I believe that we all have stories that we carry with us.  Some of these stories build us up and some bring us down. I also believe that we are relational beings who are trying to maintain an individual identity as well as the identity we hold in relationship.

​

My own story of brought me to Seattle from the Deep South where I received my Masters in Couples and Family Therapy from Seattle University. I started my journey toward AASECT Certification and Developmental Model training right after school because I am passionate about working with couples and sex therapy. My own story has been filled with personal grief of past self, sadness of friendships evolving, joy of the life I am in now, connection with my body (healing from years of an eating disorder and having a few autoimmunes), and working to find more authentic relationships with the people in my life.

​

Living in Tacoma with my husband and very energetic border collie-lab Dublin, my life is full of community, reading, moving my body, yoga, gardening, art/crafting, EPL and soccer, Bravo, travel, seeing movies at The Grand and cooking.

​

I share this to say, you're not alone and I see us all as human trying to find connection and feel whole in ourselves. If you think we'd be a good fit, reach out for a consultation call.

Kindly,

Allie Peyton, LMFT, CST
