Transformative Therapy for queers, creatives, grief-carriers, deep feelers, in Seattle and Washington State.

Therapy for those questioning how to live with courage, clarity, and connectedness in this “bruti-iful” chaos and life.

Hi, I’m August

You're looking for more than copingright? You want true change.

I will work alongside you to help you feel more rooted within yourself, foster steadiness, and awaken to what truly matters. With time, this process can help you create a life that feels like home—authentic and truly alive.

I work with adults (21+), relationships of all forms, and trans teens

Most of the folks who find me identify as female or non-binary. I also hold space for men— wrestling with questions around masculinity and loneliness.

Most are moving through something—grief, illness, identity shifts, transitions that shake the ground a little (or a lot).

I have a particular affinity and experience with folks navigating a world that resists complexity and asks people to shrink when they’re already whole, including…

  • religious or spiritual trauma.

  • Grief of many kinds, including the death of a parent, new or decades ago

  • A profound shift in how they know themselves and the world.

  • Artists and creatives, whether by profession or simply how their heart works.

  • Disabled folks and people who live with chronic illness.

I’m drawn to the deep stuff:

the ache of uncertainty, the tenderness of loss, the strange beauty of becoming.

Weather your coming to therapy because something isn’t working—because your in pain, because something’s changed, or because your carrying things you can’t keep carrying alone…

You don’t have to face it alone.

Even if therapy hasn’t helped before, our work together can be different. Together, we can untangle what feels overwhelming, find solid ground, and move toward real change—and toward a life that feels more possible, more hopeful, and more your own.
