About Me
Why Undivided?
I chose the name Undivided Therapy because I believe that what we do in therapy extends beyond ourselves. When we have space to bring healing to the disconnection within ourselves and our families, we are empowered to create less division in our communities and our world.
Experience & Training
I’m a licensed therapist with training in individual, couple, and family therapy. My education is in systemic therapy, which means I see people within the many relationships and contexts they’re a part of - family, culture, community, and society. I believe our struggles and strengths are best understood when we consider these broader contexts. My clinical training specialized in Internal Family Systems Therapy, and I have also received supplemental training in social justice and multicultural competence.
I have over 6 years of experience working in mental health. My journey began working in community mental health agencies and shelters, supporting people experiencing crisis and navigating complex life challenges and/or unstable housing. These early roles, and the people that I had the privilege to meet in them, shaped me both personally and professionally. Through this work, I came to clearly see how the systems we live in and the trauma we carry are so often at the root of feeling lost and disconnected.
During my clinical training I had the opportunity to provide equine-assisted therapy. This experience laid the foundation for much of the somatic work I now incorporate. It also gave me an appreciation for conducting therapy in a peaceful space that connects us to nature. Though I now live and work in an urban environment, this experience inspired me to choose a lakeside office where we can sit, walk, or simply take in the view together.
In 2025 I opened Undivided Therapy where I have been able to combine my past experiences to serve diverse communities in Seattle.
Values & Approach
I’m committed to serving all people in my community with openness, respect and accountability. I hold identity at the center of my work, honoring the importance of culture, ethnicity, race, gender, sexuality, class, financial situation, and lived experience. As a therapist who works with people from all backgrounds, I recognize that our differences can shape how we understand and experience the world. I’ll often name those dynamics when they arise, and invite open conversation about how we want to navigate them together.
Therapy Modalities
I draw from trauma-informed, evidence-based, and experiential modalities, tailoring my approach to each person I work with.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
To explore the many parts of you, and build more trust and integration within. IFS is an evidence-based approach for working with trauma.
Family Systems Theories
To understand ourselves and our families as interconnected units—where each person’s behaviors, emotions, and roles influence the whole system. Through this systemic understanding, we can grow in connection, flexibility and resilience.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
To support regulating emotions, tolerating really hard realities, and practicing being in your present moment (which is not easy!)
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT)
To help partners identify, express, and respond to each other’s emotional needs. This evidence-based theory focuses on the ways that patterns of disconnection and insecurity create distress in relationships.
Experiential Models
To go beyond words and heal through experiencing something different in therapy (which may include standing up, moving your body, utilizing improv or role plays, etc.)
Somatic Approaches
To notice how the body holds and responds to stress, emotion, and memory. Growing this kind of body-based awareness can support you in feeling more at home in your body, especially when life experiences have made this feel impossible.
When you’re looking for a therapist, it’s important that you get a sense that it’s a good fit. Reach out for a low-pressure conversation to explore if working together could be right for you. I am passionate about connecting people to resources in their community. If working with me is not the right fit, I know other incredible therapists and I will do my best to point you in the right direction.
