About
Meet Sienna Forest
I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist with a warm, curious, and collaborative approach. I specialize in helping individuals and couples heal from relational trauma, people-pleasing patterns, and shame through somatic, nature-based therapy.
My approach blends somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems, Gottman Method, and EMDR with genuine warmth and understanding. I believe therapy is more than just talking—it's an active, embodied process of healing in real time.

You might be wondering...
Yes. I offer secure video sessions for clients in California and Washington. Online therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions for most concerns, and many clients prefer the convenience of meeting from home.
It depends on your goals and what you’re working through. Some people find relief in just a few sessions, while others benefit from longer-term work. We’ll check in regularly to make sure therapy is moving at the right pace for you.
I do not bill insurance directly. I provide superbills (detailed receipts) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. Many PPO plans offer out-of-network benefits. Lower cost fee slots are also available upon inquiry.
The first session is about getting to know each other. We’ll discuss what brings you to therapy, your history, and your goals. It’s also a chance for you to see if you feel comfortable working with me. My approach is warm, curious, and collaborative.
