Less Spiraling. More Grounding.

About

Welcome! My name is Emily Altobelli and I am an anxiety and trauma-informed Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LMHCA) at Sonder Psychotherapy in the Greater Seattle area. I offer LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent affirming therapy for anyone experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional burnout, low self-esteem, life transitions, or relationship challenges.

Together, we’ll make space for your whole story – the good, the difficult, especially the parts that may have been misunderstood or dismissed. We’ll look at the patterns keeping you stuck, challenge the thoughts making things harder, and explore coping skills to fit your life.

I often use a somatic approach that focuses on the mind-body mindfulness. Trauma doesn’t just live in our memories – it often shows up as tension, stress, or feeling constantly on edge. If you’re looking for a supportive space to slow down, process what you’ve been carrying, and make sense of things – I’d love to work with you.
