About Ampersand
We are a compassionate space built on the idea that we are better together.
Rooted in depth-oriented psychodynamic care, we help individuals, couples, and families with curiosity, openness and intention.
Counseling services are available online across Washington State, or in-person on Bainbridge Island or in Issaquah.
A Counseling Collective
Members of the Ampersand Counseling Collective are independently licensed mental health professionals. Each therapist maintains their own individual business but operate together in the spirit of collaboration, participating in weekly consults and share business resources.
Our Therapists
We believe there is always more—more to say, more to uncover, and more to experience.
We’re here to listen closely, ask the hard questions, and stay with you as things unfold.
Not to fix you, but to be with you as you grow.

The Ampersand Symbol
We chose the name Ampersand because it reflects how we see the therapeutic process — never linear, never final — there is always more to explore and engage.
The “&” reminds us that healing is layered, ongoing, and symbolic. It holds space for complexity, ambiguity, and the truths that can live side by side. In a world that often asks us to choose or resolve, the ampersand allows us to stay with the tension, to be present, and to keep unfolding.
It’s a symbol, which means that it represents something slightly different for each person who encounters it. It invites you into your own relationship with it, and our hope is that it also invites you into a deeper relationship with yourself.
