Anxious Attachment Therapy in Seattle, WA

Online Therapy for Seattle Women Who Overthink, Over-Give, and Over-Function

Seattle has a culture of thoughtfulness: introspective, analytical, and quietly high-achieving. For a lot of women here, that shows up in relationships as an endless internal commentary: Do they like me? Why haven’t they responded yet? Am I too much? How do I play it cool?

The women I work with in Seattle are often self-aware enough to see their patterns. They've read about anxious attachment, they know what people-pleasing looks like, they understand intellectually why they keep doing what they do. But understanding it and actually changing it are two different things. That gap between knowing and feeling, between insight and relief is where therapy comes in.

I offer online therapy throughout Washington for women navigating anxious attachment, relationship anxiety, life transitions, and the lasting emotional weight of growing up with a narcissistic or emotionally unavailable parent. Sessions are virtual, which means you can connect from your home in Capitol Hill, Ballard, or anywhere in the state, no commute, no parking, no adding more to your day than necessary.

What Brings Seattle Women to Therapy

The women I work with in Seattle often have similar stories, even when the details differ. They've built lives they're proud of: meaningful work, close friendships, real accomplishments. And there's still this thing they can't quite fix: the relationship patterns that repeat, the anxiety that surfaces in the in-between moments, the way someone else's mood can completely hijack their own sense of calm.

Some are processing complicated family histories: a mother who was critical or emotionally withholding or overly enmeshed, a father who was larger than life in ways that required constant management, a childhood where the child somehow ended up being responsible for the parent's emotional state. These dynamics are more common than most women realize, and their effects don't resolve on their own just because you've grown up and built distance.

Others are at an inflection point: a relationship that's ending or evolving, a career shift, their early 30s looking different from what they imagined, a loss that's made everything feel less certain. Life transitions are one of the most common reasons women come to therapy, not because a transition is wrong, but because it tends to surface everything that was already there.

Working With Women Across Washington State

Online therapy removes a lot of the friction that keeps women from starting therapy: the commute, the scheduling, the sense that finding the right person is too complicated. I work with women throughout Washington: Seattle, Bellevue, Tacoma, Kirkland, Olympia, Spokane, Yakima, and beyond via secure video sessions.

I work Monday through Thursday and have a mix of morning, afternoon, and evening availability. If you've been telling yourself you'll find a therapist when things calm down, I'd gently push back on that; things rarely calm down on their own, and you don't have to be in crisis to deserve support.
