Welcome.
It’s an honor to have you here. I am the owner and primary therapist here at Seity, LLC. This practice has been a labor of love and I’m deeply grateful to be able to share it.
This is my life’s work—my passion. I didn’t always know what it would look like, but I’ve always moved through life and my work with a full heart. I used to believe my role was to eliminate suffering. But after eighteen years of doing this work, I’ve come to see that the joy of life is found in everything—including suffering.
Today, I see myself more as a teacher and a guide. So many of us were never really taught how to “human” well. We believe every thought we have. We resist our emotional experiences. We try to grip and control what cannot be controlled. It’s instinctual to tense around difficulty—but that tension is what creates so much pain.
I help people learn how to fully experience their lives and relationships—to soften, to feel, and to rediscover joy.
And I don’t just teach this—I live it. In order to help others, I’ve had to help myself. That’s why I only share what I’ve truly practiced and integrated. I believe deeply in self-awareness, accountability, and in holding a kind, gentle view of yourself—especially when it’s hardest to do so.
I’m also a meditation and mindfulness teacher, and I’m always delighted—at your request—to incorporate Buddhist psychology and meditation into our work. It’s entirely optional, but in my experience, a meditation practice can make therapy more efficient, more grounded, and often more transformative.
My path in this field began when I fell in love with psychology at an early age, and it’s been evolving ever since.
I’ve walked a bit of a journey in this profession. I started out working with teens and adults and quickly saw that many of their struggles had roots much earlier in life. That realization led me to work with children and adolescents for a number of years. In that time, I saw how much a child’s well-being depends on their parents’ ability to recognize and manage their own experiences.
From there, it became clear that much of that ability depends on the quality of the parents’ relationships—with themselves and with each other. Over time, my work naturally shifted to focus more on those adult dynamics.
These days, I primarily work with couples—supporting them through dating, marriage, parenting, healing from their own childhood wounds, and creating a fulfilling sexual and intimate life.
My ultimate goal as a therapist is to help you recognize that you are an amazing, capable, and loving human being.
The approach I take to this work has a few layers. At its core, it’s contemplative—I use curiosity and introspection to help clients become more aware of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and how these contribute to the places they feel stuck. The healthier our relationship is with these parts of ourselves, the easier they are to navigate.
I place a strong emphasis on accountability, willingness, and compassion. There’s deep value in exploring where your patterns come from—how they were learned, how they’ve protected you, and how they may now be limiting you. This includes understanding the neuroscience behind them. I tailor my therapeutic interventions to support the process of rewiring your brain for greater connection, clarity, and resilience.
Part of my role is to challenge you—to gently poke holes in the unhelpful stories you’ve been telling yourself about who you’re supposed to be, and to hold up an honest, loving mirror so you can see who you truly are.
All of this is to help you see what I see: you, as you are, are enough.
As for my credentials, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, a Licensed Addictions Counselor, and a Certified Sex Therapist.
I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, with a minor in Criminal Justice, before going on to complete a Master of Arts in Counseling. My love for the field kept growing, leading me to pursue a Postgraduate Certificate in Child and Adolescent Counseling. As my experience evolved, so did my interests—and in March 2023, I completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Sex Therapy from Michigan University.
I’ve been in the mental health field for nearly 18 years, working in a wide range of settings both in the U.S. and internationally. It’s been a privilege to serve a diverse range of clients—from youth in juvenile detention, to women in residential treatment, toddlers in outpatient care, families in their homes, and even young adults in the Kingdom of Bhutan.
In recent years, my private practice has become more focused on relationships, working with individuals and couples to navigate connection, healing, and growth.
When I’m not working, you’ll most likely find me in the mountains, reading a great book in the backyard with my family, or doing my own inner work on a yoga mat or meditation cushion.
Through all of my experiences, the greatest lesson I’ve learned is this: no matter where we come from or who we are, we’re all searching for the same thing—happiness. I have a deep passion for this work and wholeheartedly believe in the power of humans to learn, grow, and blossom into their best selves over time. When we feel supported, seen, and understood by another person, our capacity to understand and appreciate ourselves expands.
