I'm completing my Master's in Couple and Family Therapy, and I see clients at Northwest Relationships under the supervision of Robin Beckley, LMFT, an AAMFT Approved Supervisor. I work with individuals, couples, families, and teens on anxiety, trauma, and family dynamics, including men's issues specifically, an area that doesn't always get its own dedicated focus on a practice roster like this one.

I draw on Gottman Method for couples work, alongside a broader systemic lens that looks at family patterns rather than isolating one person as the source of a conflict. Men's issues, in my experience, often show up less as a stated concern and more sideways, through anger, withdrawal, or difficulty naming emotion directly, and I try to make room for that instead of pushing past it toward more familiar therapeutic language. I'm completing my Master's in Couple and Family Therapy alongside this clinical training.

I think of therapy as mutual engagement, learning, and hope, not something done to you from across the room. I see clients as young as 12, so a family navigating both a teenager's anxiety and a parent's own stress can find support here in one place.

Individuals, couples, and families in Tacoma and statewide looking for affordable, closely supervised help with anxiety, trauma, or men's issues land with me when past therapy felt more like a lecture than a conversation.

At $80 a session, cost shouldn't be the reason this waits, and the intake form takes less time than deciding to fill it out. Every case I carry is reviewed under standard AAMFT-approved supervision, so the lower fee doesn't mean less oversight.
