Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
IBD is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the intestines. The most common types of IBD are Crohns Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. IBS is a functional gastrointestinal condition where there’s overactive neural communication between the brain and gut causing bowel symptoms like diarrhea and constipation. Gut issues are common and also carry stigma that other chronic illnesses do not! I aim to provide a safe, educational space where clients can process gut issues and learn more about the nervous system.

FAQs
Where is your office?
I am fully virtual, and can see clients all across WA state. Jaw release therapy will be available in person in Seattle in Summer 2026!
Do you accept insurance?
No, but I do provide superbills for clients to submit for insurance reimbursement. Please ask your insurance provider about out-of-network benefits to estimate the costs for care!
Do you offer a sliding scale for therapy services?
I reserve a portion of my caseload for low-cost therapy. I offer three cost tiers for clients to self-select into:
Tier 1: $60/$80 (full)
Tier 2: $110/$130 (limited availability)
Tier 3: $170/$185 (available)
How often would we schedule a therapy session?
I work with clients on a weekly or biweekly basis.
Why should I see a relational therapist?
Couple and family therapists have uniquely systemic perspectives on humans and relationships. Even if you want to work through individual issues, my training considers cultural and family influences that shape your experience – giving us a more holistic framework.
Can you consult with my other medical providers?
Yes, I am happy to collaborate with other professionals (doctor, gastroenterologist, psychiatrist, etc.) if it benefits your care!
I’m chronically ill, what if I have to unexpectedly miss a therapy session?
I created my policies with chronically ill clients in mind and aim to provide flexibility when possible. Clients can reschedule their sessions within the same week for no charge and all clients get 3 free cancellations they can use at any time. Also, I offer low-demand sessions for clients who are able to attend therapy but need accommodations. Options may include: turning off cameras, laying down during a session, using the chat feature only, coloring, ending a session early, or guided meditation.
