feel overwhelming. Whether you’re in college, recently graduated, or navigating a career shift, it’s common to encounter challenges like anxiety, ADHD, trauma, or relationship struggles. Therapy can help you navigate these challenges, understand yourself better, and explore your identity.
Even if you’re further along in life—perhaps in your 30s or 40s—you might find yourself rediscovering a truer version of who you are and desiring support along the way.
Neurodivergence
Being neurodivergent often means confronting negative core beliefs formed after years of hearing messages like, “If you just applied yourself...” Therapy can provide a safe space to unpack these messages, understand your unique strengths, and develop strategies to overcome the obstacles they’ve created. By shifting self-perceptions and embracing your identity, we can work to rewrite the narrative and help you thrive.
Trauma & Negative Core Beliefs
Traumatic experiences and attachment wounds can have a lasting impact on how you relate to yourself and others. If you’re ready to explore and integrate these experiences toward healing, EMDR therapy may be a powerful tool for you. Together, we can process unaddressed trauma and work toward building a sense of safety, connection, and resilience.
